The programmes that try to find a home in the country do amaze me, they often want a huge house with at least four bedrooms somewhere very or at least fairly isolated, with a view. The reasons given almost always include that they want plenty of room so all their family and friends can go and visit and stay with them. They often also want lots of land also so they can keep goats, chickens, ducks, horses, etc. Coming from the city as many of them do, have they got the first idea how much work a large house, garden/land, and animals will take, not to mention never having a holiday again as the animals will tie them down. Leaving behind all their family and friends in the city means trying to make new friends in an isolated spot! Will the family and friends really want to travel to the farthest corner of Cornwall or wherever regularly, especially in winter?
