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.

ine & Country understands moving home is one of the most important decisions you can make; your home is both a financial and emotional investment.
Fine & Country takes the instruction to sell your home as a privilege, an honour and as a very serious commitment to you. Through excellent marketing, we deliver an efficient sales process and a courteous, careful service. The more expensive property demands a more extensive presentation in order to enhance the character of the property, the location, the area, the facilities and the lifestyle – for all prospective buyers. The widespread exposure of your property is crucial. In today’s market not only is the mobility of buyers greater than ever, but also the ways in which they may access information. Your prospective buyer could come from, quite literally, anywhere - through local and regional marketing, through national newspapers and magazines or, increasingly, internationally using the interactive technologies such as the internet, touchscreens and mobile phones. Instruct Fine & Country and you could benefit from our knowledge, experience, expertise and contacts and our well trained, educated and courteous staff. You are assisted, advised and informed through each stage of the whole transaction.
“Sophisticated, intelligent and creative marketing that provides the type of information buyers would never normally see – it is a case of presenting and promoting your property as if it were our own.”

Record-breaking events

Fine & Country Golf recently joined a selection of prestigious brands in hosting the BMW PGA Championship Village, which included big names such as Jumeirah Golf Estates, Emirates Airlines, BMW, Mini, Lindt and Rolex. Fine & Country exhibited a selection of stunning golfing homes that are on the market throughout the UK and abroad to an engaged golfing audience. Those who visited the stand were able to enquire about Fine & Country, its UK and international network of estate agents, the bespoke golf division and the partnership with European Tour Properties and Troon Golf.
The event broke all previous attendance records with 19,123 attending the Celebrity Pro-Am day, when celebrities including One Direction’s Niall Horan, and footballers Phil Neville and Paul Scholes also took to the course. Thursday also saw record-breaking numbers, with 20,956 guests travelling to Wentworth to be present for the first official day of the tournament.
This year’s BMW PGA Championship set records galore over the six-day event at Wentworth Golf Club, Surrey. Fine & Country Golf exhibited at the club for the first time with the event seeing record crowds of 113,640 in attendance. The week promised an exhilarating tournament of golf and did not disappoint for the crowds attending. Spectators were treated to five holes in one, a BMW PGA Championship record, and an outstanding final day of golf from Byeong-Hun An which saw him take his first European Tour title and finish 21 under par.
“We were thrilled with our first experience in exhibiting at the BMW PGA Championship,” says Robert O’Brien, Head of Fine & Country Golf. “With record-breaking crowds and perfect weather conditions, we were able to showcase our most stunning golfing homes to a packed Championship Village of golf players and fans. Our partnerships with European Tour Properties and Troon Golf enabled us to provide a unique presentation of the best golfing resorts worldwide and the scene quickly became competitive amongst those hoping to win a trip to PGA Catalunya.”
Capital expansion A new Fine & Country office opened in Sydenham, South East London on Monday 1 June, 2015. The new office joins the global network of over 300 offices worldwide, representing the brand’s rapid expansion in the country’s capital. This news comes just weeks after an office opened in Cockfosters, North London, and
several months after the launch of the Fine & Country Fulham office in West London. Fine & Country London South East, Fine & Country’s fifth London office, will specialise in the sale of properties in the upper quartile of the market in South London. The new office has been established by reputable independent agency, Wooster & Stock, and will be led by Luke Wooster, Luke Bishop and Zoe Matheson. The agency is known for its fresh and modern approach to estate agency and its enthusiasm for innovative marketing. The office will be located within the existing Wooster & Stock office located at 110 Kirkdale, Upper Sydenham. Director of Fine & Country London South East, Luke Wooster says: “The Fine & Country London South East team all live locally and bring with them years of experience in the local property market. We chose Fine & Country to achieve broader exposure to the national and international marketplace. It’s a high-quality brand with a fantastic reputation.”

