    Nice on the outside.

    A creche on the inside.

    While the bedroom is ikea-ish, I do think the country cottage feel of it suits the farmhouse.

    This is not my type of house.

    It's just a standard home with standard furniture......it's just a big house

    Eeek I was watching the news instead of switching over to DTTB

    Whats DTTB:confused:

    Caught this on +1.

    The right house won for sure! Wish they'd tell us where they are (house no 2 overlooking Bere Island so that's a clue)

    House no 1 was like the one last week - pretentiously crazy. Too contrived by far for my taste.

    House no 3 was just meh. Really didn't like the exterior, thought they were right about the need for contrast between old and new but just didn't work in this case IMO.

    House no 2 pretty much flawless, other than the bath in the bedroom. As much as she annoys me, had to agree with the girlie judge - I too "like a door"!! But that concrete wall - wow!

    The big fella needs to learn how to say modern - it's not modrin :mad:

    DTTB is Don't Tell the Bride :)

    Agree with most of this Heidi - but I have to say I love the bath in the bedroom.
    I stayed in a hotel that had the bathroom in a glass box in the bedroom (you could push bamboo screens over the glass) I loved it!

    Ah well now, that's different to having the bath actually IN the bedroom!

    (Maybe I'm a closet prude and I just haven't realised it until now :D )

    Its a poor mans version of the NI programme with Laurence Llewelin Bowen that goes out every two years or so.
    Their format is much better, with an architect assessing the exterior, a designer the interior and an estate agent the probable value.
    The RTE judges offer no critique apart from a few comments on 'not liking the furniture.' Abysmal production values from RTE again.

    Ah I think that is a bit harsh. I am enjoying it - I wish it was longer than a half an hour though.

    Me personally, I'd hate an estate agent being part of it.

    The NI one is House of the Year (if I'm not mistaken). With the emphasis on architecture.

    The RTE one is Home of the Year. With the emphasis more on interior design and poking around a few of the rooms.

    Subtle difference, but the resulting programmes are worlds apart.
