Inheritance Tax could still threaten your family’s prosperity Dale Murten Wealth Management is inviting readers to discover the simple yet highly effective steps you can take to protect your wealth and stay in control.
M
ore and more people are affected by IHT every year. It used to be a tax that was the preserve of the very wealthy, but escalating property values in the last ten years have put paid to that. For single people, Inheritance Tax applies at the top rate of 40% to assets worth over £325,000. This threshold is known as the nil rate band. For married couples and civil partnerships the threshold is £650,000. But the higher £650,000 limit only applies when assets are passed between spouses and civil partners and this figure reduces if any money is passed onto any of your benefactors during your lifetime. There are also other financial implications to consider, particularly if you are a widow, widower or divorcee.
And with the threshold remaining unchanged by the coalition government and subject to further legislation the
freeze will be extended up to and including the 2017/2018 tax year, more people could get sucked in as the minimum IHT threshold usually increases at a rate equivalent to at least inflation. Dale Murten of Dale Murten Wealth Management, a local Associate Partner Practice of St. James’s Place Wealth Management, is concerned that most people do not understand the implications of IHT. “It’s clear that people are confused by IHT policy and many mistakenly believe they are unlikely to be affected by it,” he said. And he is also concerned about a potentially more serious knock-on effect. “AWill* is vital in helping mitigate IHT,” said Dale. “Without a proper Will, people run the risk of their estate being severely reduced through IHT and also leaving

themselves exposed to the ravages of long term care costs later in life. It’s now more important than ever to seek professional advice and establish how you can protect your hard earned assets.” If you are uncertain about how you stand regarding IHT and would like to know more about how to prevent much of your money falling into the hands of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs, or your Local Authority through Long Term Care fees, please contact Dale Murten Wealth Management.

Banish the wrinkles Smooth away the signs of ageing with the expert help of Gaynor Waddington at Face Facts.
O
nce the preserve of the rich and famous, Botox® is now loved by millions of people worldwide. Used to soften and smooth expression lines by relaxing the muscles through a series of small injections, it is a highly effective way of addressing the signs of ageing without going under the knife. Results are visible in just two to ten days and often last for up to three to four months. In 2004, after years of NHS clinical work, Gaynor Waddington became one of the first independent nurse prescribers. Now, as an advanced trained practitioner with 11 years of injecting experience, she is proud to continue to offer top quality cosmetic injectable treatments and dermal fillers at Face Facts – a luxury medical spa located in the beautiful Dower House Square in Bawtry. Eastside sales executive Rebecca Hume knows first hand how fantastic the Face Facts experience is, having been thrilled with her dermal lip fillers last year. This month, she returned to Gaynor to smooth out the lines and wrinkles in three key areas of her face – mid brow, forehead and around the eyes Before there was any sight of a needle, however, Gaynor had some important questions to ask. “Talking is the most important and lengthy part of the process,” she explains. “Patients deserve quality time to talk about their areas

Sheer relaxation Clumber Park Hotel and Spa is the ideal place to kick back, chill out and enjoy some very special me time. Words: Fiona Barber
E
very now and then the freedom seeker within us has the urge to get away. Although a trip to the tropics is the ideal way to unwind, such an expedition takes time, money and effort to plan. A trip to a spa, however, has many of the same relaxation benefits at just a fraction of the cost Located just down the road from the impressive Clumber Park, the aptly named Clumber Park Hotel and Spa is the ideal place to spend a few hours – or even days – unwinding. The hotel’s New Leaf Spa offers tranquil surroundings, a swimming pool, sauna, steam room and even an outside Jacuzzi. On arrival we were welcomed by smartly dressed staff and given robes and slippers to change into before whiling away a couple of hours steaming and soaking ourselves and relaxing around the pool. Prior to my treatment – a 25-minute Elemis skin-booster facial – I was asked to fill out a questionnaire about my skin and this was used to tailor the facial to my skin type. These skin-booster facials are uniquely designed for maximum results in minimum time. Beautician Rebecca began by removing my makeup with the white flowers eye and makeup remover – a gentle formula with a cooling hydrating effect. A lavender toner was applied to clarify my complexion then Rebecca gently scrubbed my face with a rose gel exfoliator with soothing cucumber, and Jojoba beads, which left my skin feeling soft and moisturised.

