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.

Please! NEVER apologize for posting yard work videos! There is so much skill and hard work involved. It's fascinating and inspiring!!!
The family is incredibly hard working! And Tracy is a Rockstar, she kept up and plugged away at the wall, never stopping to get the wall done. An amazing family❤😊
So true! The impact they have made on the restoration is incredible. And through it all no matter how tough you see how much they love each other. ❤
@@EmilyBltz Yes, the love for each other is pretty strong❤
I. Agree, what must the people in the village think when they see how beautiful the Chateau is now. It’s extra ordinary, and so gratifying to know this British family has transformed an ancient building and will make it magnificent.
Wow ! Terry, you are so lucky to have a mum like Tracey, she works so hard and this is work many men would hesitate to undertake. She's amazing I have nothing but admiration for her x
Thanks Karen! She’s one amazing lady!! 😊😊
Her X??? Have I missed something??
@@judithdonnelly8824 x is a kiss
Many men would hesitate to undertake…? Really?
@Bounty Hunter Mk 2 yes really !
Terry, you've really become quite the expert stonemason-- your work looks fantastic! 👏👏👏And I just love how sweet you and your mom are working together. Having lost my mom a couple of years ago, I appreciate how precious this time together is. 💞
He has hasn’t he! He’s done amazing! 😊
@@delorisjones7729 thanks Delores. That would be me! I do plenty. Not always on camera! Maybe before being rude. Make sure your right!
@@delorisjones7729 how dare you say that about ash are you there 24/7 watching ,ash workes just as hard as everyone else's so you should keep your negative opinion to yourself anne from Scotland
@@annescott6137 thank you Anne :) 🥰🥰
@@ashleywaters7198 take care Ashley
I love seeing all the animals in the background - Patrick really has an ideal life right now - so many holes to dig
Haha. He loves digging. The chickens love him digging. He tends to have at least two or three follow him if he’s in the garden 😂😂
@@ashleywaters7198 and now I am imagining a Patrick train - a sausage dog engine with chickens as carriages.....
@@ingridhendy5922 haha. It looks like that when it’s on Timelapse 😂😂
Beautifully filmed.
It is amazing how much the three of you accomplish week over week. It is equally amazing that Jonathan helps where he can. Most children his age would not be able to do the work or even want to. You must all be exhausted after all of the manual labour.
Thank you Shelley :) he loves being involved :) 😊
A great education for Jonathan 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
It is looking absolutely amazing you guys are achieving so much together Well done Terry the walls are looking lovely Cheers see you on sunday Love hugs and kisses to you all Johann South Africa ❤❤❤❤❤
It is one thing to get the hard work done (amazing BTW) but to do it WHILE creating a high quality Vlog is another! This dedicated family has no need for a gym membership with the kick-ass projects they tackle at Chateau de Lalacelle and that wall was a beast! AND hey if you stopped by and enjoyed the content that Terry, Tracy, Ashe, Jonathan and the animals put out, take a moment to subscribe...they deserve that one-second, cost nothing, push-of a finger effort from us!
Thank you Ella 👍😊😊
Ella Altman -- there don't appear to be beauty queens/kings in this project; all working together ... no messing about, eating fancy meals all the time, travelling all around, or shopping. Wow! You guys deserve a medal among the DIY projects going on in that region. Terry is an amazing woman working the way she does is more than enough to have me admiring her more and more. You certainly are the real thing. It is a pleasure to see you all hard at work. Congratulations!
@@claritadeluna6609 thank you so much Clarita ❤️ it wonderful to read such kind words 😊
Another exciting episode --- look at all the progress being made by this hard working family 👍💪; bravo💯.
Thank you so much, we are getting there with it 🥰🥰
This Sunday in Canada is Mother’s Day, a time to celebrate mothers. I think your mom would be the “poster face “ of a Mom to be celebrated. 🎉 Great work everyone .
Thank you Catherine! She sure is an amazing lady. We will make sure she has a lovely day 😊😊
Honestly, it looked back breaking, but the end results are spectacular. You've managed to repair and replace so that the wall looks as if it's been intact for centuries, with the only damage age. Well done, Tracy, Terry, Ash, Jonathan, Patrick and Sasha! I think this is the sort of project you'll feel satisfaction over every time you walk out the back of the chateau. On an editorial note, the balance of montage, chat, and musical accompaniment were spot on! Really well done, Terry.
