De Savaray, who owned both ends of Britain, dies suddenly

Owning Land’s End would be enough to satisfy most entrepreneurs, but Peter de Savary could also once boast John o’Groats as part of his property empire.

One of Britain’s most colorful characters, de Savary died suddenly at the weekend aged 78. His third wife Lana tells me: “Peter was extraordinary, not only as a businessman but as a wonderful mentor, loving husband and father of five daughters . He was remarkable, a huge gap will be left in our lives.’

De Savary, who is understood to have died near his houseboat on the River Thames in Chelsea, put his Cotswolds mansion on the market for £10.5million in 2016 so that Lana would not be burdened with the 207-acre Manor Hall estate after he was gone .

“I don’t want to risk leaving her with a house this size to manage alone,” he said at the time.

The son of a French-born Essex farmer, De Savary (pictured) was expelled from Charterhouse School aged 16, after being caught in bed with the headmaster’s au pair.

He made his first million when he was 30, after starting an import-export business and selling goods to Africa. He then amassed a fortune from the regeneration of industrial wasteland. He had interests in shipping and petrol but is probably best known for his work in hospitality. He founded the St James’s Club chain with venues from London and Paris to New York, Los Angeles and Antigua.

He also started the Carnegie Club at Skibo Castle, which was the backdrop for Madonna’s wedding to Guy Ritchie.

A keen sailor, De Savary led the British sailing team in two failed attempts to win the America’s Cup.

While traveling with his family from the Caribbean in 1987, he was in a plane crash that required one of his young daughters to be resuscitated on the beach.

The near-death experience proved decisive. “At that point, my philosophy of life changed,” he said. “When you really look death in the eye, you know it’s a pretty weak thing we’re hanging on to.”

De Savary announced that he would leave none of his reputed £100m fortune to his five children, declaring: ‘They will not have the responsibility and the great task of trying to preserve or expand or continue any of my endeavours. ‘
