I

ain McInally, Head of European Tour Properties, is rightfully proud of the network’s achievements. “Our network features some of the most prestigious golf and lifestyle resorts in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, and this ranking underlines our position as the world’s premier golf and real estate brand,” he said. Looking at the venues, there are a number of ingredients that add up to a recipe for success.

Le Golf National Paris It is not surprising that Le Golf National Albatros course was selected to host the 2018 Ryder Cup. The course was designed jointly by Hubert Chesneau and Robert von Hagge and is ranked amongst the top 100 courses in the world.

Chesneau says his goal was to create a course that could host major events with conditions that enhanced the spectator experience. He certainly achieved this.

Le Golf National has been home to the French Open since 1991 and will be hosting the 2024 Olympics. The Albatros is one of three courses at the venue. The Aigle course, with its undulating fairways and flowing roughs, provides a true links feel and is a little less challenging, but can provide a great warm up before tackling the Albatros.

Operating more as a training course is the shorter, nine‑hole Oiselet course.

The recently refurbished on-site hotel accommodation has some rooms with breathtaking views over the last four holes of the Albatros course. Coupled with the location in Guyancourt, 20 kilometres southwest of central Paris and 10 kilometres from Versailles, the venue is also committed to the promotion of nature, conservation of resources and engagement with local communities to ensure its sustainability. ➤➤

Lighthouse Golf and Spa Resort Bulgaria Lighthouse Golf and Spa Resort in Bulgaria was also ranked in the top 100. Situated five kilometres from the Bulgarian town of Balchik at the heart of Cape Kaliakra, the Lighthouse course provides stunning cliff-top views of the Black Sea. As part of the resort’s 10th anniversary, the venue hosted the 2018 European Tour Properties Senior Classic. It was fitting that the tour was led by Ian Woosnam, a previous US Open winner and designer of the championship course.

The on-course facilities with five-star accommodation and a state-of-the art spa are essential in attracting such an important golf event. In addition to the hotel, guests can rent villas and apartments dotted across the golf course. George Tchouklev, Owner and CEO of Lighthouse Golf and Spa Resort, said, “We are very proud to have been chosen to host the 2018 European Tour Properties Senior Classic. It is amazing to see how fast golf has grown in Bulgaria over the past six years and to be given this opportunity gives us confidence, knowing that we are on the right track.”

Black Mountain Golf Club Hua Hin Thailand Accolades in 2018 were not restricted to venues based in Europe. Black Mountain Golf Club was selected as one of the 12 best golf facilities in Asia. It has been included in the prestigious Asia Pacific Order of Zenith, the highest industry recognition accorded to a golf club. As one of the most challenging and memorable layouts in Asia it is the only course to be included in Golf Digest’s Best 100 Courses outside the United States.

The location, just 10 minutes from the beaches of Hua Hin, was selected by Swedish entrepreneur and avid golfer Stig Notlov, who wanted to create a world-class golf course supported by excellent facilities. Today, his vision has resulted in a highly sought-after 27-hole golf course with course-side villas, townhouses and condominiums.

Additional lifestyle facilities include a spa, tennis courts and one of the largest water parks in Asia.

Iain McInally summed up the importance of these golfing accolades, saying, “It affirms that golf travellers worldwide can put their trust in our brand when booking a golf break, able to rest assured that any venue in the European Tour Properties network will deliver first-class facilities and tournament-quality golf.” n

P

ropelled by threats of Beast from the East Part Two, while even Athens’ Acropolis sparkles with snow, my travel companion Naomi and I head to Malaga and the Gran Hotel Miramar, drawn by the allure of warmth and luxury. A field hospital during the Spanish Civil War and, more recently, the Royal Palaces of Justice, the Gran Hotel Miramar was resurrected by Hoteles Santos, opening in 2016. It is now a member of the prestigious hotel group Leading Hotels of the World.

