1x12 - Bed & Breakfast by the Beach, Bournmouth
December 7, 2010
The competition moves to Bournemouth, where owners John and Chris welcome their guests to the Bed & Breakfast by the Beach.

1x13 - Lansbury, North Yorkshire
December 8, 2010
The owner of the Lansbury on the North Yorkshire coast competes.
