MY COUSIN'S MOVED IN!!!
There's a new guy in town - my incredible cousin, Amaury, has moved in to the chateau! As our live-in carpenter, he has an epic mountain of restoration (and hopefully a whole lot of fun) ahead of him. And, in our first ever 'DanCam', Dan edits footage of the INCREDIBLE moat clearing that he and his team did whilst I was in Italy...
To see Dan's in depth version of clearing the moat and managing the grounds at the chateau, check out his amazing daily vlog @escapetoruralfrance

My goodness, your cousin is easy on the eyes! 😍😉😍
'Struth!
Kirstie can hold her own alongside the men. She is badass!
I agree!!
Me too, you go girl!🙂
and she has dimples!!
Love her so much!
You go girl!!!!
Can we get this to a bunch of likes so Stephanie can see this comment? I just wanted to say that I LOVED the format of today’s video. Beautiful transitions (b-roll of the chateau, peafowl, etc.), excellent background music, and I especially loved Stephanie narrating dan’s video input! I think more la landers should put inputs of what they’re doing with Stephanie narrating it. Today’s video is so well done!! Pls keep it going!
l think it was great too well done hey from Ottawa Canada
@@valariebresee4450 Hey from Quebec City Quebec.
It would be a delicate balance. As Chatilane she has to do the rounds daily to make the decisions and I love the joking around between her and everyone. Dan and Kristy also have Vlogs with different styles and I enjoy them all.
@@carolinegooder7091 what is the name of Kirsty's vlog??
I agree. Philp has proven his value as flimographer and editor. Then she can focus on her pet projects, like filming other chateaux and historic places - (my favorite way to watch Stephanie). She's a natural narrator, storyteller and wonderful historian. I think she may have studied Art History, b/c her classical knowledge is in depth.
I have to say as the gardens and yard work have progressed the chateau has become more and more stately and royal looking 👑
The chateau looks so Legit! It is a far cry from just a little while ago-- it doesn't have a chabby chic look anymore-- just a snappy regal one! Wow. Congrats to all the hard work, headed by Queen Stephanie!
I was just marveling on the transformation.
@@elizabethackerman681 right?! Also the cleaning of the sides of the moat is surprisingly a huge improvement to the whole look of the chateau!
The difference that Dan the Gardener has made at LaLande is astounding! His dedication and ability to do every job to perfection is almost unbelievable. LaLande can never lose Dan, it is a risk you cannot take. I suggest you double his salary and increase his time off immediately! (Dan, was that okay?)
LOL!
😅😅😅😅😅well done!!
I agree 100 % 🦔
😂🤣
😂
Dan and Kirsty are two of the hardest working people. Wonderful couple. They get real things done.
They are awesome, but not a couple. Dan is married to Annalise.
Kristy is a sheep whisper and someone called her the Fire Goddess of Lalande.
Kirsty wins the best hair award. Great hair! Also, Stephanie’s cousin is cute!
You mean a real hunk, don't you?
@@MaryRevery lol But he is for sure.
@@MaryRevery well, I don’t know what a real hunk is. I don’t think I’m attracted to hunks but I do find certain men charming and attractive
Cousin is definitely hunky, seriously hunky. Keep him and you'll have a steady stream of female help. He's smokin'.
So cute
What a wonderful team you have at Lalande. The difference in one year is astounding.
Dan has made the grounds magnificent! Stunningly beautiful. He is a gem!
And he gets such good footage with that little beat up drone.
The courtyard looks amazing from above!
@@janetthomas8244 I loved the shot of it flying under the little bridge of the cleaned up moat !
Good job Dan & Kirsty.
How much did he pay you for that comment!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Can’t wait for Michael Potts to see the moat!
Hahaa! He may just jump in...if it's a hot day..!
I love Gerry being back. I hope he realizes how special he is.
