Holiday Homes in the Sun: Season 1, Episode 2

1 - 2: Episode 2

In this episode, property expert Amanda Lamb, presenter and JLS star JB Gill, and DJ and presenter Sam Pinkham are in Mataró on the Costa del Maresme, just a short journey north from Barcelona, competing to find their favourite holiday rentals for a traditional Catalonian escape. When most people think of a Catalan holiday, their minds immediately jump to Barcelona or the Costa Brava. But our terrific trio head to Mataró to see four incredible traditional Catalan holiday homes. JB shows us a townhouse in the heart of town that's only a short jaunt from the beach. Sam brings a touch of the artistic with a unique home tucked away deep in the mountains above the Mediterranean. Amanda's choice aims to appeal to the inner child of JB and Sam with a house built for fun-filled, action-packed activities in the garden, but will the interior let it down? And then there's the mystery property, a casita in the heart of the Catalan countryside perfect for a romantic retreat. With four incredible, and incredibly different, properties to choose from, which will be crowned the favourite for a traditional Catalan escape?
