Have you ever dreamed of leaving the daily grind behind to run your own charming bed and breakfast under the French sun? Channel 4 and production company True North are making that dream a potential reality for one lucky British couple with their brand-new competition series, A New Life In The Sun: Win a BnB. This exciting 15-part show offers a truly life-altering prize: the keys to a stunning B&B property in France. Production is now actively seeking British couples ready to compete for this unique opportunity. If swapping your current routine for croissants, coffee, and paying guests sounds appealing, this could be your chance.
The series format is designed to put potential B&B owners through their paces. Over two initial weeks of heats, competing couples will be thrown into the deep end, tasked with managing real French B&Bs and looking after genuine guests. Their abilities will be tested across various challenges focusing on essential skills like hospitality, culinary flair, and business sense.
It’s not just about making beds; it’s about creating a welcoming experience and running a viable business. Performance will be judged based on feedback from the guests they host, combined with assessments from an expert B&B inspector and valuable input from someone who has successfully set up their own hospitality business abroad, previously featured on A New Life in the Sun.
As the competition progresses, the field will narrow, with four couples ultimately making it through to the final week. During this crucial stage, each remaining pair will take turns running the actual prize B&B – the very property one of them will win. This provides a taste of the life that awaits the winners, all while soaking up the French atmosphere.
True North is currently inviting applications from enthusiastic British couples eager to take part in this adventure. If you and your partner believe you have what it takes to impress the judges and guests, and you’re ready for a change, you are encouraged to apply. More details about the show and the application process can be found online via casting company CAST IT REACH.
A New Life In The Sun: Win a BnB builds on the enduring popularity of its parent show, A New Life In The Sun, known for its sunny escapism and relatable stories of Brits starting anew overseas. Don’t miss the chance to potentially trade your current life for the keys to your own French B&B.
