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 and Escape to rural France to restore this beautiful building to its former glory.

As I watch you rebuild, reconstruct, remodel, I wonder what the people who originally built this building would say if they came back. I can at times almost visualize a horse drawn carriage approaching the building, or standing in the suite 400, or inspecting your work in the garden. I wonder what they would say to all of you. It is a grand and tender dance with the past and the present. That is a gift of the artist that can not stop giving in service of beauty.
I have had the same thought. The original builders and owners watching what is being done to their lovely home.
What a beautiful comment Nancy! So carefully worded and well written. The picture you drew in my mind was wonderful. Thank you. Terry and his family well deserve all of their admirers, but few can put pen to paper as you did.
I second that Nancy, beautiful comment!!!❤
Yes, Nancy, I have pictured the same thing, but could not have expressed it with the charm you used to match your charming thought. Thank you!
Beautifully said; thank you.
Your patience and skills are astounding, watching you repair walls and floors that seem beyond repair is very satisfying and you must feel the same.
This shows someone in complete control of his tools and his materials. Beautiful.
I see all the original workmen standing around you watching in total amazement. You and Ash are so amazing.
OMG Terry! You are doing Master Carpenter work ❤️❤️❤️I am impressed! Bravo!!!
Great save! So perfect that tiling the bathrooms has given you the needed flooring to repair the other rooms invisibly. Also very clever how you used the bits of salvageable paneling from the 400 bedroom to repair other rooms. Your family has been an amazing gift to the chateau!
That smile give's you away ,when you are pleased with yourself ,another job well done 👍👍
Terry your problem solving skills are amazing. Well done again
Terry you're a fabulous wood maker! Very talented mother as well but so is Ash! Love watching you guys! 😍
You guys simply amaze me with the skills you have developed over the past 3 (?) years. I’m not sure there is anything you can’t do! Terry, you are an artisan, a designer, a master craftsman all rolled into one. And we know who you learned it from! And Ashe and Johnathan are learning from the best!
I’ve done puzzles my whole life…over 60 years. Those floors give me a headache. Congrats Terry!
Another ‘just’ job. Our inner critic has a very loud voice, that makes a task feel insurmountable. But with patience and perseverance that job is done. Ticked off the list, and it’s beautiful and so satisfying. Perfect match, looks just like original flooring. Great job! ❤🏰
The floor looks amazing Terry, you've done a fine job, and downstairs will be simple as because you know you can do it 😊
Terry, what you have accomplished with this floor is art as well as construction. You, Ash and Tracy are a great team. Looking forward to the next step. ❤
Craftsmanship par excellence!
Terry it looks amazing... You as always have done a brilliant job of repairing the floor. It looks fantastic... it'll look beautiful when you are all finished.
Beautiful, you are just growing all your talents, whatever you Ash and Tracey do.
You are amazing Terry! Your ability to have the patience and the meticulous attention to detail is a gift. The rest of us can focus only so long then we just want to get it done and hack/hurry our way to the end!
Classic. Truly classic!!! 🥰🎶❤️🎶🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🏰🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Terry, well done good and faithful servant! Well done. Awesome work! Your patience is inspiring. As well as Ash’s and your Mum’s. Brilliant! Thank you for being a bright light in our ever challenging world!! Feel Blessed to be a part of your incredible journey! 🦋🌸
I hope you all realise that you all are creating an incredible holiday destination. You will have to beat them away with a stick. Yes you did make it look too easy! But you are conquering your dread and coming out the other side with outstanding results. Bravo!
Did you get pointers from Adrian, the Grand Salon was an enormous jigsaw puzzle. I love that you all network and help each other. You must feel so much pride. 💖🙏🤗
Another brilliant “just chateau “ done with Terry’s talented skills. Bravo 👏 😍😘
More fabulous work. You are all brilliant. The original owners of the Château would be thrilled
You never cease to amaze me, Terry. Your attention to the details and then creating those details is beyond impressive. You're an inspiration.
