Unusual addition A Place in the Sun buyers couldn't live without

A Place in the Sun buyers were hoping to relocate to their forever home with an unusual addition.

Host Sara Damergi was on hand to help Jules and Gaynor, from Lincolnshire find their perfect home in France. Armed with a budget of £250,000, the couple wanted to relocate with their dog and beloved alpacas.

Sara was presented with a challenge during the episode, looking to find the couple's forever home in a rural area with plenty of land for the alpacas and a swimming pool. The first house however was met with mixed views as Jules said it was perfect for them, but deadly for the alpacas due to the plants.

Many fans took to social media amused with the alpacas addition as one person wrote: "Makes a change from finding a property for a dog!!" A second, unimpressed with the properties on offer, said: "Where is the field for the alpacas?"

One 11-acre property saw Gaynor in tears as she said it was "absolutely beautiful". But some fans remained unimpressed as one person wrote on Twitter: "This is more like ‘A place in the country’ than #aplaceinthesun."

Vanessa added: "So far I’m convinced they are still in the UK." Shrimpsy commented: "I know they want a bit of land to have some alpacas but come on, what they going to do with 11 acres."

But the property was a hit to some as Tina said: "I love this place! I’ll take it!!" Margo added: "This is a lovely house."

After successfully making an offer on their dream home, one fan said: "It’s now #alpacainthesun. Bonne chance!"
