News > The Spanish sun is calling Fine & Country has expanded its global reach by opening the Costa Blanca South office in Spain in January. The office, which is located in the prestigious area of Punta Prima between the towns of Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa, will cover a large area which includes the two million residents of Alicante. Fine & Country’s new office has been established by Elena Ivanova, Managing Director of Bennecke, one of the leading real estate agencies on the Costa Blanca. “There is a wide variety of properties in the area including apartments, townhouses, bungalows and villas with a range of prices to suit,” Elena said. “We are delighted to join a strong network with a great brand reputation that offers the best in international real estate.” For more info please contact: Albufeira (Portugal head office) +351 919 482 536 infoirg@fineandcountry.com
> Portuguese expansion Fine & Country opened a ninth Portuguese office in December 2015 with Fine & Country Albufeira joining the network of estate agents in over 300 locations worldwide. The office has been established by Fátima Donnelly, who has lived in the area for over 12 years. Albufeira is the Algarve’s most popular tourism destination, known for its great beaches and nightlife. The market in the Algarve is particularly positive at the moment with 5% growth anticipated in 2016 due largely to the NHR tax regime attracting retirees from Northern Europe. Properties in the area range from apartments for around €200,000 to luxury villas for around €5 million. For more info please contact: Costa Blanca South: +34 96 571 43 62 cbs@fineandcountry.com

> Date for the diary The Fine & Country Gold Cup is returning to Dallas Burston Polo Club in Warwickshire on Sunday 10th July from 11am to 5pm. Last year’s event saw thousands of attendees turn out to watch the Cup, which provided plenty of thrills as well as a lovely day out. There will be something for everyone, from a champagne bar for adults to children’s area with funfair attractions, face painting, pony rides and competitions. Plus, families can purchase a delicious picnic hamper to enjoy on the day from the polo club. The event is free to attend, with a donation of £10 requested per car. All proceeds will be donated to the Fine & Country Foundation, which is dedicated to fighting the causes of homelessness. Please see www.fineandcountry.com/uk/polo to book your tickets.
> On the box Fine & Country has made its first television advertising campaign. A 30-second commercial will air on the Channel 4 group of stations, known as ‘the home of property’, throughout March, April and May 2016. It will focus on Fine & Country’s lifestyle approach to selling homes and the importance of choosing an agent who understands how to turn a home into a bestseller. “This is an exciting time for Fine & Country,” said Jon Cooke, CEO of Fine & Country. “TV is the natural next step to allow the brand to reach more people than ever before. The advert will demonstrate that while we’re well known for beautiful country houses, we also list a wide range of modern urban apartments and town houses, catering for all types of sellers of prime residential properties.”
> A winning streak Fine & Country Portugal added to their award success with the highly coveted ‘Best International Real Estate Agency Marketing’ award. This came after winning two regional awards, with the office going on to triumph in the worldwide category. Held in December 2015, the contest saw more than 2,000 entries from over 110 countries. Joint managing partners of Fine & Country Portugal, Nuno Durão and Charles Roberts, said: “Winning these accolades in the face of incredibly strong competition from estate agencies across the globe has reinforced the work the company has put in over the last year to deliver the best of marketing expertise to our customers. It is a great credit to our marketing team in Portugal and the support of the Fine & Country brand based in London.”

