ith its vibrant pedestrianised shopping precinct, numerous eateries and pubs, Torquay Golf Club, medical centres, Churches, highly regarded Schools and local beaches it is clear to see why St Marychurch is a gem within beautiful Torbay’s crown.

2014 has been an exciting year at our busy office for property transactions within St Marychurch, ever popular due to the wonderful array of amenities and leisure facilities enviably found on the level which is rare amongst Torquay’s seven hills!

Whilst many districts have seen a slowdown in property demand and price realisation for a variety of reasons, St Marychurch has weathered the storm and remains one of the Torbay’s most sought after addresses, although the three P’s remain key to a successful sale or rental… ‘price’, ‘presentation’ and ‘promotion’.

St Marychurch boasts a wide se-

lection of property types with demand for quality garden apartments and those ever elusive bungalows on the level being high on retirement buyers’ wish lists.

Quaint cottages and terraced/semi-detached houses prove popular for young families, couples and those seeking a relatively safe buy-to-let where long term capital growth is favoured over an instant high yield on investment. Fine detached homes from circa £400,000+ are also richly sought.

Our expanding lettings department is matching our sales team and experiencing high demand for well-presented homes close to our busy office. Helen and Steven have successfully secured quality tenants on a variety of property types in the last couple of months with stylish apartments and family homes priced between £600 to £1000 per calendar month proving most desirable.”

Greer sees village as a great place to raise a family

WOOLSTEN FIELDS: BLOOR HOMES

PROUD MUM: GREER CAMPBELL WITH HER DAUGHTER SOPHIE ON HER WEDDING DAY

Local resident GREER CAMPBELL works at Gilbert's pet shop in the precinct, lives in Priory Road and runs the St Marychurch Precinct Facebook page, she has raised her family in St Marychurch

G

reer Cambell tells property editor Tracy Gwynne, “I have been in love St Marychurch since my son started pre school at the Abbey school in 1989, followed by my daughter and then they both attended St Marychurch school.

“I have worked at Gilbert's pet shop in the precinct for over 19 years now, and live in Priory Road.

“St Marychurch has the feel of a small village you can't walk from the top to the bottom without saying hello

to someone you know, GREER C AMPBEL people are so friendly and L: ST MARY RESIDENT CHURCH will look out for those who need it.

“The shop keepers are friendly and treat you with old school values you don't expect in the hustle home cooked style food or just a cup of and bustle of our modern world. You coffee and a slice of cake.

There are two beautiful beaches will find everything you will ever need within St Marychurch, whether that's within walking distance, and beaufresh meat, cheese, fish vegetables or tiful gardens to enjoy. It really is in my opinion the best place in the world to bread.

“With wonderful places to get fresh live and work.”

PEDESTRIANISED: POPULAR ST MARYCHURCH PRECINCT

What’s great about your area?

A

ward winning housebuilder, Bloor Homes, which operates the Woolston Fields development in Loddiswell is launching a campaign with local school children that celebrates all that is great about living in Loddiswell.

With an aspiration to building inclusive, engaged communities surrounding its developments, the developer is asking local school children to share what they think makes Loddiswell the perfect place to call home.

Bloor Homes has launched the initiative following recent research*, which indicates that living in a small, friendly and safe community ranked as the most important factor when considering the location of our ideal home, whilst having relatives and amenities nearby is also of significant importance.

Bloor Homes will be putting the theory to the test with primary school children in and around Loddiswell; asking the homeowners of the future to submit an image which illustrates what makes Loddiswell their perfect place.

Michele Rose, sales director for Bloor Homes South West explains: “We appreciate that everyone’s perception of ‘perfect’ is different and we would really love to hear from children as to what it is they enjoy the most about their local community. It might be spending time with friends in a nearby playground, going for a walk or a bike ride in the countryside or just having a meal out with the family in their favourite local restaurant.”

To take part, children between the ages of five and 11 simply need to send their illustration, along with their name, age, address, contact phone number and a caption explaining where their perfect place in Loddiswell is, to Bloor Homes Press Office, McCann, Communications House, Highlands Road, Shirley, Solihull, B90 4WE or email their entry to bloorhomespr@mccann.com.

All entries received on or before 31 December 2014 will be entered into a competition to win book tokens worth £50, whilst the school of the winning child in each region will also receive £200 worth of art equipment.

Michele concludes: “It is our aim to create the perfect place in which people aspire to live. As such, Bloor Homes recognises the importance of not only developing quality and bespoke designs but also supporting the communities in which we build.

“We are therefore delighted to be able to launch a competition which not only involves local children but also has the opportunity to benefit a school in the local area.”

Find your perfect place at Woolston Fields At Woolston Fields, purchasers can select from a range of three, four and five bedroom properties, available from £234,950. The development is ideally located within the charming rural village of Loddiswell, situated in the South Hams district of Devon – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village also benefits from a variety of amenities including a post office, supermarket and village pub.

For commuters, Plymouth and Exeter can be reached easily via the A38, whilst the M5 is just a few minutes’ drive from the development, having excellent links with the UK’s major motorway network.

