Pentillie Castle & Estate (1x6)

Data di messa in onda: Gen 13, 2009

Pentillie is a £25million, Grade Two listed castle and 2,000 acre estate in Cornwall. It was built in 1698 in a commanding position overlooking the River Tamar. For nearly 30 years, Ted and Sarah Coryton have lived just a mile from Pentillie, wondering if one day it would be theirs. It belonged to Ted's cousin Jeffrey, but to inherit, the deal was that Ted would run one of Pentillie's farms and gradually take over the estate. However, when Jeffrey died unexpectedly in 1980, his widow, Kit withdrew from the world and banned Ted and his family from the castle. The news was devastating for Ted and Sarah. Over the next 27 years, their family grew up in the shadow of Pentillie, which remained out of bounds and became a subject too painful for discussion. But in September 2007 Kit died and left everything to Ted. Having been the cause of so much heartache, the Corytons planned to sell Pentillie and take the money, but when Ted, Sarah and their three grown up children gathered at the castle, they fell under its spell.