I hope Mummy doesn’t see the messy bedroom! 😂
@@meri8746 It would be funny seeing Mummy getting cracky at Gerry if it is. I bet Gerry would 1 get scared then 2 make a joke lol
We love Gerry! He works so hard driving the cab where people are some times not nice to him. I know he is scrappy and loves his job but I wish he has more time this year to enjoy Lalande and traveling again. Hanni is a friend of his so I have to smile that they are cleaning up Lalande together. Isabelle sent that list remember. 😋😋😋😋
They were truly “moat”ivated. It’s absolutely beautiful.
😂🤣😂
Excellent. I can hear Phillip laughing over this one! 😂
Philippe?
@@s.m.5651 Stephanie's camera man assistant.
@@wandamackenzie144 yes I was wondering if OP was channeling him.
Kirsty and Dan are incredible.
Watch the number of subs sky rocket now Amaury has joined them, lol! Can't wait to see him get cracking with the grand salon!
Lol I hadn't thought of that but now that you've said it, you're totally right.
Dan's drone shots are fantastic. I keep telling him to name the drone Loretta cause she does one heck of a job.
Criminy, is everyone in your family gorgeous?🤗 Can’t wait to see the paneling progress.
Dan’s footage is truly epic. What a gem.
What works well for smelly carpets is to chuck a bunch of bicarb of soda on it, let it sit for a while and then vacuum it all up.. I add essential oils like lavender to the bicarb which works a charm! Kisses from Cape Town, South Africa XX
And if there’s a smell of mildew let it sit in the UV rays of the sun for 6 hours…does the trick!
@@tinathene yes, i thought they would hang it over the terrace to do the trick.
Yes it hurts to see that toxic smelling Febreze being sprayed on that nice carpet
Febreze is a temp fix...go with the bicarb. May have to use a couple of times.
Plenty of commercial carpet cleaning puts them on well drained surfaces and has a figurative river running across it until that runs clear... Temperature and detergent work too but keeping those separate is less risk to the colours
Kudos to Dan and Kirstie for all their hard work in the moat, which does now indeed look splendid.
Being good looking on top of their other qualities is a job requirement at the chateau 😁
Dan and the gang did such a beautiful job on the moat!! Dan's footage of the château has it looking like something from a fairytale!
Can't wait to see the panelling going up. The chateau that size is in constant need of repair. A dedicated workshop for woodworking is a must.
Selmar has a workshop with all the tools needed to be the Chateau Tangoing Handyman !
The patrons paid for the workshop and it has been a great asset. Thank you patrons.
Great idea,let’s see it
So glad to see Amory again,hope to see more of him
Isn't Dan's drone footage just epic. It totally adds that 4th dimension to the space that Stephanie just can't cover loafing it around on the grounds. I love Dan's channel, and he's killing it with his daily vlogs, working crazily hard for his family's life and future. I had wondered why Stephanie wasn't covering the moat clear out, too, but now that makes sense she was away in Italy. Stephanie, that was great of you to treat Dan and Annaliese to a romantic night's getaway in Bordeaux! What a great boss!
What a handsome looking man.
Philip now has some competition in the "man bun" hair. Another handsome and talented addition to the Lalande team. What's not to like. Welcome Amaury and look forward to seeing you in the vlogs.
Ian is on a one man crusade for warmth.
Mummy and Percy needs to get to Laland.... btw Stephanie running is hilarious.
The estate of Lalande is turning into a Versailles of the South. ⚜️👏🏻
The Hunk has arrived!! Whoof Whoof! The transformation of the moat is A-MAZING! The Grounds are looking more spectacular as time goes on! Love it!
Just when you thought the Chateau Diaries couldn't get any better! So incredible to see things go from strength to strength.
Dan’s drone footage here is spectacular! Teamwork makes the dream work! Stephanie’s father wouldn’t recognize the place and would be so proud of what she has accomplished in just one year! Can’t wait to see things this time next year! Kirstie is such a fab addition to the team! 🔥
I love the soft colors of the newly cleaned rug in your boudoir. The mixture of people coming and going is lovely. Your handsome cousin, Jerry with his big heart, Phillip pitches in quietly, and, Hanni is a darling pixie. Ion is reliable, Dan has morphed into the everything man plus a lovely wife and adorable sons, and Kirsty who is a charming hard worker. I always feel a bit sad when others leave, but then the new crew and visitors arrive. Stephanie, your vlogs should be number one in the world.