For more information about the development, contact the marketing suite located on Woolston Fields, Loddiswell, Kingsbridge, Devon TQ7 4RL (open from 10am to 5pm daily). Alternatively call 01548 550052 or email woolstonfields@bloorhomes.com.

Luxury homes open to view CORBYN SANDS, PARKHILL ROAD, TORQUAY

Launch day Saturday November 29

T

he English Riviera is a resort in the truest sense of the word, attracting visitors of all ages and interests throughout the year. Undergoing a water front regeneration and a number of new attraction and accommodation schemes, Torquay has something for everyone and for all ages, at all times of the year!

It was the Victorians who first used the Riviera name to describe their favourite resort and their legacy remains to this day with sparkling white villas perched on the verdant hilltops, beautiful gardens around the seafront and elegant Victorian facades along the main streets. Don’t be fooled by the Victorian ancestry however, Torquay is also a vibrant and forward thinking resort attracting visitors of all interests, from Art and Culture afficionados to marine enthusiasts.

Torquay’s famous seven hills provide the backdrop to a waterfront scene that matches anything you’ll find on the French Riviera.

There are 22 miles of coastline, cliffs, coves and beaches and walks to rival any in the South West of England, with a climate that belongs somewhere much further south. There are opportunities for surfing, safe swimming, diving, sailing, angling and wonderful opportunities to study the natural wildlife at your leisure.

Stunning views are to be seen just about every where across the Bay, out over the English Channel, along the 40 miles of Lyme Bay to Portland Bill or inland towards the Tors of Dartmoor. Torquay is an ideal base from which to visit Dartmouth, Totnes, Exeter and Plymouth, all of which are only a few miles away.

Torquay is a place to relax, to soak up the atmosphere, to take in the scenery, the parks and the gardens and to enjoy the experience of a holiday in a classical English seaside resort, at all times of the year.

Sporting opportunities abound and there is a complete range of accommodation to suit every taste and budget. A rich variety of evening entertainment is

LIVELY: Torquay harbour and international marina

GREAT BACKDROP: The illuminated bridge at Torquay Harbour provided throughout the Bay, all year round.

Torquay’s waterfront is the focus of life in the town.

Here you’ll find the palm-lined promenade, seafront gardens, a lively harbour and an international marina.

The Living Coasts attraction adds to the variety of the new waterfront and the illuminated bridge is a great backdrop to a relaxing evening drink. Yet within minutes of the town centre there are beautiful beaches that are easily accessible by foot, road or sea.

There is an abundance of pavement cafes, pubs, restaurants and nightlife, good quality shops and a host of exciting attractions to suit every interest.

Along the 22 miles of English Riviera coastline are 19 beaches and coves. Some, close to the town centre are wide, open stretches of sand with beach facilities such as cafes, beach huts and watersports. Many are smaller and more secluded.

Several of the beaches hold coveted awards for cleanliness and water quality. Torbay is a naturally sheltered bay, creating a safe haven for ships of all shapes and sizes in stormy weather. Occasional easterly winds create our own winter storms however and this is when beachcombers make their best finds.

CORBYN SANDS: See the views from the balcony Stretching from the south side of Brixham to Maidencombe, the coast path around the bay offers excellent and varied walking, with circular walks or point-to-point, with spectacular views and an exotic range of flora and fauna.

With all this in mind, Corbyn Sands really is worth a viewing if you are looking for a new home in the Bay. Corbyn Sands is a fine development of five, three and four bedroom luxury homes with exceptional views across the bay.

The stunning new development is in Parkhill Road, Torquay.

Prices start from £595,000. Launch day Saturday November 29 from 10am to 2pm. Call now to make an appointment.

That's great to hear and we're very happy to use tradesmen that our landlords are familiar with, especially if they've worked on the property before. We do however have trusted tradespeople from all types of trades and in most cases we have 2 or 3 that can cover the maintenance of our managed properties. We have more than one person available to cover holidays, busy periods (try getting a gas engineer when everyone turns their boilers on again after the summer!) and illness. Unlike some letting agencies we do not add a percentage on for works carried out by our maintenance people. We firmly believe that a management fee should cover the cost of organising and monitoring the works, to do otherwise is just ripping off landlords.

South Devon College works with construction company to raise levels of English

S

EDUCATIONAL: HELEN BROWN (ENGLISH TUTOR AT SOUTH DEVON COLLEGE) WITH KIER STAFF

outh Devon College has been working with Kier Construction to improve the capability of its staff in English and key communication skills so that they can be more effective in the workplace.

Kier identified that in the past, although they have invested heavily in staff training, the focus has always been on technical skills and expertise, rather than on wider skills such as English.

They have recognised that there is a shortage of these skills which are necessary to deliver the quality of work which the construction industry now demands.

Staff have to complete risk assessments and method statements and communicate effectively with their teams.

Kier came to the conclusion that they needed to develop a programme to introduce these key skills into the skillset of their staff.

They called in South Devon College Business Advantage, who developed the tailor made Kier Functional English programme for their supervisory staff and for operatives.

First line managers, general foremen and supporting staff complete the City & Guilds Level 2 programme, both to improve their own skills but also so they can act as mentors for their teams.

