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.

I can’t tell you how much I am enjoying the fact that you all are making a point of including Tony in the conversation now. I absolutely missed having him around because he is why I started watching this channel to start with. I feel everyone is now having more of a voice here instead of just one or two. Well done family and crack on.
Terry you are so lucky to have a father n law who sings your praise!!
You all need a round of applause, 50 episodes and your all still laughing! LOVE IT !👏👏👏👏
How wonderful to see you work with your family members - Ash’s dad was just so genuine just like Terry’s family. So good to see. You can also understand where Terry and Ash got their work ethic and have so many skills
Eco-flo is a necessity these days. Especially during renovations as well as camping, off site power tools, you name it. It’s worth every dime! Great sponsorship guys. The lights in the tower look so nice. Love seeing the families come together and share their knowledge and their so helpful. Can see where you guys got your work ethic too. I especially am happy to see both families love, support, acceptance and pride for their children.🏳️🌈♥️ My brother didn’t say anything to my parents until his late 30’s and at first it wasn’t easy, now it’s great! Much love to all of you! Love seeing progress. Aww, look 👀 you’ve gone to visit Stephanie & Philip and fam crew. I know you both needed a getaway. Too much hard work eh. I’m so excited you got 2 peacocks 🦚 how magical! Omg I’d un alive Terry for that 🤣🤣🤣🤣 God bless and be safe! ♥️🇫🇷🍷
It's so thrilling watching the insulation go up and the bottoms of the walls getting framed. And wow! Is it ever amazing seeing how far off square things are as you and your Dad are framing up the bottom half of the walls, Ash! As for Terry's electrics - it's exciting when the lights come on!
"Many hands make light work", as they say. Graham has allowed you to leap forward this week, and I'm sure your Easter visitors will do likewise. Brilliant progress 🥰
Terry NEVER STOPS!! When I was there he was on the go ALLLL day long then onto planning and footage on the evening, when I went to 'help' was more like a holiday where I nicked Ash and we sneaked off LOL. Ya'll work so well together!! I absolutely love you guys, great to catch up!!
You are such a lovely family and to see Ash's Dad working with him is so nice...he fits in the mix perfectly! Looking forward to seeing how the peacocks are settling in...they are lucky birds to be a part of your family.
Lovely to see Ash & his Dad working together and how supportive Ash’s Dad is of Terry. You are both blessed with your folks.
We truly are! Thank you!
I was thinking the very same thing! Here in America, I grew up being rejected and basically hated, treated like a....heathen....by my own parents....because I'm gay. I left "home" at 19, I legally changed my first, middle, and last names, and I never looked back, and I'm ok with that. THEY chose this reality, NOT ME. I was ostracized by the very people who were supposed to love me unconditionally, so I walked away. All these years later, nothing has changed with them on this front, either. I should've emigrated to the UK or France when I was in my twenties; the people there seem to be so much more loving and unconditionally accepting of everyone, just....so truly progressive; I LOVE that.
@@jamescarrington5521 not nice to hear! No one should be ostracised over something they have no control over! I’m ash, yea I’m gay but that’s not who I am. If your parents can’t see past that, then it’s their loss! Hopefully you have lots of loving caring people around you now!
I’m so sorry that your family treated you that way James. My brother was gay, in the 70s. It wasn’t easy for him in a small town. We, his family were accepting, but he left for London where he had a huge community that he could feel part of. Sadly he died of AIDS in the early 90s and I miss him still.
@itslaboosh 🤐 !!!
How nice of Stephanie to gift the peacocks to you. I know they will be happy with your family, and be a lovely addition to the chateau.
@ARIEL There's a video on Stephanie's channel, she said it there.
Mum was so funny at the end 😂
Your peacocks will be so happy living on your grounds .
I am dreaming for the day we get a reveal of the rooms on the 3rd floor fully completed. You have been working so hard, I can only imagine the result in the end. So glad you are the family that the peacocks went to. 😊
One cannot but admire your dedication and enthusiasm. Your international fan base applauds you, wishing all the best!
