Civil servants Michael and Jackie have both reached the end of their careers. Their children have grown up, and the couple are now looking to spread their own wings by moving to a location where they and their dog Jake can enjoy a much better lifestyle. With a budget of £230,000 for either a home or away property, can Jackie entice Michael with fond memories of the Lakes, or will the sun, sea and sand convince Jackie that Portugal is the best option of both of them?
