Britain’s exclusive importer of Leroux-Mineau Champagne has announced the launch of their new range, which includes a rather high quality Grand Cru Champagne at a very affordable price. Tom Ellis is the owner of the company and at 20 has certainly made his mark early on.

The current collection is perfect for any celebration and consists of single bottles of Blanc De Blancs (£50), Rosé (£60) and Premiere Vintage (£70) all presented in beautifully engraved, Maple boxes. In addition, the range is available by the case of six bottles; Blanc De Blancs (£115) or Rosé (£150) and a mixed case consisting of three bottles of each (£132.50), all prices include VAT & free delivery. A bottle of Blanc de Blanc works out at just £19 per bottle when bought by the case, which is exceptional value for Grand Cru Champagne and even more appealing considering the current recession.

We’ve had a rather exclusive sneaky peak at a new boutique hotel set to open in September 2009. It’s called ‘The Scarlet’ and is positioned on a spectacular cliff top site in Mawgan Porth, Newquay.

It’s not only going to become one of Cornwall’s premier luxury hotels, but it’s also Cornwall’s first eco hotel. It’s currently undergoing development work which will ultimately see it boast 37 bedrooms and suites featuring private gardens and balconies, a destination restaurant, bar and Ayurvedic spa, as well as unique features such as outdoor log fired hot tubs and a natural reed-bed swimming pool.

Take to the seas and experience beauty and adventure aboard the Tiger Blue – a 34 metre long Phinisi yacht constructed on a beach in South Sulawesi.  The vessel can be chartered for an amazing journey around the Indonesian archipelago. 

Owned by David Wilkinson and Nigel Foster, the Tiger Blue has been a life long dream.  They had wanted to build a boat from which to dive and explore the islands of South East Asia and dreamed of their ultimate vessel – a traditional Phinisi motor sailor with modern conveniences.  Now that dream is reality and they are sharing it with the world!
