Some places hold within them dreams, hopes, and extraordinary stories – and in doing so, they fire the imagination and awaken a sense of wonder. These are remarkable sites: living landmarks or hidden gems, legendary homes and hotels. But no legend survives without the people who keep it alive.
This collection takes us to meet the passionate souls who inhabit these places, care for them, and work within their walls – owners, custodians, and craftspeople who contribute, day after day, to their preservation.
In each episode, we step through the doors of an exceptional residence to explore its history, while also venturing into the surrounding territory that forged it.
