azing across the skyline of Chicago from the 360 Chicago Observation Deck, 1000 feet above the famed Magnificent Mile, I can’t believe my road trip across Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois is drawing to an end. The sun is being swallowed by the horizon, its orange glow a thin line, as the city lights twinkle on and it’s with a sigh I return to ground level.

Nearly two weeks ago, I landed in Minneapolis, home of the Walker Art Center and the iconic Spoonbridge and Cherry sculpture. I browsed the city like a book, making the most of spring-like days, exploring Mill Ruins Park and roaming the skybridges connecting buildings. All too soon it was time for me to check out of my atmospheric abode at the Hewing Hotel and move on, filling the gaps in my oversized suitcase with tax-free clothing and shoes from the many stores at Mall of America, my favourite place to shop.

The port-city of Duluth, Minnesota’s third-largest metropolis after the Twin Cities, is made for drinking, whether it’s at the Duluth Coffee Company, where coffee is roasted to order, or Fitgers Brewery, one of the six brewers that call this city home. If whiskey, vodka or gin is your tipple, Vikre Distillery obliges. This boutique outfit uses local grains, foraged wild botanicals, handcrafted Minnesota oak barrels, and the clean, cold water of Lake Superior to brilliant effect. Sampling the flavours in the Distillery Cocktail Room is a highlight, equalled only by roasting marshmallows for smores, a peculiar concoction of sweet crackers sandwiched around melted marshmallows and chocolate. Stay at Pier B hotel on the waterfront, collect your smore kit from the front desk, and head to the firepit, with views of the Aerial Lift Bridge, for a unique Duluth experience.

I left at sunrise, watching pink and orange hues glow across the frozen water of Lake Superior. Driving through the Superior National Forest to the northern enclave of Ely, the trees sparkled with a dusting of snow, deer grazing in the undergrowth. Ely is the gateway for the Boundary Waters, a vast network of waterways within a glacially-carved landscape stretching to the Canadian border. Crossing a small river, I spy fisherman tramping across the thick layer of ice, the lure of walleye and trout compensating for the frigid air. It’s not just fish that abound here – beavers, eagles, bears and moose can all be spotted, if you’re lucky. It’s also wolf country, with the International Wolf Centre teaching visitors about these handsome, often misunderstood, creatures.

In summer, canoe enthusiasts flock to Ely. In winter, watersports give way to dog-sledding, the frozen water a perfect, white playground. Gliding across the ice with my own dog team in the wake of my Wintergreen guide, I’m awed by the power and enthusiasm of the Canadian Inuit Dogs that are my engine. Come evening, I watch the sun set from the warmth of my spacious cabin at Timber Trail Lodge. The air is still and quiet, a moment of peace so perfect it leaves me breathless.

A new day brings a new state, as I drive to Canoe Bay, in the heart of Wisconsin. Set within 300 acres of beautiful hardwood forest with three spring-fed, glacially carved lakes, the cottages at this Relais & Châteaux property are stunning, positioned discreetly apart, with decks looking out to a lake. This is a place for strolling, relaxing in the library, and fine-dining in the lakeside dining room.

Wisconsin Dells is a stark contrast. The southern city on the Wisconsin River sports its fair share of beautiful, ➤➤

glacier-carved sandstone formations, but the “Waterpark Capital of the World’s” numerous theme parks and entertainment centres encourage you to unleash your inner child. The largest waterpark, at Kalahari Resort, features 125,000 square feet of wet and wild indoor fun.

early twentieth-century American town; a 200-foot model of a whale; a collection of automatic music machines; and an Infinity Room that juts 218 feet over the forest, without supports. Several hours after entering, I stumble into daylight, in sensory overload.

All that water leaves me craving seafood, so I indulge at The Del Bar. The “Prairie-style” ambiance was created by James Dresser, a protégé of Frank Lloyd Wright and the menu is a delight. I feast on oysters in the half shell, seared sea scallops in a delectable Moscato reduction, and an organic apple salad, with mixed greens, dried cranberries, walnuts and blue cheese. A raspberry mango dreamsicle, composed of sorbet, ice-cream and heavy cream, is a fitting finale.

Arriving in the historic town of Galena, I check in to a Victorian-style room at the DeSoto House Hotel, the oldest operating hotel in Illinois. It’s a great base for exploring Galena’s Main Street, boasting examples of architectural styles ranging from French Colonial to Greek Revival.

