Transcript

00:00Three, two, one, go!

00:05Four sets of holiday hosts.

00:07That is definitely a wealth factor, isn't it?

00:10Check in to each other's places.

00:12Hi! Welcome to the White Lion.

00:14And check out one another.

00:16Don't forget your swimsuits.

00:18Roger and a mankini, well, I wouldn't recommend it.

00:21I think that's four, five a day's ordinary, I think.

00:24Today, there's trouble in the air.

00:26Oh, no, that smells.

00:28As they battle.

00:29You don't know what people's reaction's going to be to our comments.

00:33To be named best value for money.

00:35I don't think that answer at all is justified.

00:44The final visit of the week is to Tedstone Delamere in Herefordshire

00:48and Tedstone Log Cabins,

00:50owned by married couple Sue and Roger Benbow,

00:54the definition of wedded bliss.

00:56People have said we've got the perfect marriage,

00:58but I don't know, no marriage is perfect.

01:00But we feel we're very lucky because we've been married 30 years now

01:03and don't quite like each other.

01:07At times.

01:07Guests looking for the perfect match can pick from one of three self-catered log cabins

01:15for up to £282 per night, including a small welcome pack based on a two-night minimum

01:21and have a stay that's one of a kind.

01:24We wanted to do something different to everyone else.

01:27They are bespoke log cabins, handmade by Tom, our neighbour.

01:31I think what makes them unique is the craftsmanship.

01:35And the pair are confident their on-site riding school makes it a thoroughbred location.

01:40The beauty of our place is you've got the riding school so close to it,

01:45so you have the opportunity you could go riding.

01:48You just don't get that just anywhere, do you?

01:50Today's first guests are about to arrive and are bunking up.

01:54I'm used to show in my bed with two dogs.

01:57I've actually got a bit more room.

01:59I fully thought you were a friend to me as a dog.

02:00Oh, no.

02:02In the doghouse are Connor Keddy and Grace Knowles

02:06of the White Lion Western in Western Cheshire.

02:09Over drinks on the last visit, Sue dished out details.

02:13Our property is very bespoke.

02:17It is self-checking.

02:18And it is self-catering, but we do leave a little welcome basket for you.

02:23So today, Connor and Grace are cooking up opinions.

02:27We're the only ones that haven't got self-checking and self-catering.

02:31Yeah.

02:31I feel a bit cheated that we haven't had breakfast made for us.

02:37Yeah.

02:37I think self-checking is a slight cop-out.

02:40We have a message.

02:42You'll stay at Headstone Log Cabins.

02:45That sounds quite nice.

02:45Log Cabins.

02:46You will be staying in Rowan, which costs £275 per night,

02:52based on a two-night minimum stay.

02:54The key can be found in the key safe to the left of the door,

02:56and they've got the code as well.

02:58It's a great view, isn't it?

03:00Yeah.

03:00It's gorgeous.

03:01Oh, now, this is adorable, isn't it?

03:05Oh, wow.

03:05Hot tub.

03:06Little outdoor seating area, got all the bench and everything.

03:10That was easy enough.

03:13Oh, it's nice and warm.

03:15It's definitely giving me wood.

03:17With Connor and Grace branching out,

03:22today's next guests are comedy genii.

03:24Not everyone finds my jokes as funny as me,

03:27which can be a little bit awkward sometimes.

03:31Like that one.

03:36Good for a giggle are Laura Mews and Claudia Pardo

03:39of Foxlow Grange in Buxton, Derbyshire.

03:43Earlier this week, during a quiz about farming,

03:46Roger was sheepish.

03:48I'm a bit of a sheep farmer, and if I get it wrong,

03:50he's going to make me look really bad.

03:53So today, no-one's pulling the wool over Laura and Claudia's eyes.

03:58I've got high expectations for the place.

04:00I'm feeling like it's going to be rural, animal-related farms,

04:05stables, barn.

