New Dutch reality dating shows debut with B&B owners and home renovators

The Dutch television programme B&B Vol Liefde begins its new season on Monday 20 July, featuring eight single B&B owners who travel to locations such as Spain, Aruba, Bonaire and France in search of romance. Participants include Caroline, who runs a small casita on the Costa del Sol, and Eline, who transformed a house on Aruba into a boutique B&B.

At the same time, Net5 launches the dating‑renovation series Wil je met me bouwen?, following 34‑year‑old Shannon from Waalwijk as she renovates her bathroom and bedroom. The format pairs her with single men who help with the construction while exploring the possibility of a relationship.