Operatives complete the Level 1 programme, with one-to-one tuition for those needing extra support.

The benefits to each employee are already emerging; they are showing much greater confidence

and accuracy in completing their site risk assessments, method statements and worksheets.

The course has gone down well with their staff too; comments include: “I found the course very helpful, and it has helped me with my presentation skills”, “Best and most enjoyable course I’ve been on!”, “I feel I am more confident in delivering talks”, “It has helped me with my emails and how I write and structure them", and “Enjoyable; good support from teacher and Kier Management”.

Helen Brown, English tutor from South Devon College, who designed the programme with Kier Construction, also found developing and delivering the programme very rewarding: “We have developed a great relationship with Kier and it has been very rewarding to see the staff of the company being so proud of their achievements in improving their English and communication skills.

“We are very gratified to see the benefits which the company has identified through this programme, and look forward to developing it further in the future.”

These programmes are fully funded by the Government, dependent on eligibility.

Any companies who are thinking of developing tailor made programmes to improve staff levels of English, designed to meet the specific needs of their business while giving staff a valuable qualification in English, are welcome to contact Helen Brown at Helen.brown@southdevon.ac.uk or 07590 442264.

Award-winning affordable Totnes housing scheme

A

new affordable residential development in Culverdale in Totnes has won the award for Best Social or Affordable New Housing Development at the LABC Building Excellence Awards Grand Final – one of the most recognised events in the industry’s calendar.

DCH is one of the south west’s largest housing associations and its Culverdale housing scheme in Totnes was designed by LHC Architecture and built by Leadbitter, a Boygues UK company.

A panel of industry experts judged a list of highest quality projects from around England and Wales to reward the best in technical innovation, sustainability and design. The award was granted to the new development for not only addressing the need for affordable housing, but also for providing high quality homes of contemporary design in an area in need of regeneration. The scheme is made up of 100% affordable housing and embraces the principles of sustainability and green construction tenchinques.

Gareth Jones, Development Director for Affordable Housing at DCH said: “We are delighted by this prestigious award and the recognition that has been given to the project. We are

extremely proud of these much needed affordable homes that received financial investment from both South Hams Council and the Home and Communities Agency. High quality affordable housing has obvious social benefits providing accommodation for those who want to live and work locally but it also plays a key role in supporting the local economy.”

Culverdale has been developed in two phases providing 58 new homes in total. Phase two, which was put forward for the national LABC award has added 39 of these new homes: 24 rented properties and 15 shared ownership with a diverse mix of house types ranging from one bedroom flats to larger family homes. All of the homes have been designed and built to a high standard achieving Code for Sustainable Homes level four. The scheme benefitted from £1,100,000 investment from the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and £600,000 support from South Hams District Council.

DCH worked closely with South Hams District Council to design and deliver a scheme which met identified local needs, all are built well above the current regulatory standards and are well insulated to reduce heating costs.

Cllr Simon Wright, South Hams Executive Member for Environment and Housing said: “The South Hams District Council invested £600,000 into the delivery of this scheme and its real partnership working that brings about such valuable projects like Culverdale, which is sustainable and highly energy efficient with low running costs. We are delighted that it has achieved such national recognition.

This scheme has made a real difference to the lives of those who live in it and has also shown that affordable housing can also deliver great contemporary design.”

John Baulch, Group Director at LHC Architecture said: "This scheme began with a bold vision to provide highly sustainable affordable housing as well as improving the appeal and connectivity of the entire area. Recognition of Culverdale's success with a national award is a great accolade but seeing how it has become a vibrant extension to the Totnes community is really the greatest reward."

Chris Stevens, Regional Managing Director at Bouygues UK, added: “Culverdale is an impressive scheme, from concept to design and construction to affordability. The development is the result of a strong collaborative approach and this award is fitting recognition of our partnership with DCH and LHC Architecture, which has delivered much-needed, high quality, affordable and environment-

ally sustainable housing for local residents here in Totnes.”

LABC Chief Executive Paul Everall said: “This project shows how social and affordable housing can can be innovative in design whilst addressing local housing needs. Increasing the provision of affordable housing in a challenging suburban environment has helped widen regeneration aspirations in the area. The relationship and communciation with LABC’s Devon Building Control Partnership was proactive and timely, resulting in the delivery of a development of excellent quality.”

“Our building excellence awards are an opportunity for the trade to celebrate good practice. Our winners demonstrate how positive working relationships with local council building control teams achieve high qual-

ity, sustainable buildings. Our awards are unique because they recognise how this cooperation improves building standards and professionalism across the industry.”

This is the second award win for the scheme after Culverdale also won ‘Best Social or Affordable Housing Development’ in the regional LABC awards back in June.

The LABC Building Excellence Awards Grand Final took place on Tuesday November 11, at the Brewery in London and was hosted by writer, architect and television presenter, George Clarke.

Over 600 building industry professionals including contractors, architects and engineers attended the celebration to find out which projects won across the 13 hotly contested categories.

Four flats in Torquay due to go under the gavel

I

nvestors are expected to show keen interest in four flats in the Torquay area going under the auctioneer's gavel.The quartet are among 21 lots listed for sale by Clive Emson, the regional land and property auctioneers, next month.

