İletişim Bilgileri (Contact): The purpose of the competition is to demonstrate that a country house of the
very highest quality together with its landscaping, can be built in a truly
exceptional setting and both enhance its surroundings and contribute to the
nation's architectural heritage. The scheme is to include some landscaping of
the parkland and gardens around the house. Applicants are asked to submit a scheme for a new country house of the very highest architectural quality to be built on an 80-acre site in a valley which lies within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The proposal should comply with the requirements of Para 3.2.1 of Planning Policy Guidance note 7: The Countryside - Environmental Quality and Economic and Social Development ('PPG 7') which states: "New house building and other new development in the open countryside,
away from established settlements or from areas allocated for development in
development plans, should be strictly controlled. The fact that a single house
on a particular site would be unobtrusive is not by itself a good argument; it
could be repeated too often. Isolated new houses in the countryside require
special justification - for example, where they are essential to enable farm or
forestry workers to live at or near their place of work. Advice on the special
considerations which may arise in relation to agricultural and forestry
dwellings is given in Annex I. An isolated new house in the countryside may also
exceptionally be justified if it is clearly of the highest quality, is truly
outstanding in terms of its architecture and landscape design, and would
significantly enhance its immediate setting and wider surroundings. Proposals
for such development would need to demonstrate that proper account had been
taken of the defining characteristics of the local area, including local or
regional building traditions and materials. This means that each generation
would have the opportunity to add to the tradition of the Country House which
has done so much to enhance the English countryside. Sensitive infilling of
small gaps within small groups of houses or minor extensions to groups may also
be acceptable though much would depend on the character of the surroundings and
the number of such groups in the area…" be truly outstanding in terms of its architecture and landscape design significantly enhance its immediate setting and wider surroundings be capable of demonstrating that proper account has been taken of the
defining characteristics of the local area, including both local or regional
building traditions and materials take proper account of the needs of the elderly and the disabled meet the Cardales requirements for a family home (as set out below) The site General location (see Annexe 1) Proposed location of house (see Annexe 2) It is intended that the plot will be developed to provide a country house
together with ancillary buildings, park and gardens (in the style of a rectory
or small manor house in the classical style), sympathetic to the local
vernacular, as a home for the Cardales. The new house should be constructed
using traditional materials, conforming to the objectives stated above, whilst
also reflecting the fundamental changes in lifestyle which have occurred in
recent years. The servicing of the building should involve best modern
technology utilising the best available techniques not employing excessive cost.
In particular it must:- contain at its core a space or series of interconnecting spaces in which the family and their guests can cook, eat, relax, entertain, play games and watch television make provision for working at home provide flexible guest and staff accommodation relate to its immediate surroundings. In particular, the curtilage will need careful consideration and applicants will need to set out clearly how the curtilage will be defined The preferred development plot has been chosen after careful consideration by
the Cardales, in consultation with the Local Planning Authority, based on the
desire to optimise the views from the proposed house and to capitalise upon the
microclimate of the site. Applicants do however have the freedom to vary the
position /aspect of the house so as to ameliorate these aspects. The specification given below is for guidance purposes only and to act as an aide memoire for applicants. Alternative interpretations which meet the broad specification will be welcomed. General accommodation for up to 8 guests (including children) in comfort, but not all integral with the main house consideration of the needs of the elderly and disabled (all principal rooms
should be capable of wheelchair access, and provision made for a lift shaft in
the design) The design of the house, ancillary buildings and setting should be fully
integrated, including existing and proposed landscape planting, proposed
location of croquet lawn and all weather tennis court, and including the best
outward views from the house. Definition of the curtilage and the way in which
