Nuffield Health
Our Holiday Property team specialists
have recently provided a number
of valuations of holiday properties
including a valuation of the Park
Resorts Portfolio, ahead of its merger
with Parkdean Holidays. The team
valued 38 holiday parks, out of their 49
sites in England, Wales and Scotland.
Added to that, we continue to carry
out the annual valuation work for The
Holiday Property Bond.

Recent instructions demonstrate
our team’s strong position
and ability to win, develop
and carry out large-scale
portfolio projects. This is now a
considerable area of growth for
the team and wider business.
Below are some of the recent
large instructions we have been
working on and have managed
to secure.
Royal Bank of Scotland
We have been awarded a five year
full service corporate mandate to
advise on the entire RBS/Natwest
occupational portfolio across the UK
and Eire. A significant focus will be
on asset management responsibility,
incorporating major acquisition and
disposal campaigns.
We have recently been instructed by
Nuffield Health to provide full asset
management and property services
on their entire property portfolio, which
demonstrates our expertise in the
Leisure sector and scope for strategic
portfolio and asset management.
All of these major portfolios are clear
examples of the experience and
standing we have in the Retail, Hotels
and Leisure market, and the great work
we undertake to create successful
client partnerships. n
Pub company portfolios
Our Leisure team has been busy over
the summer period carrying out major
pub portfolio valaution work. These
include over 3,750 valuations for Punch
Taverns, over 2,000 pub valuations for
Enterprise Inns and around 230 pub
valuations for Brains. In total, the team
has carried out an impressive 6,000
annual valuations, or thereabouts,
which equates to over 10% of the UK
pub stock.
Staples
We provide portfolio strategy advice to
Staples, as part of a wider corporate
mandate. This includes agency,
treasury, rating, lease consultancy,
distribution, offices and portfolio
management. Our Retail Agency Team
is also currently advising on right-sizing
and various asset management
initiatives across the wider portfolio.

Birmingham’s super September
Birmingham is currently thriving,
as some of its most important
and high profile developments
begin to come online.
September is the start of an
important couple of months, as
The Mailbox prepares to open,
giving shoppers their first look at
the completed refurbishment. In
addition, shoppers will soon be
able to wander around the 52
stores on offer at Grand Central,
and visit the largest John Lewis
store outside of London.
The excitement in Birmingham,
which has so many retail and leisure
developments underway, or in the
pipeline, makes it the perfect time
to review what is happening in this
prospering market.
Alastair Robertson-Dunn, Director

The transformation of The Mailbox,
Birmingham’s premier luxury retail
destination, has seen a roof added
to the central mall and a new larger
store for anchor tenant Harvey Nichols.
Owners Milligan and Brockton Capital
have created a holistic luxury shopping
experience supported by a plethora
of high-end bars and restaurants
situated on the canal side at the rear
of the development. Bilfinger GVA is
the leasing agents on The Mailbox
development.
CONTENTS
Nearby is Grand Central that recently
re-opened, which represents the
culmination of a project that has
created a purpose-built retail and
leisure destination. Its combination
of 21st Century architecture, great
location and high footfall has attracted
over 50 occupiers, many of whom will
be using this space to deliver either their
first presence outside of London or, in
some cases, their first in the UK.
On the other side of Grand Central is
Hammerson’s hugely popular Bullring
Shopping Centre. Anchor tenant,
Selfridges, completed a substantial £20
million refit of its store across all three
levels last year, and plans are already in
place for the Bullring to further expand
its food offering into Spiceal Street,
following the successful opening of
three new units there in 2011.
Behind the Bullring is the 34.2 acre
Smithfield development. Representing
one of the largest regeneration
projects in Birmingham’s history, plans
have been lodged for the delivery of
museums, cinemas, art galleries and
music venues. Alongside the recently
approved plans for the development of
the first building on the Beorma Quarter
site, Smithfield will have a significant
impact on Digbeth. Effectively it will lay
the groundwork for the extension to the
south of the city’s core, and will unlock
the potential of this predominantly
industrial area.
Heading back towards the Eastside and
Birmingham City University is Martineau
Galleries, an established mixed-use
destination. The 6.5 acre site already
has planning approval in place for
the delivery of over 900,000 sq ft of
retail and 215,000 sq ft of leisure use,
alongside substantial office and cultural
spaces. Adjacent to this site, and
completing the cluster of high-profile
properties at the head of New Street,
is the Pavilions, an asset that is due to
receive a significant boost following
its purchase last year by Primark.
Already home to M&S and H&M, the
development will also soon be home to
Primark’s new city centre store, covering
150,000 sq ft over four floors, and three
times the size of its current New Street
location.
However, retail and leisure within
Birmingham isn’t confined to specific
sites and developments. It has risen to
become a key factor in investors’ and
corporate occupiers’ perceptions of
the value of buildings. The integration
of amenities of this type into key mixed
use and commercially-driven schemes
is now fundamental, particularly when it
comes to the big name developments
that will be shaping Birmingham’s skyline
over the next few years.
This is evident in the designs for
commercial buildings at Paradise
and Arena Central, as they have so
far featured quality retail space or
restaurant and café provision at ground
level, providing an additional incentive
for occupiers. This trend is also being
transferred into existing commercial
buildings, such as Three Brindleyplace,
whose ground floor will be renovated to
make space for up to three restaurants.
Two of the units have already been
snapped up by operators CAU and Zizzi.
These major projects are the true
engines of change and their effect is
instant throughout the city, particularly in
their immediate areas. As an example,
the relocation of New Street’s main
entrance to Stephen Street, and the
positioning of John Lewis, have had a
positive impact on Temple Street and
John Bright Street respectively, attracting
bar and café operators that see the
growth potential in these locations.
Furthermore, ongoing improvements
to Birmingham’s infrastructure, such as
the extension to the Midlands Metro
Line from Snow Hill, and the promise of
HS2, will contribute to the city’s shifting
retail map. Apple, for instance, has
already shown some interest in taking
the existing Waterstones store on the
corner of New Street and Stephenson
Street, promoting further changes to
the city’s established retail pitches
and encouraging the development of
brand new leisure destinations.
Whatever changes are underway,
or in the pipeline, this is only the
beginning of what is set to become an
exciting period for retail and leisure in
Birmingham, and one that will further
boost the city’s already outstanding
reputation as a key UK destination. n
Refurbishing your hotel? Let us help you save some cash!

