Worked with Ciaran on my personal tax return. I'm clueless, and he was very careful to guide me through the process and explain it as we went through. Strongly recommend him, and therefore Barcant Beardon.

The team are friendly, helpful and have always made us feel like valued clients. We would recommend Barcant Beardon to anyone looking for a supportive, efficient and experienced accountancy firm.

I have used Barcant Beardon for over 25 years, firstly as trustee of a small charity, and then as a worker for a cooperative consultancy. When I went freelance Barcant Beardon did my accounts and tax for 15 years and they continue to do my personal tax and get me any tax rebates due. In all these years they have provided a brilliant service. What I like about them most is their clear explanation of what they do and their recommendations about how to improve the business. I thoroughly recommend them.

When I finished my degree and started working I chose Barcant Beardon based on a recommendation from a friend. They have been my accountants ever since and my experience with them has been simply wonderful. Barcant Beardon have not only been incredibly knowledgable but also terribly organised, helpful and friendly. I find them to be highly competent, professional and amazingly efficient. Any of my queries are being responded to immediately and my accounts and returns are being prepared promptly and accurately. I have and would recommend them any time!
