Mark and Peter have been holidaying on Gran Canaria for decades and love it so much that they call it their dream island. To make their dream complete, they want to buy their own property near their favourite resort of Maspalomas to enjoy getaways with their families and cockapoo, Rosie. Danni Menzies lines up five options for their £80,000 budget that she thinks will really meet the couple's needs.

Jean Johansson helps Julie and Derek look for their dream home in Tarbes at the foothills of the Pyrenees in southern France. The couple are looking for a two-bedroom house with the `shabby-chic" style they love and a good amount of land for Julie to start an alpaca walking business on a budget of £130,000.