04:07Oh, we've got a text coming.

04:09Your stay at Willow Tedstone Log Cabins.

04:13Oh!

04:13The price is £282 per night.

04:17I'm excited about this stair.

04:20Oh, this looks lovely.

04:21Really nice views, aren't they?

04:23Ponies!

04:24I like this.

04:24It looks really nice.

04:28Oh, this is cosy.

04:29I like that it's very rustic, with a hint of luxury.

04:34With Laura and Claudia knocking on wood, the next guests are enjoying some me time.

04:39It'd be actually quite rejuvenating to go away without the kids or the husbands.

04:44It's quite nice, actually.

04:45It's been different, hasn't it?

04:46Oh, my God.

04:48Singled out, our friends Airlis Owen and Demelza Fish Jenkins, of Cumyar Holiday Cottages in

04:54Clanclooney, Carmarthenshire.

04:56When they hosted last time...

04:58Cosy.

04:59This is nice.

05:00...the guests were caught in a web.

05:01That looks like a well-established cobweb up there.

05:05It's like Halloween on steroids.

05:07I like the rustic beams, however, quite a lot of cobwebs.

05:10And come feedback...

05:11How clean was Cumyar Holiday Cottages?

05:14They spun a tale.

05:16And I think a six.

05:17I think I'd be happy with a six.

05:19I think it's going to have to be a five.

05:21Five.

05:21Oh, I'm disappointed with that, I must say.

05:25But today, Airlis and Demelza are dusting themselves off.

05:28The biggest issue I felt a bit disappointed was the cleanliness.

05:33That's an issue I will bring up on payment day.

05:36But, you know, I'm not going to change my way of judging, because, you know...

05:40It's not fair on Cumyar Holiday if we do that.

05:43I've got the check-in message.

05:45Your stay at Tedstone Log Cabins.

05:48The cost of your stay is £275 per night.

05:53Right, come on then, off we go.

05:55Let's see what we've got here.

05:56I like it.

05:58I can see there's a lot of time and effort gone into this.

06:01With the hosts out of the way,

06:03the guests leave no stone unturned at Tedstone.

06:07That's a good bed.

06:10Oh, I like this.

06:11It is quite spacious.

06:13Everything is bespoke.

06:14The handles are bespoke.

06:18I think the sofa's well-placed.

06:20It means that I can enjoy the view while you're watching the football.

06:23Do you know what I really like?

06:24Is they've even thought about the doorstop.

06:26And it's the same wood as the building.

06:28The attention to detail.

06:29Yeah.

06:30Oh, wow.

06:31This is different.

06:32This is lovely.

06:34I've never seen something like this.

06:36They've all got pillow protectors, so that's good.

06:38Yep.

06:38There's a pillow underneath, nice and clean as well.

06:40It's just a shame there's lead there.

06:42It just looks untidy down to the bottom.

06:44Yeah.

06:46Not a speck in sight.

06:48Nice bedding.

06:50Bathroom looks pretty immaculate.

06:52Nice and clean up there.

06:54Very clean, to be honest.

06:56It's not easy to keep an oven clean in a holiday.

07:01It's annoyingly clean.

07:03That's clean.

07:04It's super clean.

07:05It's faultless.

07:06If I wanted it to cook, I'm a bit ashamed that it's only two.

07:10For me, it's not quite adequate.

07:12Yeah, let's see how we get on in the morning.

07:15Bit dusty.

07:16Yeah.

07:16I think Roger needs to get his feather dust around.

07:19Rum inspection's almost over.

07:20Eilis and Demelza are contemplating the charge.

07:24You've just got two rooms for £275.

07:27Can't bring any friends with you.

07:29No.

07:29It's lovely, but it's very steep in pricing, I would say.

07:32Yeah.

07:33Laura and Claudia are tooled up.

07:35Ooh, it's a spatula scenario.

07:37Could fry an egg with that.

07:40While Connor and Grace are blending in.

