Summary
Pathe synopsis: Looking at this house which has all the style and atmosphere of a Spanish hacienda, it is difficult to believe that its setting is the London suburb of Hampstead. It is owned by an English couple who fell in love with Spain during visits to that country and as a result converted two garages into this beautiful home built in the Spanish style. On this occasion a group of Spanish artistes led by the famous dancer Pietro Torres adds gaiety and colour to this authentic atmosphere.
