About Us

“Taking the Fear Out of Tax and Accountancy”

Barnstone is a family-run accountancy practice with a difference. We provide a wide range of tax and accountancy services from the comfort of our converted barn, and although we are located 5 miles away from Oakham in Rutland and 8 miles away from Stamford in Lincolnshire our client portfolio is spread across the whole country ranging from Slough in Berkshire to Newcastle. This tranquil, rural setting allows us to offer an ideal environment to discuss your finances in complete confidence. We believe in taking a more personal approach to consultations so that we can tailor solutions to your specific needs. Our relaxed atmosphere and honest, jargon-free approach means we can really get to know you and your business, either over a cup of tea in a comfy chair or, as is more the case nowadays, via a video conference call.  

Getting to know you…  

We like to be on first-name terms with our clients to provide a friendly, stress-free and straightforward conversation, with the focus on open communication and attention to detail. That way, we can be more proactive in delivering you excellence and convenience at every turn, making your business affairs less labour intensive. We’ve been doing things our way since 2009, putting decades of industry experience to good use. In that time, we have built up a diverse client portfolio, ranging from SME’s and sole traders to large companies with complex requirements. We also assist private individuals such as retirees and pensioners with personal taxation matters. We use our trusted skills and critical knowledge to take the hard work out of your financial affairs. From taxation to bookkeeping, accountancy to payroll, we are here to give you peace of mind while helping your business to thrive.   

Care & support for all our Clients

If an important deadline is approaching, we will warn you well in advance to avoid any unpleasant surprises. We also keep you updated on any tax, financial and industry-specific changes that may impact your business and we can support you to adopt and comply with the changes. With our comprehensive list of professional services, the more you entrust to us, the more we can keep the costs down, so you never pay more than is necessary.

What our Clients say about us:

“Your company has made all aspects of our accounts simpler, more efficient and very much less stressfull. I am very happy with the system you apply to our payroll, my personal tax and all my invoices and payments to suppliers.

Barnstone has helped me to meet all security requirements and also has been an extremely supportive business advisor. I could not have embarked upon the next phase of our business growth without the critical knowledge, support and friendly personal approach of Barnstone Accountancy and Management.”
