Escape to the Country is a hugely popular factual property series, hosted by an entertaining and informative mix of presenter talent. Each episode shines a light on a particular county or region of the UK and the presenter helps genuine house buyers who want to escape town or city living find their ideal home and achieve their ambition of enjoying a completely new country lifestyle in their chosen area.

Each episode, the buyers are taken on a journey of discovery as they tour three to four beautiful country properties, always ending with a 'mystery house' which challenges them to rethink their property wish list. Another playful format point is that the presenter only reveals the asking price of the country home at the end of each tour, after the buyers have tried to guess it themselves. Away from their house hunt, both presenter and buyers experience fascinating highlights of country life, from visits to iconic British landmarks and historic homes, to trying out traditional rural crafts for themselves.
