Welcome… TO OUR VERY LATEST ISSUE OF SIMPLY SOUTH HAMS Are you ready to sell? Welcome to the summer edition of our Simply South Hams magazine, showcasing a selection of our latest South Hams properties available through our six branch network. The recent fine weather has encouraged locals and visitors alike to enjoy the diverse and abundant leisure pursuits this dynamic region of the Westcounty enjoys. Many of you will recognise the front cover photograph of Blackpool Sands, which is one of the 2018 Blue Flag Award beaches in the British Isles - all of which have to meet the stringent criteria to qualify. The current property market is benefitting from a period of relative stability, notwithstanding Mr Trump and Brexit, with muted inflation and stable interest rates and few competing factors for available funds. Correctly priced and marketed properties are finding buyers. The property market is being somewhat hampered for various reasons, by a lengthy transaction process – in short, the time taken for a property to exchange/complete from the point at which the sale was agreed can be approaching 4 months. Very high on my advice list would be “it’s never too early to talk to your property solicitor” once you have decided to sell. To that end, in addition to speaking to an experienced estate agent we would strongly recommend advising anyone considering moving to contact a solicitor as soon as possible. The sooner legal issues are addressed, the better prepared you will be to sell to a committed buyer, as your solicitor will be ready to answer any questions that they will be asked by a buyer’s solicitor – failure to be ready to sell is the single biggest factor in causing delays to the process. If you need to discuss any of your specific property requirements or just catch up on your local property market conditions, please give one of our offices/departments a call for a discreet chat.

Range Rover Velar
“Velar is now the compelling, stand-out design in the class, showcasing perfectly optimised volume, powerful, taut surfaces and a stunning silhouette.� Gerry McGovern, Chief Design Officer, Land Rover.
The Range Rover Velar brings a new dimension of glamour, modernity and elegance to the Range Rover family. Designed to fill the white space between the Range Rover Evoque and Range Rover Sport, the Velar offers levels of luxury, refinement and all-terrain capability never before seen in the mid-size SUV segment. This is a new type of Range Rover for a new type of customer.
Created from a clean sheet using Jaguar Land Rover’s Lightweight Aluminium Architecture, the Velar represents the next chapter of the Range Rover success story. Velar is defined by a visually reductive approach and meticulous attention to precision in every detail, which evolves Range Rover DNA and previews the next generation of Range Rover vehicles.
Velar’s design is beautifully balanced, from its powerful proportions to its continuous waist line
through to the taut tapered lines of the rear. The generous wheelbase contributes significantly to its elegance while helping to provide a spacious interior.
The large alloy wheels – in particular the range of 22-inch designs – optimise the vehicle’s stunning silhouette, while further enhancing Velar’s dramatic presence.
Advanced technology is pivotal to the contemporary design: the full-LED headlights are the most slender ever to appear on a production Land Rover vehicle. The flush deployable door handles emphasise Velar’s reductive, sculptured form, and contribute to the low drag coefficient of only 0.32 – this is the most aerodynamicallyefficient Land Rover ever produced.
Look inside Velar’s interior and you will see elegant simplicity, sophistication and refinement. An unwavering belief in reductionism has been
fully employed, with switches being kept to an absolute minimum to help create a calm sanctuary.
Design enabling technology has been engaged fully to create the new Touch Pro Duo infotainment system which is the centrepiece of Velar’s interior. Touch Pro Duo features two 10-inch high-definition touchscreens integrated seamlessly behind secret-until-lit surfaces. These slim, intuitive displays work in harmony with the cabin architecture while adding an overall sense of modernity congruent with the vehicle’s exterior design. All of this is equalled by the Velar’s practicality: luggage compartment volume is an impressive 673-litres. Unique in the segment, the Velar offers a sustainable, premium textile seat material as an alternative to leather. The Dapple Grey material was developed together with Kvadrat, Europe’s leading manufacturer of high-quality design

textiles, and is complemented with Suedecloth inserts in Ebony or Light Oyster.
The light, stiff, aluminium-intensive body, together with double-wishbone front and Integral Link rear suspension provides the perfect basis for agile handling, superior ride comfort and outstanding refinement. It also delivers exceptional levels of crash protection, and the Velar has been developed to meet the most demanding crash test regulations worldwide.
Combined with a comprehensive restraints system that includes six airbags, and a suite of advanced driver assistance systems including Autonomous Emergency Braking with pedestrian detection, Adaptive Cruise Control with Queue Assist and an Adaptive Speed Limiter, the Velar integrates the latest safety technology.
Exceptional performance and efficiency comes from the range of six petrol and diesel powertrains, all matched to smooth-shifting ZF eight-speed

automatic transmissions and all-wheel drive with Intelligent Driveline Dynamics.
The Velar and Velar R-Dynamic core range comprises Standard, S, SE and HSE specifications. Customers can also specify Black and Luxury Exterior Packs for an even more distinguished appearance.
Of all Velar models, the most exclusive of all will be the First Edition, which will be available worldwide for one model year only. Even more luxurious than the HSE specification, this model is powered solely by the 3.0-litre V6 petrol and
Exterior paint colours for the First Edition are Corris Grey, Silicon Silver, and Flux Silver – a unique satin finish exclusive to the First Edition for the first model year only – which will be meticulously hand-sprayed at Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations’ Oxford Road Technical Centre in the UK.