They come under the hammer as the property

## ' ' !' ' ! '' ' * ! , ' )! ) ! ' + ' '' $ ,' ! ' '

' * - !' ' ' + ) &(" ... '

market continues to grow in the South West.

Graham Barton, auctioneer and regular on BBC Oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Homes Under The Hammer, said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are expecting keen interest from the investment community looking to add to their buy to let portfolio as well as from owner-occupiers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With interest rates still offering low returns on savings, land and property still offer some of the best returns on capital investment.â&#x20AC;?

Properties under the hammer include a spacious one-bedroom flat in a period building in Castle Chambers in Union Street, Torquay, with a leasehold guide price of ÂŁ75,000 to ÂŁ80,000.

It has the remainder of a 999-year lease from 2009 and a current ground rent of ÂŁ50 per annum.

Graham said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a spacious ground floor apartment in good decorative order in a stunning period building. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Recently let at ÂŁ495 per calendar month but now vacant, it will be of interest to investors and owner occupiers looking for a ready-to-go property.â&#x20AC;?

Also available is the freehold of mid-terrace building with three components currently producing a return of ÂŁ11,205 per annum.

With a guide of ÂŁ100,000 to ÂŁ110,000, the property is in Brunswick Terrace in Torre, Torquay with a mid-guide purchase representing a gross return of over 10.5%.

Its ground floor flat and maisonette are let, while a third flat has been sold on a long leasehold at a ground rental of ÂŁ25 per annum.

A studio flat in Torwood Street, Torquay, is going under the hammer with a leasehold guide

of ÂŁ47,000 to ÂŁ53,000 and is let at ÂŁ4,800 per annum which would represent a gross return of over 9.5% at a mid-guide purchase level.

It has the remainder of a 99-year lease from 1987 at a current ground rent of ÂŁ100 per annum.

In Paignton, a two-bedroom ground floor flat is

available in Station Lane with a leasehold guide of ÂŁ65,000 to ÂŁ80,000 on the remainder of a 999-year lease from 1986.

Starting at 11am, the final of Clive Emsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eight regional auctions in 2014 takes place at the St Mellion International Resort, St Mellion, Cornwall, on Thursday December 18.

Reduce the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning

P

ublic Health England is advising people to have their fossil fuel and wood burning appliances – such as boilers, heaters and cookers – checked by an appropriately registered engineer before winter sets in.

There are around 40 accidental deaths a year from carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning in England and Wales. It is difficult to detect because you can’t see, smell or taste it.

Dr Simon Bouffler of Public Health England’s Centre for Radiation, Chemical and Environmental Hazards (CRCE) said: “Many of these deaths take place between November and February due to faulty fossil fuel and wood burning appliances leaking this lethal gas.

These deaths are preventable.

“To lower the risk, PHE recommends that people should ensure that their fossil fuel and wood burning appliances are regularly checked by an appropriately registered engineer.

“In addition, people should fit an audible CO alarm which meets European Standards EN 50291 in each room containing an appliance, and ensure rooms are adequately ventilated.

“Public Health England recommends that people have these appliances and their flues checked before the start of winter.”

The installation of an alarm, which can be bought from most DIY retailers and supermarkets, should not, however, replace regular servicing of all fossil fuel and wood burning appliances by a registered engineer.

It is estimated that around 4,000 people attend accident and emergency departments in England each year because of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Although most of the 4,000 people would not be sick enough to be admitted to hospital, it is known that long-term exposure is associated with neurological effects - such as having difficulties in concentrating.

Dr Bouffler said: “Although carbon monoxide is difficult to detect, there are sometimes indicators that may suggest a fault with domestic appliances or flues.

“The signs of trouble are black sooty marks on the radiants – the clay bars above the gas flames – of gas fires, sooty marks on the wall around stoves, boilers or fires, and smoke accumulating in rooms due to faulty flues.

“In addition, yellow instead of blue flames from gas appliances is another sign that there may be a fault with the appliance - although this does not apply to ‘fuel-effect’, ‘living-flame’ or ‘decorative-flame’ gas fires as they are designed to look like flames from solid fuel appliances.

“If you see any of these signs, turn off your appliances, open your windows and have an appropriately registered engineer check the appliance as soon as possible.”

At high levels CO poisoning can cause sudden collapse, loss of consciousness and death.

Other symptoms of CO poisoning include headaches, drowsiness, dizziness, chest pains, nausea and vomiting.

If you are suffering any symptoms of CO poisoning, you should go outside and call NHS 111 for advice.

Five top tips for home maintenance Now winter's here, maintaining your home's exterior is more important than ever. JULIA GRAY shares her top tips on keeping things in shape in the cold weather.

1. Don't put off jobs The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings' (SPAB) National Maintenance Week (November 21-28) is an annual event designed to encourage owners of all sorts of buildings, not just ancient ones, to be aware of the importance of regular care.

Good maintenance is not only common sense though, it also makes economic sense, particularly at this time of year. Problems like leaking gutters and blocked drains don't mend themselves - the longer you ignore them, the more expensive and difficult they often become to put right.