Oh, definitely they should be number one in the world. When Stephanie posts a new one, I pounce. :-)
I have watched every chateau diaries since no 1 and the transformation of LA Lande is extraordinary. It was always lovely but now is looks super cared for. What a lot of work but so worth it.
The patrons have paid for the restoration and the Vlogs for so much else. The contractors are so hard working and most have Vlogs of their own.
Stephanie and Michael Petherick were geniuses and survivors to give us this wonderful journey to share. Thank you.
Is Amoury her cousin on her mom or dad’s side?
How much is going on in this vlog, I simply cannot believe how lovely the walled garden is and now with plenty of water the sky is the limit. Kirsty is such a good sport with those cheeky men, what a team. Lalande is really alive these days and now on to building works inside. Great entertainment.
n ian the builder in the interior...supremo
This was fantastic! Loved seeing Hani and Scotman back then seeing Amaury again after a long absence. I’m happy for you. The drone shots from Dan are amazing and just a different perspective than we normally get. The moat looks so tidy and the shot under the bridge was 👌. I’m glad the shot of unearthing that boat was included. Every vlog is just so good. Thank you Stephanie for your hard work organizing everything and taking us along for the ride. Without you (and your Patreons) none of this would be happening.
Stephanie - I think, with the arrival of your handsome cousin, you might just find that you have many more subscribers! 😉
Oh yea
First shirtless thumbnail with cousin will get a million views.
Besides something that the cousin would find disrespectful of his own masculine agency, vlogs with shirtless men or scantily clad women would make this channel lose its freshness and charm because it would just be another way to titillate the senses. There is so much of that now in the world: so unoriginal, so banal. So cheap.
@@monsterlisa3167 I have read about people with no sense of humor, but until today I never ran across one. I suspect the moniker of "Monster Lisa" is very accurate in your case, but I hope that is not too banal of me to mention.
Seeing Vlog 23 stopped me from saying anything for a while as even Stephanie in a swimsuit has been used. It is just when the major of comments get to be about appearances and we start to get fat shaming, personal attacks and people comparing manliness over the last four Vlogs, some people are losing their sense of humor and kindness. Please Iet's just find something else to comment on.
Mummy will be happy the drip system is running in the garden. Moat looks fantastic. 👍🌟
kudos to that water fix fella.. major fix.sorry i've forgotten your name...love your deadpan sense o humour....n the tattoed tree fella who's doing massive stuff with tree care.
Matt in the garden and moat. Nick the Tree Man. I forget Nick's son's name.
30 thousand it should be 50 thousand,keep it up Dan, well done 🥰🐝🦋🌻
Kirsty is like a fire goddess with that flame thrower!
Fire goddess Kirsty!
I love seeing people pulling together, & working together on a common cause. Kudos to the moat crew! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I keep hoping we get to hear about mischief Stephanie got up to when she was young!😂. Maybe Amauri can tell us!!🤔😂
and the mischief Amauri was up to!
Amazing how much you have together accomplished. The difference in the 18-months since I started watching with the Quarentine Diaries. Congratulations to you all... and to the Patrons who help fund it.
Welcome Amaury! Additional help and eye candy for Lalande. Win-Win!
I must add kudos to Ian the contractor / carpenter, just phenomenal work, so fast! And of course Dan, Kirstie & the moat crew, Selmar, Ians, forester... all the LA Landers... AMAZING!!
Love the DanCam footage. The moat looks stunning!
How handsome is cousin Amaury. Looking forward to seeing more of him, I remember how charming he was last visit. Thanks for the fantastic vlog. Hugs to you all from lockdown in Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 🤗 ❤
Welcome to your gorgeous cousin, I can't wait to see him transform the Grand Salon with that amazing paneling you bought. It's going to be beautiful! I think you need to keep him there permanently lol 😍
Yes I agree
Adding dans drone footage just elevated your videos!! It really gives a sense of the land and grandeur of the chateau.. Please consider using drone footage more. Especially when doing your chateau tours!!
