Jules Hudson heads into the great British countryside and Ginny Buckley is bound for the coast as they discover how grand plans to escape to the country have panned out for two couples. Jules catches up with some outdoor adventure enthusiasts and their three huskies. They flew halfway around the world for some rural house-hunting in 2019 - and proceeded to buy the very first house Jules showed them! Ginny is reunited with life-long city dwellers who decided to take the plunge and fulfil their dream of living by the sea in West Sussex.