2. Check for leaks and blockages Autumn's the time when drains and gutters can get blocked by leaves and debris like twigs and bird nests. If anything obstructs the easy flow of water away from a building, damp can occur. If you notice that water's falling sharply from a certain point on a gutter, there's probably a blockage there, so scoop it out with a trowel, taking full safety precautions if you're using a ladder. To stop gutters getting blocked, fit gutter guards, grates that block debris but still allow rainwater to get through.

CLEANING GUTTERS AT HOME: SPAB ROVING EDUCATION OFFICER, MARIANNE SUHR.

3. Inspect your home's roof for damaged or slipped tiles Check your roof from the inside by looking for chinks of daylight in the loft. Outside, you usually find that using a pair of binoculars helps you get a clear view of the roof. Even a relatively small gap in the tiles can let in enough water to cause damage, so address the problem before damage occurs, or spreads, by calling in a roofer.

4. Repair wooden windows Chipped, cracked and flaking paint can let in water, which eventually rots wood. If the wood's already suffering from wet rot, scrape out the worst of it, treat the rest with a wood-hardening liquid designed for wet rot, and fill with an exterior wood filler - Polycell Polyfilla for Wood Large Repairs (from £9.99, Homebase) is a professional-style twopart filler that's much easier to use than most.

Finally, sand and clean off the repair, and apply exterior wood paint.

5. Look over your home's exterior walls Missing pointing and damage to render and paintwork can cause damp inside. If there's moss or algae on an exterior wall, water is getting to it, perhaps from a dripping downpipe or gutter. Solve the problem and scrub off the growth. A good masonry paint, like those by Sandtex, provides all sorts of longlasting protection for exterior walls.

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK

A

powerful drill-driver or, better still, combi drill is a DIYer's best friend, and they don't come much better than the great-value Hitachi 12" 13mmm 18V Cordless Combi Drill DV 18DGL (product number 8652F, £99.99, Screwfix), which was designed exclusively for Screwfix in partnership with Hitachi.

This unbeatable drill has a built-in work light that's much brighter than most, and a very sensitive trigger, making it easy to control your drilling and PRODUCT OF THE WEEK: HITACHI 18V COMBI screwdriving speed.

DRILL It's also ergonomic and comfortable to hold, especially the slim 'neck', and comes with two 18V lithium-ion batteries, so you'll never be held up if you run out of charge mid-job. The batteries unclip very easily for charging, unlike many others, and because they're flat, you can stand the drill up when you put it down. This combi drill would make the perfect present for someone handy this Christmas and comes with a three-year manufacturer's warranty, which is hard to beat.

HOW-TO TIP

I

f your home has damp, but you're not sure what sort of damp it is, watch Ronseal's 'How to find and fix your damp problems' video at www.youtube.com/watch?v=V63XWGxdUEk. When you've solved the problem, treat the stain with Ronseal Anti Damp Paint (from £19.99 for 750ml, Homebase), which permanently blocks damp but allows trapped moisture to escape - see www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVMdxkvUzQ8.

This paint is oil-based but nice to use and fairly quick-drying - just make sure you brush it out well for a good finish. It can be recoated after just four hours, so you'll have the wall or ceiling back to ANTI DAMP PAINT: RONSEAL, HOMEBASE normal in no time.

PROPERTY WEEKLY interiors Make sure the setting is as tempting as the grub this Christmas. GABRIELLE FAGAN serves up top tips for festive dining decor.

Prepare for the festive season

T

here aren’t many who’d disagree; the festive feast is the highlight of Christmas Day. But whether you’re going for turkey, goose, nut-roast or something even more exotic as the focus of your meal, it’s the trimmings that really make it — and I’m not just talking roasties and honey-glazed parsnips.

The setting is almost as — or just as, some would say — important as the food being served.

Festive fun or Yueltide chic; it’s entirely up to you what mood you go for — and it doesn’t have to break the bank, or require a degree in interior design, to pull off.

Of course, you can invest in some wintry wonderland tableware if you want to; candelabras and some carefully-chosen tealight holders and gilded glassware certainly suit the occasion and are an easy way to make a setting special. There are also lots of budget-friendly buys; supermarkets, as well as shops like Wilko and even Poundland are great places to pick up festive table top decorations and charger plates and platters, as well as the compulsory napkins and table runners.

Get creative and don’t limit your imagination to the tabletop - how about hanging decorations above it, or arranging some Christmassy lighting on a mantelpiece for added ambience?

A glass bowl, filled with colourful baubles or pine cones and deep, red berries or springs of holly makes a striking centrepiece, and carefully-draped fairy lights can also be very effective. But whatever you do don’t forget the crackers.

Here are four popular Christmas Day dining deco themes to help you serve up some style...

GO FOR GOLD It may sometimes have a reputation for being a little ostentatious, but if there’s one day of the year when being flash and over-the-top is perfectly allowed — it’s Christmas.

More importantly, gold doesn’t have to be pompous; in fact it can be extremely subtle and sophisticated, especially if used in a softly-lit, romantic setting.

“After years in the design wilderness, gold is back with a vengeance. If you're not keen on investing in gold cutlery or glassware, paper tableware is an easy way to dip into the look,”says Clare Harris, managing director at Talking Tables.