That is amazing! Welcome home Amaury!
💕Dan’s worth his weight in gold a diamond for all the work he does💕He is a very hard worker who can put his hand to anything he does coz he’s Not afraid of trying new things💕
Stunning footage of Chateau de Lalande showing the clearing of the moat. Meeting Amaury, he's very handsome!!! What Dan has done with the area around the fountain is amazing. The planting makes the entrance standout, as it should.
I am impressed by all the work going on there . The moat looks wonderful . I never really thought about maintaining a moat before . It involves a lot of hard work . The chateau is getting more and more a true castle appearance . Please keep up the good work . looking forward to what happens next !
What A JOY, once again, thank You SO much!! 💛💕💛 Yes, Dan is an absolute gem, also, he couldn’t get nicer job surcomstances, I think! 😂 And Kirsty… what a power-woman!! 💪💪
Dan is worth more money, he's transformed and is continuing to transform the grounds. They look amazing!!
Dan just Vloged that 90% of the tomatoes plants died. All the rain didn't help, and it had blight. A Farm to Table expert might be fun to contact to up the amount of food produced in the garden for the Chateau next year.
Amaury, he has a beautiful name , I think I read somewhere that it means work power ! That would be suitable ! Great to see the restauration starting , be strong Amaury , we'll be climbing the restoration mountain with you here in the other side of the screen !
Try not to slobber, I mean drool. Lol
@@omaum8410 I'm not slobbering, the man has ahead very difficult job and I'm trying to give him support ! I try to stay in the positive side of things at Lalande .
The Chateau is looking magnificent! Can't wait to see the panelling go up and Nati's apartment!
Stephanie should plant some Water Lilies in the motte.
Dan and Kirstie did a wonderful job on the moat. Great team!
And Matt
It's hit me once more how much progress has happened in only a year! I appreciate it all, but I'm so excited to see what Lalande will look like this time next year😁🏰🌻💕
The chapel, the terrace and the tower next!
I love this sort of speculation. At some point in the distant future, a time-lapse of the changes would be so cool (watched one of these for a 2 year rebuild in Spain). The facade and new gardens will be the final huge difference...amphitheater...lake...island...mill...pool...sunroom dining off the kitchen...what else? Yeah, so many changes. I have a funny feeling the tower was worked on for British television show the last few months.
I much prefer the videos just at LaLande, watching the work and restoration going on with such interesting people. Throw in some brocante visits here and there with all that that inspires and I’m happy.
Avani Green: I have been watching since March 2020 so am no newbie. I am English so might not be so desirous to view big old rich posh houses as others: they tended to be built with some dodgy money, by and large. Most of the glorious English estates were built with money made from colonial slavery, for example, and the European ones likewise. Hence the French Revolution. I was just stating my preference because I really enjoy seeing the multi-dimensional life at Lalande, that’s all - the restoration/working side of things rather than other smart chateaux, and would like to see more.
My aunt and uncle are English and loved Country Estates their whole lives. The bigger the better. My uncle collected and sold country style antiques. They didn't travel abroad like their daughter. Where as my English father loved biking, camping, history and ruins (Romain, Abbys, etc). My father and aunt grew up in York and survived the bombing of WW II which explains a lot for both points of view. Preserve the work of the artisan in chapel, church, Cathedral or Estates. Enjoy travel and cultures of the world. Study History and stop repeating the same issues again and again. All that Stephanie has shown us is fantastic from visiting Vietnam to the Castle next door. Plus we get to hang out with artists, artisans, workers, and thinkers on holiday or in the moment of creation. It is like a grand salon in Paris in centuries past with Castle attached.
caroline gooder : I agree. I am from York too btw
Emma Miller : eh? Not sure how you think my view is polarised. I think Stephanie is great and I have been following her vlogs for a long time.