he BMW PGA Championship is a golf tournament like no other in the world. Founded in 1955 by the Professional Golfers Association, the BMW PGA Championship started life at the Pannal and Starbeck Golf Clubs. In addition, the event visited a number of other venues and witnessed some of golfs great winners, including the “voice of golf” Peter Alliss. Having hosted the event for the first time in 1972, the Wentworth Club and iconic West Course in Surrey became the long-standing home of the BMW PGA Championship in 1984. When casting an eye over previous winners, it’s little surprise that the tournament is held in such high esteem throughout the golfing world. The list of winners at Wentworth reads like a who’s who of professional golf, including legends of the sport such as Bernhard Langer, Seve Ballesteros, Ian Woosnam, Sir Nick Faldo, José Maria Olazábal and Colin Montgomerie. More recently, popular winners have included Miguel Angel Jiménez, Luke Donald and Rory McIlroy. The defending champion coming in to 2016, is South Korea’s Byeong-Hun An, who won the 2015 BMW PGA Championship by six strokes over Thailand’s Thongchai Jaidee and Spain’s Jiménez. By winning in 2015, ByeongHun An became the first Asian player to win the BMW PGA Championship, highlighting what a fantastic global event the tournament has become. BMW became part of the event in 2005 and this has spurred the tournament on, in terms of growth and popularity. “The event has grown enormously in the past decade and is now one of the highlights of the sporting calendar. We have around 100,000 spectators through the gates over the week, creating a unique atmosphere and a real buzz about the place,” says Jamie Birkmyre, Director of Championship Management at The European Tour. “As well as some world-class golf on a stunning, iconic course, we have the superb Championship Village where spectators can enjoy an unrivalled experience, trying out golf challenges, checking out BMW’s amazing range of cars and enjoying some high-quality entertainment.” None of this would be possible without an impressive golf course and the West Course at Wentworth is truly something special. Situated pleasantly amongst a woodland of oak, birch and pine, the West Course winds its way through the wooded landscape, offering changes of elevation throughout. Between 2009 and 2010, 18 new greens were added to the West Course, all of which met USGA specifications and are kept to the highest standards. The remodelling and design of bunkers has also led to a more challenging ➤➤

course, one which demands a golfer use every club in his bag. These changes were overseen by a famous face, long-term Wentworth resident and golf course architect, Ernie Els. A par 73 course that stretches 7,281 yards, it was first designed almost 90 years ago by Harry Colt and hosted the 1953 Ryder Cup. The World Matchplay was hosted by the West Course between 1964 and 2007 and the Canada Cup, now the World Cup of Golf, has also been played on the course. In terms of history and the volume of high-flying events staged, there are few courses that can match the West Course at Wentworth. Wentworth is not only home to the BMW PGA Championship. It is also close to a major world city and the home-base of an important organisation. “Wentworth is where The European Tour headquarters are located, which makes life easier for the long build process,” comments Jamie. “Logistically, it has so many advantages. It is close to London, has excellent transport links and has enough space to set up a fantastic spectator village. Most importantly, however, it boasts a wonderful, testing championship golf course that is a pleasure to play and to spectate.” In terms of prestige, few events can match the BMW PGA Championship, which is a major event on The European Tour. Not only does the event attract some of the best golfers in the world, it also draws in a number of big-name celebrities. The pro-am tournament, traditionally played on the Wednesday before the professional event, has featured a variety of famous participants. Previous faces to take up the Wentworth challenge include Sir Steve Redgrave, Tim Henman, Niall Horan from One Direction and Anton Du Beke of Strictly Come Dancing fame. Such is the popularity of the pro-am, it has become a spectacle in its own right.
One of the beneficial factors for the BMW PGA Championship is the fact the West Course sets up brilliantly for spectators. There is an amphitheatrelike quality about many of the holes, providing excellent viewpoints for all the action on the greens. There are grandstands available on some of the tees and greens, plus numerous eating and drinking options around the course, in addition to the Theatre of Food in the Championship Village. For many, entertainment off the course is just as important as the golf itself, with plenty on offer over the course of the week. “In the past few years we’ve had live performances from the Allstars Band and, last year, the Jones Gang, fronted by The Who drummer Kenney Jones. This year we’ve got Mike and the Mechanics playing a rare gig, and Tom Chaplin, the lead singer of multi-million album-selling band Keane,” comments Jamie. “There is also a new 100-foot putting challenge in the Championship Village – the Totally Mega Putt Challenge! – and Cotter’s Questions, where BBC commentator Andrew Cotter quizzes celebrities and players on the Show Stage.” There really is something for everyone at the BMW PGA Championship and the fun doesn’t stop when the last ball has been putted. Indeed, 2016 will see the introduction of a Twilight Ticket option, allowing people to watch the closing stages of the day’s play and stay around for live music in the village. It’s clear that the BMW PGA Championship is going from strength to strength. With a record breaking 113,640 spectators through the gates over the week in 2015, the event is continuing on a popular growth trajectory. Tickets are sure to be in high demand for the 2016 event, which takes place on the West Course between the 24th and 29th May. They’re on sale now, so book now before they all get snapped up. n

