  1. Fantastic episode. Not one of my favorite - THE FAVORITE episode. Ruben and April are legends, well done for preserving our heritage - even down to fitting the roof tiles from Scotland - no compromise on design, quality of workmanship or materials. Excellent - good luck for the future and I can't wait to come home to Scotland and see this house.

  2. This is without doubt one of my very favourite episodes / homes. I love the dedication, patience and attention to detail that Ruben and April showed. It is such a beautful home. I particularly love the curved wall that was created. It is a work of art on its own. Thank you for sharing it with us.

  4. Reuben and April it would be good to be able to sight the inside complete. This was one of my favourite episodes. It a plus to see the owners doing the hard work. Very impressed by April doing the roof tiling as well as the repointing etc. good luck for the future.

  6. Hello, I'm wondering if Kevin ever goes back to visit Reuben and April. It's such a lovely house with such a promesing interior, wouldn't it be an adventure to se what those two created for the inside? Thanks for an exellent show! Good job April and Reuben! //Hoping for a revisit!