You Jarvisses sure are a handsome blonde bunch. Can’t wait to see what magic he is going to work on the panelling. And I feel inspired. Me and my creme brulee burner are going at the dandelions in my front yard tomorrow.
Dandelion salad is my favourite. Its a cure for cancer. Mmmm dandelion tea and wine. So sad most only see it as a weed.
That’s just made me laugh ( creme brûlée burner) 😂
@@omaum8410 if one is making such large claims, you better be sure to add a reputable source in that, so that indeed you don't get someone killed. (Cause they've been convinced by people like you, that want to help, I'm sure, that they don't need all the heavy treatments the doc is giving them, cause all they need is a little dandelion juice, right? That's what someone claiming to know said on the Internet.) So I politely request that you provide a good study, from a reputable source, with a blind test that show without reasonable doubt it has a significant and repeatable (under controlled scientific supervision and environment) positive effect, larger then the effect of a similarly administered placebo. And if you can't provide any evidence for any of it, then I suggest you never dare risk someones life like this again, at least be gracious enough to add a "don't stop or start any treatments without consulting your oncologist, this is an old wife's tale and have not been scientifically proven". The only reason I'm not cussing you out right now is i choose to believe you were trying to be helpful or consoling, but you were so far off in "this is so fucking dangerous rhetoric/territory without any form of proof or source or study" that you may have just killed someone with your reckless behaviour. And I don't care if you had cancer and find drinking the thing helpful, cause that is not what you said. You stated- as it stands- that dandelion juice BY IT SELF can cure cancer, what cancer you ask, there was no clarification so that would mean all of them, RIGHT?! And all that without a way for them to see if you are telling the truth, ya know why thats dangerous? Cause someone that scared don't really think clearly and can denial their way into thinking a "quick fix" would do it for them, they may believe things with way laxer evidence or even fairytales of this and that, because they want to believe it you see. So please stop disrespecting all the people we know that we've lost, by making more, do you hear?
Welcome! Can’t wait to see your work in the Grand Salon.
Lalande looks immaculate! So happy for you Stephanie!
This was a brilliant recording. I love the moat clearing music and when it panned out over the chateau....fabulous. Brilliant. Lovely rug Phillip x
Just stunning drone footage of the Chateau and grounds! Kirstie is just so great, I love her personality, she really is a very sweet hard worker, always a smile on her face...with her cute dimples! Can't wait to see what your cousin Amaury does with all the restoration work. Stephanie the people you have at Lalande are phenomenal! Take really good care of yourselves, stay safe! Much love and appreciation Kathy x (Ontario, Canada)
Eye candy for the masses ... Welcome to our viewing pleasure sure hoping for xtra warm weather .💃
Well said!
I'd put a board on the boat and lay down staring at the sky as I floated around the moat. lol Loved this vlog. Thanks!
Your cousin is gorgeous 🥰😋 The mote is so beautiful now" Looks amazing very proper👌💞 Mummy is jumping up and down Permanent Running water in the garden" yaaaay Stephanie 💃
Welcome Amaury..... lots of lovely projects ahead no doubt. Ian, Dan and Kirsty really get stuff DONE! What a wonderful team. xxx
Kirstie what a worker
You are truly blessed with all the people who help restore Lalande Thank you very much for sharing
i cried during this episode. outstanding, just outstanding.
Amaury fait l’unanimité des commentaires 😄 … les propositions seront nombreuses 😄 ! Ian fait un travail remarquable d’isolation !! Hâte de voir la suite des travaux ! Dan et Kirsty sont aussi très appréciés pour le nettoyage des douves !!! Quelles nouvelles pour le projet du lac ?? Les couleurs du tapis me semblent bien ternies 😔 non ? Hanni et Gérald font une paire d’amis bien joyeuse 😀. Merci pour cette vidéo. À bientôt ! 🌸🌸🌸
Wow! Dan and his Team have made such a great job of that moat and all the gardens. The gardens are just transforming how your chateau looks - the fountain garden especially. GO Dan!
