I Escaped to the Country

This episode is currently not available.

Series 6: 1. Welsh Borders



Jules Hudson reunites with house hunters who turned their backs on city life in London and Bristol to make a move to the Welsh Borders. First, Jules checks in with a couple who wasted no time in snapping up one of the houses they toured together in the autumn of 2020. He finds they have started to put their stamp on the fascinating property and have quickly established firm friends in their new neighbourhood. He then makes his way across the border to Monmouthshire, where a beautiful cottage with incredible unspoilt views of the Brecon Beacons is the treasured countryside home for a couple he first met in 2017.
