TV presenter Sarah Beeny is set to bring viewers on a new adventure in Somerset with the second series of New Life In The Country.
The Channel 4 property series saw property expert Sarah, 49, and her family swap the busy London life for a brand new start in the Somerset countryside.
First airing in 2020, Sarah, her husband Graham, and their four children set about to refurbish a semi-derelict former dairy farm and transform it into the modern home of their dreams.
Of course, building a new home from a 220-acre site isn’t always straightforward, and the eight-episode series saw the family try glamping, look after four alpacas, learn how to keep bees, and deal with the stress of planning permission and unhappy locals.
In the final episode of the series, Sarah and Graham were just finishing the first stage of building their new home, so it was a given that New Life In The Country would return for a second series.
With the second series airing tonight and audiences getting a glimpse into Sarah’s life, viewers want to know more.
