LOVE It or List It viewers have slammed a mum-of-five as 'miserable' and 'impossible to please' after she refused to consider moving house. Shaun and Sarah, who appeared on the latest episode of the Channel 4 show, gave viewers a close-up look inside their home, which has a vast array of issues.

Despite being just minutes from the beach and boasting an enviably designed interior, the parents share the tiny two-person kitchen with no room for a dishwasher and minuscule garden the 'size of a Dairylea slice'. Their £432,000 three-storey Victorian semi-detached house, which is located next to a commercial unit, on a 'busy' A-road in Whitley Bay, the UK's 'best' seaside town, also has a singular bathroom shared between seven.

Their suburban seaside abode was packed with problems that made managing family life with five children nearly impossible, which resulted in the couple having spent five years battling whether to keep their home or sell. Sarah and Shaun enlisted the help of property experts Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer, with a budget of £70,000 for renovations on their current home, or £650,000 to find a new one.

Sarah, who runs a reusable cloth nappy library, was firmly on team 'love it', insisting their current home had a “lovely family feel”. But viewers firmly disagreed with her decision and claimed they would have 'moved in a heartbeat' due to the lack of space for her large family.