In the evening, seated in Gran Hotel Miramar’s restaurant, Principe de Asturias, I enjoy duck, dressed in a silky chocolate and chilli sauce, with the table accompaniment of an equally silky, local olive oil, Finca la Torre. Neither would have been out of place on a cuisine catwalk. Waiter Tariq tells us, “It was voted best in the world last year by The Convention of Olive Oils of the World.” It’s testament to talented Executive Chef, Diego Nicás’ passion for regional and traditional products.

As our taxi squeaks its departure on polished stone, we enter the lobby beneath a sign announcing Palacio Miramar. Once inside, it becomes evident why. We feel like pilgrims as a sea of café con leche polished marble and an overwhelmingly delicate fragrance provided by Aromas Fenpal of Barcelona take centre stage.

Later, Concierge Jose Maria Arias gives us a peek at the old basement prison, complete with graffiti, destined now to keep only wine behind bars. We pass through the cathedral space of the courtyard lobby bar, lit by a cluster of chandeliers and natural light through the geometric glass roof. Cloistered by Corinthian pillars and Nasrid motifs, it hosts dark sofas, arm and tub chairs, a grand piano and attentive staff. It also provides access to the gorgeous Botanical Spa by Sisley, where I have an appointment to come, and the gym, where I do not.

After checking in, we decide never to leave. Our Premier suite is composed of polished marble, framed by enriched cornice plasterwork and floor-to-ceiling mocha drapes. Three separate balcony doors reveal a feast of both traditional and Moorish architecture, while, more prosaically, our room hosts a widescreen television, a DeLonghi coffee machine and a welcoming bottle of bubbly on ice.

The hotel’s experiences guide reveals, “a private jet catalogue is available to those wishing to explore far and wide”, but we decide to acquaint ourselves with nearby Malaga harbour instead, finding an array of cafés and bars necklacing an eclectic mix of yachts, cruisers and commercial ships. Offshore, a container ship holds station, while we find the ghost of Picasso in an art exhibition reflecting Malaga’s rich, creative heritage. We resolve to visit the Picasso museum tomorrow. All of life is here.

We visit the adult-only Media Luna chill-out rooftop bar, closed now until warmer weather returns. Stunning, coastline views and sunsets await summer visitors as an accompaniment to gourmet food, classic cocktails and drinks.

Breakfast the next morning is in the white-marble Mediterraneo Restaurant, offering a feast King Alfonso XIII, whose dream gave birth to the Miramar in 1926, would have relished. A panoramic view of terrace, garden and azure sky entertains and Chef Diego’s passion for produce is exemplified by a frame of honeycomb, fresh from a local beehive. Gold lobsters discreetly adorn pure white walls and marine-accented chairs invite. ➤➤

Down the hallway onto the fairway We understand that those looking at buying a property on a golf course are not just investing in a home, they are investing in a lifestyle; to wake up and walk directly onto the green and to spend the morning playing a few rounds, before retreating to the clubhouse for a spot of lunch.

This is why Fine & Country has teamed up with European Tour Properties and Troon Golf to form a specialist division, Fine & Country Golf Living. The division is dedicated to the marketing and sale of an elite collection of golf properties on some of the world’s most exclusive golf courses.

We discover just how extensive Chef Diego’s larder is when we stroll to the nearby harbour in the afternoon and drink Mojitos, mine cardamom flavoured, the sweet juice crushed before our eyes from freshly cut sugar cane.

“It’s from the Costa Tropica, 45 miles east, at Nerja,” the vendor tells us. Driven by warm African winds and protection from the Sierra Nevada, a microclimate gives life to subtropical fruit and vegetables, reminding me conversely, that skiing in the Sierra Nevada is just one and a half hour’s drive from Malaga.

Parrots serenade and pines wave us along a boulevard to the centre of Malaga, where the scent of sticky toasted almonds, nougat and marzipan draw us like moths to a flame. We leave with a fragrant bag of candied orange and nougat. At Plaza de la Constitucion, coffee lovers are netted by other intoxicating aromas and under the arch of lights along the Calle Marques de Larios, generous lumps of priceless marble provide rest for the weary.

