BBC One - I Escaped to the Country, Series 5, Staffordshire and Devon

Jules Hudson catches up with a family embarking on an epic restoration of a historic home.

Jules Hudson revisits a family of house-hunters who have made their Devon dream a reality whilst embarking on an epic restoration of a historic home.

They say an Englishman’s home is his castle, and today Jules Hudson catches up with two couples who have bought their very own slice of stately-home living, at either end of the financial scale. He meets a couple who bought one of the beautiful houses they viewed on their original 2019 Escape to the Country property hunt. One year on, he finds out how they’ve settled into country life and whether they managed to find a good curry house in the countryside. Jules then moves on into the rural West Country with house-hunters who have made their multi-generational Devon dream a reality whilst embarking on an epic restoration of a historic home.
