A decade-long dream takes center stage in this week’s “A Place in the Sun,” as Sussex couple Marie and Peter finally embark on their quest for a Spanish holiday home near Mar Menor. Armed with a £65,000 budget and a shared vision nurtured over 10 years of coupledom, they’ve entrusted property expert Leah Charles-King to navigate the often-treacherous terrain of overseas property hunting.

Teaching assistant Marie and IT manager Peter clearly yearn for sunny skies and a tranquil escape. The question is: can Leah deliver? Finding a property that ticks all the boxes within their budget will be a challenge. Will they fall for a charming fixer-upper, or gravitate towards a move-in ready haven?

The Mar Menor area holds a particular allure for the couple, and the episode offers viewers a peek into the local property market. Whether any of the options presented will capture Marie and Peter’s hearts – and their hard-earned cash – is the central question. Will this be the start of their Spanish adventure, or just another chapter in their ongoing property saga?