Liz at Elizabeth Ann Therapies asks: what is LaStone Therapy?
L
aStone Therapy is a wonderfully relaxing Native American treatment based on the principles of geothermotherapy – alternating the application of heated and chilled stones – to the body. It delivers through deep, penetrating massage techniques and highly effective energy work, creating a balance and harmony on all levels. It is all about creating physical and spiritual healing within the mind, body and spirit. Geothermotherapy stimulates the circulation, increases the metabolism, increases lymph function and relaxes the muscles in order to reduce tension. The LaStone treatment involves stones being placed on certain chakra points to facilitate healing on a spiritual and emotional level. A client will start off by lying on a bed of heated stones before the treatment called a spinal layout begins. This is an ancient ritual where energy work is followed by a deep, penetrating massage with the stones. Why are hot and cold stones used? Cold stones have an analgesic effect and can relieve pain; the temperature change also helps increase circulation and oxygenation of blood. It reduces inflammation and also helps relax muscles. Then when heat is used it increases metabolism, and lymph function. Hot and cold together have a much more profound effect than just using heat alone.
Q&A: Send your wellbeing questions to Liz @ ElizabethAnn61@live.co.uk One will be chosen and published monthly. Dear Liz I feel out-of-sorts, lethargic and listless and I can't explain why. I feel very demotivated all the time and am not enjoying life at all at the moment, although I have no real reason to feel like this. I have a good family, a good job and no reason to feel unhappy, but am increasingly discontented, I don't like feeling like this way, my wife says I have to shake myself out of this mood. Tom, Retford. Dear Tom It sounds like you're completely out of balance emotionally, physically and spiritually. The LaStone therapy mentioned in my article above would be a very good therapy for you, as it will balance out your body’s systems. The Reflexology LaStone may be the one I would suggest you try, as we could work on specific areas of congestion in order to balance and facilitate healing, which also helps with energy levels and motivation. All the above are availabe with me at The Vanilla Rooms Bawtry. Clinical Hypnotherapist/Complementary Healthcare Practitioner and Weight Management Consultant.

Mesotherapy can help combat the devastating effects of hair loss as we grow older.
A
s our bodies age, naturally occurring substances such as vitamins, amino-acids and minerals decrease. The impact this has on our skin is well documented â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but did you know that it can also cause hair loss? While there are myriad solutions available to combat the effects of the skinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ageing process, hair regrowth is less successful. However, a treatment known as mesotherapy is now seeing positive results in up to 90 per cent of cases â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a phenomenal achievement in comparison to minoxidilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 50 per cent success rate. This non-surgical procedure delivers a boost of nourishing substances to layers of the skin where cell repair and growth occurs, by injecting multiple tiny amounts of natural extracts, homeopathic agents, vitamins and minerals just below the epidermis. While the treatment has â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Caused by traditionally been used to help hormone improve dull, tired-looking, dry and imbalances in and lifeless skin, manage superficial and condition skin before around the hair wrinkles or after surgery, Elements MediSpa follicle, a lack of on Thorne Road in Doncaster is the right nutrients now delighted to also offer it as a and reduced blood treatment for hair loss. Caused by hormone imbalances circulation, hair in and around the hair follicle, a lack loss affects both of the right nutrients and reduced men and women blood circulation, hair loss affects and can cause both men and women and can untold distress.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; cause untold distress. In this circumstance, mesotherapy works by improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, stimulating collagen, increasing follicle size and stimulating hair growth. With regular treatments, results become evident in as little as two months. Virtually painless and with no downtime, the sessions take between ten and 30 minutes depending on the area being targeted, and you can carry on with your day immediately afterwards. For more information about mesotherapy and all of the medispaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s treatments, products and services, or to book your appointment, visit the website (www.elements.org.uk) or call reception on 01302 34 34 32.

