Escape to the Country

Cumbria (10x23)

Air date: Oct 27, 2009

Alistair Appleton is in the Lake District with a young-at-heart outdoor-loving couple looking for a lifestyle change. With retirement looming they are ready to leave their family home of 22 years behind, but after 18 months of house searching they have failed to find their Lakeland dream. With £450,000 to spend, they are looking for a minimum of three bedrooms, an open plan kitchen/diner, a small easily maintained garden and top of their wish-list, a village pub.