Across the river, the Italianate former home of General Ulysses S. Grant, the 18th US President, is open to the public and at the Galena & U.S. Grant Museum, a hologram of the man himself welcomes visitors. A short drive away, the Soaring Eagle Zip Line at Chestnut Mountain takes punters high above the mountain’s peak for an birds-eye view of the Upper Mississippi River Valley.

Returning to Sundara Inn and Spa, a relaxation haven in a 26acre pine forest, I collect a small tub of Sundara Sandstone Body Polish and complete the Purifying Bath Ritual, a fivestep self-guided treatment to cleanse the skin and clear the mind. Replete, I relax in my suite, anticipating the morning massage I’ve booked before departing.

My path to Galena, over the Illinois border, takes me by two of Wisconsin’s quirkiest attractions. Dr Evermor’s Sculpture Park is an extraordinary collection of artwork by Tom Every, created from industrial salvage. The centrepiece is the Forevertron, the largest scrap metal sculpture in the world. It’s surrounded by an eclectic selection of beautifully crafted birds, each showing distinct character, space-age insects, and fantastical machines. I leave overwhelmed by the creative genius on display.

Tom Every also had a hand in the creation of the House on the Rock, providing salvage for Alex Jordan’s imaginationpacked retreat. Wrapped around Deer Shelter Rock, this place defies description. The whimsical displays include the world’s largest indoor carousel; a re-creation of an

For a small town, Galena has an impressive array of dining options, from healthy home cooking at Otto’s Place to juicy steaks at the Log Cabin Steakhouse and modern American dining at Fried Green Tomatoes.

Dishes can be washed down with a pint of Guinness at The Irish Cottage, or one of the many beverages at Root Beer Revelry.

My penultimate destination is Starved Rock Lodge, in the State Park of the same name. This is one of those places that offers a bit of everything: hiking; relaxation in the cosy massage cabin; jaunts into nearby Ottawa, with a Himalayan Salt Cave at Salt Tree Yoga; and the August Hill Winery & Illinois Sparkling Co. Tasting Room in Utica, where you can sample varietals from the region. In the evening, I step outside to perch on the Stargazer, a statue of a figure observing the night sky, startling a raccoon snuffling around the grounds. One night is simply not enough.

I fell in love with Chicago on my first visit, and despite a chilly wind swirling through the city, that affection hasn’t waned. It has an arty vibe, with the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the changing art programme within Millennium Park, not to mention Cloud Gate, more commonly known as The Bean, and scattered works by Miro, Picasso, Dubuffet and other well-known names. Cuisine in the city is superb, whether it’s GT Prime’s meat-centric menu, culinary invention at Cindy’s Rooftop Lounge crowning the Chicago Athletic Association Hotel, or the all-local dining concept at the Revival Food Hall in the North Loop neighbourhood. I’m staying at the Cambria Chicago Magnificent Mile Hotel and I couldn’t be more comfortable. I’ve looked up at the city from the streets and hovered above it in a glass box extending from the Skydeck.

ith many golf courses around the world offering resort-style accommodation, villas and facilities, selecting where to book your next holiday or purchase you next property can be tough.

Many of the European resorts can seem similar in terms of what they offer and that’s why Argentario Golf Resort and Spa comes so highly recommended.

Think Tuscany and you immediately picture rustic homes and vineyards, dotted across green rolling hills. It’s a beautiful image, but there is more to Tuscany than the regular tourist trail, and this is one of the many special features of Argentario Golf Resort and Spa. Augusto Orsini, the man behind the successful resort, originally lived in Rome, but an annual trek to the Argentario Peninsula as a young boy, with his family and his golf-loving father, led him away from the Eternal City.

One of the main ideas behind the project was to show Tuscany’s progressive side. “In Tuscany, you are used to seeing rustic villas – which are beautiful – but I wanted to do something new, something fresh”, says Orsini.

Choosing Maremma, located on the Argentario Peninsula, Orsini conceived the project that culminated in the creation and inauguration of the golf course in 2006 and the five-star Argentario Golf Resort and Spa in 2009.

To fulfil this dream, Orsini looked for materials to give the resort a unique and eco-conscious spirit in rustic Tuscany.

On the environmental aspects of the design, Orsini says: “The resort’s eco-conscious philosophy stretches from the restaurant, which uses local products from Maremma and from the resort’s own organic vegetable garden, all the way to the golf course, which was built with as little environmental impact as possible”. ➤➤

The environmentally friendly approach has seen the return of animal species, such as fallow deer, hares and a variety of birds in the area. In addition, the resort’s grounds and golf course received BioAgricert environmental certification for sustainability and water management.