s summer approaches, there is plenty to look forward to in Bawtry. In the run up to the fourth Visit Bawtry Charity Polo Cup on Sunday 5 July at the Vale of York Polo Club in Misson, the question on everyone’s lips is – will anyone knock The Crown Hotel off the winner’s podium? This eight-team knockout tournament, which will raise money for Aurora, begins at 2pm and sees sponsors The Crown Hotel, China Rose, Robinsons of Bawtry, Fine & Country, The Vanilla Rooms, Suttons Capital Allowances, Max Design Consultancy, and Hydro Active Pools & Spas battling to take home the coveted trophy. Text POLO to 66777 for more information and reminders before the event. Of course, Bawtry’s equestrian events don’t stop there, and we were delighted to host the fourth successful Visit Bawtry Race Meeting at Doncaster Racecourse on 16 May – read all about it on page 6. Bawtry Courtyard Farmers Market is celebrating its first anniversary on 6 June. Taking place on the first and third Saturday of each month 9am-4pm, it is going from strength to strength and continues to showcase a lovely range of fresh and homemade produce and gifts. The newly appointed market manager, local resident Kim Wattam, is assisting the Courtyard team in driving the market forward. Why not come along and help to support your local producers?
Election Fever gripped the UK in May – and Bawtry was no different. But it was the Bawtry Town Council election that took the spotlight and I was thrilled to be elected alongside fellow BRA members and Bawtry residents Steve Womack and Andy West. We are also striving to become the UK’s first dementia- and cancer-friendly town. All BRA members are invited to do simple online cancer training and awareness sessions, and the first dementia session at the Crown in May was conducted by dementia champion Liz Butcher. Keep a look out for further opportunities to become involved. Congratulations are also in order for some local businesses. Bawtry Shoe Company has just celebrated its 25th anniversary, Caviars’ current owners recently celebrated their third anniversary and raised £1,000 for Aurora at their annual fundraising dinner, Bawtry Eye Academy turns two on 6 June and China Rose will reach its 30th anniversary in July. I wish all readers a fantastic summer and I look forward to seeing you out and about in Bawtry. In the meantime, check out the fabulous new Visit Bawtry website www.visitbawtry.com, developed by Simon Boguszewski and his team at Six IT services.

A great day A wonderful day of horse racing was finished off with a headline appearance by The Human League at Visit Bawtry’s annual meeting.
C
rowds of glamorous ladies and suited men flocked to the fourth annual Visit Bawtry Race Day at Doncaster Racecourse to witness a day packed full of horse racing. The event, organised by Bawtry Retail Association, was attended by nearly 12,000 people – proving that even the cold weather couldn’t dampen any spirits. Retailers in the town sponsored the entire race to promote their business and the town of Bawtry while supporting one of Doncaster’s greatest assets – the wonderful racecourse. The Crown Hotel, Portland Autos, Robinsons of Bawtry, China Rose, Fine and Country, Caviars Restaurant and 31 Market Place Cocktail Bar and Bistro all became a part 6 | www.visitbawtry.com
of the action as their sponsored races took place. Entertainment included a three-piece jazz band that created a wonderful atmosphere and played outside of the Champagne Bar and the legendary Sheffield band, Human League played after the racing finished. Rebecca Dickenson, Chair Bawtry Retail Association, said: “Doncaster Racecourse is a great platform to promote the work that we do and the diverse range of businesses, restaurants and retail that we have in Bawtry. “It was lovely to welcome some regular faces as well as some new sponsors – Portland of Bawtry and 31 Market Place Cocktail Bar and Bistro – all of whom were fantastic and great ambassadors for Visit Bawtry.”

Bawtry businesses have teamed up with Yorkshire Wildlife Park – and are reaping the rewards.
B
awtry is packed to the rafters with savvy business owners who know how to draw in the crowds from far and wide. It is this momentum that has led to the Bawtry Retail Association becoming such a successful operation, and helped to put Bawtry on the map. It will come as no surprise, then, that some of these business owners have also teamed up with another local attraction – the Yorkshire Wildlife Park (YWP) and its Safari Village, a free-to-enter retail arm which opened last April. The Crown Hotel, Etc and Limited 2 Art now have strong connections with the park, and are enjoying the many benefits this brings. “The whole point of the Safari Village is to create a destination that is unique,” says YWP director Cheryl Williams. “In addition to our own shop and Safari Café, the other independent retailers we have on board are not the standard brands that you can find in any shopping centre, but handpicked businesses that really appeal to our customers.” Etc’s beautiful gifts, jewellery and homeware by well-loved brands such as Pilgrim, Emma Bridgewater and DCUK – as well as other exclusive collections – fit right in with this ethos. At the Limited 2 Art gallery, customers can
browse and buy original artworks, limited editions and sculptures from a range of both local and national exhibiting artists. “Putting our business in front of half a million visitors to the park each year was too good an opportunity to miss,” says gallery owner Ruth Worsman. “What the directors are trying to achieve at the park is commendable; they promote local businesses and suppliers and help to create wealth within the community. We’ve built a good symbiotic relationship with them and it’s even driven new customers to our Bawtry gallery.” The YWP’s partnership with The Crown Hotel in Bawtry has also opened up new opportunities for both businesses. Cheryl says: “We were getting approached by people who wanted to have their wedding photographs taken with the animals but we couldn’t complete the package as holding the evening reception here would have been very tricky during high season. Now, thanks to the Crown, people can come here, enjoy a unique experience, and then go to the hotel for their reception and accommodation. It works really well for both of us.”
You can now have your wedding pictures taken at YWP then head back to The Crown Hotel for your reception

