WITHIN THIS EDITION...

Welcome To the new edition of the Fine & Country Collection magazine from the Kingswood office.

As we enter the second quarter of 2021, there is optimism for the light which can be seen glimmering at the end of the tunnel. Although our ways of life have transformed - in many ways irreversibly - we will emerge with an appreciation for what really matters in our lives.

This newfound clarity may be the perfect reason to assert change in your life, and your home.

In the 2021 budget, Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced that the Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) holiday will be extended until 30 June 2021 after pressure to extend the deadline by three months. Sunak confirmed that buyers hoping to make the most of the savings of the higher £500,000 nil-rate band will now have until the end of June to complete sales in England and Northern Ireland. From the end of June until the end of September 2021, the nil-rate band will reduce from £500,000 to £250,000.

ollowing the recent launches of the new Bentayga V8 and Bentayga Speed, the new Bentayga Hybrid becomes the third model in the most successful luxury SUV portfolio the segment has ever seen.

F

The new exterior and interior design emphasises Bentley design DNA across the entire model range, giving Bentley the freshest and most modern product family of any luxury car company.

The new Bentayga Hybrid offers the ultimate in electric luxury, with smooth and silent progress through urban environments, whilst having the grand touring capability to escape the city and explore further.

Customers of the Bentayga Hybrid can escape the noise of the city through the refined and acoustically-isolated serenity of the cabin without engine interference, using up to 31 miles of electric-only range (NEDC), before physically leaving the city behind with the comfort of a total combined range of 536 miles (NEDC).

Delivering the same level of comfort and luxury, yet with a quieter and more refined driving experience, the Bentayga Hybrid brings a selection of new technologies and connected car services, positioning the new product as the most technically advanced Bentayga to date.

Introducing the very latest on-board technology and an even more cosseting cabin, the new Bentayga is significantly revised both inside and out from the previous generation.

Subtle exterior badging complements the new Bentayga’s exterior design now prevalent across the entire model range, giving Bentley the

BENTLEY BENTAYGA HYBRID COLLECTION MAGAZINE

freshest and most modern product family of any luxury car company.

Chairman and Chief Executive of Bentley Motors, Adrian Hallmark, comments: “The Bentayga Hybrid is the next step on our journey to becoming the world’s leading sustainable luxury mobility company. Bentley will transform from a 100-year-old luxury car company to a new, sustainable, wholly ethical role model for luxury, and the Bentayga Hybrid is the first model to pioneer our company’s recently announced Beyond100 strategy.”

17

Bentley’s research shows over 90 per cent of customers use their firstgeneration Bentayga Hybrid on a daily basis or several times a week, and nearly 100 per cent of customers use EV mode, with half of them consistently undertaking journeys of less than 30 miles.

During previous retailer training, 78 per cent zero emissions journeys were achieved regularly over a 500 mile activity. In a more urban environment, one of Bentley’s development drivers achieved 67 per cent zero emissions over 672 miles around San Francisco, and in the UK, Chris Cole – Project Leader for the Bentayga Hybrid achieved 64 per cent zero emissions commuting to and from the factory.

In real world terms, the majority of journeys can be achieved completely in electric only, with zero emissions, delivering more benefits environmentally and building on Bentley’s new reputation for sustainability for the future.

BLUE FOREST COLLECTION MAGAZINE

A TREERIFIC

ESCAPE n 2003, after graduating with a degree in Business and Design, Andy, along with his brother Simon were asked to design and build a walkway suspended high above the Mida Creek mangroves in Kenya. Once Andy started showing photos of their work to his UK friends, he saw the excitement that it inspired and so Blue Forest was born.

I

What’s more, they absolutely love doing it.

BLUE FOREST COLLECTION MAGAZINE

For many people owning an incredible hideaway up in the trees is something they only got to dream about as children. But there’s absolutely nothing stopping you from having your own magical treehouse in your garden, and Blue Forest can make it as amazing and awe-inspiring as you want it to be.

