Whether period or contemporary, prestige homes are always unique, which is why they require bespoke marketing strategies
Seymours Prestige Homes specialises in marketing premium, high-value properties, offering an unmatched combination of local expertise, national coverage, and international exposure. Their properties are beautifully captured and meticulously presented, as showcased in the selection of homes featured in their publication.
Despite the rise in interest rates towards the end of last year, the high-end property market has remained remarkably active throughout 2024. This market segment has been somewhat insulated from broader economic conditions, bolstered by the ongoing influx of cash-rich “London leavers.” Demand in Surrey continues to outstrip supply, leading to strong prices being achieved.
Looking ahead to the rest of 2024 and into 2025, Seymours Prestige Homes has some exciting new properties coming to market, including a few that have not yet been listed online but are featured in this magazine.
According to Rightmove figures, we consistently sell more high-value homes than our competitors in the regions where we operate. While independent figures confirm our proven and ongoing success in this market, the focus is not on selling the most, but rather on getting it right every time for the clients who trust us with the sale of their homes. Continued market leadership underscores our unequivocal passion for all things ‘Prestige.’

Concerns about who will care for your four-legged friend while you are away can put a dampener on holiday plans.
However, pet owners across Surrey need not worry anymore, thanks to an array of ‘hotels’ that will keep your cat, dog, or even your rabbit in the care they have become accustomed to.
In recent years, pet ownership has skyrocketed, with many households considering their pets as integral family members. This shift in perspective has given rise to a burgeoning ‘pet hotel’ industry dedicated to pet care and hospitality. These facilities provide a range of services that ensure pets are comfortable, entertained, and well-cared for, transforming the concept of pet boarding into a luxury experience.
Pet hotels are not merely kennels or pet boarding facilities; they often comprise accommodation that offers a variety of services tailored to the well-being of pets. These services often include spacious suites, gourmet meals, grooming, play areas, and even spa treatments. The goal is to create an environment where pets feel at home and receive the same level of care and attention they would get from their owners.
“What you aim to give is total reassurance,” says Charlotte Sachdera, owner of Cobham-based Pet Nanny, who offers a ‘pop-in’ service for dogs, cats and smaller animals, as well as hotel accommodation for rabbits and guinea pigs.
“Animals are usually much happier at home, so the more they can be cared for within that setting the better,” she says.
“But if you would prefer to take them to stay somewhere else, then you have be sure it is the right setting for your animal. Every owner and every pet is different - and it has to be the best option for you both.”
According to Dawn Stanford, founder of Surrey Hills Luxury Dog Boarding, finding the right person to care for your pet is vital.
“For me it is a vocation, caring for the dogs is my passion,” says Dawn. “We look at our offer very much as a hotel with entertainment. We have check-in and check-out just like any other hotel and our ethos is ‘Happy Dog, Happy Customer’ which gives me a happy life as well. It is all about making sure the dog is calm and content.”
Dawn says numbers are kept low so she can get to know both the pet and the human client.
“We like to know what all their requirements are. We are very blessed to have a large open-plan property. The dogs are in our own home with us but they have plenty of space to do what they need to do.”
Dawn says the dogs sleep and eat separately but they are always in sight and with 54 hectares of woodland at their disposal, there is no lack of outdoor opportunities.
“They have a lot of enrichment,” explains Dawn. “Physical exercise, licky mats and treat toys - we make our own toys and doggy ice lollies and ice cream and they are also welcomed by our own two dogs - one of whom acts like a nanny.”
And for extra peace of mind, both Dawn and Charlotte offer clients a daily update which includes photos.
“We snap as the dogs are active which shows they are having a good time - it is more reassuring and once the clients come to pick the dogs up, they can see they are happy,” says Dawn
“Between the health and safety and paperwork it is quite a hard job, but we love we what we do which is why we do everything properly.”
Charlotte adds: “It is a big responsibility taking care of something that is so loved by someone else but it is so worthwhile.”
Pet hotels offer numerous benefits for both pets and their owners:
Peace of Mind: Owners can travel without worrying about their pets’ well-being, knowing they are in a safe and caring environment.
Socialisation: Pets, especially dogs, get the opportunity to socialise with other animals, which can be beneficial for their mental health and behaviour.
Professional Care: Pets receive professional care, including regular feeding, exercise, and medical attention if needed. This ensures their routine is maintained, and their health is monitored.
Convenience: Pet hotels provide a convenient solution for pet owners who need to travel frequently or have demanding schedules.
When selecting a pet hotel, owners should consider several factors to ensure their pet receives the best possible care:
Reputation: Researching reviews and testimonials from other pet owners can provide insight into the quality of care provided by the hotel.
Staff Qualifications: Ensuring the staff is trained and experienced in animal care is crucial for the safety and well-being of the pet.
Facilities and Amenities: Touring the facility to check the cleanliness, safety measures, and available amenities can help in making an informed decision.
Emergency Procedures: Understanding the hotel’s procedures for handling medical emergencies and ensuring they have access to veterinary care is essential.
Cost: Evaluating the cost of services in relation to the offered amenities can help in choosing a pet hotel that fits the budget while still meeting the pet’s needs.

