Description
Chrissie loves her life in London, but it's taken its toll. As an events manager, she's stressed and overworked, and her family is feeling the strain too. Her husband Rob has embarked on a year-long cycling adventure across Africa, leaving Chrissie to manage the household and care for their two daughters, Scarlet and Ruby. When Chrissie's mum calls to ask for help with the struggling family vineyard in Devon, Chrissie sees it as an opportunity to escape her stressful life. However, convincing her daughters to leave behind their fast-paced London lives won't be easy. Only one person is keen on making the move: Melina, their loyal lodger and cleaner, who's worried about Brexit and eager for a new adventure. As Chrissie adjusts to rural life, she discovers that it may take more than she bargained for to create a sense of home and family. This comedic tale explores the ups and downs of country living and the challenges of balancing work and family life.