Not only does Argentario Golf Resort and Spa offer holiday accommodation, but there are also fantastic villas available for purchase and rent. The luxurious villas benefit from quality interior design and Italian furniture.

Homebuyers at Argentario Golf Resort and Spa can create their dream villa by choosing different sizes and interior design styles, ranging from contemporary to country chic and eclectic fusions. Owners are granted full access to the wide range of world-class facilities on site, including the golf course, and during long periods away, the property can be rented out to generate income.

Speaking to Argentario Golf Resort and Spa Blog and Marketing Manager, Raffaella Monaco, it is apparent this is a resort the whole family can enjoy. “Children have their own pool, indoor play area, outdoor playground, and kid’s menu at the restaurant,” says Monaco. “We also provide babysitter services and golf lessons with pros of the calibre of Emanuele ‘Cannonball’ Canonica, winner of the Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles”.

Despite being a quiet, exclusive retreat, off the beaten track, the resort is well-situated to enjoy everything Tuscany has to offer, including the famous art cities of Siena, Florence and Rome. Thanks to the mild Maremma climate, golf and other outdoor activities are enjoyed throughout the year.

The resort is also happy to organise activities for families, including sailing classes, horse riding tours and cooking classes. The stunning natural beauty of the Maremma region can be enjoyed on foot or bicycle, so there is more than enough to keep the whole family entertained.

Monaco sums up the ethos of Argentario Golf Resort and Spa beautifully, “The combination of nature, art, relaxed lifestyle and genuine food, make Argentario and Maremma Tuscany the ideal destination”. n

URBAN RETREAT

Magical moments in Minneapolis T

he Hewing Hotel is uniquely tied to the rich history of Minneapolis and reflective of the most progressive neighbourhood in town. The century-old brick-and-timber warehouse, a former farm implement warehouse in Minneapolis’s historic North Loop neighbourhood, has been reshaped into a unique, independent 124-room and 13-suite hotel. Exposed timber and brick, tall ceilings, and original industrial elements mix with high-end interiors to merge the old into a visually arresting new.

© PHOTOS COURTESY OF APARIUM HOTEL GROUP

Tullibee restaurant, off the lobby of the hotel, is inspired by the bounty of Minnesota’s lakes and woods, also paying tribute to the strong Scandinavian roots. The menu is influenced by rural Nordic practices of foraging, butchery and fermentation techniques and heavily driven by seasonality. Sitting at the bar to dine allows viewing of the open-plan food preparation area and the food is simply superb – our pick is the duck, which is hung over the open grill for several hours to gently smoke, imbuing it with a rich, smoky flavour.

Don’t miss the Hewing Hotel Rooftop, with a traditional Finnish sauna and refreshing spa pool that is cooled in the summer and heated in the winter so you can take a dip in any season. Bask in the sunlight poolside during the day, then watch the cityscape come to life with spectacular skyline views and a signature cocktail in hand. n

DESIGN SCENE

Luxury family living Creating family-centred living is crucial, especially with a new baby on the way. Lisa Preece learns how an interior designer made over a Chelsea family home on a tight deadline.

W

orking to a deadline is always challenging, but when that deadline is the arrival of a new family member, it can become even more stressful. Interior designer Amelia Carter discovered this for herself when she took on her most ambitious renovation and design project to date.

Amelia established her interior design company over five years ago, with a commitment to designing elegant and individual interiors that reflect her clients’ lifestyles. Born in Canada, this London-based designer is now supported by a skilled team of designers and architects. They create bespoke interiors with durable elegance, balancing beauty, comfort, value and practicality. Finding equilibrium was particularly important when the team was set the stimulating task of working with a Chelsea home set in communal gardens. As a family home, it was crucial to make practical, as well as beautiful, spaces. ➤➤

DESIGN SCENE

The property was vast, with 4,500 square feet of living space, and the history presented challenges. It wasn’t a listed property, so special permission was not required, but the home was built in the early 1800s and remaining aware of the heritage of the building was crucial. With children already at the heart of the house, and a baby on the way, the clients were eager to integrate their family throughout the space.

“They enjoy entertaining friends, but wanted all areas of the house to feel welcome to children. It was important that the entire property was elegant in atmosphere and hardwearing for young children,” explains Amelia.

Moving Rooms To meet the needs of working parents, certain rooms had to be moved around, which created challenges for both designers and builders. “The kitchen, sitting room and dining room were originally on the ground floor as one open-plan space,” says Amelia. “The clients wanted a separate kitchen and formal dining spaces apart from the sitting room, but they needed to become more convenient.