Thank you very much, it is a great job done, so glad you enjoyed the music and editing 🥰🥰
Well said! Mammoth job but fantastic result! 🤩🤩
Your mom is such a gem! I hope you know how lucky you are to have such a supportive helpful person in your corner. You all are really amazing and so hard working! Well done!
She is amazing! 😊😊
The hands of those who built this wall ages ago are reflected in your hands. You honor and respect those who came before you as you rebuild and acknowledge their work.
With all the work you have done in the Walled Garden, the Chateau is really starting to look like a grand estate. There is so much love for the grand old lady from you and the viewers. It such a beautiful property.
Thank you so much, it is starting to come together 🥰🥰
Tracy, you are absolutely right that we need to watch you! I agree with you that that wall corner is some of the best stone work that Terry has done thus far. The look of pride and love that you gave your son was very moving. So respect all of you for the backbreaking work you are putting into realizing your dream.
I am so proud of all of you for jumping right back in for the repairs! Really inspiring! Perseverance, tenacity, and GRIT!! Of course, you have Lord Patrick cheering you on!! ❤ 😂 ❤
My back hurts just watching you work! Your mum is amazing!
She is! Thanks Shannon 😊
I was thinking the same, Shannon!
Gosh when you think how many staff would have been employed on this Chateau to build and maintain it and your little team is doing it on your own I think France should be giving you the legion de honour for all your efforts .
It amazes me just how much you all get done in a day! You must work from ‘dusk to dawn’ to achieve these results and keep on going until it’s done. What incredible work ethic and such great role models for Jonathon. Tracy you really do deserve all the accolades you are getting and Terry you have become quite a stone mason of excellence now. Those rock walls are fantastic now and still look aged. 👏👌🥰💐
You know what guys, my mother immigrated from Portugal to the US, she always told me, your BEST tools are your hands, nice that you’re cementing your stone wall with your “hands” nice method.
Thank you very much 🙏🥰🥰🥰
Getting stuck into the work is what makes this channel great. Hardworking folks. Well done and the wall looks ace.
Thank you 🙏 😊
Hard work indeed! You have to laugh at that useless Stephanie woman at Lalande, that gets over half a million dollars a year donated from viewers to help save her chateau... while she sleeps in 'til noon everyday, swishes around watching volunteers slave away for free every day and escapes for a relaxing vacation every chance she gets, instead of working every day to restore the crumbling mess she lives in. (Spending a thousand dollars a roll, on the worlds most expensive wall paper, for the washrooms is not 'restoring' a chateau... the sinking foundations, rotting windows and doors, the crumbling walls and finally installing a heating system should be top priority.)
@@ItsMe-yv9jd do you know how many hours it takes to film and edit those videos whilst overseeing the running of a successful bed and breakfast and in-between all that she decorates, sews,cooks and cleans. Did you see her on her hands and knees cleaning all the stone floors with linseed oil, she deserves holidays just like the rest of us. I really wish people followed the old adage if you can't say anything nice,don't say anything at all
We've been fans since the beginning, such a hard working family, the transformation of the chateau and the grounds is amazing. I wish I could do a third of what Tracey does all the time.
Your incredible hard work is making the Chateau look as if there has never been a ruin. I wish I was young enough to come and help.
Thank you 😊
People don’t understand how MUCH work is being done, on a daily basis! Job well done !
Would love to see Terry refurbish the chairs with materials
When we get to that point we will show it :) we’re some way off that yet :) 😊
@@ashleywaters7198 I apologize if I'm being pushy..I'm just excited over all the accomplishments you all have done...I'm very very impressed. Love your channel. I will sign onto patreon soon..I just had a major $8,000.00 repair situation arise unexpectedly. So I will sign soon.