Another problem solved Terry & may I say beautifully done. Your a stickler for detail & it has payed off. This Sleeping Beauty is being beautiful restored, back to it’s former glory, by yourself, your wonderful Mam & Ash. I’m so amazed at what you all have achieved. It’s truly incredible. 👏🏻😉
Terry you have the patience of a saint
A little bit of patience, skill, knowledge and determination has turned out a beautiful looking floor, that you would never know was damaged. The chateau is so lucky to have to all to restore it respectfully.
Brilliant job, Terry, and so satisfying for you and for us to watch!
Terry I love the fact you try to preserve as much of the timber at the Chateau as possible. Everything you touch turns to Gold. The floor looks terrific so far look forward to the end result
Just think all that was built with hand tools and no electric saws. The ancient workers were masters indeed.
Terry you never seem too amaze me what you can achieve, I absolutely love watching you work on this absolutely beautiful lady. I sit and wonder just what the former lady of the Chateau is thinking watching down on you. Im sure she approves of the way she is looking. Again You and your mum surely do a magnificent job. Seems your thoughts on your work click wonderfully.
Terry, you have the patience of a Saint 😊😊
Your chateaux journey is a giant jigsaw puzzle you are solving with incredible joy and accomplishment.
Terry, I totally understand how you dread some of these jobs, but you begin concentrating and figuring out the details and somehow you are the master of perfection, the results are brilliant! Once again, bit by bit the chateau is standing proud!!! xx
I love the phrase “crack on”!!! It is super catchy!
Nice job! It looks great, it will be so beautiful once it is sanded and waxed!
Terry you did a wonderful job!!! I can't wait for the result
Interesting beam use for the sub floor….very clever. All the toll expertise you have now! Floors are a piece of cake
Très joli travail avec tant de patience et de minutie. Bravo à tous les 3 !
Ahahahaha easy? Maybe because you're such an artisan! ❤ Amazing and especially well done on lining up the lines!
What an amazing puzzle.
Hi Terry, you certainly are an inspiration! It's not easy to keep in the moment, I would think, and just do the job that has to be done, without being overwhelmed. One step at a time gets any job done. Everything looks wonderful when you all finish each step. Having so much help from family and friends certainly must provide the needed support. Congratulations!
Aligns perfectly, stop it all ready😊 You are the man Terry! The dream team ❤
You are a true craftsman and artisan Terry. Beautiful job.
Very good job with the floor, just like a pro🎉
Pure talent!
Terry, it may seem unbelievable, but it’s mostly mathmatical. You do the math precisely, you get spectacular results. Nothing but the best from you. ❤
Getting the chevrons to line up across the original floor AND your restored floor must have given you such satisfaction! Another brilliant piece of work 🥰
Bravo Terry 👏❤
What a magnificent job you've done on restoring the floor under that window Terry! Truly masterful! And Ash and Tracy haven't been shirking either. They're doing a superb job of sanding that panelling on those walls which is a tedious, very labour intensive job. Well done, all three of you! Can't wait to see those rooms finished!
Terry! Looks absolutely amazing! Will show so beautifully when it’s sanded and finished can’t wait! I’m so excited…we’ll done!
You are amazing! I thought what a mess and then you did your usual magic. Enjoyed the video.
Your many talents never cease to amaze me... there really isn't anything you won't tackle. I look forward to the sanding/ finishing, when it seamlessly blends into one. 😘👌perfection! Fantastic job, Terry.
Excellent job with the floor. You make it look easy
Another "just job" ticked off the list as very well done. Terry, you are amazing. Recreating all of those angles is not easy. You may be called in as a consultant for other chateaus in the future. God knows you already got enough work to do. This room will look amazing. Enjoy your weekend all.❤
Well done a difficult job, can’t wait to see what you do with the garden , the design is in keeping with the chateau, definitely going to to use some of your ideas in my own garden,
Well done!