“Once you’ve decided on your scheme, extend it beyond the table hang garlands over the fireplace and tie baubles to chair backs for added flair.”

TABLE TOP TIP: Think scale when creating a dramatic table setting, suggests Harris. “You don’t want to block guests’ views with huge candelabra or floral arrangements, but neither do you want the table to look too minimal. Baubles, battery-operated fairy lights and table scatter create an atmospheric glow, while decorative canape picks add interest.”

GET THE LOOK: You can dig up plenty of gold on the high street which, thankfully, doesn’t include price tags like those of the real thing.

Gold And Black Dinner Party Crackers, £7 for pack of six; Gold Charger Plate, £2, Tesco.

Talking Tables is a fantastic one-stop-shop for all your table-setting-heart could possibly desire.

Party Porcelain Gold Table Top Tree Decoration, £11; Party Porcelain Gold Individual Cracker, £20 for pack of 20, Talking Tables.

Another top dining deco destination is Wilko, where you can really go to town with a theme. Their Let’s Celebrate range features an endless array of gold items: Plates, from £3; Star Dish, from £3; Champagne Flute, £15 for pack of four; Table runner, £7; Teapot, £8; 2 Tier Cake Stand, £10.

Christmas is certainly a time to pull out those fancy accessories; OKA has a beautiful selection, including these Skeleton Leaf Coasters, £76 for set of

four.

Nothing says ‘special occasion’ like eating by candlelight, but make sure your candles are housed stylishly. Sitting Stag Tealights Holder, £79; Woodland Scene Cut-Out Tealight Holder, £7.50, Marks & Spencer.

SEEING RED It’s bold, it’s bright, and it’s ‘the’ colour of Christmas. For fans of a traditional setting, red is the go-to festive shade. The good news is that shops are always bursting at the seams with red decorations, which makes it ideal for those on a tight budget, as you can easily stock up on a red paper tablecloth and napkins, while some strategically placed baubles and tinsel can be all you need to create a striking scene. “A casual approach to decorating is more than acceptable at Christmas,” says Harris. “Save your china and linen for New Year and take the family-friendly approach with paper tablecloths, napkins and decorations.”

Scarlet can be sophisticated too. A simple, Scandinavian-inspired red and white theme is always pleasing and cosy, or offset a plain tablecloth with some red tartan dining accessories.

TABLE TOP TIP: You don’t have to buy everything new; chances are there are things in your home you can spruce up and put to use. “If you don't have a tablecloth that's big enough, use a single bed sheet to hang or drape over your table. They must be starched and pressed for a professional finish — and your guests will never know,” suggests Stuart McGinley, Villeroy & Boch’s lead stylist. A Pashmina scarf can also double up as a table runner and add texture to the scene.

GET THE LOOK: If you prefer Christmas in subtle doses, just adding accents of red to your table will inject some festive spirit and colour. A candelabra or trio of tall candle sticks are easy ways to make an impact. Antique Cut Glass Candelabra, £45; Snowflake Christmas Table Runner, £15, M&S. Match your glassware with the theme; Villeroy & Boch have a wide choice, and their Boston Coloured Red Wine Goblet, from £11.48, Amazon, would add a touch of drama.

12 Red Heart Crackers, £12, Next.

Wilko comes up trumps again in the red lane: Foil Tree Decoration Spotty, £1.25; Poppy Fields Bowls and Plates, from £1.50 each; Red Blush Glasses, from £1 each; Paper Snowflake Decoration, from £1; Honeycomb Ball Decoration, from £1; Table Runner Red, £4.

A HINT OF SILVER If there isn't enough sparkle on that tree, make the dining table dazzle with a silvery theme. This is a shade that can instantly evoke a party feel, but can equally look subtle and charming, particularly if combined with crisp, cool white.

“For the ultimate white and silver-themed table, start with classic white stoneware, simple white linen napkins and art-deco mirror chargers and coasters,” suggests Chrissie

FESTIVE TABLES: SET THE SCENE

Rucker, founder of The White Company. “Once you have that base, you can add as much, or as little, sparkle as you like. Arranging mercury and glass tea light and candle holders along the length of the table makes an understated yet stylish centrepiece, while white and silver paper decorations hung above the table will add a fabulous seasonal finish.”

TABLE TOP TIP: Non toxic indoor fireworks and ice fountains create a magical display during a meal, suggests Rucker. Display in an ice bucket or pop a couple of sparklers on top of the Christmas pudding. A sparkler beside every place setting will allow guests to join in the fun. Talking Tables has Table Sparklers, from £2.50 a box.

GET THE LOOK: Give your setting a subtle, silver edge with some gleaming bargain buys, like Poundland's Silver Charger Plate, £1.

House of Fraser's Linea range is a good port of call for silver-fishers: Silver Goblet Tealight Holder, £9.50-£10.50; Luxury Crystal Palace Ice Prism Crackers, currently £21 for set of six (reduced from £30).

For a chic approach, Next's silver accessories are ideal: Sequin Runner, £20; 12 Piece Metropolitan Stripe Dinner Set, £50; Set Of 4 Sequin Napkins, £8; Set Of 4 Metropolitan Wine Glasses, £26; Set Of 4 Silver Scratch Coasters, £8.

