I Escaped to the Country

Series 10: 2. East Devon and Suffolk

It’s back to beautiful Devon as Nicki Chapman reunites with two rural-rookie, retired police officers she first met in 2024. Nicki struck gold with the very first property she showed them, a delightful 18th-century cottage that instantly felt like home. Now happily settled in the Devon countryside, they take Nicki to try her hand at their new favourite pastime, short mat bowls... with some mixed results!\n\nJules Hudson goes back to Suffolk to revisit a couple who now call a fabulous 18th-century converted barn home. One year on, the place is still revealing surprising quirks and hidden treasures. Jules dives into their ambitious new project, creating a vast wildlife pond. Or, as he quickly wonders, will it be a lake?
