BBC Escape to the Country: Tragedy spurs couple to relocate to Wales but rundown bungalow leads to tears

Sometimes life can force you to evaluate the path you are on and encourage you to make a huge change. An unexpected tragedy within the family of couple Sue and Rich was a massive motivator for them to stop dreaming about a lifestyle and start making it happen.

Within the last two years, the Northamptonshire based couple had lost both of Sue's parents and then more tragedy struck. Rich says: "I lost my sister very suddenly and it just highlighted the fact that life's too short really to not be doing what you feel like you should be doing, so now is the time that we want to make the move and live the rest of our lives."

And the start of that journey was contacting Escape to the Country to help them explore their chosen region of Powys and hopefully find the couple the property, and crucially the land, of their dreams. To see the latest dream homes in Wales, subscribe to our newsletter here.
