The adventurous sisters were searching for a holiday home for Jane and her family, ahead of her retirement.
However at one part of their search, viewers at home were left incredibly worried after noticing a 'death trap' as Ben took them to view a two-bedroom yellow house.
As he took the sisters to see the property, the trio were stood on a path opposite the front of the house.
However, the path was incredibly raised from the ground and had a huge drop to the road and the front of the home beneath it.

With no barriers or railings, one wrong step could prove to be a disaster.
Taking to Twitter, fans of the show were left shocked at the lack of health and safety and were stunned Ben took them up to view the property on the seemingly dangerous walkway.
One fan said: "Disaster awaits if you walk home bladdered on that pavement."
Another shocked fan exclaimed: "Jesus, that pavement's a deathtrap - 8ft drop off the side of it."

A third could not believe their eyes as they said: "That drop beside the path."
Although the sisters did not remark on the pavement, they were left less than impressed by the look of the 'small' house whilst Jane expressed serious concern that her husband's luxury sports car may not be suitable for the road around the home and could look out of place.
The pair did not waste any time as they quickly realised the home was not for them and were keen to carry on with the search elsewhere, leaving host Ben disappointed.