We decided to move the kitchen and dining areas to the lower ground floor, sacrificing an unnecessary reception room that opened onto the garden. With these rooms downstairs, we were able to dedicate the ground floor to the formal and informal sitting rooms, as well as an office.

This allowed my client to keep an eye on her children while sitting at her desk.”

The work downstairs was an extensive operation. Amelia and her team designed and installed new bespoke joinery, kitchens and bathrooms to create their client’s dream space.

Functional spaces The redesign of rooms meant that the house could be exactly what the owners needed. “The first, second and third floors were fully redesigned. We turned an office into a single bedroom for guests, which doubled as a packing space. This was crucial for a family who regularly travel.

The second floor is for the children, including two bedrooms and playroom that has been designed to become a third bedroom if needed. Upstairs, the third floor is an office and entertainment space,” says Amelia. This means everyone has their own unique and personalised space within the family home.

Foreign Exchange What you need to know about Foreign Exchange in 2017.

I

t is crucial to get foreign exchange right whenever buying and selling property internationally.

Fine & Country Foreign Exchange can guide clients through every step of the process, proving valuable knowledge for those needing to convert currencies over the coming year.

Increasing European political uncertainty Recent political events have had a profound impact on the FX markets due primarily to election results going against expectations. This uncertainty is expected to continue throughout 2017, with upcoming elections in the Netherlands, France and Germany.

Fine & Country Foreign Exchange has considered current challenges in the market and important developments for the British pound, the euro, US dollar and South African rand.

Brexit and the future direction of the EU Theresa May’s recent comments on her Brexit strategy have indicated a ‘hard’ Brexit for the UK, which has caused Sterling to fall. Expectations for the full details of her Brexit strategy are not going to be released until after article 50 is triggered, likely in March, thus GBP is expected to remain vulnerable.

Volatility expected to continue throughout 2017 2016 has proven to be the most uncertain on record in terms of the volatility index, driven by unexpected political results (Brexit and Trump win). With it, right wing politics is gaining traction and eyes are now focused on Europe and their upcoming elections, as well as Trump’s policy direction. Inevitably, 2017 will remain volatile.

30

The first 100 days of Trump’s Presidency Following Trump’s inauguration, the market will be focused on what areas the new administration will focus on and what his fiscal policies will translate to in real terms. ➤➤

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

“Forward contracts can remove risk, protect you from adverse market movements, and can give the security of a fixed settlement cost in your own currency, at the time of the contract.”

The power of currency hedging Every international property investor is exposed to currency market risk. The highest exposure is between the accepted offer and completion.

A forward contract, which fixes the exchange rate will: l Ensure you have certainty on your costs and budget. l Provide security of a fixed settlement cost. l Give you visibility as the exchange rate can be fixed for up to two years in advance.

Currency Pairs in focus: GBP/EUR – Brexit has weakened the GBP considerably causing fluctuations from pre-referendum of 1.4 to lows of 1.106 post-Brexit. The future is uncertain as little data has emerged for new trade relations, which could take many years to create and the loss of access to the single market will be a mighty blow for the GBP to bear.

l

l

l

l

BP/USD – Fluctuations have been significant over one G year with highs of 1.49 to lows of 1.199. The USD has a new administration in place; one that appears to be creating a lot of strength for the USD with plans for a new fiscal focus and rising interest rates driving the currency forwards.

The uncertainty comes in the form of fear that USD has become overvalued, or the new policies fail to generate the results they expect. If either of these occur, then a fall from the lofty position it holds is entirely possible.

BP/AUD – The AUD is a commodity based currency, given G the nature (and strength) of its exports. As the country is mining based, fluctuations in the value of the materials it pulls from the earth affect the value of the currency greatly. The value of these goods is simple supply and demand. If China, its’ closest trading partner, increases its manufacturing then it needs more raw materials, which Australia provides. The AUD value goes up as its exports generate more money. If contraction is seen in China, then the opposite occurs. With China constantly posting confusing data and its validity sometimes called into question, it has been a year with highs of 2.04 and lows of 1.59.

UR/ZAR – The ZAR started strengthening during the E “quest for yield” as it became known. When most were cutting benchmark interest rates or keeping them at multi-year lows the ZAR was sitting at around 7%, which helped generate some interest in the currency.

However, with riskier currencies such as the ZAR, upsets can occur quickly and without warning. Both volatility and variance of fluctuations can cause hurried sell-offs and rapid depreciation in value, as the currency is not pegged to another.
