Series 20

Alex Polizzi returns to answer the call of newbie hoteliers in the heart of Dartmoor National Park in Devon. Can Alex dig in and show Terry and Nikki how to bring in the money?

Alex heads to the Kent coast to help a seaside B&B battling against a tide of competition and no bookings. Westbrook Lodge is an 11-bedroom guesthouse in up-and-coming Margate, run by husband-and-wife team Tracy and Colin. After sinking nearly £200,000 of their life savings into the venture - despite not owning the building - they're simply not getting enough heads on beds to stay afloat.

In Arundel, West Sussex, Alex Polizzi meets husband-and-wife team Dave and Katie. They are hoping to turn a 500-year-old public house into a thriving gastropub with boutique accommodation. With opening day looming and no prior hospitality experience, plus three young children to care for, this could be the biggest gamble of their lives.

Alex Polizzi heads to rural Worcestershire where farmer Ian and his wife Emma are battling to save not just their 25-acre livestock business, but their way of life. With traditional farming no longer paying the bills, they've poured their savings into a back-to-nature glamping site called By the Red Phone Box. But their dream of a peaceful escape in the country is turning into a nightmare. Bookings have plummeted, their shepherd's hut is cramped and unappealing to families, and their marketing is falling flat. It's a race against the weather, the clock, and sheer exhaustion. Can Alex work her usual magic to turn things around, or has she finally met her match?

Alex Polizzi is off to Plymouth, where the owners of a sprawling holiday let and wannabe wedding venue have major problems. Just six weddings are booked all year, so bosses Neal and Tracey are concerned. Their dreams of transforming a decrepit property overlooking Plymouth Sound into St Anne's House, a detached, seven-bedroom rental with a pool, bar, hot tub, glamping units, into a nightmare. Alex attempts to work her magic once more.
