Guy Ritchie, the British director known for his stylized gangster films such Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch. Yet one could argue his true passion lies in his Wild Kitchen Capstone. Part of his Cashmere Caveman Co, it is an innovative take on outdoor entertaining, primeval cooking, with luxurious features and modern comforts for fire, food and friends.

A deep legacy arises when a person and a place fuse into a single cultural force, each helping amplify and defining the other. Muse and place…. Brigitte Bardot (known as B.B.) and St Tropez. B.B. didn’t just discover St Tropez, she transformed it, and in turn the town offered her sanctuary and myth. Few partnerships have been so symbiotic that both became iconic. Here we explore how they shaped one another, and in doing so, shaped culture itself

Château du Rayet sits close to the medieval bastide of Villeréal, where the landscapes of Lot-et-Garonne and historic Périgord meet. The countryside unfolds gently rather than dramatically. The building has stood for centuries, the surrounding landscape has changed remarkably little, and life still follows rhythms that would be instantly recognisable to those who lived here generations ago. That was the opportunity Gareth and Becky Rees recognised when they first discovered Château du Rayet. More than a beautiful château, they had found a timeless corner of rural France in which to create their family Capstone for generations to come.
