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.

As much gardening as you've done,, the raised beds, repurposing the trees, etc., it's nice to see that you're leaving natural spaces for the flora, and fauna indigenous to the area to live, and grow. The bird song is a perfect example of how much they must enjoy your loving care of their beautiful, though a bit overgrown, habitat. Keep up the beautiful work. Everything gets more lovely with each video. Thank you all so much.

Patrick is always the highlight of your gardening videos .... I want .... no, I need a Patrice now!

[@carrielea6009]

Wow, haven’t seen the raised beds or anything as I haven’t seen this blog. Most excellent garden! Amazing! Yum

[@jrh2u]

I'm so glad to see the veg garden being developed. It looks wonderful. Enjoying this journey very much. Keep up the amazing work.

[@paulinedixon3490]

I love the way you all get stuck in. There’s no pretensions about you You don’t try to Talk Posh either love it. When I’ve seen the little man he’s a little topper. Best wishes to all of you

[@brittawrolson5936]

Such hard work, but with extra hands helping, the result is Outstanding. You will be eating produce in no time!👍🏻👏🏻

@@derekbriggs6207 You look fit to me 😉🤗

[@larryr.johnson3048]

Of course you need a chandelier in the tent, so you can legitimately call it ‘glamping’! Johanna Maine USA

[@chateaudelalacelle]

🤣🤣 thanks Larry 👍

[@janeblandford852]

As we would say in Canada "Aren't you a bunch of busy beavers" working away and doing an amazing job! Love that you are flying the Canadian Flag 🇨🇦. Your place is really starting to look fabulous. It's amazing with the 5 of you how fast things start taking shape. Well done and always look forward to seeing your progress. Thanks again for taking us along on your journey💝

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

Mais vous êtes incroyables... vous n'arrêtez jamais !

[@irenebrown3144]

Johnathans hair is going light from being working in the garden. Such a precious young boy

[@chateaudelalacelle]

He is 🤗🤗

[@iu.5146]

The ashes from the burnt pile are very good for your garden. “Wood ash is an excellent source of lime and potassium for your garden. Not only that, using ashes in the garden also provides many of the trace elements that plants need to thrive. But wood ash fertilizer is best used either lightly scattered, or by first being composted along with the rest of your compost”

[@jocquemorrison9785]

Awesome video. Really enjoyed the raised planting beds. I know you have a grand master plan for all the land and nice to see little pieces of the pla. Wow just wow 👌

[@moiragoldsmith7052]

Willow trees are pretty good noise diffusers for that road area. A chandelier for the tent... champion. 🥳🥰🤣

[@daledrake7870]

your updates are the highlights of my week, thanks guys

[@CoCo88530]

What a lovely family. Working hard. My family could not come close.

[@l.landriault9465]

Love the Canadian flag...from Quebec Canada!!! :)

[@janiceincorvaja9266]

Love the Canadian flag !🇨🇦

[@stephaniegaromon3244]

Jonathan is growing up so quickly. He’s so involved in the renovations and the gardens that he’s becoming an expert. I love how he’s growing the plants and vegetables and knows them by name. You are an amazing family, and you are providing Jonathan with a wealth of knowledge far greater then what he learns in the classroom. xx

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

[@kerrylynnparsons9441]

Jonathan is a growing boy with a green thumb!!! 😁🌻 What a wonderful activity for him. I love how you are reusing plants in other spaces. 👍 So much progress! And the pretty-ing aspect is really kicking in!!! Chateau de la Lacelle is looking more lived in inside and out. Congratulations on how far you have come!!! That is a lot of hard work and fortitude to get it done! 😊❤️🎶🌻🌺🌸🐓🇨🇦🇫🇷

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

[@freubel9]

A very nice comment and I totally agree.

[@juliafonseca181]

Bringing The chateau back to life is a lot of work but you guys are very strong

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Wow, that’s a busy noisy highway. Keep planting trees, they’ll absorb the noise and eventually screen off the trucks. I love the flower recycling.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

[@angelapa9513]

Hi Sweet Family ❤️

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Hiya Angela 🤗

[@kendallricker9633]

I know this sounds like hearsay but cut all the flower blooms off those transplants so they will put the energy into root growth. Good luck on all the plant transplants. There is a family of Brits that have a You tube channel (Escape to the Chateau DYI, Dick and Angel)that have a Glamping site...their floating tent area does have a chandelier in the tent. Their Chateau has a working walled garden. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to your next video.

[@watcherowl5387]

Oh I love your gardening I imagine heirloom pumpkins would look great to

[@monicateeling8693]

Wow...... WHAT A HARD WORKING FAMILY 👏❤️👏👏👏❤️❤️👏❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@normamurray4450]

I've said this in every comment, I love watching you folks do your thing as a family and singly as well....you're all top notch! To see the Canadian flag in the wagon made my day....hello again from British Columbia, Canada! I love your instant garden! I love watching Jonathan work along side you folks....so sweet!

[@chateaudelalacelle]

It was a gift for jonathan and he loves it 🤣

[@shelbycooper7504]

Have missed you

[@chateaudelalacelle]

[@jimm8682]

Wonderful as usual, … footage with Jonathan explaining what he had planted, love to see how you are getting the land more beautiful and colourful., Loved the small Canadian flag on the barrel.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

[@elainejoyce3990]

What an amazing amount of work . Such a lovely family you make me smile thank you . Jonathan is a delight .

[@irenebrown3144]

Being a Canadian I just wanted to say I like the little flag.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou Jonathan was given it as a gift and loves it 🤗🤗

[@chrislarsen2684]

Nice Levi's shirt Tony!! You all are looking so bright and healthy...Love to see it.. God Bless!!

