Hello everyone, today at the Château.
Ash and Tony show us around the third floor of the chateau and discover some beautiful little features a long the way, including vintage wallpapers, locks and our first key to the building.
When we brought the château, we got no keys or history about it. So to discover our first original door key is fantastic.
We will talk about of plans for this space and how we will live in them, plus start work on cleaning the years of mess from each room so we can start renovating the château.
And If you would like to join us on our family journey restoring this once abandoned château, then please just follow the link below, 🥰

About us and our story,
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.

I would love to see the same wallpaper recreated for all the rooms! The colors are amazing and really elegant! I believe there are companies that will take a sample and custom print them.

@@chateaudelalacelle The hardware on the doors is so wonderful. It's easy to clean the paint off -- soak overnight in a Crock Pot on the low temperature setting (do you know what that is? Also known as a slow cooker, but I don't know if you have them in France. Check a local brocante, you may be able to find one there). The paint will just fall off, maybe a little scrubbing with a toothbrush if there is paint in the details/crevices.

I’ve heard from some other chateau owners-if you want to clean the metal fittings on the windows (closure pieces) you can put them in a fire and burn the paint off. They say it comes off easily, then if it’s brass you can polish it. Just a thought. 😉❤️

I love the exposed beams in the unfinished areas. Will you be leaving them exposed? That looked like a really dirty and head-banger of a job to clean that loft out. Good job, Tony! Be careful Ash doesn't use that 'there's spiders' excuse too often! Haha! It's going to be a long walk to the loo in the middle of the night. If there's plumbing in each room, wouldn't it make sense to have the bathroom between the two main living areas - the bedroom and sitting room? It would give more privacy between the bedroom and sitting room. Plus, a fireplace in the bathroom for ambiance while Terry's having his bubble bath ... how romantic! 💕😄

Also found the schematic very helpful so I knew just which room you were talking about at any point in the video. Kinda wondered why you were making the middle room the sitting room as it’s the smallest of the 3 but that fireplace sure makes it. I hope you’re able to put the fireplace back in working order, otherwise consider making it the bathroom because of its size. Another great video. Johanna in Maine USA

If you want to read writing etching in stone use "frotage" method: Soft paper, charcoal drawing sticxks and hold the paper or tape it over the writing; then rub the area with the charcoal drawing stick. To make it permanent then spray with a fixative. The writing will be easily readable. Supplies available at the local art/stationary store. Good luck.

Hi, what about putting in new roof light at back in kitchen/diner. As so large could put roll top bath on plinth to make most of view and also hie pipework. As so much storage could open up storage areas either side of dormer in proposed sitting room which would not only give more floor space but make room lighter. Lovely paneling. 😎

That room would have been originally the linen room/laundry room. It would have been where the sewing and mending were done.

I agree with this. The amount of linens they needed and being that the servants stand on the third floor makes sense.

Really enjoyed your vlog, it’s becoming really interesting as we get to know you all and the chateau, your home is looking so different and lovely, such a change to seeing it in the beginning, I wish you all well in your new adventure together

Maybe a silly question.. But, is the part of the Chateau with the tower considered the back of the Chateau or is that the front? I just love all the woodwork on the walls going up the staircase.

Thank you very much, the turret was added on in the 19th century and was originally the back of the château 🥰