Make it all (silver and) white on the night, with a little help from The White Company. Their collection includes: Silver Concertina Balls, £15 for set of three; Snowflake Paper Decorations, £12 for set of three; Large Pillar Candle Holder, £45; Mini Star Etched Hurricane, £10; Pinecone Tealight Holder, £6.

RUSTIC CHARM Who hasn’t gazed longingly at those gorgeous, country cottage Christmas card images, wishing you could step right into that cosy scene and snuggle up by that roaring log fire, as a perfectly-decorated tree twinkles in the corner? Thankfully, a village postcode and exposed wooden beams aren't compulsory for creating a rustic, country-inspired look, and this certainly applies to dining tables.

“I like to keep things simple; if you have a lovely wooden table then you're half way there,” says print-maker and designer Cherith Harrison. “If not, don't fret! Wrapping a piece of bright red gingham ribbon around a chunky candle is effective and it won’t cost the earth.

“For a more formal occasion, small pine cones make for lovely name settings - the guest's name can be written on a piece of card that is then slotted

into the cone.”

TABLE TOP TIP: “Make a statement with a bold, quirky centre piece,” suggests Harrison. “eBay have a great range of bird cages at affordable prices. One of these filled with bright red and green apples will certainly get people talking. Mix up the textures by throwing in some twigs and spare pine cones too.”

GET THE LOOK: Get outdoors to source twigs, pine cones and holly; all vital rustic ingredients. Plenty of wholesome and pretty country fare can be found at Cherith Harrison, where wildlife takes centre stage: Festive Drinks Mats, £7.45 for pack of 10; Festive Paper Napkins, £3.25 for pack of 20.

If you can’t find the real thing, Sainsbury’s offerings look just as good: Pinecone & Red Berry Tree, £8; Large Pine Cone Candle, £15.

The ‘Winter Woodland’ collection at Sophie Allport really hits the mark: Table Runner, £18; Napkins, £12 for set of four; Cushion, £25; Mugs, from £9.50 each.

PREPARE FOR WINTER!

Monday morning saw the first frost of the winter in Torbay, although as is usual on the English Riviera it soon melted away to a day of clear blue skies! With the drop in temperatures now is the time for anyone looking after an empty property to carry out a few simple checks to make sure that there are no disasters as winter progresses. The greatest danger is from frozen water pipes. The only 100% certain way of avoiding this is to arrange for both the water and central heating systems to be drained down. Another option is to set the central heating to come on for a few hours each day, remembering that the coldest time is usually at night. Also check that there are no overflows dripping as these can easily freeze up and cause an overflow inside. It is also worth a look at the roof to make sure there are no loose slates or tiles which can be blown off in a winter storm. It is probably easier to get hold of a roofing contractor now, rather than repairing more serious damage after a winter gale. If you are selling, make your home as inviting as possible for a viewing. Sweep up the leaves outside and make sure the house is nice and warm. Turn on the lights if it is gloomy day - a warm brightly lit home is much more attractive to a potential buyer. P.S. Open house this Saturday at 12 Bidwell Brook Drive.

he River Shack Cafe is located between the beautiful River Dart estuary and the tranquil mill pond in Stoke Gabriel, a truly stunning and unique waterside location and is on the market with Bettesworths, award winning licensed property agents.

The historic village was recently featured in the Guardian Newspaper for being the UK’s top Crabbing Hotspot, making Stoke Gabriel not only an extremely popular tourist destination but also a great destination for locals to visit throughout the year.

The River Shack is fully licenced and currently holds a 5 star hygiene rating and has a modern ‘New England’ style décor, quality fixtures and fittings and a well-equipped commercial kitchen. The premises provide internal seating for 36 and outside seating for circa 70, there is a bespoke bar servery and take away service hatch all with stunning views overlooking the River Dart and the mill pond.

The business trades from the first half term holiday of the year through to the end of October, although there is genuine scope to extend the opening hours and therefore the turnover, with the business becoming more of a year round and evening destination. Currently run by one ‘hands on’ proprietor with the help of 2 full time staff and extra casual staff through the summer, the opening hours are 10.30 – 4pm seven days a week in the height of the season with the service hatch staying open till 5pm, the café then reopens at 6pm for the evening trade, last orders being at approximately 8pm.

hristie + Co, the specialist property adviser estimates that £46 million worth of hotel sales in South West England alone could be completed by the end of the year.

This is the view of Matthew Smith, Director at Christie + Co’s Exeter office, which is reporting a record breaking year in the transactional hotel market with significant interest from London and overseas buyers looking to take advantage of what is arguably one of the best regions for the hotel sector outside of the capital.

He comments: “Good quality hotels which have seen ongoing investment in the asset are now benefiting from the region’s increasing occupancy and improving room rate trends following on from the economic recovery”.

“We are experiencing a record breaking year in completed hotel transactions across Devon, Cornwall and Somerset.

To date, in 2014, we have completed transactions in excess of £35 million of hotel assets with a further £11 million in the pipeline due to complete in the next few months — a considerable increase compared to this time last year.”