St Pancras Renaissance, London
We provide business rates mitigation advice on this 5* hotel

Hotel refurbishments have
always offered opportunities
to reduce rate liabilities during
works programmes (even if
they are relatively soft). Through
the appeal process and
negotiation with the Valuation
Office Agency (VOA), our
National Rating Team has
had considerable success in
reflecting the temporary hit
on revenue from the loss of
the bedrooms and additional
revenue areas.
Since the beginning of the year,
however, the VOA has refused to
resolve appeals following an unhelpful
precedent set in the Tribunal decision
(Monk V Newbiggin). Unless the hotel
has been structurally altered, softer
refurbishments are now classified by
the VOA as repair and they will not
sanction reductions.
Although we are challenging the
decision, it will take time and does not
help our clients more immediate cash
flow concerns.
All is not lost however! Through an
initiative, we have challenged billing
authority discretionary powers to grant
relief. Fundamental to this approach is
that applications must be lodged while
the works are on-going. Retrospective
applications severely reduce the
prospect of success.
So, whenever you are planning
refurbishments, engage with our Hotel
Business Rates team, led by Senior
Director David Jones, to ensure your
position can be mitigated. n
A recent case study is a well-known
five-star hotel in the theatre district of
London, where we circumvented the
appeal process to secure £200,000
savings in 10 weeks during a three
phase bedroom refurbishment!

Interestingly, behind London, the North
of England and Scotland are the next
most established locations within the
sector; driven by steady developer
interest in key regional cities such as
Edinburgh, Manchester, Glasgow and
Liverpool.
Apart-hotel Room Supply and Pipeline
la
Currently, supply is largely concentrated
in London, which accounts for almost
54% of all apart-hotel rooms across
the UK. London has been the ‘focal
hotspot’ for many of the international
brands who have started to launch and
subsequently grow their apart-hotel
concepts in the UK market.
We are also aware that a large
Australian serviced apartment operator
is currently looking at the market with
ot
As at May 2015, the regional UK aparthotel sector recorded an average
occupancy of 83%, with an Average
Daily Rate (ADR) of £89; representing
healthy growth on the same period in
2014 (data provided by STR Global).
While demand in the London sector
was broadly on par with the regional
UK average for the same period, the
ADR for the sector was almost double
at £174 (May 2015); outstripping the
London hotel market for the same
period (£132).
Sc
Whilst the sector has expanded fairly
rapidly in recent years, it still remains
under represented when compared to
more established U.S., European and
Australian markets.
Continuing the current trend, the North
of England and Scotland display the
fastest regional growth with existing
supply expected to almost double in
the near future. With 1,316 additional
rooms in the pipeline, Manchester is the
fastest expanding city in the extended
stay category in the regions, followed
by Liverpool and Edinburgh (983 and
916 apartments respectively). n
n
The market also continues to perform
well, enjoying high levels of occupancy
and healthy average daily rates, often
higher than their hotel counterparts.
do
With over 19,000 rooms in the UK, the
apart-hotel sector is now beginning to
firmly establish its position within the UK
lodging sector.
Oaktree Capital and SACO recently
merged their serviced apartment
division and jointly announced their
new apart-hotel brand, Beyonder. With
10 developments under construction
across the UK, the properties will start
to open from early 2016 and the
group continues to actively seek further
opportunities for the rollout of the brand.