07:42Do you think Roger will have me in his flock?

07:44In the 14th century, children in Herefordshire were baptised in cider,

07:59on the grounds that it was cleaner than most water.

08:02And today, hosts Sue and Roger want their guests to drink in an afternoon at their riding school.

08:07We're going horse riding.

08:10Yay!

08:11I'm just devastated I've taken my riding hat out of the car.

08:14As the guests arrive at the paddock...

08:17Hiya!

08:17Hello, you guys!

08:18Hello, everyone!

08:19..the hosts are on hand to greet them, alongside daughter Isabel.

08:23We've run a riding school business here since 1990.

08:27And we're a really busy riding school.

08:29We have about 80 riders come each week.

08:32All ages, all abilities, from sort of like four-year-olds to, I think our eldest is 79.

08:38Wow.

08:39So you'll be all OK to ride.

08:43And while Roger and Isabel show the group how it's done...

08:46Yay!

08:48Come on, Roger!

08:50Come on!

08:51Woo!

08:54It seems for last visits, hosts, when it comes to feedback, there's no hurdle to overcome.

09:00This is the first time we've seen Alison DeMalta since we gave feedback about their property.

09:06I think they've been all right.

09:07I don't think there's been any difference in...

09:09No, I don't want to take.

09:10..at all.

09:11Since the feedback, everything's been good atmosphere, yeah.

09:15If you start taking it personally, then you're not in the right job.

09:19With feedback nae problem, the hosts show the guests how to groom the Gigi's.

09:25And then you come to this shoulder here.

09:27Give them a really hard brush like that.

09:29And while Eilis and Demelza brush up...

09:32Good boy!

09:32..the rest of the group get educated on the school.

09:35So the guests that come and stay with you, do a lot of them get involved with the riding school staff as well?

09:39We do have a few come round, and most of them love seeing the horses in the field below them.

09:44They think that's lovely.

09:45So I started riding when I was about three, and then got my own pony when I was 11.

09:49I had the best childhood, having a pony.

09:52Yeah, full circle now.

09:54My daughter's into ponies.

09:56Sue told us that they do have guests here that come and enjoy the facilities and the riding school.

10:01I'd be interested to know whether she has families come here as well, or if it's just purely adults only.

10:07Questions raised, the group saddle up and take their horses out on the country lanes, led by their hosts.

10:13And after Laura and Claudia trot on...

10:16What's my horsey called?

10:18Buck.

10:18You're on Mack.

10:20Mack and Buck.

10:21Grace and Connor take the reins.

10:23Yeah.

10:23Go on, Gracie!

10:25Come on, Grace!

10:26Yes!

10:29Never been on a horse, just on a carousel.

10:32How are you feeling up there, Grace?

10:33Yeah.

10:33They look sort of big and scary, and then when you're on one, you just feel quite powerful.

10:39First time for everything.

10:40I didn't think I was going to like it, but I ended up really enjoying it.

10:43So thanks, Sue and Roger, for letting us ride our horses, really.

10:46With horsing around coming to an end, the hosts are galloping ahead.

10:50Had a good afternoon so far.

10:53Hopefully, after feedback, I won't be a stroppy mare.

10:56Oh, I don't know about that.

10:57The final visit of the week is to Tedstone Delamere in Herefordshire and Tedstone Log Cabins.

11:11Hello!

11:12Hi there!

11:13Where tonight, hosts Sue and Roger have invited their guests to warm their cockles around the campfire.

11:19Cheers to us!

11:20Cheers!

11:21Glass is raised, Grace wants the lowdown.

11:24So, Roger, Sue, tell us, what's the story of the cabins?

11:27I had some money to invest.

11:29We just thought, perhaps we should start doing a holiday let, but we wanted to do something a little bit different.

11:35So, a neighbour of ours, who is a tree surgeon, he built one for himself, just a small one,

11:40and we were thinking, perhaps Tom could build us one.

