The hosts try to sweeten their guests with an afternoon making luxury chocolates, followed by dinner in the hotel's onsite Thai restaurant. It looks like things could be on the up after Mike and Amanda agree to join everyone for dinner. However, in the morning, Mike and Amanda refuse to return to the hotel for breakfast, declaring 'If the room's not up to standard, the breakfast won't be either'. The feedback forms leave Del and Roy seeing red, having discovered more criticism than compliments, including Mike and Amanda saying that they wouldn't stay again.

But while they try to rustle sheep, tensions simmer when Irene berates Amanda about her refusal to stay at Del and Roy's on the last visit. The next morning, when Amanda moans about a bad night's sleep, tensions boil over, erupting into a row at breakfast. Thankfully for the hosts, despite the atmosphere, their Welsh breakfast hits the right note.

S3 E49 • Wold View House, Lincolnshire

It's the final visit of the competition, and Irene Ward-Kendall's Wold View House in Lincolnshire provides a homely welcome for most, but for Amanda and Mike Daly, it is not up to their usual military high standards. After coming to blows with Irene during their last stay, they are on a fault-finding mission and are immediately unimpressed. Irene tries to wow her guests with a trip to the Lincolnshire Wold Railway, and as the group ride through the countryside on a steam train, everyone's in high spirits until Irene makes a joke at Amanda's expense. Over a home-cooked dinner, Irene's unique presentation of the food divides opinions, prompting Amanda to declare she 'Wouldn't even feed it to her dog'. At the feedback, Irene is left fuming by Mike and Amanda's comments, saying 'They need to get a life.'.