| RETAILER OF THE MONTH
www.visitbawtry.com
Geoff Fuller (right) and his son Steven
Speed, efficiency, ability Expertise and exceptional service make Unit 4 a clear winner as this month’s top Bawtry retailer.
C
ongratulations to Unit 4 Dry Cleaning on being named our Visit Bawtry Retailer of the Month! The local business was an easy choice as they consistently provide a friendly and reliable service their customers can trust. “We are delighted that people feel so positive about our service,” says Company Director Geoff Fuller. “Our customers clearly appreciate the work we do and it is very heart-warming to be named Retailer of the Month.” For the past ten years, the family run business has prided itself on its speed, efficiency and ability to remove even the most stubborn stains. But it’s not just your favourite wine-stained dress that is in safe hands with Unit 4. They’ll come to your home to take down, dry clean and re-hang your curtains for you too. This is a service, to their knowledge, no other company in the area does. Geoff and his team are always willing to literally go the extra mile. The store’s less mobile and senior clients are particularly pleased with the collect and delivery service Unit 4 provide, as this is something that takes moments out of their day, but would take hours for their clients. This service is free to those living locally and costs little for those further away.
Unit 4 value their loyal customers and honour the relationships they have built with individuals over the years. One of their elderly female clients is moving from Tickhill to Edlington, but they will still be committed to collecting items from her home. Unit 4 will restore pre-worn wedding dresses back to their former glory or freshen them up ready for storage. They also do a boxing service where they seal the dress in acid free tissue paper to preserve your memories so it can be passed down as a family heirloom for years to come. Their cleaning service for dresses and home furnishings such as bedding and table cloths is so professional, that even prestigious wedding shops and local businesses such as the Best Western Mount Pleasant Hotel in Doncaster count themselves as regular customers. “In the past six years, they have often turned round laundry for our clients at very short notice, always to a very high standard,” says hotel owner Helen Mcllroy. “The hotel sometimes has some very specialised cleaning needs such as silks, which they equally have reinstated to their former glory.” As well as providing a dry-cleaning and pressing service for a range of items including
everyday clothing, work wear, evening wear, wedding dresses, curtains, table linen and duvets, they now offer an extensive garment alterations and shoe repair service too. Customers are also delighted with Unit 4’s great value for money with prices for drycleaning ranging from £5.40 for ladies’ blouses to £27.05 for king size duvets. Dry-cleaned items are usually ready by the same time the following day, but if you’re in a hurry, Unit 4’s Balby branch on Tickhill Road have launched a new ‘drop by 10am, collect after 4pm’ service which has proven very popular with many of their customers. If you don’t have time to call in to either store, don’t worry. Unit 4’s personal collection and delivery service will come to your rescue with no extra cost to local addresses. With their years of cleaning expertise and exceptional service to their loyal customers in Bawtry and the surrounding areas of Doncaster, Unit 4 truly deserve to be awarded Retailer of the Month.

30-YEAR ANNIVERSARY Popular Cantonese restaurant China Rose is celebrating an impressive 30 years in business. Over the years the Wan family have demonstrated true staying power by evolving with the changing times while remaining true to their vision – to deliver freshly cooked, innovative Cantonese food, using the finest ingredients. In 2000 co-owner Louis Wan’s nephew Jason Kwan moved from Hong Kong and was later joined by his wife Carly Hui. The couple took over the reins from longstanding general manager Estelle Johnston in 2012 “I can’t believe where the time has gone but I am hugely proud of what we have achieved and the superb reputation that the restaurant has,” said Estelle. www.chinarose.co.uk
WINNING CHAMPAGNE NOW AVAILABLE AT CHINA ROSE Following the Eastside Magazine Champagne tasting last December, China Rose have added the winning champagne to its wine list – Canard Duchene Charles VII Smooth Rose Champagne. The champagne was a great hit and almost the entire panel agreed it was one of their favourites, with everyone loving the special white and pink bottle too. With its pink, subtle coppered hue, delicate, abundant mousse, delicate red fruit notes and cherry aromas, the Champagne is ideal for a truly memorable aperitif, or to accompany refined, rich and flavoursome dishes.
Revellers enjoyed a spectacular tribute to Cher, Tina Turner and Madonna at the Showtime event at China Rose with The American Divas

SMALLS FOR ALL! Cherish Dress Agency in Bawtry is once again collecting used or new bras and new pairs of pants for the charity Smalls for All (www.smallsforall.org) during June to be sent out to Africa. Underwear may seem insignificant when a country has so many problems, but because many women and children in Africa can’t afford underwear, they fall victim to disease and attack. Girls who are lucky enough to have a place in school often miss three or four days a month due their lack of underwear. Donate items to Cherish Tuesday-Saturday, 10am-4pm in June.
DESIGNER DISCOUNT Bawtry Designer Outlet is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday 11am-4 pm offering clearance prices on past season stock for both ladies and gents.