11:43So, Tom built these three log cabins, just with a chainsaw, all by hand.

11:49The detail inside of them log cabins is next level.

11:53The handles are incredible.

11:54They did cost me a lot of money.

11:57I think it's clear that a lot of love and passion has gone into the log cabins themselves.

12:02Annoyingly, this is definitely a contender.

12:05It's just self-checking, self-catering.

12:07We like that welcome when we walk through the door.

12:09I think, is this one bedroom in all of these then?

12:12Was that a conscious decision?

12:13When we put them in, we put sofa beds in there, all of them, and then we thought, actually, we only want couples.

12:19It just suits us.

12:20So, you're saying this is adults only, so if I came with my husband and two children, my husband couldn't stay in one lodge with a child and I couldn't stay in another?

12:27Is it adults only?

12:28We try to keep it as adults only because the idea is that it's peaceful.

12:32So, what about groups of girls?

12:34That would be fine.

12:35We tend to go away as a family and we do everything as a family.

12:39It's a shame that they've narrowed their market, to be honest.

12:42We did originally think, perhaps, yes, we would have families because of the riding being a draw.

12:47But our business plan changed.

12:49I'm hoping they won't underpay us because what they've got is not just a place to stay in, it's an experience.

12:57Group Not Kidding Around, the chat gets serious.

13:00I've really enjoyed spending this week with you all.

13:02Absolutely.

13:03It's been great going to visit all these three different properties to mine.

13:08So, has anyone here found a nice little spot on their wall for the plaque?

13:13Ours is going to go right above the bed that you two slept on.

13:17Well, we're all getting on really now, but when the paints will come out, who knows?

13:22It could change.

13:24Hopefully, we'll still go home, friends.

13:26Drink's done.

13:27It's back to the cabins, where later that evening, some of the guests take the plunge.

13:33Making memories, one clink at a time.

13:35Cheers.

13:37I feel very lonely.

13:39Oh, kind of hit.

13:42See you in the morning.

13:44OK, good night.

13:45Ta-da, buddy.

13:46Ta-da.

13:47The sun is up in Herefordshire.

13:51How did you sleep last night?

13:53Yeah, very good and very nice and very cosy.

13:55The linen was really nice, really soft.

13:58I slept OK.

13:59I quite liked the mattress and the pillows.

14:01They suited me.

14:03The only thing I thought is I was really itchy.

14:06I had to get out of bed and actually put cream on my legs, because they were itching that much.

14:09At Tedstone Log Cabins, it's down to the guests to cook up a storm.

14:14But Sue and Roger don't see clouds on the horizon.

14:17I think we have provided everything they need to cook a really delicious breakfast.

14:22We do provide a welcome pack, which includes some eggs, some bread, butter and milk.

14:27So I think they shouldn't have a problem.

14:29This morning, the guests will be adding their own ingredients.

14:33But first, they pick apart the packs.

14:36Got some nice fresh eggs in there from the farm.

14:39Scrambled egg on toast, it is.

14:41This is a lovely church.

14:42I do like this.

14:44Milk in an old-fashioned bottle.

14:46Yeah.

14:47That's really nice.

14:48Would have been nice to have some bread with it, but obviously with the date scribbled out,

14:52I don't know if I trust it.

14:54Yeah, it's not for me, that.

14:55Next, the group sussed the set up.

14:57Some scales in there if you wanted to make a cake.

14:59Nice.

15:00That's quite handy.

15:00I think we have everything that we need to make breakfast with it.

15:03There's oven trays and things like that.

15:06I wouldn't take this as acceptable.

15:08I've thrown better those away.

15:10I've got to be honest, so have I.

15:12Because this is the high end of the market, I would have expected better.

15:16Kitchen's considered.

15:18The guests get cracking with the cooking.

15:20Do you know what's really nice?

15:21The seeds go all the way through.

15:23They're not just sprinkled on the top.