And for those who do not have any trees, or prefer to keep their feet firmly on the ground, they also design amazing ground based structures perfect for home offices, yoga studios, creative hubs and even hobbit holes! Not all their designs need to be lofty abodes, and they have recently designed a Down to Earth Collection of ground based structures that would fit in perfectly within any garden setting. This collection is designed to offer an alternative solution to the standard home office – why should working from home be boring? The ground based structures eliminate the need for planning permission, making them an attractive alternative while still keeping all the charm and character of one of their treehouses.

They always say ‘if you can imagine it, we can build it’. The highly

skilled team of specialist designers will take time to understand what you want and will work with you to design a bespoke treehouse or home office that’s perfect for you. They will use their expertise to suggest additional elements and features that you might not have thought of. They’re a creative bunch and love nothing better than to push the limits of design.

Have you always wanted a secret room hidden behind a bookcase door? No problem. What about a secret escape tunnel leading out of the room? Great.You’d love a family living space up in the trees?

Excellent, or how about a hobbit hole with it’s own wood burning stove and outdoor firepit, the perfect escape for any Bilbo Baggins fan. The team believe in making your dream a reality but as treehouse experts, they know that it’s also their job to show you what else is possible.

Blue Forest also offers a unique interior design service. In the world of treehouses and hobbit holes, the little personal touches are just as important as the bigger things. From hand-crafted swing seats to personalised fairy doors and home cinema screens, they add a personal touch to every project.

So, sit back and let your imagination run wild – and they’ll take care of the rest.

AUTHENTIC

Spanish Cooking fter the family's move to Spain in 2015 for Phil to work at Valencia Football Club, Julie was captivated by the Spanish culture, their love for food and cooking and their use of fresh local ingredients. This resulted in her working in a wide range for Spanish restaurants for two years and the creation of her latest book “Authentic Spanish Cooking”. Now relocated in the UK but keen to share all that she has learnt.

A

“Up until three years ago I was confident that I had experienced true Spanish cooking bringing together the many flavours of the Mediterranean – and its health benefits too. I had holidayed many times in this incredible country and sampled many traditional dishes and there are numerous lovely Spanish restaurants emerging all over the UK now too.

Moving to Spain in 2015 made me quickly realise that I had not even scratched the surface and that the types of foods the Spanish eat, when they eat, their cooking methods and their use of herbs, spices,

oils and locally produced foods was so incredibly different to anything I had tasted or experienced before.

My quest to learn as much as I could during my time in Spain about their food and culture resulted in me working in a wide range of incredible restaurants, some Michelin Star with award winning chefs and others only the locals would know where the grandmother is still cooking her famous recipes in what was her original house 60 years earlier. Some in the city, some by the beach and others hidden in the mountains.

Collaborating with many of the restaurants in which I worked, I have now brought to you Authentic Spanish Cooking which shares the recipes of restaurant quality food that you can easily recreate in your own home using traditional ingredients and methods. With each restaurant we have provided their most popular dishes including a starter, main course and dessert.” Julie Neville.

Smoked cod croquettes The ingredients in this dish are simply wonderful. The low calorie, omega 3 rich cod, the anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory garlic, the eggs rich in vitamin D and protein, the antioxidant rich paprika and the detoxifying, immune and digestion boosting onions.

However, these are fried and therefore are a two star health rated dish.

Ingredients for 20 Croquettes Allowing two per person Cooking 50 minutes

3 large potatoes boiled (the size of a jacket potato) 400g smoked cod 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 tablespoon of minced cooked onion 1 tablespoon paprika 3 egg yolks 3 egg whites

1. Boil the potatoes in their skins then when soft squeeze them through a sieve to provide a soft fine potato.

2. Place in a bowl and add the onion, garlic, paprika, cod and egg yolks and mix well. Beat the egg whites with a little water.

3. Form the potato mixture into croquette shapes, soak for a moment in the egg white mixture before frying in a well oiled pan (sunflower oil works well and it has to be really hot) until golden brown on all sides.

Cinnamon cream with warm chocolate sauce The milk in this recipe provides calcium and some protein and the egg yolks are a rare food source of vitamin D as well as boosting cognitive and memory function and heart health.

That said, this recipe is also high in fat, sugar and calories and so it has a treat rating.
