Country House Rescue

ABC1 Adults  |  Features


Award-winning hotelier, restaurateur and businesswoman Ruth Watson presents this brand-new series taking viewers behind the closed doors of some of the UK's most exquisite private country houses. Under increasing financial pressure, and desperate to save their homes from property developers or foreign billionaires, the owners have called Ruth in to save their bacon.

Ruth attempts to turn their homes into viable and successful businesses while retaining the integrity and history of these unique properties. But can Ruth drag these landowners kicking and screaming into profit? She offers her advice on how each owner can secure their home's historical and financial future.

Visiting manors, castles and country estates in Surrey, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Cornwall, Ayrshire and Scottish Borders, Country House Rescue provides a unique insight into these beautiful homes, their very different owners and the individual challenges of running them.