With all this to think about, it’s reassuring to know there’s somewhere local you can go for a little inspiration, as well as everything you could possibly need to create that dream bathroom.

Now, the impressive showroom – with manager Jayne Bluck at the helm – has gone from strength to strength. With 31 years’ experience in the industry Jayne has a keen eye for detail and is the ideal person to go to if you’re in need of any design advice. The many display bathrooms are filled with varied ideas, which is great for those in need of some inspiration. There is an impressive range of products on offer, from tiles and towel warmers, to basins and baths – some of which are exclusive
to the area. They also have a range especially designed to cater for disabled people, such as wet rooms. As well as being able to supply all your bathroom products, Wow Interiors can projectmanage a development from start to finish including measuring, designing and installation. Jayne has worked with the same reliable installers for many years, so you can sit back and relax, safe in the knowledge that every aspect has been taken care of.

St Leger festival 2014
Racing ahead in business, from Doncaster to Dubai Keyhole Visuals’ reputation has gone global...
K
eyhole Visuals has been on a fast-paced journey since its launch February last year, working with a diverse range of respectable clients, in and around the borough. Most recently, the team have been venturing beyond Doncaster having gained custom all the way from Dubai. “Doncaster is where Keyhole Visuals has flourished and grown. The abundance of support and the array of clients in our local area, have ensured the development and success of our business,” Alex, Managing Director and Founder of Keyhole Visuals, comments. “Accumulating our video portfolio right here in Doncaster, has opened up incredible opportunities to work with businesses on the other side of the world.” Alex was fortunate enough to spend ten days in Dubai on locations across the city,
capturing everything from camel rides, to desert dunes, to the infamous infrastructures and spectacular architecture. With this stunning footage of Dubai, Keyhole Visuals have produced a recruitment campaign video for Guardian Wealth Management, to attract potential applicants into choosing a career with the company, to view the video visit www.keyholevisuals.co.uk. Keyhole Visuals recently produced a film for the Future of Rail Conference, held in Doncaster. Working in partnership with the Business in Doncaster, and Skeye UK Ltd, the film features remarkable aerial footage of the borough, paying particular attention to the railway station, and foundations for the upcoming growth of the rail industry in Doncaster. Alongside the production of these short films, the Keyhole team have also developed commercial TV adverts for Doncaster Racecourse, one to promote St. Leger Week and the other to advertise the venue’s popular Music Live events. Both adverts
are currently being aired on ITV and the St. Leger TV ad captures the festival’s electric atmosphere. Emily Johnson, PR and Communications Director, concludes: “At Keyhole Visuals we produce video content that is bespoke to our clients, and we strive to be individual in the competitive industry we are in. We are so grateful for the chances that have arisen to work with the most prestigious clients, and it wouldn’t have happened without our humble beginnings right here in South Yorkshire.” Keyhole Visuals are Alex Dowie and Emily Johnson.They can be contacted on 01302 241040 or, 07595 744627 / alex@keyholevisuals.co.uk, or 07907 446411 / emily@keyholevisuals.co.uk www.visitbawtry.com | 29

Teachers and students strutted their stuff on the catwalk and pupils also modelled their own creations. The evening was topped off with appearances from headmaster Mr Holland and head of the junior school, Mr Hall.
Make a will and help local people recover from cancer

Throughout June, Doncaster law firm, Atherton Godfrey is offering to draft wills in return for donations to Aurora, a charity dedicated to supporting those diagnosed with cancer. Specialist wills and probate solicitor Vicky Sladdin says: “We understand it can be difficult to make a will and it isn’t something most people want to think about. But a will puts you in charge and lets you make the decisions about who deals with your estate and who benefits from any money or property that you leave.” Every penny raised will go to helping provide vital support and facilities for local people going through or recovering from cancer treatments. The suggested donations for the professionally drafted wills are £90 for a single basic will or £135 for a pair of basic mirror wills. Appointments are available throughout June. To book call 01302 320621.

