Parents seeking to relocate close to one of Bath’s esteemed schools are receiving additional support through a collaboration with Otters Home Search. The home search consultancy has revealed a new partnership with Kingswood School, where it will serve as the exclusive relocation agent.
Otters Home Search, co-founded by Abbie Long and Francesca Watson, will specialize in aiding families moving to Bath in finding residences near the school. Both Abbie and Francesca have enrolled their children at Kingswood School, with Francesca having attended school in Bath and grown up in nearby Beckington.
In addition to launching a dedicated relocation area on the Kingswood School website and contributing their expertise to the school’s Open Days and celebratory events, Otters Home Search will co-host a Bath Property Networking Event on September 18. Local property professionals will be invited to tour the school.

Francesca expressed, “Families decide to relocate to the West Country for a number of reasons: the high-quality and affordable education, the desire for a slower pace of life, or the charm of historic cities like Bath. We understand that finding the right school for your child is a key focus for every family.
“As two people who have experienced Kingswood first-hand, benefiting from its nurturing, inclusive approach, we’re delighted to assist Kingswood parents in discovering their perfect home within the wonderful community that is Bath.”
Abbie added, “With children who have been at Kingswood since nursery, I know the school, its ethos, and culture incredibly well. So, partnering with Kingswood and its parents feels like a very natural step. We’ll draw on our personal and professional experience to help everyone, from those moving in the area to those relocating from the South East or overseas. We’re also keen to extend the Kingswood welcome through our work – we’re committed to being approachable, warm, and encouraging.”
Andrew Gordon-Brown, headmaster at Kingswood School, noted, “Partnering with Otters Home Search offers us a terrific opportunity to be part of the support network for families relocating to the Bath area, as we understand the pressures of moving into a new area and looking at schools. We are proud of the education we offer here at Kingswood, in service of our vision of holistic, well-rounded, and modern education that transforms lives.”