obart, in Tasmania, Australia, is a rather small capital. It does command the lion’s share – and the lion features on the state flag – of the island’s 500,000-strong population, with 218,000 calling the city home. Celebrity chef Rick Stein certainly wasn’t complaining about the city’s diminutive size, when he visited as part of a tour of Tasmania for the BBC series World on a Plate. He hunted for wallabies – the latest game meat taking the world by storm, sampled arguably the best single malt whiskey in the world and tasted sustainably farmed salmon that has become a national obsession. And in the process, he lauded Tasmania’s foodie scene, putting the state firmly on the gastronomic map. It’s a long way from the old “Apple Isle” moniker. It’s not just the local produce that’s put Hobart, and Tasmania, on the world stage, either. Sure, the seafood is fresh, the wallaby is tender and the distinct cool-climate wines are delectable, but there’s also a lot happening in the arts scene. In fact, much of the credit for the recent surge in Hobart’s popularity has been attributed to the Museum of New and Old Art (MONA). Opened in 2011 by professional gambler and philanthropist David Walsh, the bizarre subterranean collection of somewhat random and controversial works drew in 330,700 visitors in the last year alone, according to figures from the Tasmanian Visitor Survey – and that doesn’t count the locals that visit time and time again. Well, the entry is free for Tasmanians and MONA is more than art-meets-science. It’s also a venue for all kinds of events, including Mona Foma, known as Mofo, MONA’s annual festival of music and art, and Dark Mofo, a winter festival that celebrates the dark through large-scale public art, food, music, light, film and noise. Alighting from MONA’s fast service along the Derwent River, where punters can choose the Posh Pit, with complementary beverages and nibbles, or the standard service, which includes the option of sitting on a fiberglass sheep, the edifice squats above, chiseled into an escarpment. From the lobby, a spiral staircase descends 17 metres underground, ending in a cathedrallike basement bordered by a 250-million-year-old Triassic sandstone wall. Without giving the game away, what follows is three levels of a provocative and evocative jumble of art. Like it or hate it (which some do), it’s undeniably fascinating. There’s more to Hobart than MONA though. Time it right and you may be there for the Taste of Tasmania, a weeklong festival celebrating Tasmania’s food and wine that runs over the end of each year and the start of the
new one. The Sydney to Hobart yacht races finishes at the same time, so the streets are thronged with yachties and spectators, and on the bay, the sails of these sleek craft flap like colourful flags. Every second year around March, ‘Ten Days on the Island’ takes to the stage, with artistic performances in the theatres and on every street corner. Then there’s the Australian Wooden Boat Festival, the Antarctic Midwinter Festival, the Festival of Voices and a road rally called Targa Tasmania that traverses the state, finishing in Hobart. There are also the everyday sights. Hobart sits in the foothills of Mount Wellington. From the pinnacle, on a clear day, you can see across the Tasman Sea and into the wild South West National Park, a World Heritage Area. You’ll also have a bird’s eye view and realise that the city centre is wedged between the mountain and the banks of the Derwent, with the suburbs stretching across the water to the eastern shore. Wellington Park is threaded with tracks and trails that cover dry woodlands to windswept summits, offering short strolls and more extended walks into remote areas. Every Saturday, the mellow sandstone facades of historic warehouses watch over Salamanca Market, with more than 300 stalls selling a medley of fresh fruit, the distinctive leatherwood honey, crisp organic vegetables, kitchen-wares carved from sweet-smelling Huon Pine, locally designed jewellery, clothing and crafts. Whether you want to kick back over a coffee and listen to buskers singing the blues or pick up a handcrafted souvenir, this is the place to do it. At night, the wine bars and pubs here are packed to the brim, as punters sip on sauvignon and dine Al fresco. On Sundays, come rain, hail or shine – and sometimes you’ll get all three in one day – a busy street in the heart of Hobart transforms into a bustling farmers’ market. It’s all about Tasmanian produce and getting to know your farmer. If you can’t eat it, drink it, grow it or meet the producer, you won’t find it here. What you will find is an ever-changing array produce, and the true meaning of the word “provenance.” On the other side of the city, the equally verdant Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens are a haven for green thumbs, and if you time it right, you may catch one of Directions Theatre’s Shakespeare in the Gardens productions. Much Ado About Nothing is currently tumbling its way around the gardens, the audience following in its wake, toting blankets and picnic baskets. Yes, Hobart may be small, but it’s taken American author Napoleon Hill’s advice: “If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.” This city does both. ➤➤