‘Best experience of my life’ The most hotly anticipated wedding of 2015 has taken place at The Crown Hotel – we caught up with Hallam FM’s Win Your Wedding bride Angela Pilkington-Thorp to hear all about the magical day…
I
met Brian three years ago and we got engaged at New Year in Las Vegas. We always said that we didn’t want a really long engagement so, when we heard about the Hallam FM Win Your Wedding competition, we thought we’d give it a go. It also gave us the opportunity to raise money for a really good cause. We were absolutely over the moon when we found out we’d won but it took a while to sink in. We were in shock and just so relieved that it was all over because the fundraising fortnight was really, really hard work. But then we started to get really excited about what was to come. In all the excitement, we realised we had just four weeks to plan the wedding. It was chaos and we were running from one

place to another to get everything sorted. We had to make instant decisions and didn’t have time to change our minds about anything. The service we received from the Crown was truly out of this world – from planning the wedding to helping us on the day to looking after us once it was all over, they were absolutely brilliant. I kept thinking that it was such short notice and panicking that everything wouldn’t be ready in time but if I made a request, it was done. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. We had both the ceremony and the reception at the hotel and the rooms were just beautiful. White Rose Occasions dressed the rooms perfectly, with sparkle back drops and lovely chair covers. We

chose a very fresh, clean and traditional look for our wedding theme – lots of white roses and lace, and silvery-charcoal dresses for my bridesmaids. My favourite moment was just after the ceremony, when we turned around together as a married couple and walked out to Viva Las Vegas while our guests pulled silver party poppers. It was amazing! I then nipped outside to have some photographs taken in front of a fire engine (I’m a fire fighter) while everyone enjoyed hibiscus fizz and canapés before the meal. All of our guests – 68 for the day and 120 for the evening reception – commented on how wonderful the food was. For the wedding breakfast, we had an absolutely phenomenal five-course meal, including coffee, and everyone was absolutely stuffed. But when they brought out the pie, peas and chips later in the evening, no-one could resist! We stayed in the 501 suite, which has the biggest shower I have ever seen – there are two big shower heads in there, about a metre apart from each other, which are
“The service we received from the Crown was truly out of this world – they were absolutely brilliant.” incredible. A lot of our guests stayed over at the hotel too and said how nice the rooms were. If we hadn’t entered the competition and had gone to a wedding at the Crown, I would definitely have chosen the hotel as our venue. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff – everything ran so smoothly and the food was just incredible. It was a wonderful day and they made it the best experience of my life.
OPEN EVENING – THURSDAY 18 JUNE, 6-9PM If Angela’s story has got you thinking about where you’d like to tie the knot, why not come along to the Crown’s wedding open evening and discover exactly what makes this venue so special? On Thursday 18 June between 6pm and 9pm, you’ll have the chance to experience a true taste of weddings at
the Crown and have an informal chat with the friendly wedding team. Greeted by arrival drinks and canapés, you’ll be taken on a tour of the hotel so you can see the fabulous bedrooms, check out how the Leger Suite looks during a civil ceremony, discover how wonderful the Hogarth Suite is
when laid for a wedding reception, and even see how the beautiful twinkle-lit garden takes on a magical feeling once night falls. Why not drop in after work with your other half and see for yourself why Angela – and many brides before her – have fallen in love with The Crown Hotel?

Win tickets to see the smash-hit comedy musical Avenue Q at Cast, Doncaster
W
inner of the Tony Awards Triple Crown for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book, Avenue Q is part flesh, part felt and packed with heart. Created by Jeff Marx and Robert Lopez (co-creator of Book of Mormon and writer of the songs for Disney’s Frozen) Avenue Q is an irresistibly charming musical which tells the story of the loveable characters on a downtown New York street trying to make sense of life’s burning issues.
Following five years in the West End, sellout runs worldwide and a smash-hit tour in 2014 (packed with mischief, bad behaviour and political incorrectness) this hugely entertaining show is coming to Cast, Doncaster on Tuesday 7 to Saturday 11 July. Hilarious, cheeky and uproariously entertaining, with a terrific batch of songs performed by a cast of hugely talented performers and puppets, Avenue Q is a musical like no other. Caution: Not suitable for little monsters!
For a chance to win four tickets to see Avenue Q at Cast on Friday 10 July at 5pm, answer this question: One of the residents of Avenue Q, Trekkie, is based on a loveable blue monster from Sesame Street who has a craving for a certain type of biscuit.