[@terryjarvi2392]

I love that Patrick is right in the middle of the mix most days. What a great little helper he is! Let’s not forget how handsome he is. A true star 😊

[@carrielea6009]

I know, he’s the cutest little dog. Gets so excited when digging is involved.

[@junematthews8612]

Anything that survived in a neglected garden is potentially invasive! Take care!❤️

[@zander8018]

Now that the guts of the Cheateau are in code, now the pretty stuff is coming. An Elderberry hedge along the roadside will help deaden the traffic sound....and in bloom would look great, giving glimpses of the Cheateau.... Fantastic. Just an idea

[@rosewright6272]

Boy you guys are busy little biz. Looks great

[@elizabethheatley22]

Love how you’re utilizing everything that’s already on-site. Just so good for the environment- and your bank balance! You are all doing such an amazing job!!!

[@shirleysmith5394]

Terry go for the spectacular lighting, glamping is good.

[@jasminaalm]

Your vlogs are so fun, and heart-warming. Thank you for the joy you bring !

[@marypaddey4625]

Lovely to be working outside in the sunshine. You're going to be busy watering though. Hedging/trees very necessary to hide that busy main road, so good luck with that.

[@robertdavis3020]

At the beginning the forest sounds are so lovely 😍

[@cindy6406]

Love watching your family god bless yous all keep safe ❤

It would be nice in late spring to take us around and show us what these areas look like now!

[@paulinefreeman9492]

Look forward to seeing you soon 🥰🥰🥰

[@rev.lorenzocromwell9805]

Being a Canadian I cannot help notice the Canadian flag on the wagon. Nice to see a bit of Canada there. Hello from Niagara Falls Canada. I watch all of your videos. I would love to come and visit you sometime.

[@inabates8919]

Ahhh 😌 awesome 👏 a vegetable garden. Where you can, preferably in the actual beds themselves, use cardboard, keep the plastic liners for the walkway. Venues are always disposing of paper and cardboard.

[@kathyeggert1983]

In Canada we have our local Horticultural Society to which all our Garden clubs belong.. We have great plant sales and swaps.. We meet once a month on Sat am. I looked up before.. I think France has something similar.. Great resource

[@yvonnejackson1926]

Jobs we’ll done!

[@elisabeth6108]

I'm exhausted just watching...

[@bettybay2181]

Well done guys, hard work, please rest now.

Terry, your tent with a chandelier is called “Glamping!” Perfect!

I love watching your family, and the glorious transformation of your chateau. You all have such good taste and it is getting more and more exciting to see all the changes. Thanks for sharing your projects, it is so inspiring to watch you all tackle things with that great British "crack on" attitude! Love it.

[@kenwest6576]

It's a real joy to see Patrick working so hard and doing his bit to clean the land.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

[@penihavir1777]

Tha was a tough week for you, but amazing results! I agree, why not a chandelier in the tents - after all, it’s glamping, and what’s more glamorous than a chandelier? “Just” have to make sure the tents are sturdy enough to take your strongest storm. 😉 Thanks again for inviting us along! ♥️♥️♥️

[@ach4215]

chandelier in a tent....yes!!

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Terry said the same 🤣🤣🤣🤗

[@nigelspendlove9088]

Just in case you thought I'd gone away. LOL I haven't missed an episode. I was going to congratulate you on a drone free episode. Sadly you put in three of them in at the end.

[@patriceogrady9763]

Camping with a chandaleer is called glam- ping!

Great gardening

[@noreenen2347]

you all work so hard, including Jonathan. garden is beginning to look cared for but still has that lovely wild look.

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Thankyou 🤗

[@suekennard5766]

If you dig any nice tree stumps out consider saving them and making a stumpery in one of the woodland areas- planted with ferns and hosta they look fabulous. If you check out the BBC Chelsea programmes last week they showed a stumpery one day, and explained how to make it. You are doing a fantastic job, so hardworking, but happy souls. Love your channel.

[@mopanimickey1591]

When everything blooms it is going to look beautiful. Jonathon is thriving! He looks so healthy and I love that he is so willing to chip in and help. 😎

[@chateaudelalacelle]

[@shannonbailey8201]

Well that’s a lot of work looking great 😊

[@carolannobrien3746]

You need to add a waterfall/stream to drown out the noise of the road . It would be fab 🇮🇪

[@chateaudelalacelle]

Good idea 👍

[@annettewalter2273]

Johnathon is so enthusiastic about the garden, lovely to see. I could do with a Johnathon! You certainly all worked hard, so much progress.

[@davidwhite5931]

Try making a chandelier out of ivy, twigs and branches, it would look fantastic in the Dome tent!

[@dianegraydon1143]

Your hard work is really pulling this huge massive project into beautiful areas of such creativity..I'm starting to see the plan...your wall is huge..what's next for that..could you fly your drone around that so I can put it in perspective..little dogs following along digging at his hearts content how wonderful is that...are you drinking enough water all that digging.. No breaks? Talk to the foreman about that...see you Sunday😀

Roses need sunshine. That is why the came to back to life when you put them outside. It is lucky they survived at all.

[@juliedooley2854]

I have just checked. Roses need at least six hours of direct sunlight per day. It may have been better to plant your lilies in an area which is in shade for some of the day. In the summer they may struggle exposed to the hot French sun all day.

[@laurag.2148]

Loved the vlog ❤️🇨🇦

[@ashleywaters7198]

Haha. We had some Canada flags sent and Jonathan loves them! Plus I have family from Canada over in a couple of weeks, so hopefully will feel at home!
