Which is your favourite Omaze mega-mansion? Perhaps it's the £2.5million 'Forest House' in Dorset or last month's seven-bed Cheshire pad. But what is it REALLY like to win in this much-coveted lottery?
Perhaps it's the £2.5million 'Forest House' in Dorset, complete with woodland views, tropical landscaping, a lot of very shiny windows and an outdoor shower, which is the prize in this month's property raffle.Or you might still be pining for either the £3million sandstone villa in Mallorca in a 'palette of creams, off-whites and earth tones', or the £3.5million Scotland house, festooned with fake fur throws, which were up for grabs recently.
'I am sure Ron made it happen,' she laughs, as we stand on the quayside in Fowey and stare at it across the water as workmen — or maybe it's cleaners, or security staff or someone to service the underfloor heating, it's hard to tell from here — buzz about between the main house and the separate yoga studio.
It is big, glassy, very luxurious and, with six bedrooms, that yoga studio and private jetty, it felt far too big when — after one extended, glorious summer holiday with all her extended family — it was just June and her daughter left rattling about in it.So she promptly sold it, pocketed the £4.5million, paid off her three children's mortgages, but didn't bother upgrading her old Nissan Micra, and now has enough left in the pot for a lot of rainy days.
And Uttam Parmar, a 59-year-old operations manager from Leicestershire, sold the stunning £3million Cornish home with a hot tub and panoramic views of the Camel Estuary he won in August 2022. A full-length window overlooking a private terrace allowing Mr Bell views of the countryside from his bed or the freestanding vintage-style tub
It has been hard to avoid since it launched in the UK during lockdown in 2020 — what brilliant timing when we were all shut up in our homes dreaming of something better. You can enter by buying tickets online, setting up a monthly subscription, or by post — which is free, but limits you to one entry per postcard.
Daren Bell has no interest in winning another house — 'that would just be greedy,' he says. But he tells me he left his monthly Omaze subscription running so the money can go to the nominated charity each month. Ms Carwardine's friends at first didn't believe she had really won. 'They'd always assumed it was too good to be true. That it wasn't real,' she says
'It's an entertainment product,' says Oakes. 'You get the enjoyment of entering and fantasising about the incredible prizes and contributing to something meaningful.' A mystery winner now owns this luxurious house in Scotland, worth £3.5million - it will be a big hit with them if they are a golfing fan as it is near the famous Gleneagles golf course