Our specialist environmental services
Instructing environmental
surveys may not necessarily be
the first thing to consider when
disposing of retail and leisure
premises, but experience has
shown how valuable such
surveys are in concluding
property deals.
Environmental risks need to be
understood and quantified as they
can detrimentally affect value, impact
on the continued use and, in some
instances, cause the regulatory
authorities to take an active interest in
the property.

CONTENTS
A carefully planned, vendor-led
environmental due diligence exercise,
will often require an assessment of the
following issues:
• Contamination and clean-up liability
• Flood risk and drainage
• Hazardous substances
• Regulatory compliance
A good example is the case of the sale
of a retail outlet in central Coventry that
we have recently been involved with.
The client was already in possession of
previous environmental reports written
in 2011 and was keen to provide these,
rather than commission new work as
part of the sales process.
The existing reports identified that the
property was located within a flood
• Health and safety issues
• Future capital expenditure (CAPEX)
requirements.
Environmental due diligence is not
only useful in situations where there
are known or perceived risks, but a
growing number of property funds and
financial institutions will only invest in
properties where a low environmental /
flood risk assessment has been carried
out. In these situations, environmental
due diligence reports are considered
essential to verify the level of risk.
Persuading a vendor to carry out and
pay for environmental due diligence is
usually an uphill struggle, particularly if
they have not previously undertaken a
similar exercise.
Often clients will want a potential
purchaser to undertake their own
environmental investigation at their
own cost, rather than incurring costs
themselves, with no obvious or
guaranteed return. In such cases,
there is the chance that some vendors
become like Oscar Wilde’s cynic,
knowing “the price of everything and
the value of nothing”.
risk zone with a surface water culvert
running beneath the property.
Our specialist environmental services
These risks were such that a number of
potential purchasers pulled out of the
deal on completion of their acquisition
due diligence. We advised that further
assessment should be undertaken,
in terms of ground contamination/
flood risk, to better understand the risk
to the property and whether it had
altered since the original reports were
undertaken. Our Environmental Team
was instructed to undertake a fresh suite
of surveys on this basis.
No new issues from a ground
contamination perspective were
identified, but more recent flood
modelling data had been generated
by the Environment Agency, which
confirmed that the risk of flooding had
been downgraded since the original
reports had been produced.
By undertaking this work we were able
to reflect this improved position and
present a better risk profile in the vendor
pack. Subsequently, the vendor was
able to conclude the deal quickly and
without any reduction in the sale price.
In conclusion, we believe the
benefits of undertaking vendor due
diligence are substantial, and can be
summarised as follows:
Control – The vendor can
independently assess and determine
the cost of the issues that are likely to
have a material effect on a sale. In
contrast, purchaser-led due diligence
removes control from the vendor
and could result in price-chipping,
time-wasting and multiple requests for
access to the property.
Confidentiality – The vendor can
ensure confidentiality by managing
the release of information, avoiding
unnecessary and potentially costly
investigations.
Cost – It may be cheaper for the
vendor to carry out the investigations,
using their own consultant to present an
accurate picture of environmental risks
and their associated costs.
Speed – Carrying out due diligence,
before a proposed sale is announced,
can speed up the sale process
because environmental issues will not
be subject to last-minute negotiations.

sales process far outweigh the initial
outlay of costs. Generally, we are able
to undertake such reports for a few
thousand pounds and prevent pricechipping, which in some cases can run
into hundreds of thousands of pounds. n
We were the first leading UK property
consultancy to establish a dedicated
in-house environmental capability

• The volume of retail sales in June-August was 0.4% higher than in the previous
three month period, which is the lowest three month on three month growth
since November 2013. Compared with the same period a year ago, sales
volumes rose 3.9% pa (June-August). The latest figures show a gradual slowing
of this underlying rate from around 5.5% pa at the start of the year.
•The recovery in food sales appears to have stalled, with sales falling month on

compared with the previous three months, and pulled down the underlying rate
of growth from around 2.9% pa in March to 1.4% pa. Growth in non-food sales
has also eased since the end of 2014, although remains fairly robust at 4.2% pa
June-August, with strong deflation remaining within the sector.
• Internet sales (by value) continue to outpace in-store sales by a considerable
margin, with an average online weekly spend in August of £800m. This is a 7.4%
increase on August 2014, significantly higher than the equivalent 0.2% pa rise for
in-store sales. It is however the lowest rate of growth in internet sales since November
2012. By value, internet sales currently equate to c.12% of total retail sales. n