15:25Yeah, that one's a bit funny coloured.

15:28Oh, I know that smells.

15:30Give that away.

15:33No.

15:34I'm a bit disappointed.

15:35The eggs were rotten.

15:36Maybe we just got unlucky with the eggs.

15:38Definitely.

15:40The injection hob's too small.

15:42I could end with four.

15:43What I'll do, I'll do my toast and then I'll...

15:45You have your food.

15:46I'll go to home and then I'll wait, OK?

15:47Oh, sorry, Liz.

15:48I don't like eating on my own.

15:50Cooking breakfast this morning was a very confined space.

15:53It was only a kitchen for one person to cook.

15:56You had to eat yours.

15:58In shift one and you ate yours in shift two?

16:00Yeah.

16:00With the rest of the food ready, the guests dig in.

16:03Oh, yeah.

16:05Can't beat free-range eggs, can you?

16:07Never.

16:07No, it's a lovely touch.

16:08The bread is probably the best gluten-free bread I've ever had.

16:12It's a cracking breakfast.

16:13Oh.

16:14But it's tomorrow's showdown they're sinking their teeth into.

16:18I'd like to think we could win.

16:19We have a good quality business and a good quality space.

16:23I'm feeling a little bit nervous about payment day.

16:25Obviously, you don't know what people's reaction's going to be to our comments,

16:30and I hope it's taken in the way that it's given, that it's constructive.

16:33It depends, at the end of the day, what is value for money.

16:37I think it's anyone's game.

16:40Breakfast done.

16:41The guests complete their anonymous feedback forms.

16:44How were your hosts at Ted Stone Log Cabins?

16:47Wonderful hosts and beautiful horses, but it's self-checking.

16:50And we prefer a personal welcome.

16:53Nine.

16:54How clean was Ted Stone Log Cabins?

16:57We'll just put faultless.

16:58Yep.

16:59Ten.

17:00Ten.

17:01Annoyingly super clean.

17:03There was minor dust.

17:05A solid nine.

17:06How were the facilities?

17:08Lovely and bespoke woodwork.

17:10I could say the kitchens of good quality.

17:12But impractical.

17:13Impractical, that's what you want to do, yeah.

17:16And also, shame, unfinished work in corner of the bathroom.

17:19I think we'd like to score an eight then.

17:21When you first walk through the door here, the attention to detail is incredible.

17:26It is attached to the riding school, which is a massive draw for me to come with my family.

17:31And these cabins are not set up for the family environment.

17:34They're set for couples.

17:34Facilities lend themselves to a family stay.

17:37So what should I give them?

17:38Nine.

17:39Now then, Alice, how did you sleep?

17:41Very comfortable bed.

17:42I had a lovely night's sleep.

17:44I would rate it at ten.

17:46Incredibly comfortable bed, but the itchy bedding, that's a bit of an issue.

17:51I would give a nine.

17:52Yep.

17:53How was breakfast?

17:54So the kitchen itself is very well stocked.

17:57Eggs provided were off.

18:00And the bread had its best before date crossed off.

18:03A six for me for breakfast.

18:05Only two hobs and cooker and eight in two sittings.

18:08Baking trays were dirty stained.

18:10Needed as replacing.

18:11I would definitely score this on a six.

18:13Final big question.

18:15Would you stay here again?

18:16Yeah.

18:17No, I'd stay again.

18:18Yeah.

18:18I wouldn't be able to come here with my family.

18:20For me, it's a no.

18:21And it's a no from me too.

18:22After weighing it up, I definitely think it's a no.

18:29Now the guests must pay what they think their stay was worth.

18:32Agreed?

18:33Agreed.

18:33The cash will be kept secret until the end of the competition.

18:37But for now, Sue and Roger can see what comes out of the woodwork at Tedstone Log Cabins.

18:43OK, let's see what they think.

18:45Here we go.

18:46How were your hosts at Tedstone Log Cabins?