Going for gold Fine & Country held its annual International Conference on 3 July, 2015 at the Millennium Hotel in Mayfair, near Fine & Country’s International Headquarters on Park Lane. With over 150 attendees representing offices throughout the UK, Europe and South Africa, the International Conference followed the theme ‘Back to the Future’, as attendees looked at estate agency and the Fine & Country brand in the past, present and future. The International Conference was followed by an ‘80s-themed gala dinner and awards ceremony. The Fine & Country Awards recognise the offices that have gone above and beyond in providing an excellent service. “This year’s conference was our best to date with engaging, relevant and motivating content,” says Fine & Country’s David Lindley. “The back-to-the-future message was fully embraced by all those attending. The presentations transported attendees into the future of estate agency and provided guidance into how Fine & Country can embrace change to stay ahead of the competition.”
The winners this year are: • Best Newcomer Award: Fine & Country Brighton and Hove • Property Presentation Award: Fine & Country St Neots • Best on Brand Office Award: Fine & Country Fulham • Listing Achievement Award: Fine & Country Norwich • Referrals and Networking Award: Fine & Country St Neots • Marketing and Promotion Award: Fine & Country Lisbon • Overall winner, Best Fine & Country Operator Award: Fine & Country from Newmans
A fine match On Sunday 5 July, Fine & Country welcomed nearly 4,000 attendees to watch 14 teams compete in the seventh Fine & Country Gold Cup at Dallas Burston Polo Club. In typical British style, attendees munched on picnics and sipped Pimms as they watched Rigby & Rigby claim the winning title.
Fine & Country Ascot opened in July, representing the brand’s expansion in the south east of England. The new office has been established by Basil Samaan who, along with Sales Manager Peter Nicholls, brings more than 50 years of combined experience in the estate agency industry. Fine & Country Ascot specialises in the sale and letting of residential property in Ascot and the surrounding villages.

The event has grown exponentially over the years and is now established as a distinguished date in the calendar, featuring the shopping village with local exhibitors, as well as Dallas Burston Polo Club’s new Champagne Laurent-Perrier bar, situated on the Clubhouse terrace. The bouncy castle in the children’s area also saw a lot of action. Attendees donated their car parking fee to the Fine & Country Foundation which is dedicated to fighting homelessness. In total the Foundation raised £5,600 in charitable donations.

“Ascot and the surrounding villages are such sought after locations for those looking to buy homes in the upper quartile of the property market – a Fine & Country office in Ascot seemed like an obvious choice,” says Nicholls. “I chose to invest in the Fine & Country brand because of its strength, its continued growth in the UK and abroad, and its innovative marketing and technology that will help keep us ahead of the competition.”

f you were to ask someone to name a city in the United Arab Emirates, the chances are the answer will be ‘Dubai’. The business centre of the Middle East, Dubai is one of the most modern cities in the world and rates highly as one of the best places to live.
GOLF EXCLUSIVE HOME WORLDWIDE
It’s easy to see the attraction. The location of Dubai makes it ideal for businesses from the east and west to meet. A convenient world-class airport makes this feasible and the weather is great – especially between October and April, with sunshine and pleasant temperatures throughout. Furthermore, the range of facilities available in Dubai is superb. From apartments to shopping malls, it’s all there in abundance.

In this booming metropolis lies one site which is really making a name for itself, both locally and internationally, and that’s Jumeirah Golf Estates. With so much on the go, Dubai is the ideal place for world-class golf courses and Jumeirah Golf Estates certainly delivers, offering world-class golfing facilities and individually designed homes in the United Arab Emirates. The Estates are a fantastic combination of premium golf courses and luxurious living spaces. Situated within a 30 minute drive of Dubai International Airport and 20 minutes from The Palm and Dubai Marina, the development is perfectly located. Surrounded by Dubai Sport City, the Green Community and Jumeirah Village, the resort enjoys an envious position within the heart of one of the newer areas of the city that stretches along the coast. Yousuf Kazim, CEO of Jumeirah Golf Estates, says “Jumeirah Golf Estates is a thriving community of families and international visitors and one of the few places in the Emirates to be surrounded by nature, with its 15 lakes and wealth of wildlife creating a truly tranquil environment.”