RAVE ON!
The Old Weighing Room certainly lives up to its reputation, writes Stephanie Burns.
I
had heard many rave reviews about The Old Weighing Room since its £125,000 refurbishment. And though I admit I was a little surprised by the gushing comments, given the restaurant’s track-side location, my recent visit taught me not to judge somewhere before going myself. It was on a blustery Thursday evening that my partner and I arrived a little early for our 7pm booking at the restaurant, still unsure what to expect. We needn’t have worried. An exceptionally warm welcome greeted us and, as we were soon to find out, the food matched the impeccable service. While we enjoyed a pre-dinner drink in the bar, we took the chance to take in our slick and glamorous surroundings. The black, grey and white colour scheme, spiked with hints of chrome and flashes of turquoise and purple, is given an even greater sense of occasion by the spectacular glassdomed ceiling. It made a great first impression. After a hard day’s work we’d built up quite an appetite and, as we were seated in the main restaurant, our eyes lit up at the sight of two freshly baked mini loaves, with plenty of butter to accompany them. We gladly tucked in while waiting the few minutes for our starters to arrive. My artfully presented dish had robust, pink wood pigeon balanced on a gently warmed salad of carrot, celeriac and
www.regionalmagazine.co.uk
courgette ribbons. Dowsed in a cranberry jus, it was a wonderful way to begin proceedings. Across the table, my partner was spreading thick layers of deliciously rich brown crab butter on tomato and chilli breadsticks – a strong base for the more delicate flavours of potted white crab and tangy lime jelly. The positivity continued for our main courses – and included the star of the show. The freshest pea and mint risotto I’d ever tasted provided a fantastic accompaniment to my breaded lamb’s belly. Topped with parmesan and peashoots, it was a beautiful dish that I would happily order again. My partner’s surf ‘n’ turf, with fillet steak and breaded monkfish, was equally well received and he had to slap away my hand on more than one occasion to protect his crispy tripled-cooked chips. Fantastic puds, one of which came with a gorgeous strawberry daiquiri cocktail, finished the meal off in style. During the course of the evening, someone rang to book a table for afternoon tea in July. Not only did this reflect the restaurant’s popularity – only the best restaurants get bookings weeks in advance – but it also gave us inspiration for our next visit.Yes, I can certainly imagine sipping champagne and nibbling scones on that track-side terrace come summertime.

Favourites with a twist Fiona Barber cosies up to some familiar dishes given a modern makeover.
T
he beautiful backdrop of Clumber Park is enough to persuade anyone to stay at Clumber Park Hotel and Spa. But if the scenery doesn’t get you the hotel’s innovative menu surely will. Food at the hotel is served in two restaurants run by head chef Allan Barrett. The Normanton Inn offers a relaxed, family friendly, informal atmosphere and is open daily from 10am and the Courtyard Restaurant opens on Friday and Saturday evenings for a more intimate experience. Private dining is also available. On this occasion we were dining at the Normanton Inn. With canvases showcasing the beauty of Clumber Park and a typical country-style moose’s head protruding from the wall, there’s a true cosiness here that makes for an ideal relaxed dinner. As well as the standard menu, a blackboard offers tantalising daily specials, one of which – the ham hock served with pineapple chutney – instantly caught my eye. Two crisped meaty fritters arrived with a perfectly cooked just-soft-in-the-middle egg and were offset wonderfully by the sweetness of the chutney. My partner opted for the pan-fried pigeon, black pudding, crispy pancetta, pickled mushrooms, curly endive and rocket salad; a beautiful combination of flavours and textures. Our mains – a roasted duck breast with carrot and star anise puree, potato fondant, wilted greens, and a ginger and sesame marinated pork cutlet with braised rice and lemon crème fraîche – were both deliciously

tender and created an infusion of aromatic flavours with every mouthful. For desserts, it was a classic case of saving the best until last; the banoffee pie totally stole the show. With lashings of toffee sauce, precisely piped cream and clotted cream ice cream, it was everything you could ever want from such an indulgence. My partner – a lover of ‘proper’ puds, and anything that comes with custard – couldn’t resist the Baileys croissant bread and butter pudding. Served with traditional custard, this dish summed up exactly what Clumber Park Hotel and Spa does best – traditional food with a modern twist.

Currying favour Phoebe Seymour is tempted to try something different when she visits a Tickhill favourite.
E
very time my boyfriend and I go for a curry, we are predictably safe. We always have chicken korma and chicken tikka masala, much to the ridicule of our friends. However, I am much more openminded tonight. As soon as we enter Zara’s, we are welcomed by manager Faruk Miah with a greeting as warm as the gold and yellow décor. Our attentive waiter, Abdul, shows us to our table and takes our drinks order. Whilst consulting the menu, we start with some light and crispy poppadoms. After I order a mixed kebab and my boyfriend orders a samosa, Abdul is happy to help with the mains. Based on the fact I like medium hot, chicken curries, he suggests the Zara’s special. I assume my dining partner won’t budge on the korma, but hurrah! Abdul manages to sway him toward the chicken makoni, a similar curry with a tomato twist. We then order the tarka dall with garlic, pilau rice and garlic naan. No vampires coming near us tonight. The room is filling up well for a Thursday night. I find Faruk talking to the regulars sat at the table to my right. In the 12 years it has been here, Zara’s has built up a loyal clientele. “About 70 per cent of our customers are regulars,” says Faruk. It’s also great to hear that the chefs pride themselves on making everything from scratch with fresh ingredients.