Having an Ecoflow is actually a necessity now as you can take power anywhere with you.
It is amazing 😊
I've seen bits and pieces of your vlogs here and there over the months, but I must admit, when I saw you both on Stephanie's vlog, at Lalande getting the peacocks, it was enough to make me go, "ok I need to start watching these guys and their channel, too!" So, I've just spent the past few days literally bingeing thru every one of your vlogs to catch up, and now I am a new sub, and simply adore your family, your chateau, and what you are doing to make her glow again! So happy for ME! 😉🥰
Glad you got a little time away together. Can't wait to see your peacock out and about. I wonder what Patrick will think about it 🤔😂😂
Patrick is already excited by the smell! No doubt he will be rolling around in peacock poo as soon as he gets the chance 😂😂 🦚 💩
We know Terry does a lot of the behind that isn't shown, but it was so good of Graham to mention it and remind us all of the hard work you all are doing, that we don't see! 👍So good that Ash has Graham to help out, as well as Terry! Congratulations on the new additions to your chateau family...the peacocks have a wonderful new home, can't wait to hear what their names will be! I just love the chats...I know I mentioned it before, but it always feels like a lovely visit with everyone! Would love to meet you all one day & help out! Thank you so much for sharing, take really good care of yourselves, stay well! Much love Kathy x 💖
Your Channel and Chateau are my FAVORITE!!! Real People with lots of creative talent and energy!!! Thanks for letting All of Us be part of your Dream!!! Cheerio!
Such a labor of love ... 🏰 !!!
Terry....I wanted to see you all pop-on-down the road! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you Graham! Love seeing so much moving forward…
Really amazingly great editing, loved the video & your other videos!!!
Thank you so so much 🥰🥰
Ohhh, Yes Please 👌👍👏👏👏💕💕💕💕🥂
I loved how Terry ripped down some of the insulation and was laughing at Ashes face he made right before Ash said he wanted to murder him. Tooo funny.
Hi guys, I'm still sitting on the sofa, at least the Christmas tree & decorations are all up. I've been binge watching you and the families, I've laughed with you, I've cried with you (the wall collapse). Thank you for the joy. We're on our way to Steph's at La Lande (l've followed Steph for years). Love n hugs from Australia 🇦🇺
Wow, what great team effort in getting so much work done on the chateau; Ash's Dad was a great addition to the team with his added effort at the chateau. Also, the peacocks are going to make a great addition to the chateau environment but you'll have to get some of that sparkly ribbon that Stephanie was using to keep them off of the cars when they start to explore the grounds. Thanks for sharing another week in your lives. I found your channel at the beginning of my Spring break last week and binge watched your videos over the past 9 day. All of you are doing a wonderful job of breathing new life into "the old girl". Take good care. Donna in Taiwan.
Thank you so much Donna :) glad your enjoying it :) Graham has been amazing here, and wish he could be here full time! Yes we will have to get some disco tape like Steph! Take care!
@@ashleywaters7198 Give the disco tape job to Jonathan and he'll put it everywhere that's needed and more.
We know how hard you work Terry & im sure everyone can see,renovating a Chateau is back breaking work ! Starting from scratch is to be commended ,not for the faint hearted 🤪 How are the Peacocks 🦚 I watched Stephanie & Co trying to catch them ,it was hilarious 🤣 Take care keep smiling 🥰
The peacocks are a perfect addition to the chateau, Jonathan is sure to enjoy them. Hopefully you rename them.
I can’t wait to see all the stuff that you’re doing I love your show
I know you are looking forward to the visit of family. The extra help will be super too. I can't believe how much you got done this week!
Love the fact that you are being sponsored by such great companies, that kit is a dream come true for your renovations.. Your enthusiasm and love for each other shines so brightly and never fails to brighten my day 💗
It really is amazing, sponsor or not I would have one of these in my life 😂😂 Thanks Claudette!
Another great week guys.
