Sonali Shah finds out whether one couple succeeded in creating their own back-garden pub.

Sonali Shah finds out whether one couple succeeded in creating their own back-garden pub, and in Herefordshire she looks around a stunning renovation of a house from the 1700s.

Sonali Shah meets up with a couple who bought one of the houses presented to them on a 2019 Escape to the Country property hunt in Bedfordshire. A year on, she finds out how they have embraced chic, country-cottage decor and discovers whether they have managed to recreate their all-important back-garden pub. Sonali then makes her way to the land of apple orchards with a couple who have put down roots together in the Herefordshire countryside after renovating a stunning property from the 1700s.