There’s beautiful and then there’s breathtaking. La Zagaleta Golf & Country Club is both. Sophie Green explores one of its finest villas.
L
a Zagaleta is one of Europe’s finest residential and golfing estates. Located at the heart of one of the most attractive areas of the Costa del Sol in Andalucía, Spain, it sits only a few kilometres from the well-known Puerto Banús in Benahavis. Benahavis is a Spanish mountain village situated between Marbella, Estepona and Ronda, a mere seven kilometres from the coast. Renowned for its restaurants, it is often called the dining room of the Costa del Sol, but it equally deserves the moniker of golfer’s paradise, with nine of the 60 golf courses in the Costa del Sol set here. Standing on the southern face of La Serrania de Ronda mountain range, Benahavis is a picturesque area of the western Costa del Sol. With resort beaches against the spectacular mountain backdrop, it offers the best of both world and its terrain is also traversed by the rivers Guadalmina, Guadaiza, and Guadalmansa. Places of natural and historic interest nearby abound, including El Cerro del Duque, Daidin and the Montemayor
Castle, yet Benehavis is surrounded by natural parkland, retaining a secluded feel. La Zagaleta, the exclusive gated residential estate and country club overlooking the village, lies within its municipal boundaries, and contributes to Benahavis’ status as the richest municipality per capita in Andalucía. Entering the north gate of La Zagaleta Golf & Country Club, it’s only a few minutes’ drive to one spectacular villa, currently on the market. From the moment you arrive at the entrance gates of this property, where the sweeping driveway leads to the circular patio at the front of the villa, you know you are going to view something different; something exceptional. This spacious contemporary home, situated in the most elevated area of the La Zagaleta estate, offers breathtaking, unobstructed views of the golf course, the coast and out to the Mediterranean Sea. On a clear day, with a little imagination, it’s not hard to envision gazing on Gibraltar and across to the coast of Africa from this ➤➤ spectacular property.

Island idyll T
he Maldives is well-known for its plethora of gleaming white-sand beaches fringed with lush palm trees and lapped by impossibly turquoise water, but The Private Reserve at Gili Lankanfushi, a mere 20-minute speedboat ride from Male Airport, is in a league of its own. Perched in the middle of an aquamarine lagoon with uninterrupted 360-degree views of the Indian Ocean and accessible only by boat, this rustic-chic residence lies 500 metres from Gili Lankanfushi’s shores, offering total seclusion. It is the largest of its kind in the Maldives, covering 1,700 square metres and featuring a private spa facility, a private cinema, a large, open-plan living area with a sea garden, a natural coral pool, sundecks, a swimming pool and luxuriously appointed suites that provide flexible accommodation options. This is no doubt why Buzz Aldrin chose The Private Residence for his holiday – or it may have been the private water slide that runs from the Residence’s second floor straight into the ocean. www.gili-lankanfushi.com

INTERIOR DESIGN SCENE
Familycentred design Interior design has the power to turn a house into a home. While everyone has their own taste, professionals can make a vision come to life more effectively than a time-pressed homeowner. Lisa Preece talks to awardwinning designers Landmass London to see how they work their magic.