The Sunday lunch menu, curated by Culinary Director Matt Larcombe – previously head chef for Hester Blumenthal at The Crown in Bray –proved the perfect example of how to offer enough, but not too much, choice.
After a cheeky plate of oysters with our drinks, we ordered the Herdwick lamb leg and the Cumbrian saddleback pork belly, both served with seasonal vegetables, triple cooked roast potatoes and a Yorkshire pudding. The lamb was perfectly pink and tender, while the pork was a good, thick, tasty portion. Roast potatoes were crisp, fluffy and freshly cooked. Cauliflower cheese and extra gravy came without asking.
As far as pub food goes, the Victoria is as close to fine dining as it gets, and – kudos to Head of Hospitality Simon King (formerly of the Ramsay group and The Fat Duck in Bray) – the interior is an Instagrammer’s delight. Of course, this quality comes at a premium and ale lovers may feel that the emphasis is now more ‘gastro’ than ‘pub’.

The White Horse is that most precious thing: a real pub serving great food – and in one of the prettiest villages in the Surrey Hills. It has recently joined the Young’s stable and the Ordinary bitter was the best I’ve tasted in a while.
Manager Ed Kenny is proud to run “an accessible village pub that enjoys fantastic local support”. There’s a real sense of ambition here, with plans to introduce the inn’s own dry-aged meat and more locally sourced produce. Moreover, along with a dedicated bar area, there’s a wonderful garden in which to while away a summer’s afternoon. Whole roasted pheasant was available on the day we visited, but we chose the cider-braised pork belly and special lamb shank. Both the lamb and pork were perfectly cooked and well-presented, with tasty gravy, and the Yorkshires were spot on! thewhitehorsehascombe.com

Autumn is a wonderful time of year at RHS Garden Wisley, with an abundance of vibrant colour on display at every turn
The Royal Horticultural Society took possession of Wisley, situated outside the major Surrey towns of Guildford and Woking, in 1903. At that time, only a small part of the 60-acres estate was cultivated as a garden with the remainder standing as wooded farmland.
George Fergusson Wilson – businessman, scientist, inventor and a former treasurer of the RHS - had been responsible for the original garden which he began in 1878. His experimental ideas had resulted in the garden becoming well known in horticultural circles for its impressive collections of lilies, gentians, Japanese irises, primulas and water plants.
The space was embraced by the RHS becoming its headquarters in 1904. Mr Wilson’s ethos of experimentation has lived on as to this day, Wisley seeks to promote a mix of learning and pleasure throughout what have become its world-renowned gardens.
There is no question that autumn is one of the best times to visit. Here is a guide of what to look for as the season arrives...
Look for vivid changes throughout the garden on acer, oak and beech trees, which provide spectacular sights as the season progresses.
One of the first signs of autumn colour in the garden is the iconic black gum trees on Seven Acres.
In autumn, large groups of asters come to the fore in the Equinox Borders, complemented by autumn flowering Kniphofia (red-hot poker), hardy fuchsias and Hesperantha (crimson flag lily).
There are 650 Aster plants across 20 cultivars – many of them new to Wisley. Another feature plant is Euonymus (spindle), including several mature plants relocated from the arboretum. All of these have excellent autumn colour and some stunning fruit and seed pods.

