Overlooking the lively marina in Estepona on the Costa del Sol, Belgravia
is an elegant development of town houses built 10 years ago. Peter and Linda
bought off plan, and so were able to divide up the internal living areas
to their own design. They plumped for open space. "Here we could be
self-indulgent," says Peter. "We are used to living in towns like
London and New York where space is at a premium, so we went for open-plan
with only arches as the visual divide."
The house has been designed with the view in mind: there are large picture
windows on all sides to bring the outside into the room. The arched windows
are particularly spectacular.

Peter is an Englishman with Italy and Spain in his heart. Their home reflects
the two nationalities.

We had an absolutely delightful trip to Spain
- thanks to you. We luxuriated in your villa, the weather was simply perfect,
and we followed all of your recommendations with pleasure. 'Robbie’s'
was the best restaurant we hit there. We also adored strolling down to
the Estepona Port and gorging ourselves at 'El Cazador' and 'El Puerto'.
Can we book now, for next year!

How lovely to have such a luxuriously large house for just the two of us!
It felt like being in a palace - with our bedroom on one floor, drawing
room on the next, and dining on the third - as well as the roof terrace,
outside the studio.

Our family have fallen in love with your house. We had such a fun family
holiday, and were thrilled that your house is not only lovely but so big
that we could have some privacy from our three young children, 3, 8 and
9. It was great we could just walk along to the beach in two minutes, and
stroll into the Marina for fun food, without having to get the family into
the car.

Four fashion shoots and a promotion - using
your fabulous house as base - was a joy for the fashion team, models, photgrapher
and hair and make-up team. Thanks to your stylish rooms - which look like
still lives for 'Interiors' - we could show the clothes in a glamorous,
life-style setting. We loved your house, the surrounding grounds, the Estepona
Marina, and your wonderful advice. Thank you, thank you!

We had a wonderful time in your beautiful house. Our Finance Director insists
that we book your house in March-April every year, for a Company golfing
break.

Just a note to say how much we enjoyed our winter month in your house.
Your housekeeper was such a help, and the house was so warm - even on rainy
days. How beautifully you have furnished it. We came back home determined
to bring your colours into our home. It was a joy, and my husband happily
played his golf, while I foraged around the markets.
