In one of the brocantes, Terry is in he’s very own Aladdins cave, filled with beautiful old items, but has to work he’s way through the cobwebs to find the antiques.

About us,
We are a family from the North-East of England following our dream to restore a beautiful abandoned french Château. We discovered the heart stopping Château De Lalacelle in summer of 2020, this beautiful architectural monument Is set in the countryside of North-West France.
The moment we visited the Château we all fell in love, from the beautiful sweeping landscape and forests, to its stunning untouched interiors and magnificent spiral staircase in the turret.
Unfortunately Château De Lalacelle has been abandoned for a number of decades so will need a lot of restoration and DIY.
Please subscribe and follow our families journey, with the up’s and down’s in moving from the UK to rural France and restoring this beautiful building to its former glory.

Great buys! Please consider not painting the hat stand! It’s glorious as is. It would be a shame to paint it. I also vote for Mom’s outdoor light to be black. So enjoy your banter and love for each other. Love from sunny and very humid Sydney! ❤️

[@AtlantaGarden]

People keep calling it a "hat stand" but I have always known these more elaborate pieces as a "hall tree."

[@jamesmurray5249]

Thank you for taking us shopping . Seeing all those lovely things and Anne not being able to spend my money .....great .It's nice that you all keep us updated on your progress ,you make us feel part of your journey .thanks .

[@kittye850]

Would’ve loved to see the ornate square sconces from the first place clean and operable! They looked amazing! Cant wait to see the chandelier up and the hat stand in place! Good purchases!

[@suehall3298]

Love the coat rack hope you do not paint it 🤔 Put it on plinth high enough to put shoes under it will also hide the top of the hole. Love the lights 🤗🤗 Love Sue ❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤

[@mdaly23md]

For the hat stand, why not put different feet on it? And install the screw feet on them to level it? Instead of installing a top piece. The floor looks a little uneven based on the wall/door it’s in front of. Lovely piece btw.

[@wernerdanler2742]

When you said 95€ for the mirror, I thought grab it quick. But then Ash said 950. What a disappointment. The chandelier is nice though. Productive day.

[@juliatownsend4690]

Love the hat stand.

[@juliehare3403]

What you are calling a hat stand is actually called a Hall Tree. It is meant to make a statement as you walk in the door, thus the beautiful wood carvings and details! Please, please, PLEASE do not paint it! It's absolutely perfect for the space just the way it is, though I give another vote to swap out the feet and make it taller. That chandelier is fabulous! Very cute brass umbrella stand too! I also vote on painting the lantern black...it will look fabulous against the stone of the cottage!

[@barbaragoss6177]

Totally agree re painting, leave it as original!

[@susiem8969]

Don’t paint it, for goodness sake!🙏

[@KT_37]

I would keep the hat stand as it is finished. I think it will pop against the painted paneling and just look like you are showcasing the hat stand vs trying to hide missing paneling. I would also suggest though changing out the feet. I would raise it up so the bottom is even with the top of of the baseboard. This will move it up just enough to hide the top of the old door cutout. I very much doubt anyone would even notice a feet swap either

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very much, yes I think I will be keeping it wood 🥰

[@maryjomoore321]

All the wood needs not be finished alike

[@maxwellcolfax4933]

Such wonderful finds! I agree with Ash. It would be a travesty to cover the beautiful wood of the hat stand with paint. I enjoy your brocante trips out.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very much 🥰

[@dougr.2245]

You did very well with your beautiful hat stand, that just fits the spot you want to cover. I hope you don't gild it. Gilding the lily is a mistake. When a piece is perfect & original changing it with gilding detracts from it rather than adding anything. The chandelier will e better in a bedroom. When you put the glass shades on I think you'll see that it would have been too big for any bathroom. It is a handsome piece. For Mom's outdoor light I vote for black. Anything else for a traditional outdoor lantern like that at a chateau would be going against tradition & just wouldn't look right. You bought very beautiful useful pieces.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very much 🙏🥰

[@ruthlee2752]

Love the coat rack you got to fill the whole in the panelling in the hall. If you build it up on the bottom it will be perfect.. My vote is not to paint it so it will be a statement piece.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very much 🥰

[@deirdregahansuttle5698]

Bottom rail is for umbrellas. Beautiful coat stand.

[@cherylholasek2193]

Don’t you dare paint that piece. It’s beautiful just the way it is. Love the videos. 😊😊

[@karenbrindley7170]

Hello all! Things are coming together. I love the little chats at the end where you reflect on the week behind and the week ahead.

