EDITOR’S LETTER
to look forward to as the days shorten, such as winter fires, terrific events and perhaps a warming whisky or two.

We look at the top golf clubs and country houses in Surrey along with interior property trends and the best independent schools. Pick your favourite watch from our selection of best new mechanical watches and look out for the jewellery edit, offering bold and beautiful pieces to dazzle the eye.
There are some superb events coming up, such as the Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court and numerous exciting new plays and music extravaganzas at the various theatres in Surrey. Make yourself even lovelier with Tracey Mann’s futuristic beauty tips and read about the rather mesmerising Natalie Portman, who is not just a pretty face, but active in many areas, supporting those in need.
We pop down to Pendennis Shipyards, a British company restoring and refurbishing some truly magnificent yachts down in Falmouth. Enjoy the Four Seasons Hotel in Hampshire with our luxury stay in the English countryside, get your eye in for the season at Bisley Shooting Grounds and share in our luxury experience, sports and first class spa at Foxhills Resort.
The Rolls Royce Black Badge Dawn is my car of choice for this Autumn, a gothic luxury convertible that cruises smoothly and stylishly, perfect for the ultimate road trip. It is truly excellent with a mandarin orange and black interior, goes from 0-62mph in 4.8 secs and an umbrella in the door for those rainy evenings.
We recommend the finest whiskies to buy now, either as an investment or to keep for a special occasion. I heartily recommend the Midleton which is pure nectar, with a bite. Plus we chat with Reubyn Ash, the UK champion surfer three years in a row, a very cool and laid back guy, recognised as the best surfer the UK has ever seen.
I would like to thank Worplesdon Golf Club for providing the backdrop to our gorgeous fashion shoot, styled by Miranda Holder and photographed by yours truly. Also a huge thanks to Broadwater Park Golf Club for their fantastic help and support.
