８月の真夏日。父親が失踪したと知らされ、オクラホマにある実家へ集まった三姉妹。 真面目すぎて暴走しがちな長女バーバラと、反抗期の娘、実は別居中の夫。ひとり地元に残り秘密の恋をしている次女アイビー。自由奔放な三女カレンと、その不審な婚約者。彼らを迎えるのは、闘病中だが気が強く、率直で毒舌家の母バイオレットと、その妹家族。生活も思惑もバラバラな“家族たち”は、つい言わなくてもいい本音をぶつけあい、ありえない“隠しごと”の数々が明るみに―。

To The Manor Bowen follows Changing Rooms design guru Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and his wife Jackie, their two idiosyncratic kids, batty old grandma and their eccentric entourage to the heart of the English countryside in their quest to buy a grand new home. Jackie is tired of the London celebrity treadmill and is on a mission to get her family and staff to move to the country in search of the simple life. Laurence, a Londoner through and through, is less enthusiastic. But undeterred Jackie finds herself a run down 17th century manor house in the West Country and buys it. Luckily Laurence loves it too, and put his reputation, finances and family’s happiness on the line by moving everyone into this rundown rural ruin while they attempt to transform it into a magnificent family home. The beautifully surprising and refreshingly unpredictable Llewelyn-Bowens open their normally tightly-bolted celebrity doors to give us a peek at their unconventional and unruly family life.