[@normamurray4450]

Thank you so much for taking us along on your Brocante shopping trips....love it all! Great purchases!! You are a great couple....really nice guys!!!

[@pamkullman8839]

I can't believe it is only episode 35! Seems like it has been so many more! I want to go brocanting in France after watching everyone! I absolutely love the lamp for Tracy!

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very, it is great to have so many wonderful shops, but can be frustrating when you know what you want and can not find it if or do find it and is far to expensive 😞🥰🥰

[@wrinklesandsprinkles]

Ash & Terry are such a great couple. Ash gets frustrated by Terry’s ability to minimize the amount of time something takes or the distance it takes to just “pop over” somewhere.! But he loves him just the same.😂 I adore the playfulness you have with each other. The treasures you guys picked up are wonderful, especially the chandelier. That was a score!! To bad that brocante didn’t organize and clean up a bit. One could really see what offerings were available. It looked like he had some interesting bits, but one couldn’t get to them. Hugs to all from America 🇺🇸

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very much 🥰 yes it could do with a little tied but I enjoyed looking through it all 😮❤️

[@moiragoldsmith7052]

The Hat Stand is a joy! I hope you change your mind re painting it. Have a good week. x

[@Sami-bv5wo]

Terry and Ash, you are great shoppers of bargain antiques. We can't wait to see all your treasures come to life. We loved watching the discussion, of the 4 of you, on the steps. Light & Love from our family to yours

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very much 🙏🥰

[@susiem8969]

Don’t paint that sensational hall stand! Please leave it as it is! It’s perfect!

[@brandispry576]

The hat stand is absolutely stunning! I wish you didn’t have to paint it but I understand you have to make all of the decor cohesive to the chateau.

[@brandispry576]

Ash holding Patrick in his lap was so cute! He looked like a little rocket ship 🚀 about to take off🤣 He even closed his eyes and basked in the sunlight ☀️ He’s so cute!!!

[@donnafink6262]

It was so fun to go with you two window shopping! The Hall piece and light fixture are lovely. Things are coming along so nicely. Take care.

[@sus8e462]

Please don't paint the hat stand until you've lived with it in place for a while (after the wall it's against is done, too)!! What a fun place you found it--loved the painted glass against the wall--but place need gloves & time to find what treasures are in all of those boxes!

[@janeblandford852]

You got some beautiful pieces....well done! Can't wait to see where they end up. I agree Tony...the detail work takes the time, it feel like things are going slow but really, it is the polish before the paint. Well done and look forward the the next video!

[@reladie]

Terry you have lovely taste. I would reconsider painting hat stand. Paint paneling instead, it's very drab.

[@marilynnash1197]

Love the chandelier. The brocantes always look so interesting. Hope you all have a good week😊😊

[@jomcgee6094]

It is so much fun when you two brocante together❤ I'm loving that chandelier Terry, can't wait to see it cleaned up and hanging. Enjoy your week. Hugs

[@andytrujillo2935]

Thank you Ash, it is so nice to hear "I Love You"! Those lamp shades almost look like Lalique! Thanks for sharing...

[@42apprentice]

You could put the coat stand on a stone plinth to boost it up or put new higher feet and make it cover the top area?

[@ashleywaters7198]

Great idea :) thank you :)

[@nzessmam]

Oh please please don’t paint the hatstand - it’s such nice wood - a lovely piece of furniture. It looks really good unpainted against the painted panelling even the colour it is now. You certainly have a nose for finding nice furniture and decorative items.

[@claudetteparadis3969]

It’s wonderful to see the love and sheer joy expressed by Terry and Ash when they go on an adventure together. Can’t help but smile and share their enthusiasm. I know that you have to paint the hatstand in order for it to blend in with the paneling but it it is such a beautiful piece just as it is. Great find though along along with the magnificent chandelier. Looking forward to Wednesday’s vlog 💗

[@jackchevalier8105]

Bonjour jonathan. Ça va ? Tu aimes bien l'école en France ?