The property specialists have become increasingly busy in the lead-up to Christmas with many sales across the region, including the sale of Brixham’s historic Churston Court Hotel, in excess of the £1m guide price.

Matthew Smith adds: “For the current year to date, we have witnessed hotel occupancy increase by up to 4%; average room rates up as much as 7% and RevPar now 12% ahead based on 2013 statistics. Demand for good quality hotels is the best that we have witnessed since 2007 and we have even seen the return of competitive bidding situations. It is now clear that shrewd investors and operators are looking to acquire businesses that can give them a better return than leaving their cash in the bank.”

recent study among social housing tenants in the UK reveals aspirations towards home ownership, with almost a third (29 per cent) hoping to move onto the property ladder to buy their own home in the future.

The Social Housing Tenants Study 2014 was conducted among more than 1,000 social housing tenants in the UK by The Rental Exchange, a partnership between ExperianÂŽ, the global information services company, and Big Issue Invest, the investment arm of The Big Issue.

With 4.8 million Britons living in social housing, the study found that on average, tenants typically reside in social housing for 12 years; and two-thirds of tenants today (66 per cent) have lived in social housing for more than a decade.

The aspiration to move out of social housing and own a property is an ambition found primarily among the young, with more than half (55 per cent) of those aged 18-34 years hoping to one day get on the housing ladder. This compares to just 30 per cent of those aged 35-54 years and only nine per cent of those aged 55+ years.

The Rental Exchange Study discovered that when thinking ahead to the future, while almost a third of social housing tenants hope to move into their own property, just over one in two (57 per cent) are

also happy staying in their current home.

This view is shared among 64 per cent of males and 54 per cent of females, and is highest among older age groups: 81 per cent of those aged 55+ years and 56 per cent of those aged 35-54 years, compared to just 24 per cent of 18-34 year olds.

Only four per cent of tenants hope to move out of social housing and rent privately and a further three per cent seek to be able to move out of their current social housing property which they live in with their family, and get their own social housing property.

The goal of the Rental Exchange is to help address the financial, digital and social exclusion challenges faced by many social housing tenants in the UK. Through the Rental Exchange, both social and private landlords will be able to submit information about their tenantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; payment history. In the same way as mortgage-holders are able to build a credit history, rental payments can now be factored into credit decisions, securely and compliantly, to significantly improve the level of insight available to help credit and service providers assess risk and affordability. This will ultimately help to open up access to more affordable credit for tenants by enabling them to more easily demonstrate their creditworthiness.

Jim Mullan, Group Chief Executive at the Big Issue, said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is great to be seeing further proof that information on tenants is interesting and valuable for credit providers in the UK. This is the single most exciting initiative that Big Issue Group is involved in at the moment because of the way so many parties benefit from the initiative. All of our partners in the social housing field are excited about improving the household economics of their tenantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thus increasing sustainability of tenancies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The social housing organisations involved in this phase of the scheme are not just sharing data to help address the problem of financial exclusion they are also becoming partners in this truly worthwhile initiative to support the lives of millions of people across the UK and improve levels of financial inclusion in many of our most socially and economically challenged communities.â&#x20AC;?

Jonathan Westley, Managing Director of Experianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s UK&I Consumer Information Services, commented: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Social housing tenants are a dynamic, broad mix of people who have varied aspirations for the future. On average, social housing tenants have lived in their homes for 12 years, yet their regular monthly payments are not taken into account when applying for credit in the same way that

Opening doors to your future since 1927

mortgage payments are for homeowners.

Rental Exchange will change this. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Millions of social housing tenants have little or no credit history, so have been excluded from affordable credit, or paid a premium for it. For credit providers to lend responsibly, and also prevent fraud, they need a more complete view of customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; financial commitments and payment history. When it comes to getting a mortgage in particular, affordability is crucial when making lending decisions. The addition of rental payment data will improve the insight available to make timely, accurate and responsible lending decisions.â&#x20AC;?

Analysis of social housing rental payment records shared with the Rental Exchange, found that the vast majority of social housing tenants (72 per cent) have no significant arrears on their rent, and this would positively impact their credit scores. When applied to all social housing tenants in the UK, this could mean that up to 3.5 million people could gain potential to access more affordable services and see their financial outlook improved.

Jonathan Westley concluded: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our analysis clearly shows the overwhelmingly positive impact that the Rental Exchange will have in helping address the problem of financial exclusion in the UK.â&#x20AC;? www.experian.co.uk/rental-exchange

I'VE GOT MY OWN ELECTRICIAN/GAS ENGINEER/ROOFER! That's great to hear and we're very happy to use tradesmen that our landlords are familiar with, especially if they've worked on the property before. We do however have trusted tradespeople from all types of trades and in most cases we have 2 or 3 that can cover the maintenance of our managed properties. We have more than one person available to cover holidays, busy periods (try getting a gas engineer when everyone turns their boilers on again after the summer!) and illness.

Unlike some letting agencies we do not add a percentage on for works carried out by our maintenance people. We firmly believe that a management fee should cover the cost of organising and monitoring the works, to do otherwise is just ripping off landlords.
