With their three children now grown up, and their first grandchild on the way, they want to buy a second home in Denia, which they fell in love with on holiday. They have drafted in Danni Menzies to help them find their dream holiday home and have a budget of £160,000. Danni has lined up five great properties for them… but will any have them reaching for their cheque book?