[@ashleywaters7198]

Hi Jack :) he’s sat with me here! He said yes and he likes school :)

[@kdean9537]

Hi Tracy, Tony, Terry, Ash & Jonathan, Really lovely to see everyone, including the dogs, & I loved hearing the donkey apprx @30:46 😊Enjoyed going antiquing & the chandelier is beautiful, good finds! As usual listening to the chat at the end is always nice. Thank you for sharing, have a wonderful week! Take really good care of each other. Much love Kathy x 💖

[@marshawargo7238]

I thought of that as a Bonus! I'll be watching a video & they'll stop roll their eyes n say ugh a plane or car or train, or Somethings making noise! They'll wait then continue. The Whole Time I Don't Hear Anything! These guys are either used to him or thought he just needs to be heard, because they don't even acknowledge him & I think It's Adorable!🐧💦💕

[@MsSherrydarling]

Please don't paint the hat stand! The chandelier is gorgeous. Could you not get panelling to fill in that gap?

[@jenniferjackson6535]

If the hat stand isn’t perfect can you fit the door back to the outside, a false door, so that you can then paint it all to match? I love the stand as is without paint.

[@rosemariedeschenes7013]

I would not paint the hat stand. The wood is too beautiful. Especially if you go with a green color on the panels. Maybe some gold highlights on the stand. So many beautiful items at the shops you visited. The sunsets were gorgeous on the way home . Thanks for sharing 😍😘

[@kerrylynnparsons9441]

Great purchases! Plus a nice day out! I love Patrick enjoying his adventure too! 😊❤️🎶👋🇨🇦

[@roxannepowers1]

You went to my friends antique shop Say hi to Annette for me matey

[@elisabeth6108]

Thanks for taking us along on your treasure hunt. The chandelier is lovely and unusual. The hat stand is a very clever solution to the missing paneling problem (but I agree with others - I hope you'll reconsider your plan to paint it!) Always nice to sit in on your chats - even better in the sunshine!

[@TheCrowsNest1950]

Hi All...In the latest vlog, I really liked the hat rack and the chandelier that you purchased. Did I hear that you wanted to paint the hat rack? OMG, it's so beautiful with its original finish, I think you'll definitely regret painting over that beautiful original finish. Some antiques are made to be enjoyed in their original state. It may need a bit of polish and the brass hooks, it's rare to find a matched set on a piece like this. I can't wait to see where that great chandelier will be hanging in the chateau, the best to you all, Mark

[@tracybrown6207]

Hi guys, love the hat stand, but please just give it a polish, it doesn't need paint or gilding. Tel.. you are arty so do a trompe l'oeil effect on the bit on the wall above the hat stand, or place the stand on a plinth, so it raises it that couple of inches. Special message for Jonathan for 40yrs time (2062).....It's payback time on the 2 old fellas lol.

[@germaineholmes2247]

Loved the hallstand

[@ldqa2737]

24:06 dining table, chairs and service hutch... Very stately. And did you notice the green tapestry, possible color options for the room where the large mirrored wood rack will be located?

[@gibadias1637]

Beautiful pieces! Amazing the things you can find in those french brocantes. And the prices are very tempting too, if you consider most of the pieces are real antiques. Please keep the hat stand as is, it looks fantastic!

[@raynonabohrer5624]

Did I see a spinning wheel???? You should get that! My wheel burn. When my home burn down. 🔥 .

[@leighevans1394]

Love the hat stand . You could spend days in that “brocante” !! I’d have to fight you for some of the things you like :)

[@vwdaphne]

You can't cuss, it's KZbin :)..Love what you've picked out. Wish we had as big a selection of antiques in the U.S

[@TheAwakeningangel]

I love the coat and hat stand, and the Light is stunning just make sure it is well sealed if going into a bathroom as the moisture might cause it to short circuit ? I would so love to go rooting around those places with you only I would need a lorry and fat cheque book, so much I was saying oh that yes that as well, lol, I was thinking while on your travels around these places to look for a antique room divider you know to change your clothes behind as be great for the cottage bedroom above xxxx Dede .

[@Linda-bh5yx]

Please don't paint that hat stand. It is gorgeous as is and will really stand out against the painted walls. I really hate to see such good wood painted. That chandelier is amazing. No wonder you couldn't leave that behind.

[@sandraberry612]

Terry & Ash the love you have for each other is adorable 🥰 your chandelier is absolutely stunning it’s going to complement any room in the chateau ! Love the hat stand Terry I’m sure you’ll make it look fabulous with gold leaf 👍 Take care 💕😎😷

[@1jmass]

I do like the music you choose to go with different parts of the video. When you are carrying the hall tree there is almost traveling music. It adds a lot to the fun of watching the videos.