Make sure you show us the Pea birds in their temporary pen in a future video, while they imprint on the local magnetic fields and learn where their new home is.
Great video guys, really enjoyed it. Your really getting on with thing now terry & ash. Ash’s dad is a godsend. Love to u all lisa x ❤️😘
Amid the chaos is some beauty. You two and Tony and Traci will look back at all you have done and wonder how you did it! Crack on!
Those panelled wooden doors are so beautiful xxx I am obsessed ❤️
Good for you, that little trip. Good luck with peacocoks
I am a year late finding you all, but watching from the beginning and trying not to peek at where you are now and the progress you have made. But I cannot wait to see your third floor home completed!!! ❤
Everything is going along really well.Glad you 2 got to get away .Sometimes you just need a rest from working. I so enjoy watching.Be safe God Bless all of you all.
So much being done!! It is coming along so well!! Bravo! Lovely to see Ash and his dad working together! You are all a lovely family!
Renovations can be very testing and challenging on a relationship so I’m happy you guys got to go away for a change of pace. Have fun with the peacocks.
I have loved it . Great jobs done bye
Congrats on your new addition of peacocks. The lights on in the chateau looked fabulous. Great work. You are all doing awesome.
Love the panalling in the turret. What a boon having Ash´s Dad to help. Can't believe you drovecall the way to Stéphanie´s. So now you have a peacock for your château. Love your positivity
Your enthusiasm is so genuine a pleasure to watch xxxx no false or over the top grandstanding I love your amazing work ethic and the way you all support each other xxx
So great to see the progress made. You must be all so pleased. Best, David
Good evening I like watching your vidéos. It is so exciting to see how quick this abandonned "castle" is being restored. I Know , as a daughter' s house builder what a difficult and painful work it is. I have a lot of admiration for all of you. I drove along your beautiful mansion today and would have fancied to have a look at it. Congratulations Laure
Hello, thank you so much, next time you are passing please just let us know and you are more than happy to visit 🥰🥰 Kind regards
It is so much fun to watch your videos: your hard work, enthusiasm and love for one another is heart warming. Keep up the marvelous work!
Thank you so much :)
I was happily surprised when you mentioned you were visiting LaLande. I found it confusing why no one came to say hello. I thought perhaps everyone was away but it wasn't so, as we got to see a tiny bit of Stephanie, and Amaury. I'm sure there was a reason. You are such a lovely couple, and I've come to enjoy being a tiny part of your 'universal' family....I would want you both to feel welcome...and truly it didn't seem that was the case. I hope I am mistaken. It is amazing the stamina Tony has...up and down on tall ladders, scaffold, lifting, cementing, etc., etc., He quietly gets on with whatever is needed. You each are extremely hard working and very talented. You are a wonderful family, it is a joy to hear the laughter and kindness. Blessings, Peace, Love. Wishing you a Beautiful week.
See you Wednesday
I can't wait to see! I saw you in the Laland video
Bravissimi 👏👏👏👏👏😘
hope the doorway is big enough to get furniture through!
Wow, you went to visit Stephanie she is awesome 😎
It's looking wonderful. So much hard work. You can really see everything coming together ❤
A well earned break for you both.
Wow, is there anyone in the family that doesn't know how to do remodeling?? What a great job!
I am so happy we still get to see the Lalande peacocks parading around your place! what a fun addition!
Just a little concerned about the dogs’ reaction to the peacocks?
Amazing how much yous have already achieved and the editing is bang on, absolutely beautiful.
Having a third hand is so helpful. You get so much more done-it really is amazing! The product you advertised is it in the US, too? Chasing peacocks wouldn’t want it to be my full time job. Can’t wait to see their new home. I understood it’s a very nice place you’ve done for them. Can’t wait you see the colors you’ve picked. Please no gray. I’m so sick of it. Great week!
Hi boys love your work and your family support. Had to mention the music is beautiful with the scenery it just relaxed me so much. Thank you 😊🇦🇺
What a good idea to use the shelves in the closet to store your tools. So happy to see someone who keeps a clean working environment!