• T he UK economy continues to grow at a robust pace, underpinned by
consumer spending and is set to be one of the fastest growing G7 economies
in 2015. Forecasts show overall growth of 2.6% pa, close to trend, and a similar
2.5% pa in 2016.
• T he labour market remains fairly resilient, although has cooled a little over
the summer. Figures for July show total employment was up for both full-time
(+361,000) and part-time (+52,000) employees compared with a year ago,
with the unemployment rate standing at 5.5%.
•W
ages are continuing to grow, which coupled with zero inflation and the
expectation that interest rates will not rise until early next year, should help
to support consumer spending. The recent slowing of sales growth however
suggests a steadier pace rather than a return to some of the more exceptional
levels of spending in recent years. n

stores in the Midlands.
We have completed the letting of Mendip
District Council’s leisure portfolio to Fusion
Lifestyle, following an open marketing
campaign, which generated significant
interest. Fusion Lifestyle took over the operation
of the portfolio, which comprises Frome Leisure
Centre, Wells Leisure Centre, Strode Swimming
Pool & Fitness Centre, Tor Sports & Leisure
Centre and Shepton Mallet Lido.
We have been instructed by private
developers, Hembrey and Isherwood to
market 45,000 sq ft of leisure and retail space
fronting Ipswich Marina, which pays host to
Fairline Yachts, Suffolk University and many
new residential developments, restaurants
and hotels. What is most exciting about the
scheme, is that it was purchased from the
Administrators and is thus largely complete
and ready to occupy. The units directly
adjacent to the quayside are double height
and offer stunning views over the marina.
Eddie Catz
We are currently looking for suitable sites for
Eddie Catz, a soft play and entertainment
centre for children in Greater London and the
South East. Please contact Charlie Ready for
more information.
ZIP World and Treetop Nets
Our Leisure team is working with two relatively
new adventure concept companies: ZIP
World and Treetop Nets, to find suitable
sites for their expansion in the UK. Both
leisure brands are looking to expand rapidly
over the next couple of years, having
already established successful trading
models in North Wales and the Lake District
respectively. Please contact Richard Baldwin
for more information.
Flux Freestyle
We are actively looking for new premises,
open warehouse space, in London and
the South East for this indoor trampoline
concept. For more information please
contact Charlie Ready.
Crown Entertainment Centres
Our leisure specialists have successfully
completed the sale of Blackpool Central and
Blackpool South piers on behalf of established
leisure operator Crown Entertainment Centres.
The piers, which were on the market for a
combined £8.1 million, have been acquired
by Peter Sedgwick and his family, who
purchased the town’s North Pier in 2011. The
sale follows our sale of Llandudno Pier in May,
as part of the same portfolio.
Aberconwy Resort and Spa
We have recently completed the sale
of Aberconwy Resort and Spa on the
North Wales coast to Darwin West Country
(Guernsey) Ltd, for an undisclosed sum.
Aberconwy will now join the ‘Darwin Escapes’
collection of luxury holiday resorts and
retreats, comprising 292 holiday pitches.
Lewisham Hospital
We have secured four new retailers on behalf
of Lewisham Hospital for the development’s
newly revamped entrance space. Muffin
Break has taken 1,001 sq ft on a ten year
lease at £55,000 pa, while Boots has taken
1,109 sq ft, also on a ten-year lease, at
£100,000 pa. The remaining two units are
under offer on ten-year leases to Martin
McColl and Café Qualita.
SA Brain
We have been instructed by SA Brain, the
Welsh based brewery, to dispose of five
pub properties in locations from Cardiff
to Swansea as a result of their on-going
rationalisation programme. The pubs offer
potential for alternative uses and are located
in a mix of urban and rural locations.
Build-A-Bear Workshop
It has been a very busy year for Build
-A–Bear Workshop. They have relocated in
Meadowhall and re-geared in locations such
as Uxbridge, Canterbury, Bristol, Southampton
and Doncaster. Recently we acquired their
first two outlet stores in the UK. Both are
McArthurGlen schemes. One is theSwindon
Designer Outlet store and the other is the York
Designer Outlet store. If these are successful
they may look to expand into further outlets
across the country.
Scottish Development International
Our Scottish Retail, Hotels and Leisure
Consultancy team were delighted to be
awarded a three year contract from Scottish
Development International (SDI) to provide
investment support on a number of hotel
developments. Projects for both owners and
developers will range from city centre hotels to
rural golf and spa resorts. Our role will include
researching and identifying the “best-fit” product
positioning, scaling and facility mix to meet
the market opportunity. We will then appraise
the opportunity from an investment viewpoint,
including detailed financial projections and will
assess suitable brands and operators.
Lane 7
Our Retail Agency team in the Midlands has
secured the sole national acquisition work for
Lane 7, a new concept stylised bowling alley
with American dining and ping pong, plus a
trendy bar and restaurant. Shortly we expect
to be under offer on their second venue in
Birmingham, following their successful first
venue in Newcastle.
