Country House Rescue

Channel 4

Thursday June 14, 8pm

ENTREPRENEUR, Simon Davis, takes the reigns for the fourth series of Country House Rescue, which sees six stately home owners seek his advice as to how to maintain their unique properties for generations to come.

Davis, who describes his passion for Britain’s stately homes as “unbridled”, explains that these historic buildings are best served by staying in the hands of their original owners and being made to work for a living.

The first episode of the new series sees Simon struggling to persuade the Viscount and Viscountess Brookeborough to open their crumbling home to strangers in order to save Colebrooke Park, a neoclassical mansion in Northern Ireland.