I
nterior designers at Landmass London settle only for perfection. Established in 1998, the experienced team are renowned for creating some of London’s most desirable homes. Their unrivalled imagination has earned them numerous accolades, including “Best Interior Design in London” in the Daily Mail UK Residential Property Awards. They specialise in commissions from home owners wanting to produce the most prized configuration of their property, complemented by timeless interiors and stunning features. Landmass London was recently hired by an art-collecting family living in a secluded home in Little Venice, London. The clients wanted to accentuate the original period details of the property and make the most of the vast ceiling heights, using the spacious rooms to provide a sense of grandeur and scale. Three of the key rooms that were given a full makeover were the lower ground family room, the living room and the kitchen. After talking to their clients, the two designers, Eleri Lloyd and Ruth Soria, realised that the ground floor would be perfect as an entertaining space. From the start of the project, they were eager to knock through the dividing wall between the hallway and dining area to flood the space with light and provide a large, open-plan entertaining space. As the property is Grade II Listed, planning permission to make the change was a necessity. This also meant the designers protected and restored original features such as the cornice, skirting, doors and frames, which are original to the building. “The restrictions caused some problems as the ceiling was traditional lath plaster, which is also a protected feature in certain areas of the property,” Eleri points out. “This meant we had to consider alternatives to spot lighting in the ceiling in these parts of the house.” A new marble fire place was installed and oak chevron flooring was introduced with a bespoke stain and oiled finish. Subtle paint colours were chosen to enhance the sense of space. “The client’s art work was also a key factor for the design and a hanging system was introduced around the room, which enabled our client to hook lights above paintings as they wish,” Ruth discloses. “The neutral surroundings let these art pieces speak for themselves.” “The brief for the lower ground floor was all about creating an area for the family to relax, watch TV, and allow the children to play in the garden while being supervised from the kitchen area,” Eleri explains. The space is flexible, with the kitchen separated by sliding pocket doors which can disappear into the wall to have an open-plan kitchen living area when desired.

n the middle of a beautifully protected National Park, this newly built vineyard estate is situated in the serene Toscana like setting of the Kali Basin, Hungary. As a pinnacle project for the entire country in terms of level of sophistication, elegance and facilities, the estate has maintained most of its authentic heritage in shape and form including an untouched, approximately 275 year old wine cellar. As love and passion for wine was their first motivation, the owners have been meticulous in resurrecting a century’s old decayed vineyard and in 2003 replanted as the highest commercially acclaimed terroir of 385/400 points with French clones. As a result, some of the finest wines of Hungary, competing on a world stage have emerged and are well nurtured in the local region. The estate is currently a commercial operation selling its world acclaimed prize winning wines and offering an exquisite location for tourism lodging, weddings, special events and company retreats. It is also ideal as a large private residence.

SottoMayor Residências, Lisbon
T
he original buildings that comprise the SottoMayor Residências next to the Marquês de Pombal were constructed in 1904 by the banker Cândido Sottomayor. These apartments were considered to be one of the best for rental income and personal residence in Lisbon with high ceilings, and decorated ceilings with moulded plasterwork inspired by the neo-renaissance as well as boisserie fireplaces. In perfect condition the apartments are a testament to the wealthy bourgeoisie that installed themselves in this area at the beginning of the XIX Century. SottoMayor Residências is undergoing a total reconstruction using modern engineering and recreating what was and will be the best building for rental income and personal residence in the centre of Lisbon.
This luxury development was designed taking into account classic and present day styles. Preserving its unique characteristics and combining modernity with comfort, SottoMayor Residências are being totally renovated from the ground up, incorporating various below ground garage floors and comprising 97 elegant apartments. Living in the SottoMayor Residências is to enjoy the best location in Lisbon and its traditional charm, making this building one of the best residential investments in Portugal.

UK Brighton, East Sussex Consort House is a rare Grade 1 Listed whole Regency townhouse. A leading Brighton surveyor describes the property as a new build in Regency clothing, and concludes it is the finest restoration he has seen in 20 years of practice in the area. Steeped in history, this was the former home of Thai Royalty in 1940s/1950s. The developers have undertaken similar large restorations in the area, and have been put forward for the South East Buildings Excellence Award 2016 by Brighton and Hove City Council in respect of this stunning property. Consort House enjoys magnificent views of the sea as well as views across, and access to, Kemp Town Enclosures (6 acres of private gardens including a tunnel to seafront, said to be the inspiration for ‘down the rabbit hole’ in Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’), a 65’ walled rear garden (very rare in central Brighton), a wealth of period features combined with the latest technology, plus a double-storey glazed extension to rear.

UK Barrow Gurney, Bristol Situated in a glorious countryside location, just minutes from Bristol City centre, is Barrow Court, an imposing country mansion that is enveloped by acres of magnificent grounds. The property was rebuilt in 1887 by the Gibbs family, and handed down the generations until it was sold in the 1970s, and permission was granted to split the main house into separate spacious properties. The Monastery is a beautiful home that forms a wing of Barrow Court. “I’ve lived, more or less, all of my life in Bristol, and although Barrow Court is only 15 minutes from the city centre I never knew it was here, but as soon as I saw it and the beautiful grounds I fell in love with it.”*