Gale Force We speak to South Hams based artist Jackie Gale about her work and love of the local area.
Jackie Gale's art journey began in the Midlands, where she was born. A childhood spent surrounded by easels, paintbrushes and creative projects, Jackie was forever creating collages from anything she could find including garden cuttings, fabric trimmings and cardboard boxes. Her resourcefulness, which she feels stems from those early years, can be seen today in her creative use of extraordinary textiles within her work. Despite her love of art, Jackie pursued a long and happy career as a registered nurse for the next twenty years until a major illness turned her life around and forced her to rethink her life and lifestyle. It was then that she decided to revisit her love of art with sketching and sewing. Little did she know then that this pastime would become her future and her passion.
FEATURE • 047
The creativity and colourfulness of Jackie's character is reflected in her work, which now has a national and international following including many collectors. She enjoys blending her passion for naive art with textile creativity to tell a story of a place or theme, in her unique style. Favourite artists who continue to inspire her for their storytelling ability include Fred Yates, Henri Rousseau and Bryan Pearce. Narrative is an essential component of Jackie's work and she tells her story with texture. Much of her time is spent continually looking for new and unique materials to incorporate into her work to give it added interest, depth and humour. She also tries to use textiles relating to the topic or theme she is working on, for example, old fishing nets for a harbour scene. She believes this adds authenticity as well as visual interest. Jackie lives in the South Hams with her husband and three children. It is here that she enjoys endless inspiration from the local seaside villages to the coves and harbours of neighbouring Cornwall. To her mind though, every place has a story to tell and inspiration is never far away. She constantly sees creative opportunity and exciting challenges and her sketchbook is always close to hand. In 2015, she was extremely honoured to be awarded 'Best Up & Coming UK artist' by the Fine Art Guild. Today, she has her own gallery in the South Hams where she exhibits a collection of original work, prints and gifts. Visitors will always receive the warmest of welcomes and get to see latest pieces she is working on. You can view Jackie's artwork at the forthcoming Yealmpton Show on Wednesday 25th July where she will be exhibiting within the Marchand Petit marquee.
Her next main event will be a solo exhibition at Plymouth's Theatre Royal throughout December and January. Definitely not to be missed!

A Warm Welcome Awaits
Gallery 5 is a gem of a gallery situated in Salcombe’s ‘Art and Maritime Quarter’. Set amongst the working boatyards and crafts people and near to Salcombe’s new Gin Distillery and Bar. A two minute walk from Shadycombe car park, its charm seduces all who venture along historic Island St.
For those averse to the usual formal gallery experience, this is a far more friendly artspace – one which is guaranteed to catch your attention with one of John’s giant Lobsters hanging outside: an exquisite work of art painted with iridescent colours on sea-worn timbers from local working fishing boats, a most perfect invitation to enjoy the relaxed ambience within.
In fact the words ‘local’ and ‘working’ sum up the ethos of Gallery 5 perfectly. Initially set up as a 100 • FEATURE
“Its charm seduces all who venture along historic Island St” collective of artists nine years ago, it’s now run by partners John Aspden – a painter, and Magles Denning – a photographer, who are dedicated to promoting local artists and talented artisans with a focus on affordable, contemporary and original work.
The well curated art on display shows differing perspectives on the various elements, textures, and colours that comprise our landscape. The sensuous; the dynamic; even the transcendent
qualities to be found at sea – all are reflected within these charming stone walls.
Large scale photographs of the local coastline; original abstract sweeping canvases; paintings framed to order; limited edition prints; silver jewellery cast from locally found shells. Exquisite glasswork imbued with gold and silver leaf; ceramics both decorative and functional; as well as bespoke, hand-crafted furniture made to design. All this and more!
John and Magles acknowledge that many of us like to buy art as a gift or to commemorate a special occasion, which increases in value over time….. a gesture that carries memories of a place and times shared. A warm welcome awaits! www.gallery5salcombe.co.uk
When it comes to property auctions our dedicated auction team gives you more. For properties that need a different sales approach, our experienced valuers, focused marketing and streamlined conveyancing give you better results. marchandpetit.co.uk