The wall looks great! Every direction you face are the results of your hard work. The feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment must be enormous. 👏
Thanks Carrie. We are very pleased with the results 😊😊
Good job, guys. The ancestors really knew how to create a beautiful garden❤
Yes it is well thought out and put together 😍
You know Terry, you show as much deliberation laying your last stone as you did with your first stone. Impressive-professionals do that! 👏👏👏
Slinging all those massive stones must have been torture. You try to make it look easy, but we know that it definitely isn’t! Just hacking away at tree roots takes mighty energy😅. Getting all the walls around the formal garden repaired was an incredible feat. We admire all of you and your stamina!👏🏻
Thank you so much ☺️
Brilliant 👏 You two did a fantastic job" 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I don't blame you mum taking a break from wall duty for a bit 💪 But I will say the walls beside the chateau are important to get Done Fur sure" perhaps the boys can manage it" 🤔 It would make it all look so much tidied and cleared up 🥰👍 I absolutely love watching you all Wish I was closer to you I would love to help out" really 💪💪💞 Sending biggest hugs and much love to each of you" 💫💐 Stay safe and well Please 🙏🏼
Thank you ☺️
@@chateaudelalacelle 👍💞💐😁
Love sitting here watching ya'll work🤣🤣 No, just teasing, I watch an episode and get motivated to start my jobs!
Thanks Keri :) 😊
Yes! They are absolutely inspiring!
Today in my yard I had a hard task and no help so I channeled Tracy. How would she do this? And I cracked on! 😂 not stunning as your results but I was pleased. The 14th of May is Mother’s Day. I wish Tracy a beautiful Mother’s Day. Give her a treat. ❤❤
Thank you very much, and well done for taken on your inner Tracy ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you ❤
Ingrid I was just thinking the same ideas . The animals around make it all so friendly and down to earth literally.
Thank you very much ❤️❤️❤️
Tracy needs a vacation! Tracy, your my hero! 😊❤
Thanks Wanda :)
@@ashleywaters7198 are you and Terry going to help Tracy finish her upstairs bedroom? She deserves it.
@@paperchaser9565 thanks Wanda. It’s finished :)
@@ashleywaters7198 oh wonderful news..so her cottage is completely done?
I bet a long soak in your bath Tracey would be a welcome relief after a hard day.
the walled garden is now a perfect canvas time to plant. brilliant work.
Your mom is the best hard worker Happy Mothers day to you. Terry, I love your work ethics doing it right never cutting corners and don't stand around. getting it done. When is Tony coming bacK we miss him?
Thank you so much for that 🙏🥰
I have been watching from the beginning and I swear each day I am more and more impressed with how much you get done and how well you work together. It's mind blowing really. I had energy when I was younger to do a lot but not as much as you all. Again Impressed!
Thank you so much 🙏🥰🥰
All I can say is BRILLIANT, you kids have done a fabulous job of restoring the walls and at the end of the day you are really spent, a voice of experience here and at my age I take a break every hour or so, it keeps me steady...but the drone footage is simply stunning...you all should be very proud...even crazy little Jonathan...CHEERS...!
Thank you so much 🥰🥰
I’m exhausted just watching! I need to lay down somewhere!
🤣 it was hard work ☺️
All of you are the best....I cannot believe how much you have done and the Chateau now look alive again
Thanks Shirley :)
Terry's work on the wall is just beautiful.
He’s done an amazing job :) 😊
I wouldn’t want to take Tracey on in a dark alley. The size of those stones are massive. She’s one strong individual. Love your spirit Tracey.
She is amazing 😍😍😍
Torch burning those pesky vines poking through is going to be a weekly job for awhile (in the cool of morning or evening)... Beautiful job so far.
Thank you 🙏 😊
Tracy….how in the world were you able to walk after working with those heavy capping stones? My back hurt just watching you work. 😂😂😂. Bravo to you and the boys….great job!!!
I don’t know how she does it! Thank you 😊😊
Absolutely amazing! All of you are so vital to finishing each project! I love how you do one section at a time and then share the results of your hard labor. Can’t wait to see what happens next.
Your skill level has grown so much!!! The way you say turn on the cement mixer with such confidence!!! I don’t think 2 years ago you had the confidence. Keep going keep building I’m loving it all
Thanks Patricia :) 😊
Still, the hardest working family out there 💪! Your efforts 👌 really make a visual difference, not to mention that you will preserve your château for future 😉 generations.
Thank you so much ☺️
Ya all are AMAZING!! I love the beautiful rock walls around the gardens! INCHANTING. ❤
Thank you ☺️
It really does show the importance of not letting plants grow to close to rock walls and maintaining them. Such hard work.
You guys wear me out just watching you work. It's looking beautiful.
Wow, Terry's rebuilt wall is perfection. The capping stones are looking gorgeous. You all looked like warriors attacking the invaders!