The Earth course was designed and built with a specific tournament in mind: the DP World Tour Championship. Featuring undulating fairways, challenging changes in elevation, deep bunkers and wellcontoured greens, it’s a course that provides a true test of golfing ability. Additional water hazards, strategically placed, combine to get players thinking about club selection, whilst also being pleasant on the eye. With the addition of the Fire course, which has a links-style feel, there is a choice of world-class golf available throughout the year.
GOLF EXCLUSIVE HOME WORLDWIDE
The complex boasts two fantastic golf courses, named Fire and Earth. Both courses were expertly designed by legendary Australian golfer and two-time Open Championship winner, Greg Norman. The former world number one set up a company called Greg Norman Golf Course Design and while the company has been responsible for the design of over 70 golf courses to date, the Fire and Earth courses at Jumeirah Golf Estates are easily among the best.

With a highly rated golf course comes world-class facilities, including the first European Tour Performance Institute in the Middle East, an impressive clubhouse, pro-shop, restaurants, a driving range and practice areas. With this in mind, there can be little surprise that European Tour have chosen the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates to host their annual season finale.

After officially opening in 2009, the Earth course caught the imagination of people world-wide, as they watched the DP World Tour Championship on television. Prior to this, despite the course being complete, it was kept closed and this built up great anticipation among golf fans around the globe. Since the grand opening, the Earth course has received five-star reviews and numerous awards, including the ‘Best New Golf Development Project’ and also the ‘Best Professional Tournament’ in the Middle East Golfer Awards.
In fact, it’s not only the Earth course which has been winning awards. Jumeirah Golf Estates picked up four awards at the International Property Awards held in Dubai towards the end of 2014. The awards included ‘Best Golf Development Dubai’ and ‘Best Golf Development Arabia’. These awards highlight how Jumeirah Golf Estates has successfully combined two world-class golf courses with sought-after, luxurious residential property. With the construction of AlAndalus now underway, there’s no better time to become part of this exciting golf resort. n
Not only can Jumeirah Golf Estates boast two world-class golf courses, it is also home to some of the best real-estate development in the Middle East. David MacLaren, Director of Property & Venue Development at The European Tour, sums it up perfectly, “In many ways, it is the epitome of how a real-estate development can successfully attract people who not only want to live next to a worldclass golf course, but who also want to enjoy all the leisure and lifestyle benefits of living within a resort.”
Above: The “Norman Mile” stretching out towards the 18th of the Earth course. Below: Tuscan-inspired family homes.
Currently offering 1,050 town-houses, villas and apartments on the edge of the two golf courses, Jumeirah Golf Estates has quickly established itself among the world’s most prestigious residential golf communities. With buyers originating primarily from the UK, Northern Europe and India, the majority of whom are Dubai-based expatriates, there’s a growing mix of cultures within the community, as there is across Dubai. Following the success of the current property offering, the next stage of development, AlAndalus, features more mid-market accommodation.

Finally, after years of flat growth and false dawns, the Marbella property market is moving forward again. Enquiries, client numbers and purchases are set to be record-breaking for the first half of 2015. Finding quality luxury properties, however, is proving difficult with low levels of construction within the region over the past seven years. This in itself is creating demand amongst buyers and coupled with the favourable exchange rates into Euro, purchasing the perfect property here has never seemed more attractive, although finding that perfect property can be a tricky proposition. Villa Poniente presents a rare opportunity to acquire just such a property. Having originally come to the market at an asking price in excess of €7 million and consistently producing eye-watering rental returns, any savvy investor will see a great opportunity. Poniente is a glamorous villa built in French-chateau style and is located in Aloha, one of the most prestigious and convenient locations in Marbella. Residents can avail of a limitless number of golf courses, while relaxed local bars and restaurants are within a short stroll. The beaches, shops and nightlife of Puerto Banús and Marbella are just a five minute drive from this tranquil private residence. The eight-bedroom villa has all the luxury and modern conveniences one could hope for and comes with its own private pool, tennis court, cinema and separate guest quarters.