[@oxwoman8]

I'm all about painting wood. But. Depending on the green you choose for your boiserie, I think the installed coat rack could look quite smart if you didn't paint it. I love an intentional "unexpected" feature. Some nice wax and gilt would really make that piece stand out.

[@gloriagavaneli9862]

Very good shopping. Waiting for next vlog to see work inside.

[@hopewalker5764]

DO NOT paint that hat stand. Do Not. No. Nope

[@ldqa2737]

6:43 that table looks like it would fit under the staircase next to the chair. The little 3 leg crescent shaped table. A little cleaning up and tightening maybe?

[@heatherdunleavy5551]

Loved the shopping trip. The hat stand and chandelier are great finds. I don’t think that Ash is much of a bad cop with monitoring your shopping Terry. I would say that aye fine you know it that you could persuade Ash that anything was an absolute necessity. Your banter makes me smile xxxx

[@heathermcrobert9779]

Really like the items you picked up today. Too bad about 95 being 950!!!! Oh well. Another one will come along in time. Just love the way the pets intermingle with you at the end. They love you a lot and it is a beautiful sight to see. Waiting for one more delivery of seeds, then sending them off to you. Best. PS so funny, I was just wondering about the front door. That will be a major sight to see.

[@upsupeter]

Love you 2 guys but please either get new mics or talk louder as even the tv on loud you4 not very clear. Like see more of you 2 together. Keep up the good work.

[@sharonmiller2940]

Just a suggestion, because I love you guys...is to pan more slowly, and linger a little longer over interesting pieces. We'd also love to hear more about prices, along the way. The chandelier is lovely!!!

[@juliefields594]

Sorry , I forgot to say I’m in Australia

[@lozinozz7567]

Anybody else spot Tintin’s rocket in the background of the treasures:)

[@patmcloughlin6409]

My OCD would be wanting to re-organise that whole warehouse so that it was easier to view the items 😱. Don’t know why they have it like that - you could have all the furniture together, lighting, crockery and then brick a brac, clothing, books and others paperwork and art in another section hahahahaha.

[@fortunemickaellagenevievec8803]

I’m blown away by the beautiful things in your 2nd outing

[@rowenacountryman2242]

I swear this store is one I seen Billy Petherick in. I know he was at your party so I’m curious how far from them your chateau is. It’s great that y’all support each other. Hopefully all of the different chateau’s can maybe come together and do a festival or something. Ash you need to check with Phillip with how to renovate a chateau without killing your partner for some of the apple cider you couldn’t get at Christmas. Keep up the great work.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thank you very much 🥰

[@jeepgeek7259]

[@michelleoldson9972]

I would do the bottom with decorative mouldings or feet would give you coat rack more presents in that space. You guys have a great eye for things

[@jeanninef2110]

Love the chandelier and outdoor lamp that you picked up!! That mirror was beautiful though! Maybe you'll find a similar one at a better price in another brocante. Love the hat rack! It will be beautiful there!

[@markisaacson5728]

Why would you paint that beautiful wood all stand????

[@tonymalone4187]

Why don't u get Bob Mortimer to help u he'd be good in a Vlog

[@WilldoAldone]

That chandelier is awesome. The hall tree is nice too, I can see it painted to blend into the wall. Painted furniture is so country french too! Its not a fine antique so painting it is ok in my humble opinion haha.

Don't paint it!!!

Loved your brocante trip. That hallstand is fabulous and would make a great attachment to a hidden door, especially since it looks like where you want to put it had a door there previously.

[@jannpower8728]

Loved your purchases! The hat stand is such a beautiful piece and looks like it fits perfectly- am wondering if painting it a good idea but terry has a good eye so I’m sure it will all work out in end Do enjoy your family chat at the end- looking forward to seeing the doors installed- I watched Budo make them You are all such an inspiration

Love the hall tree, so beautiful.

[@judithjordan3474]

That chandelier is so beautiful! Can't wait to see the bathroom that deserves that! As for the hat stand, you could put trim on the top to hide the hole, or you could raise it up a little on the bottom (which would disappear more). The top hooks would still be reachable and the mirror not too high for even shorter people to see themselves.

[@robertbonfiglio3218]

Love the antiques - especially the chandelier. But don't paint the hat stand - it is beautiful the way it is!!

[@emilysopow]

Any plans for new old doors on the bottom door of the chateau, and Tracey and Tony’s other cottage door?