Attention to detail comes through again. Just amazing. Looking forward to seeing the progress as usual. Love as always from County Durham xxx ❤
Terry Ash and Tracy. I feel knackered just watching you all. Your energy is boundless If there’s a problem you always find a solution to it ❤
That was beautifully done Terry.
You make all this look easy!
PS Billy Petherick refinished a floor in his chateau this week and he used a plaster sander on the floor instead of industrial sander.
You will always get it just right 😊
Nothing short of a work of art old bean.....
The best way to learn is by doing. The only way to build a strong work ethic is by getting your hands dirty. That's all you, Terry.❣️
You make it seem easy but I know its complex...!!
Hi Terry !❤. Every room is a labor of love and the work you do really shows the love you have for the projects! I envy you ! You and your family are so courageous because every project is so detailed! I haven’t seen Jonathan lately tell him I said hi and hope he is enjoying Chateau life😊
Well done. Looks great! You all are just so amazing.
Terry, your sarcasm was showing through when you stated not complicated! Great job - great patience 😊
Terry… Wow! Great job! You made it look easy and It was not. After the entire floor is refinished this video will be the only evidence of damage.
You never stop impressing me!! You do a wonderful job.
Fantastic job on the floor, like a puzzle, you love figuring it out 💖
It was a pleasure to watch such an exacting craftsman. When completed that room will be another stunner.
I am always impressed! Brilliant work! ❤
Very enjoyable Terry such patience 😮
Hope the floor jousts are intact underneath ....
I really enjoy watching you breathe life step by step into those old decrepit rooms. Brilliant.
At the beginning of the film I swore you were laying this floor over dirt! It's going to be as gorgeous as the others once it's sanded and refinished. I'm so glad you are pleased with the outcome. It's a misery when a job is "finished" and you don't even want to look at it. 4 stars for you! ⭐⭐⭐⭐
You do a fabulous job.
Great job as usual Terry😊
Congratulations te you Terry. You are Gold fingers... Friendly, Mary de Tours.
You all have such an amazing work ethic and enthusiasm. I’m sure it has been overwhelming at times….but you all have accomplished so much it’s truly incredible ! Plus the videos for KZhead….I’m amazed at your energy. Will your volunteers come back to help this Spring and Summer ?
Wow how do you know how to do all this stuff ? Incredible. Also I was wondering have you still got peacocks on the land?
You three are incredible how you tackle each job with trepidation but they all end up finished professionally done. The skills you have all acquired are amazing, does it look easy Terry no😢 but you fathom them out and the end results are fantastic . I can’t wait for your next project and the fact that Tracy keeps up with you two guys is just mind blowing love to you all . Tune ❤
Terry,wieder ein super Job erledigt ❤! Alles liebe von Ross und mir ❤❤
Excellent job!!
Terry you are a man of all trades We are in awe of
Very satisfying result. 😊
Terry, Your puzzle skills did it again, the floor came together wonderfully, It' s going to look amazing when done!
Please help me understand why there is DIRT between floors and not insulation and joists. BTW, love your YT channel and look forward to Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays!
Dirt was used in all the old chateaux as there was no such product available! Many of chateau restorations I have watched have to deal with the same thing, getting rid of the dirt and putting modern products in 🙃
They used mud and animal hair as insulation
Terry just watching you is calming. As it all comes together we are seeing your dream coming to fruition. Love you channel.
It turned out fabulous! Excellent job.
Looks great!
The floor looks amazing you did a great job Terry you would never know it's been replaced ❤
bravo Mate . That was so amazing. Old world technics meets new world tools. You are brilliant. Love from Canada
Good job Terry👍👍
I know Ash was sad there were no large spiders to deal with under the floor. ❤
If I didn't have life commitments here, I would love to spend my time helping you guys. I love refinishing/repairing wood. You and me Tracy 😊
Terry you are an absolute legend sooo talented