Catching a glimpse of the Neo-classical façade of The Corinthia Hotel Budapest, I’m immediately transported into an era of historical glamour that befits a city with such a stunning architectural heritage. The hotel sits regally on the Grand Boulevard, the main artery of the Hungarian capital, a site it has commanded since 1896 albeit under the name Grand Hotel Royal. The interior, however, is of another era altogether. Reconstructed in 1956 after a fire destroyed the roof, and reinvented by Corinthia after falling into disrepair, Corinthia Hotel Budapest re-emerged in 2003 like a phoenix rising resplendent from the ashes.

Since reopening, the Grande Dame of a hotel has attracted the stars, who wallow in the luxury of its palatial Ferenc Liszt Presidential Suite. A trawl through the hotel’s guest book is like dipping into a ‘Who’s Who’ of music, movies, fashion and sport, from burlesque performer Josephine Baker to Ella Fitzgerald and Sean Connery. On entrance, it’s easy to see why the hotel draws the rich and famous. The understated opulence of the 1930’s styled lobby is just the start. A glass atrium allows natural light to filter in to the gleaming white space, and the staff is quick to welcome guests into the embrace of the hotel. I’m immediately whisked to the executive floor and handed the keys to one of the signature suites, adjacent to the presidential suite. I may not be royalty, but I’m certainly made to feel special in this expansive space, with its luxurious Super King size bed, separate living room, dining room, kitchen and glorious marble bathroom. As gorgeous as it all is, I have a city to explore, so I tear myself away from comfort and exit the hotel for a stroll down to the Danube. It takes a while to arrive at the river – not because it’s a lengthy walk, but rather, because there are so many sights to take in on the way. I wander by the Moorish Revival-style Dohány Street Synagogue and admire St. Stephen’s Basilica, where crowds of visitors in the cobbled square wave their cameras at the picturesque church building. I amble through green spaces, where groups of people congregate in the sun, dawdling as I admire the immense buildings lining Liberty Square. Budapest is a city made for walking. It’s busy, but not crowded, and it feels safe and welcoming. Close to the river, it’s the 1904 Hungarian Parliament Building that takes my breath away. The largest building in Hungary and the equal-highest building in Budapest – along with St Stephens Basilica
– the multi-spired Gothic Revival edifice has a symmetrical façade and a central dome that overlooks the water. The ornate structure looks like it has been plucked from a fairytale, and pleasure boats and river cruisers chug slowly past its immensity, passengers crowded on the decks to admire the view. To appreciate the structure in its entirety I’m going to have to cross the river. Following the gentle curve of the riverbank, I collide with a memorial honouring the Jews killed by fascist Arrow Cross militiamen in Budapest during World War II. In remembrance of those who were ordered to take off their shoes before they were shot at the edge of the water, a line of 60 pairs of cast iron shoes sit on the verge. Tea candles flicker in some, others sport a single red flower. It’s a powerful reminder of a tragic moment in history, conceived by film director Can Togay and sculptor Gyula Pauer. Lost in the moment, I quietly wander to the Széchenyi Chain Bridge, which spans the Danube, allowing crossing from Pest to Buda, on the western side. Designed by British engineer William Tierney Clark, this was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Hungary, and was opened in 1849, although it has been reinforced since. Stone lions guard the cast iron suspension bridge in all its magnificence and the views along the river are spectacular. There’s a short funicular that transports sightseers to Buda Castle, but the long line forces me to walk up the steep incline, giving my thighs a workout. Perched on top of Castle Hill, this area is thronged with visitors and market stalls and I can’t resist a keepsake, purchasing a locally-made pendant on my way to the Halászbástya, otherwise known as the Fisherman’s Bastion. This neo-Gothic and

