Reserva da Luz is the brainchild of Viscount Developments, a Portuguese company established by two British businessmen Christopher Burr and Keith Carre who have been resident in Portugal for many years.

Christopher Burr (pictured right), a chartered accountant, owned a chain of regional newspapers in the UK. After retiring to the Algarve in at 45 he became a scratch golfer within two years of starting out. In 2002 he met partner Keith Carre and decided to build and manage the “outstanding site” that is "Reserva da Luz".

Keith Carre (pictured centre right) is a qualified project engineer who has lived and worked in the Algarve since 1988 and is widely experienced in the design and construction techniques needed to build the best quality homes in this special climatic region of Europe. He worked for nine years for Mowlem plc in the Algarve and was responsible for the building of 300 units at a golf and country club near Alvor. Prior to his move to Portugal he worked for 10 years in the Middle East where he supervised the construction of some 1500 homes.

Many clients will also be familiar with the friendly voice of our secretarial and administration assistant Kristie Jones, who is pictured outside the Reserva da Luz site sales office.