When the seagulls siesta in the tranquil harbour, we decide it’s time to visit the Museo Picasso. We arrive when entry is free, between 4pm and 6pm on Sunday – at other times entry is eight euros. The museum is an extraordinary insight into this genius’ life and work.

We have reserved our last day for pure relaxation. In the Botanical Spa by Sisley, transcendental jets pummel my body as palm trees glitter in winter sun and fellow guests enjoy the 9,000-square-metre walled gardens.

Reluctantly packing, I acknowledge the revelation, courtesy of my spa meditations, that the time and effort that goes into a work of art is invisible to the untrained eye.

Here, though, the team has clearly stamped their signature on the masterpiece that is the Gran Hotel Miramar. n

Gran Hotel Miramar offers a special two-night Indulge and Detox package from 1,000€, including accommodation for two sharing a luxurious Premier comfort room; buffet breakfast; daily access to the Botanical Spa by Sisley; daily Complete Detox treatment; two meals from the hotel’s Delicious Detox menu (excl. drinks); and late checkout.

Price includes tax. Subject to availability.

B

udapest has been a popular investment choice for over 20 years, offering stability, along with business potential and comfortable living. From an investment perspective, statistically, the rentals market is very active, presenting attractive results in both long- and short-term rentals, which in some cases show yields of over 12%. There’s been a continual, steady rise in property values in the regenerated district over the last few years and city centre properties are in high demand. The city’s strategic location in the heart of Europe, a collection of high-quality universities, the beautiful city itself – which attracts more than 3 million visitors every year – and the low living costs create a vibrant atmosphere with broad appeal.

One regeneration project by renowned Hungarian businessman György Wáberer has been much anticipated.

Elysium, on the site of the former SZOT holiday village, offers 98 first-class apartments and penthouses, all with large terraces and panoramic views across Budapest, the Parliament and the Danube river. This unique location, ➤➤

The development is set in over two hectares of landscaped parkland and combines a level of sophistication, refined elegance and innovative technology that exceeds all expectations.

There is a 1,200-square-metre spa, including a 20-metre swimming pool, a 50-square‑metre multifunctional Jacuzzi, a sauna and steam cabin, and a 130-square-metre, fully equipped fitness centre.

Distinctive in the Delta T

he Jackal & Hide, joining the Natural Selection portfolio, is an intimate, tented retreat that offers an authentic Delta experience in Botswana and brings guests back to the basics of what a safari is all about.

Located in the Khwai Private Reserve, a 200,000-hectare area of pristine wilderness in the Greater Okavango Delta region, the retreat is in the middle of some of the most iconic game-viewing areas on the continent. Think vast floodplains and sprawling grasslands, meeting forested enclaves and an intricate network of channels and lily‑filled waterways. A safari at The Jackal & Hide is a true wilderness experience.

Guests at The Jackal & Hide are treated to a different activity every day. Classic game drives yield fantastic sightings of the wildlife, and for a different perspective on the natural world, mokoro safaris and boat trips are available. Guests also have the chance to spend time in some of the incredible ground-level hides in the reserve for up-close wildlife encounters.

The camp features eight Meru-style tents, with king‑size beds, writing desks, en suite bathrooms and private verandas with views across the shimmering grasslands.

At the main area, a sunken lounge and fire pit take pride of place in front of a favourite grazing spot for zebra and elephant, and a swimming pool is on the way. n www.naturalselection.travel

Staging your property: higher price,quicker sale Styling a property should never be considered a last resort or added expense. Design expert Josie Lywood from Fine & Country Interior Design explains the benefits of staging and how a small investment can return through a higher offer and a fast selling time.

DESIGN SCENE

T

here are times when property owners and developers struggle to understand why their reasonably priced, well-located property is not getting the offers or the value they expected. It is easy to forget that buyers are looking for their dream home.