neo-Romanesque-style terrace wrapped around Matthias Church offers panoramic views of Budapest, making it the perfect point at dusk, as the city’s lights flicker to life. Before long, the Parliament building glows a brilliant gold, reflected back on the inky surface of the river as dusk turns to night. After a sound sleep and a lengthy breakfast at Corinthia Hotel Budapest – the volume of breakfast choices encourages lingering – I’m ready to tackle the city once more. I catch the Metro to Heroes’ Square, with its iconic statue complex featuring the Seven Chieftains of the Magyars and other important national leaders, as well as the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. From here, I enter City Park for a stroll around the pond to the gleaming yellow Széchenyi thermal bath, where bathers lounge around heated pools fed by two thermal springs. I consider a dip, but Corinthia Hotel Budapest’s Royal Spa is calling, so instead I hasten back to the hotel.
As I depart Corinthia Hotel Budapest, weaving my way through the city to the airport, one word lingers in my mind. The city, the architecture, the landmarks, the hotel and the cuisine are intertwined in my mind into one “grand” experience. A Grand Budapest momenton indeed. n Hotel Budapest, For moreHotel information Corinthia see www.corinthia.com

The Royal Spa’s 15-metre pool encourages relaxation, and I slip in and out of the surrounding steam baths and sauna before my spa appointment. The deep muscle massage leaves me deliciously limp, the ESPA oils wafting a pleasant scented as I drift back to my suite for an evening at rest.
Before I depart, I have time for lunch at the hotel’s Brasserie and Atrium Restaurant, with its soaring glass ceiling. The Caesar Salad Soup has me intrigued, but I can’t ignore the duo of grilled asparagus with goat cheese, poached quail eggs and lemon mayonnaise. It’s everything it should be and more, the goat cheese ball perched on top of the fresh asparagus stems, drizzled with mayonnaise, and the egg adds a bright burst of yellow when I slice into its tenderness. The main of mangalica tenderloin, a Hungarian pork, is cooked sous vide, sealing in the succulent flavours, and is complemented with servings of pickled strawberries, baby fennel and pommes duchesse. I shouldn’t have dessert, but I can’t resist the milk chocolate caramel slice with salted hazelnut and chocolate sauce. It’s worth every creamy mouthful.

HIGH-TECH IN HILTON IN A VILLAGE IN CAMBRIDGESHIRE WAITS A PROPERTY LIKE NO OTHER. CONTEMPORARY CHIC MEETS TECHNOLOGY HEAD ON IN THIS WELL-PLANNED LUXURIOUS HOME. MICHAELA WHITE HEADS TO HILTON.
T
he picturesque village of Hilton in Cambridgeshire sits around 11 miles northwest of Cambridge. Like the turf maze on the village green, there’s more to this village than meets the eye. The maze, cut by Royalist William Sparrow in 1660 to commemorate the Restoration of Charles II to the throne following the end of Oliver Cromwell’s rule, is one of only eight remaining in England, and its village home is an equally exceptional place to reside.
PROPERTY FEATURE EXCLUSIVE HOME WORLDWIDE
Set back from the village green, behind twin gates within 1.3 acres of mature landscaped grounds is an outstanding, well-appointed family home. Beech’s Maze is expansive, approaching 9,000 square feet. Fitted with the latest technology and high-end fittings throughout, the exterior of this contemporary property belies little of the luxury inside. A special retracting cellar glass door and a deluxe cinema room are just a taste of what this spectacular home has to offer.
22
Well back from public view, just a few minutes from the village shop, this home features fabulous views from the rear of the property. “This house is in a very special position. The tranquility of this spot is hard to beat. It’s very secluded giving us a great amount of privacy,” says the owner. This special area, in the heart of Hilton, was also recognised by William Parker Dyson, who had a great influence on properties across Cambridge and Hilton in the 1930’s modernist movement. The centre of the village is a short walk from the house and has a post office with a shop, two churches and a pub. There is a larger range of local shops in the nearby villages of Fenstanton and Papworth Everard and supermarkets at Bar Hill and Huntingdon. Cambridge, with its theatres and new shopping centre is about 15 minutes’ drive, making Hilton a convenient rural base with access to all the amenities needed. There are also a number of golf courses close by, at Hemingford Abbots, Brampton, St Ives and St. Neots. “We love the peaceful setting of Beech’s Maze, yet at the same time we have the advantage of a superb road and rail infrastructure to London just a few miles away,” the owner says. The property was designed by an award-winning, architect, whose influence is felt from the outset. The house benefits from extensive bespoke features, including staircases, doors, kitchen and fitted furniture, and it is highly energy efficient and eco-friendly. From the approach to the house,