It isn’t long before we are tucking into a mixed kebab made up of a crispy onion bhaji, kebab meat and pieces of grilled-toperfection chicken. The samosa is surprisingly spicy, but works well with the cool side salad. The mains’ presentation is as impressive as the seductive aroma. The Zara’s special is in a balti-like, tomato sauce topped with diced coriander and red onions, as is the tarka dall. I’m glad they don’t hold back on the garlic in the buttery dall and even the pilau rice has a nice aroma, as it’s topped with a clove of aniseed. The chicken makoni is sweet, yet creamier than a korma, which is good, but I imagine it would be overwhelming on its own. The strong taste of the garlic nan breaks this up nicely. Both main courses rate highly, but we particularly like the Zara’s special with its balance of flavours and juicy chunks of chicken. I don’t usually do desserts at curry houses, but the coconut supreme ice cream with its real pieces of coconut is not something you come across often. My boyfriend cleans his palate with the orange sorbet which is zingy and made with real orange juice. The food and customer service tonight have been outstanding and I can see why many locals are regulars at this curry house. I’m not saying, “So long” to my usual tikka masala, but I am happy to try something new the next time I visit.

Queen Ethelburga’s Collegiate Independent Education Girls & Boys 3 to 19 years Day & Boarding Thorpe Underwood, Yorkshire. Phone: 01423 333 330 Email: info@QE.org Web: www.QE.org
Are we all about academics? No, but were you aware the Daily Telegraph and The Times both rank QE College as the top most academically successful day and boarding school in the North for A*/ A grades at A Level and equivalent results and our Faculty of Queen Ethelburga’s, the third most academically successful co-educational day and boarding school in the North for A*/ A grades at A Level and equivalent results?
Are we all about Sport? No independent school in the North has the equivalent of our £16m Sports Village. A parent said we are now in a league above the rest. See: www.sportsvillageqe.org
Are we all about superb facilities? No, but we have invested over £80m in superb new teaching facilities and resources in the last 8 years - way more than any other independent school in the North.
Are we all about boarding? No, but no one comes close to the quality of our boarding accommodation. The best in the UK. All bedrooms have private bathroom, air-con, TV, phone & mini-kitchen.
Are we all about day pupils? No, but it is interesting to note our day fees are, on average, over 14% less cost than other local independent schools and our bus service covers a very big local area.
Is it all about Scholarships and Awards? No, but then again who else offers over £3m in Scholarships and Awards every year? Even without any form of Scholarship or Award, sending your child to QE could save you between £3,000 and £7,000 in day fees a year, compared to elsewhere.
All of the above are perhaps the reasons why appreciably more parents have chosen QE this year than last year. “ We were looking for our children to change schools. However in the independent sector this has financial implications. Our problems in this regard were solved by the offer of Day or Boarding Awards (our choice) for both children of First Term Free. They moved, are now happy, and doing very well. QE is growing in size because it is run in a refreshing, modern and much better way. There are plenty of day children.”
Enjoy a 6th Form education at QE and pay no fees!.... Day Award up to £25,000, Boarding Award up to £65,000 If your child is predicted; 9 Grade A star GCSE’s they could be entitled to 100% of the fees 8 A star and 1 A Grade GCSE’s worth up to 85% of the fees 7 A star and 2 A Grade GCSE’s worth up to 70% of the fees 6 A star and 3 A Grade GCSE’s worth up to 50% of the fees
FIRST TERM FREE Day or Boarding Worth up to £9,795 Continues for 2014-15 (a) First Term Free for Years N1 to 8 inclusive, or (b) 50% off First Term’s Fees for Years 9, 10, 12. SPECIAL BOARDING AWARDS Worth up to £75,500 Awarded to outstanding, high achieveing students in categories Academic and/or Sport. Awards based on experience and ability, subject to interview and assessment. (Note a 30% award may be given under this scholarship type for our Elite Sport programmes). FAMILY SIBLING AWARDS Day & Boarding Our discounts are bigger than others, if indeed they even offer them. Brothers & sisters - boarders from 12% - 20%, day pupils 10%.