Thank you very much ☺️
The wall looks amazing great work terry and Tracy and Ash you all work so hard your work ethics as a family is tremendous
Thank you ☺️
I'm tired just watching you work . Looks amazing . Job well done by all ..
You are both doing a wonderful job with your restoration. The cap stones look perfect. Amazing that they have survived all these years, to be lovingly reset topping your wall! Adds so much to the soon to be garden!
Thank you so much ☺️
Watching your family restore the Chateau and surroundings makes my day! Great work.
Thank you ☺️
The wall looks amazing Terry! Is there anything You all can’t do ???? You all work soooooo hard! Well Done 👏👏👏
Thank you so much ☺️
That was pretty satisfying watching wall repairs. You must be very happy with it. Here’s hoping no more uninvited tree roots emerge.
Thank you ☺️
How am I just noticing that the garden stairs are curved? Great job getting out the roots! ❤
Yes we love the bottom steps 🥰
You all seem like you're unstoppable. As big as my projects are, they are nothing compared to the work happening there. I hope you get a chance to enjoy some of that.
Thank you so much ☺️
You are an inspirational family. You work hard, love hard, laugh hard and support each other. Jonathan is a lucky boy and each one of you have many blessings. Tracy I think you must be a bionic woman, because your back must be made of steel. All of the back breaking work doesn’t stop you. I wouldn’t be able to straighten up after all of that bending, digging, pulling, lifting. The walls are stunning and the random animals running around in the background is precious. xx
Thank you Stephanie 😊😊
You have all worked so hard it looks amazing and Patrick's digging has helped bless him team work ❤
Thank you ☺️
the capstones have the chicken seal of approval... "yep, nice and level, good job plucky humans." 🐓 🐥 ☺
Haha. They sure do 😂😂
Watching you guys do all this incredible hard work and the amount of it! I cannot imagine what that would cost to hire people to do it all. Would cost more than the Château probably.
Once again y’all have done amazing job restoring the stone walls. The walls will last another decade or more. It’s going to be amazing when the garden is established. Sending some West Central Texas love God bless
Thank you Karin :) 😊
Such hard worker’s 😓 all of You team work as a Family gets things done ✅
Thank you ☺️
Labor of love. A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together becomes reality. Thanks for sharing, my friend.❣️
Thank you 😊😊
Everyone has a talent and does what needs to be done. Sometimes we do not see all that is going one. Great job being done by all of you!!!
Thank you 🙏
Yes, its back breaking work, but it must be so satisfying to see the wall straight and true again, restored back to its original beauty.
It is amazing seeing it without roots! Thanks Barbara 😊
Absolutely brilliant job done on the walls. Love the way Patrick and chickens help as well lol
Thank you 🙏 😊
Tracy you have earned a long soak and a bottle of wine or two in that beautiful bathtub.
She did 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Another backbreaking day for Supermen Superwoman and Superboy.❤
Thanks Susan 😊
Another chore to conquer! Tracy never backs down from hard work now we know were you boys get your work ethics! Bravo to all 👏🏼👏🏼. Happy Mothers Day to all the wonderful ladies! 🌸🌼🌸
I had a busy day and evening, but finally have my gin and tonic relaxing. Time to check in with my favorite chateau in the world and see what was happening...and you did not disappoint!!! Incredible stone work...and the wall just looks so magnificent without the roots! I can't even imagine how tiring it must feel after doing all this stone work...but there are some awesome inspiring biceps showing up! 💪 😊 So happy to see the frogs🐸 ❤
Thank you so very much 🥰🥰🥰
Rock Stars all of you!! Love from Kansas City, Missouri - USA...
Thank you ☺️
So impressive what you are doing with removing all of those huge roots in the walls and all of the repairs.....well done "Team LaLacelle". Will you be pulling all of the wee baby ivies out of the wall as well so they won't grow into large roots in time? Fantastic Job!!!
Thanks Jane. I’ve been round and sprayed them all :) 😊😊
Of all the restoration videos out there, I enjoy yours the most. Keep crack'n on.
Thank you 🙏 😊
Seems like the chickens love your company. Its raining dogs & chickens. Great job.
😂 yes the chickens love it 🥰
The wall is amazing and seeing how long that really is makes you realize why you put it off! And thanks to the gray skies from that upper wall the views of the countryside were so amazing. I’d love to be standing there. You are making it all majestic again!
Thank you so much, yes the views are just amazing 🥰
