True story! Tune in to Escape To The Country at 3:00pm on Monday 27th September 2021 and you'll be able to see inside The Old Pack Horse.
A labour of love... I've been renovating this former pub over the last few years so it's very exciting to see the house getting a few minutes of fame. Let's hope it's mostly good press.
As part of the renovation I've tried to make the interior as interesting as possible with lots of bespoke items created from light fittings through to clocks.
The presenter decided to do a featurette in the show on some of these items, lets see if it makes the final cut.
It was a pleasure to meet the Jules and the rest of the team, and with a shared interest in video production I even got to pick up a few tips along the way.
The Old Pack Horse will be the first house in the new series of Escape to the Country so tune in to find out more. I must admit I'm slightly nervous to know what the final opinion will be!