What was your route into textiles?
I was always drawn to art, constantly creating patterns on anything I could find. This passion led me to the National College of Art and Design in Dublin. Initially, I planned to specialise in visual communication, but after a foundation module, I realised it wasn’t right for me. I then tried a printed textile design module, which opened up an entirely new and exciting world. Captivated by the endless fabric design possibilities, I decided to shift my focus and pursue a BA in textile design instead.
After completing my studies, I showcased my work at New Designers in London, which led to my first job at a textile design studio in the city. I spent many fulfilling years creating textile designs for a range of clients from high street brands to luxury fashion houses.
My journey in textile design has been incredibly rewarding, allowing me to blend my love for art and design with a career that brings creativity to life in the fashion and textile world.
Do you have a favourite medium?
Yes, gouache is my favourite medium at the moment - it has a unique combination of opacity and fluidity, which enables me to capture the subtle nuances of flowers, from the soft gradations of colour in petals to the fine, elegant lines of their stems and leaves.
I especially enjoy working with gouache on good quality 300gsm paper. The weight and texture of this paper provide the perfect surface for the paint, allowing me to build up layers of colour without worrying about the paper buckling or losing its integrity. This is really important when I’m painting florals, as it allows me to maintain the precision and detail that make these subjects so captivating.
What inspires you?
As an artist and designer, I’m deeply inspired by the natural world, particularly florals, leaves and foliage. I’ve been painting flowers since I could first hold a paintbrush, and they have always been my go-to imagery. There’s something about the texture and intricate details found within flowers and plants, their vibrant colours, the organic, twisting shapes of their stems, and the way each layer of foliage weaves together, that has always captivated me.
In my textile work, this passion for nature becomes even more pronounced. I find immense excitement in the release of seasonal catwalk collections, eagerly anticipating which designers have created the most stunning floral prints. There’s a thrill in discovering how others interpret and bring to life the beauty of flowers in their designs.
Similarly, stumbling upon a rare, old botanical book in a charity shop, filled with rich floral references, is a true delight for me. These moments of discovery and inspiration fuel my creativity, driving me to explore and celebrate the endless beauty of nature in my work.
What do you think art brings to someone’s home?
I believe art brings everything to a home. Without it, a space can feel like a soulless hotel, lacking warmth and character. Art infuses a home with personality and creativity, making it a true reflection of the people who live there, turning a house into a home. I’m always drawn to homes where the walls are adorned with an eclectic mix of art, whether it’s a collection that covers every inch or just a few carefully curated pieces. It speaks to me more than any fancy, designer wallpaper (which I also love!), it gives me a real insight into what the homeowner really likes and dislikes.
Do you think Surrey has a lot to offer those interested in working in art?
Farnham, where I live, is a particularly vibrant hub for creativity. Recognised as a World Craft Town, it is a place where the arts are deeply woven into the fabric of the community. The town’s rich history of craftsmanship is celebrated through various initiatives and institutions that support and promote the arts.
One of the key cultural centres is Farnham Maltings, a lovely and lively venue that hosts regular markets, craft workshops and events, providing a space for artists and makers to showcase their work and connect with the community.
The University for the Creative Arts (UCA) which is also based there adds to the town’s dynamic and artistic atmosphere. There’s an ‘arty buzz’ to Farnham, fostering innovation and creativity that permeates the local culture.
The Surrey Open Studios is another highlight of the local scene. I participated in the event last summer - It was a fantastic experience, and I’m already planning to take part again in June 2025, where I look forward to unveiling some new artwork.
Living in Farnham and being part of Surrey’s thriving art community is truly inspiring. The area’s dedication to fostering creativity, along with its rich cultural offerings, makes it an ideal place for anyone passionate about pursuing a career or hobby in the arts.