A CITY ON THE RISE 26
FROM BRUNEL TO BANKSY TO THE REVAMPED HARBOUR AND A THRIVING MUSIC SCENE, THE GRITTY CITY OF BRISTOL IS ON THE UP-AND-UP. GISELLE WHITEAKER EXPLORES THE WEST COUNTRY’S CAPITAL. We’re holding first-class tickets on the First Great Western service to Bristol, giving us access to the First Great Western Lounge. Relaxing over coffee while we wait to board, I realise that I have no mental image of England’s sixth largest city and the departure point of John Cabot on his way to claiming the title of the first European to land at North America in 1497. Neither my mother, Judy, or I have been there before. That’s a good enough reason to go and see what the port city has to offer. We’re pleasantly surprised when the First Great Western train pulls in to Bristol Temple Meads Station. Originally opened in 1840, the majority of this impressive structure is Grade I Listed. Naturally, it’s been expanded and refurbished in the intervening years, but the façade continues to reflect the railways’ monumental style at the start of the heyday of train travel. It’s a fitting introduction to Bristol’s collection of architecture, including 51 Grade I Listed buildings, 500 Grade II* Listed and over 3,800 Grade II Listed
buildings. The city even has its own unique architectural style developed in the mid-19th Century – Bristol Byzantine – and several hardy examples endure, resisting both the heavy bombing during the Bristol Blitz and the passage of time. A short bus ride and we’re at the revitalised harbour quarter, checking in to The Bristol Hotel. A Doyle Collection Hotel, the four-star establishment is right on the waterfront, in the heart of a thriving restaurant, nightlife and arts scene. A quick coffee in the comfortable lounge and we’re ready to start our exploration, orienting ourselves with a stroll around the neighbourhood. We cross Queen Square, where a festival is being set-up, before circling back to the riverfront. On the far side of Pero’s Bridge, we amble past many of the city’s popular watering holes, detouring into Millennium Square, dotted with recycled-art projects including a massive whale sculpture made of willow and 70,000 plastic bottles, designed to mark the city’s status as recipient of the 2015 European Green Capital Award.

Back on the riverbank, we catch a glimpse of Brunel’s SS Great Britain across the water’s expanse, the masts of the former passenger steamship, the first iron steamer to cross the Atlantic, belying its location. We continue along the walking path around the harbour and stumble across a work of Banksy’s, the 2014 Girl with the Pierced Eardrum. It’s oddly beautiful in its back alley location and inspires us to seek out more of the street artist’s work, in what is widely believed to be his home town. Circling around the Cumberland Basin more artistry is visible, this time in the form of a horizon of brightly coloured Victorian terraced houses lined up on the hill overlooking the river in the suburb of Totterdown. Eventually, we reach the gates protecting the SS Great Britain, now closed for the night. Paying 80 pence to skip back across the waterway, we pop in to Brigstow Lounge, a relative newcomer to Bristol’s dining scene. It’s relaxed and friendly and the contemporary dishes are beautifully presented, simple, yet exquisitely flavoured. It’s rare to find food this good by chance. After licking the final smears of the stewed rhubarb and chocolate mousse dessert from our spoons, we depart for the brief walk back to The Bristol Hotel, with shared smiles at our serendipity. After a comfortable night’s sleep, a quick gym workout, and a filling breakfast, we’re ready to explore the city further. The weather is not playing along. The skies are grey and rain is bucketing down, washing the streets and those who dare walk them. Undeterred, we borrow enormous umbrellas from The Bristol Hotel’s reception desk and splash through the puddles on a self-guided tour of Banksy’s street art. Banksy’s infamous The Grim Reaper, was originally painted on the side of the Thekla Social boat moored in Bristol harbour. Now, to protect it from wear and tear, it is housed in M Shed, as is a fascinating collection of 3,000 eclectic artefacts that tell an insider history of Bristol. It’s minutes away from The Bristol Hotel, but our toes are already damp by the time we enter the former dockside transit shed. We’re aiming to find The Grim Reaper and depart, but we get sidetracked – it’s that kind of place. It takes quite some time for us to re-emerge in readiness for our next work of art.

