Welcome back to Dreaming of a Chateau!
January and February at Chateau de Puy Vidal were quiet months as we continue prepping for the 2023 season and anticipating the arrival of Robert and Penelope to Puy Vidal. It's Valentine's Day, we visit the Farmer's Market & we bring in Architects to Chateau de Puy Vidal to begin envisioning a future Chateau kitchen and additional guest rooms.
In this episode we share the successful launch of our new September 2023 Oil Painting Workshop called "Retreat to the Château" with master painter Johanna Spinks.
Follow her work at: www.johannaspinks.com/
Julia and Carolina visit the local Les Halles Market for our Sunday market day trips. They also share with you some exciting ideas about future renovations at Puy Vidal.
-------
These are the adventures of Julia, her partner Carolina, her sister Penelope and her parents Maruca and Robert; an American family taking a leap of faith, living out a long-awaited dream.
Chateau de Puy Vidal is a medieval fortress turned renaissance Castle, and is located in the Charente region of Nouvelle Aquitaine, France. This channel is dedicated to our love of chateaux, old stones, magic, family and history. We share with you our process of applying to visas, setting up a business, purchasing a property sight unseen during COVID all before moving across the world. What happens when your dreams come true?

As someone who restored old houses, I applaud your approach to this project. I watch tons of RU-vid videos of people restoring mansions and chateaus. Rarely do I see people stop, step back and make a long-term plan. They simply run around putting out fires, fixing one problem after the other. They fail to do an overall assessment of the building's bones and maladies, not knowing if all their work is going to last or fall through into the room below. If I were 40 years younger, I'd pack a bag and find a little spot in an attic so I could be part of this adventure! I wish you luck!

Oh my goodness! I love the gorgeous Kings Room!! Your chateau has some of the most exquisite furnishings ever! Your renovation plans are massively expensive, but with such a vision for growth, profit and sustainability, you need to see them come to fruition. You ladies are amazing, your Chateau and grounds are so beautiful and I love watching your vlogs-

So many homes/abodes are renovated for the sole purpose of flipping. I've heard people say they'll leave some problems for the next owner. Right. Those problems may or may not have been concealed. All people over the generations have more things to do than fix repairs. And many issues were never given much thought. While I love big, beautiful homes, in truth, they are not for everybody.

You ladies are doing an incredibly mindful renovation and your business acumen is impressive. Such a pleasure to watch you all together, working as a loving and thoughtful team. Your workshops sound outstanding and I would love to participate one day in the future. I lived 10 years in South western France myself, running a 5 star BNB, so I understand your challenges and applaud you! Best wishes from my new home in Tuscany 🥰😍🤗💐

You are all very lovely, very interesting, very talented. Yes. But my warmest thoughts are for Troubadour and -- kitty-cat(forgive me but forgot your name!). No matter what happens in this chateau, how many guests you treat, how much art you create, friends you make, how many disagreements -- no matter what: A cat and a dog are living their best lives here!!! Wonderful to see Troubadour prancing around happily while you discuss bathrooms and rotting floors. Every minute of his and kitty's life is exactly how our pets should be able to live!!!

I agree with T.J. Bren. It’s so impressive how much you have accomplished in one year in the chateau and the gardens. Tackling the infrastructure first is so smart along with the business side to pay for the renovations and enough rooms ready for the events indoors and partying outdoors and accommodations down the road for more guests. Everything you do has been well thought out. Your chateau is beautiful and so are your gardens. Your events will be a huge success. Congratulations!!!

And I love Troubadour . I love that you have goals beyond making You Tube videos and are curating this magical space for the future AND I absolutely love you have a cooperative arrangement with the neighbouring chateau WIN WIN! So fantastic for the local area and community

Business ideas for the Lady of the château 1.Outdoor Shakespeare Plays 2. Mirage ceremonies 3.Pop-up cinema 4. Carport 5. Farmers market 6.Film festival 7.Pop up restaurant with a well known chef 8. Cookery school 9. Kitchen garden 10. Puzzles and Gardens Maze constructed from 2400 yes trees 11. Room, dinner, alcohol 12. Children adventure park 13. Trail shooting weekend 14. Bed and breakfast 15. Ledbury Poetry Festival 16.Food Festivals Most of these things can be held by an event coordinator. They’ll of course do all the hard work and due diligence and of course split the profits with you whether that’s a 50-50 split or 25/75 split that’s all dependent on the agreement between you and the coordinator. They’re are country homes in the UK that has them, and it can provide a good monthly and yearly income. Especially if the upkeep of a home is 30 to 75,000 yearly.

Dear Chateau de Puy Vidal family, I love watching your plans grow and develop to fruition. I had a few ideas to toss in. One thought is to host a night sky viewing with at least a few adequate telescopes or to bring in a specialist during an art conference as an evening activity for the participants. The other idea is to have a permanent labyrinth installed. Start the layout with a stone path with sufficient width allowance for easy walking and/handicapped wheelchair access.

Wow, your discussion of long-term planning is so interesting! Your term "pain point" is a useful construct. The fact of your traffic flow issues was not so apparent until now. I have noticed that a number of owners live in a separate wing or even an outbuilding (Bordeaux Life and Beau Chateau and Escape to the Dream). It's clear from watching reno channels that the 1970s was an era of very shabby workmanship, but you are very fortunate to have functioning, though problematic, utilities. Thanks for sharing the anguish of decision-making --- it is very interesting.

Sounds like since the various artists are so different, that a guest could attend more than one retreat and not have it be the same! I am very proud of y'all for embracing the French lifestyle which includes being ecofriendly with the trips to town! I think you could use some technology to control the lights, temperature, and anything else possible, if such technology would work where you are. I know you got new internet cable laid, yes? Y'all are so smart to have lived in the chateau for a year and tested your model before embarking on a lot of renovations. This overhaul will be the best thing for your family, the chateau, and your business. Once you connect the wings, your guests will be able to get their luggage up to the west wing without having to use the small spiral staircase. Will there be a structural engineer involved? Make sure it wasn't just door drips on the floor--that it's not the pan and/or any pipes that are leaking. Will you put little kitchens in the family rooms? Does your software also handle the billing? So glad that Papa Leach and Penelope are coming!

Whoa! Your chateau is like a maze! I LOVE the spiral staircase! My mouth dropped open when you showed the hole in the floor by the shower! One word…..Yikes!!! I can’t believe that when this was renovated, even in the 70’s, that there was no subfloor etc put in??? That’s just unbelievable!!! I’m so glad that you were able to get interior architects to help you with this huge project. I’m sure it was devastating to find this out but think of it as a blessing. You will be able to properly get things fixed and done right so that all of your future hard work won’t be wasted. Looking forward to seeing what transpires with the architects solutions. 🍷🙏

Wow! You all are trailblazers! Great respect for what you have chosen for yourselves. First time I heard of talent passport and looked it up and you guys are under some pressure for sure with that alone, let alone the extra renovations required. Yesterday, I was watching a couple of expats on RU-vid from England talking about taxes in France (40%) plus a "Christmas tax" for those who are self-employed. I suppose one could avoid those taxes if their business is incorporated in the USA for example, but it appears that a "talent passport" means you have to build a viable French business. Very interesting and so much to know and consider. Wishing you ongoing perseverance!