18:49Nine.

18:50Very happy with that.

18:51Wonderful hosts and beautiful horses.

18:54That's nice to know.

18:55Yeah.

18:56We prefer a personal welcome.

18:58Well, we have to make it work with all our other businesses.

19:00How clean was Tedstone Log Cabins?

19:04And nine.

19:06Annoyingly super clean.

19:09Sorry to be annoying.

19:12Minor dust.

19:13How did you miss that?

19:14Well, I'm happy with that's all they found.

19:16How was your breakfast?

19:18Six.

19:19Oh, that's a bit concerning.

19:20Well-stocked kitchen overall.

19:22That's good news.

19:23Yeah, that's good.

19:24Eggs provided were off.

19:25They shouldn't be off because they're very fresh from our own hens.

19:29Yeah.

19:29Best before date on bread crossed out.

19:32I get it from the bakery and I put it in the freezer.

19:36So, obviously, if I'd left the old date, it would appear to be out of date.

19:41I think they possibly will stay again.

19:44Yes!

19:45Yeah, that's good.

19:46They would.

19:46I'm really pleased with that.

19:48Off to a good start.

19:49Let's see how the next one's Marcus.

19:51How clean was Tedstone Log Cabins?

19:55A ten.

19:56Well, that's brilliant.

19:57Faultless.

19:58I am absolutely delighted with that.

20:00How were the facilities?

20:02Nine.

20:03Nine.

20:03That's good.

20:04Another good high school.

20:05Attention to detail.

20:07Incredible.

20:08I have spent a lot of time, many hours, to get it just so it's just right.

20:13Facilities lend themselves to family stay.

20:17So, I think this is Laura and Claudia.

20:20We've made the decision to just stick to couples.

20:22So, it's really quiet and it's a romantic stay, we feel.

20:27How did you sleep?

20:29A nine.

20:30Happy with that?

20:31Comfy bed.

20:32Happy with that.

20:32Yeah, I'm really pleased with that.

20:34Itchy bedding.

20:36Never had anybody say that before, but maybe that's something we need to look at.

20:40Do you think they'll want to stay again?

20:42With those schools, I think they will.

20:45No!

20:47Oh, that's going to be interesting on payment day.

20:52And let's see what's installed next.

20:55How were your facilities?

20:57It's called an eight.

20:58Okay.

20:59Lovely and bespoke woodwork.

21:01That's what it is, isn't it?

21:02Yeah, absolutely.

21:03Kitchen, good quality, but impractical.

21:07We've certainly not had a comment like that before, have we?

21:10No, we haven't.

21:11Shame, unfinished work in corner of bathroom.

21:15It is finished, but we couldn't finish it any other way.

21:18How did you sleep?

21:20Ten.

21:20That's good.

21:21That's brilliant.

21:22Very comfortable bed and had a lovely night's sleep.

21:27Good.

21:27All you can ask for.

21:28How was breakfast?

21:30A six.

21:31A bit disappointing.

21:32Only two hobs on cooker and eight in two sitting.

21:37I definitely think the amount of stuff that we've provided is enough to cook a decent breakfast easily.

21:42Baking trays, dirty, stained, needed replacing.

21:46They are clean.

21:47I do think they've been a bit nitpicky there.

21:49Here we go.

21:52Would you stay here again?

21:53No.

21:54No.

21:55Interesting.

21:58So based on what they've said, I don't think that answer at all is justified.

22:02Some of the scores are being a bit low and they'd be interesting on payment day to fight them out.

22:08Next time the hosts face the final showdown.

22:14Welcome to the Lions then.

22:16As bills are paid.

22:17Because it was expensive for two people.

22:20I just think you judge quite hard.

22:23Scores are settled.

22:24Literally.

22:24You've got resident spiders.

22:27And a winner announced.

22:28The winner is...

22:30Am I annoyed?

22:31A thousand percent.

22:32And then...