it is handled in design terms is of critical importance. A large drawing room of elegant proportions should be adjoining and interconnecting to a less formal smaller sitting room/library so that both rooms can be opened up and circulate back to the front hall for entertaining purposes. These rooms should face south and west, the drawing room being predominantly west. Open fireplaces should be provided for in both rooms and consideration given to providing bookshelves in the library and display shelving in the drawing room. The kitchen will be the heart of the house, and should be very large and face south and east. It will need to include family living and dining areas, with walk in larder and extensive china cupboard. It is envisaged that the 'working kitchen' area of the room will be relatively small and discrete (a "galley" kitchen) and an orangery or conservatory on the eastern side would be welcome to maximise natural light and the views from the room. The kitchen will need to accommodate an aga as well as a wood burning stove or open fire. The back hall should adjoin the kitchen (with back door to outside car parking area) with separate (large) boots room and cloakroom (including wc) with plenty of storage and hanging space. The formal dining room should be capable of seating 16. This will not be much used An office/study capable of being fully equipped with two desks pcs and all
modern office paraphernalia. The three children's bedrooms should each be large enough to accommodate two single beds, with both study- and play-space and good storage facilities. Adjoining the childrens' bedrooms should be a shower room with wc, and a large children's bathroom with bath, shower, wc and twin hand basins. A further two bedrooms with bathrooms ensuite should be included, not necessarily in the main house, one a good-sized double bedroom (king sized bed) the other a smaller large single or small double (Queen size bed). Further guest and staff accommodation should be provided in an annexe over the barn / stables (see below). All Bathrooms should have external windows. Provision should be made for a large airy laundry/ironing/sewing room at bedroom floor level with sinks, 2 washers and 2 dryers and substantial airing cupboard and storage space. The room should be capable of use even with the ironing board up all the time! Landing/corridor areas should be kept to a minimum, but where necessary, the
width of such should be capable of both accommodating furniture and allowing
free passage of a wheelchair Recreational and other facilities A separate 'barn' with large open area for party entertaining, capable of accommodating a pool table and table tennis table with a sitting area, and with a small galley kitchen. This area should have good storage facilities. A cloakroom with wc off should be included at ground floor level. Further guest accommodation should be incorporated above of two double bedrooms with ensuite facilities, and a further single bedroom to connect to one of the ensuite bathrooms. Barn should open out to garden area for barbecues etc and link to the main house with through access. A range of outbuildings (to store garden equipment, garden furniture, bicycle shed, tractor store and workshop), and to include garaging for four cars. The garages should be capable of being accessed under cover from the house. Staff accommodation should be provided over garages. Consideration needs to be given to providing adequate and discreet guest parking space so as not to detract in any way from the buildings or gardens. Outdoor all weather tennis court. Stable block with eight loose boxes, feedstore and tack room, to be located
away from the house (exact location to be determined), with easy access to the
road. Groom's flat to be provided above feedstore and tackroom. Careful consideration must be given to the overriding objectives set out by PPG 7. Applicants must describe the anticipated relationship of the building with its immediate setting, and the manner in which items such as terracing adjacent to the house with sheltered eating/sitting areas, a croquet lawn and a tennis court can be accommodated. Applicants are required to define clearly the curtilage of the dwellings and to describe how this will be handled in landscape/architectural terms. The Cardales intend to appoint an appropriately qualified landscape architect to work with the winner to work up the external design proposals in greater detail prior to the submission of the Planning Application. Particular consideration should be given to the approach to the house and the
driveway, having regard to any potential impact upon the landscape, and upon the
views of the landscape both from the house and from the opposite side of the
valley. All car parking should be on north side of house. As far as possible
applicants should work with the contours of the landscape to conceal the drive,
and the applicants' submission should describe the qualities pertaining to their
design of the landscaping. Drawings will be submitted on three A1 lightweight foam boards. Competitors
may illustrate their designs as they wish but drawings must include: elevations, sections (and, if wished, perspectives) at a scale of the competitors choosing one A1 board should be dedicated to illustrating the principles relating to
the site plan, setting, curtilage and landscaping Submissions should be accompanied by a written report (max.3xA4 single sided
pages) describing the competitors approach to the design and, in particular
describing: the way in which the competitor has sought to enhance the immediate setting
and wider surroundings of the house The panel comprises a group of highly respected individuals, each pre-eminent
