My Unique B&B: Series 2: Rebecca and Ralph's Bender

Rebecca and Ralph's Bender

BBC Two - My Unique B&B, Series 2, Rebecca and Ralph's Bender

Simon and team are in Dorset to build a unique and very colorful B&B.

Simon and team head to Dorset to help musicians Ralph and Dizzy rebuild their bender, a simple shelter made from hazel sticks.

In Dorset, musicians Ralph and Dizzy live on a farm with their extended family and run woodland workshops in their bender, a simple shelter made from hazel sticks. They want to make the existing structure more attractive to paying customers and have asked Simon and his team to help build it.

Simon orders the demolition of the original bender and sets about designing a place built almost entirely with hazel harvested from the surrounding woodland and upcycled or reused materials. Ralph, Dizzy and their friends are brought in to help build the structure.

Top carpenter Ian Tsang gets to grips with the doorway and a central skylight to bring light into the structure, Simon works out how to integrate the huge chapel windows Dizzy has found, and designers Zoe Hewitt and Sophie Dunn create a colourful interior using dozens of blankets, carpets and throws. 

Inspiration comes from a trip to Garden House Yurt in West Sussex, another dome-shaped B&B where owner Lindsay has mixed traditional Mongolian design with bohemian chic.