Banksy’s Paint Pot Angel, a statue of an angel with a pink paint tin upended on her head, was placed in the front hall of the museum for the 2009 ‘Banksy versus the Bristol Museum’ exhibition. The exhibition is long gone, but the angel remains, underneath a Bristol Biplane replica hanging from the ceiling that was made in 1963 for the film Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines.

Our next target is Stokes Croft, an area known for its plethora of street art. Here our navigation skills fail, leading us through a few leafy suburbs on an extended route, before we are faced with The Mild, Mild West. This Banksy piece depicts a huge, smiling teddy bear with a Molotov cocktail in his paw, facing three policemen holding up riot shields. There are plenty of up-and-coming graffiti artists at work in this neighbourhood, too. Murals adorn many a wall and doorway, making it a riot of colour. ESCAPES EXCLUSIVE HOME WORLDWIDE
Feeling somewhat soggy from the non-stop rain, we stroll through a shopping district on our way back to the The Bristol Hotel, ducking in and out of high-street style stores. A quick change of clothes and we rush back into the streets, the rain now a drizzle, to Tobacco Factory Theatres. As the name suggests, this former tobacco factory, built between the late 19th and early 20th Century, is now home to two intimate theatres and a jam-packed programme of diverse shows, workshops and events. We score tickets to a double act of comedy and spend the evening giggling. It’s a lovely end to the day.

By morning, the rain has cleared. There are blue skies overhead and the sun is drying the last of the sidewalk swimming holes. We have just enough time to swing by the Clifton Suspension Bridge, a Grade I-structure that spans the picturesque Avon Gorge. There’s something awe-inspiring about this engineering marvel and we could easily spend longer here, but we have a train to catch. There’s so much more to Bristol than meets the eye. We’ve barely scratched the surface of the city that spawned Portishead, Tricky, Massive Attack, and Wallace and Gromit. There are boat tours, art galleries and entire districts to be discovered. Just like the sun, Bristol is rising, and it’s a sight worth seeing. n

All of that with sophistication. Regarding the views, they are magnificent towards the countryside and you can see the sea from a distance.

The Dell is a small community of like-minded people and is located in a gated, secluded position on the village’s premier road. It is only 100 metres or so from the Bishopsgate entrance of Windsor Great Park and its northern boundary adjoins the famous Deer Park. The grounds extend to approximately 10 acres and, in addition to the Water Gardens, have well-manicured lawns, numerous specimen rhododendrons and trees together with other shrubs and plants, all for the quiet enjoyment and exclusive use of its residents. No.9 enjoys the largest and most secluded plot at The Dell. Thanks to the vision of the current owner, it has been sympathetically extended and totally refurbished to the highest standards providing the ultimate in luxury living. The interior, which oozes elegance and quality, was designed by Alexander James, an organisation often used by the rich and famous in the Wentworth area. No expense has been spared as it was the vendor’s plan to downsize and retire to this property, though circumstances have since changed. The property would probably suit those with a similar plan or a professional couple who like the security of a ‘lock up and go’ and/or second home.

A STRATEGY FOR SUCCESS
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.
PROFESSIONAL PROPERTY MARKETING ON A LOCAL, REGIONAL, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL LEVEL.