Love watching your video’s and your friends at la Ferte you all work so hard,it’s a credit to you all.
You make me happy. 😊
Love you all, and what specials parents you have xo
cant wait caught a wee snippet of the great peacock catch on Stephanie’s channel………love you two chaps, great work ethic and just genuinely nice lads x
Enjoy your Stay 👍👏👏👏💕💕💕💕🌹🌹🌹🌹
You guys did not stay long at all. It would have been great to see Stephanie, oh well. That’s nice that you went.
I just absolutely ❤ love your banter and felt like I was in the caravan with ya'all and laughing ma head off.loved the Tony comment Ash's man bag".love to everyone 🥰💛🤍🧡❤💚💜🖤 xxxxxxx
another great episode , and its always great hear you all laughing together
Nice to see you having a break you all work so hard. I was in bits when Tracey was on about the plaster 🤣🤣
I am so excited for your guys it looks incredible Can't wait for Wednesday and then sunday i am so excited for you both Love Johann
I loved the LaLande visit and your new peacocks!! I’m getting so excited for you all ! You are almost done with your 3rd level!! Woohoo
I hope you were able to encourage that dear old lady with the mismatched clothes.. Did she know you were coming?
First shot Ash and Terry......Ash looks like hes gone down the JFM route lol xx
Loved this week's video....Great to see how another pair of hands just moves you forward and lightens your load. Despite the weather you all seemed in great spirits and that was really good to see. Hope you have some lovely family time ahead. Weather set to improve too so hope its a great Easter for you all and the bbq area is a big hit.
Cold in the DC area still. My tulips 💐 aren’t happy about that. Great job people…
We all appreciate the work you are doing even though most of us are not working on a chateau. You have come such a long ways since you started.
Thank you :)
♥️♥️♥️
Oh boy are you gonna regret getting peacocks lol. Noisy as heck, destructive in the garden and there poop never dries . Bye bye sleep. The chateau is coming on so fast now, it looks fab 😀 it's getting exiting.
Great Ep. I have loved seeing all your hard work! Remember to take time off and enjoy friends and family.
I watch stephanies channel too!! It’s so nice you both got to go there and have a short break!! Would love to see where you put the peacocks ?? Everything is really coming together!! Crack on ! Hugs from Colorado!!🤗
:) we have built them a nice enclosure to get used to lalcelle for a few weeks :) Once released from the enclosure, it’s unlikely they will use it again 😂😂
You are so GOOD together. And I like your chateau the best! Crack on!
Ash is experiencing dble Christmas excitement in his power unit
Hope you are insured for fire with all those power saws, drills etc. Remember Cathedral in Paris burned down when carpenters were working on inside doing renovations on ceiling I think. A spark from a power tool started fire.
Aw bless ya Ash ..you were like a kid at Christmas telling us about your new piece of kit 👌 x
Absolutely gorgeous photography!
Thanks Bruce!
Just visiting the refurbished Chateaux would be a fantastic holiday!
I love the time-lapse videos of jobs from start to finish.
They are beautiful birds. You are blessed to get them. I have a wire one in my window I enjoy every day.😎👍😍I love Stephany and her clan. Good people
Love that place as well.😎👍😍 Enjoy your time.
Just love those North East accents, you always make me smile. Said it before, great work ethics, all of you.
Please fellows, sprinkle some water on the floor before you sweep. It’s far healthier xx
What a nice little break for the both of you. Johnathan is going to be so excited .
I am so excited about the kitchen I can’t wait to see it done. I have butterflies in my stomach🦋 I can see it and I know it’s really beautiful great job😄
FYI-they sell-or you can make - what's called a poultry hook. Makes it a lot easier to catch peacocks, chickens instead of having to corner them and hope you're quick enough to catch them. Enjoy the new birds. They're beautiful and lovely to have around.
Thank you. I’ll look out for one :)
Team work makes the DREAM work!🤗 ❤️🇨🇦
There is door coverd is the one you had made.
bonne soirée les amoureux