Buyers can’t always see the potential of a property through the blur of the current owner’s taste or the blank canvas of an empty apartment. A small investment in staging and styling your property can be the difference between months on the market and a quick sale.

Although home staging is not a new concept to the property market, over the past few years it has continued to grow in popularity as more and more homeowners recognise the benefits. For a property to sell for the best possible price within the shortest time frame, it needs to appeal to the largest number of potential buyers.

Much like a retail shop window uses mannequins to display items in a manner that allows people to picture themselves wearing the clothes or using the products, staging showcases a home’s best features, creates appeal and entices potential buyers to see themselves living in that home – it creates aspirations.

Staging alone leads to listed properties selling 73% faster, with sales typically reaching higher prices, according to the Real Estate Staging Association. As an example, we saw one property on the market with two different agents for 417 days, with the highest offer sitting more than 11% under the asking price. With a little over 1% investment in staging and styling, combined with the Fine & Country selling strategy, the property exchanged contracts in just 57 days. This resulted in a net saving for the owner of £37,270 when investing in staging the property.

This shows a little style can go a long way, with the homeowner reaping the rewards of their investment.

Casting an expert eye over the property, professional stylists look at the layout, atmosphere and style and dress each property to suit the target market. Properties are transformed through small touches, allowing each home to be represented in the best light, with the sole purpose of ensuring owners receive more than they put in. n

Fine & Country Interior Design staging and styling professionals work collaboratively with Fine & Country agents, who can offer this service included within their fees, to make the sales process as stress‑free as possible.

Fine & Country Interior Design is a network of top designers around the UK. For more information on interior services, contact +44 (0)7814 245011 or email josie.lywood@fineandcountry.com.

Ever since Kate Moss made their skinny scarf a signature look, this quintessentially London brand has been a fashion insider favourite. Exuding the drama and rock-chick spirit of Rockins, the print on these exquisite silk pyjamas is inspired by the botanical creations of Flora Starkey, a Proustian reference for Rockins’ creator Jess Morris’ defining moments. Divine decadence for in and out of bed.

Grenson is a genuine British heritage brand, with more than 150 years behind it. Ironic then, that they’re so up to date, whether it’s shoes for men and women or their accessories made with steadfast attention to quality and detail. Grenson remains a must‑have. With a history dating back to the 1940s, their casual tote is as sound on engineering grounds as it is on style. £140 www.grenson.com

Best foot forward

Bionda Castana is a fine example of luxury fashion embracing positive change. Though founded in 2007 and soon acquiring red‑carpet moments, recently the brand has realigned itself on sustainable zero-waste principles. Customers select their preferred model and materials from the available archive. Each pair of shoes is then made to order and dispatched directly from Italy.

Cutler & Gross is a British heritage optical brand that was born in the Swinging Sixties, created iconic moments in the 1980s and thrives with today’s discerning eyewear wearer. Their sunglasses, available in a range of colour combinations, are perfect for escaping winter to the Caribbean sun or embracing the challenge of late-season Alpine snow glare.

Multiple award-winning jewellery designer and maker Rachel Boston offers both ready‑to-go collections and bespoke jewellery.

It is made to order from £2,000. www.rachelboston.co.uk

Duchess clutches

Wilbur & Gussie was steadily building a niche London-based handbag brand until Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, was spotted clutching one. Since then, they have barely been able to keep up with demand. Manufactured by a traditional family-run workshop in Spain, these clutch bags offer the perfect combination of practical and pretty for a special occasion.

Edith clutch £220. www.wilburandgussie.com

Tom Kay’s Finisterre is a relative newcomer to the scene, less than two decades old and born of the needs of hardy British surfers, for whom there is no tropical sun. In parallel to what it offers the beach boys of Cornwall and Devon, its sustainability-conscious outlook produces stylish winter looks such as this Westwray cable knit jumper in 100% Donegal tweed yarn. £110 www.finisterre.com