Good move Steph inviting your swoon worthy adorable cousin to the chateau 👍 Your KZhead channel following just expanded with a younger audience. All of you are so adorable. Greatest group of people in one spot. Bon Voyage to Italy and New York 💕
Now that cousin knows he has a bed, he’s much more relaxed. Good for him.
Wow the Moat looks amazing , weirdly,have no idea why but seeing it like that made me tear up. Lalande is being rejuvenated and its a beautiful thing to see 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰
Lalande is one of a kind! The drone shots show how beautiful the surroundings and environment around the Chateau look. What a great place to build such a great community!
So Stephanie one of the greatest blessings for you was hiring Dan the Gardener to spruce up LaLande. A jack of all trades and master of them all and Amaury added comedian to that list. The moat sure looks wonderful and I bet the fish are happy too!! Was fun seeing everyone so excited to see Amaury show up, gosh driving 13 hours is quite a feat. Your love for your Chateau rubs off on everyone there and it shows. So uplifting and fun to watch.
I'd LOVE an update video about ALL the chateau changes in the last year. It'd be such an interesting video to do once a year 😲😁
I was thinking the same thing. So much has changed!
This was fascinating. How heartwarming it is to see this chateau in such capable, devoted hands. I hope I can visit some day!
Yay! So happy to see Amaury - and wowza - not sure who is more handsome, your cousin or Philip!! xoxo Kudos to Kirsty and Dan for the massively impressive job on that moat - and the wonderful magic you've done to the grounds!
Dan really is a miracle worker!!! And I’m so excited to see the projects Amaury does during his time at Lalande!!
Bonjour Stephanie and all at LaLande. The job you have done lately is absolutely amazing !! The best team ever for sure. I am sure that all the people that support all those projects by giving money are wonderfully happy to see the huge progress and how beautiful everything is getting so fast. Again, great job, team !
What you and your team have accomplished the past year is simply amazing...I am in awe! Congratulations to you and everyone a La Lande...true teamwork!!!
Love your cousin's name, Amaury. Never heard this name before and must look it up and see what the meaning of his name is, as it sounds like it would be very special? He is very handsome.Seems very nice. o many new things seem to be on the horizon and everything is looking so very grande at the Chateau de La Lande I really do care, and a, interested and anxious to see how things are going to go next and all of the great times everyone has when together. I think so many wonderful and beautiful people seem to be drawn to La Lande! It is all meant to be.
It’s an Old French name you hear once in a while, but also it always reminds me of the Fitzgerald’s semi-autobiographical novel « This Side of Paradise ». Scott named the protagonist Amaury.
@@joysfairclough Thank you, Joy..
I love the Chateau Diaries! I really liked when Stephanie walked up to her cousin at the moat and when he answered her....smoke came out of his mouth!!! Or, I thought so. hahaha (I too am a smoker) I laughed! Love love love Chateau Diaries! The paneling is going to look amazing!! I will be watching!
He was clearly hiding his ciggie behind his back.
Vaping?
All of you need to be congratulated with the hard work and effort being done. The transformation is outstanding... ❤🇦🇺
2 things from me Stephanie. 1 - your editing skills are now seamless, inserting different sets of footage is so entertaining so Thankyou fir your hours of hard work and 2 - the Gardening team are doing an epic job of the grounds and that Moat!!! Wow an amazing job, it looks beautiful 😍 ♥️
It is mind blowing to see the progress of the court yard , will love to see more of the progress of the interior so looking forward to that , A fan from Canada
Your love of friends and family is genuine, beautiful!
What hard work on the moat! Congrats to the whole team that worked sooooo hard! Well done! It's amazing what a team of only a few can accomplish in a few days....or mice when the cat's away....;) I'm looking forward to seeing what wonders Amory will be tool....hopefully we get to see him in action.
Dan and Kristy done a amazing job❤⭐😎
Amazing and hard job of clearing the moat - bravo - what a difference - looks amazing. A big 👍 for Ian too - he works non stop too.
A wonderful vlog. So nice to meet your cousin Amauri. Can't wait to see what magic he works in the grande salon. Love the Dan footage of the moat. What a fantastic job in the moat and gardens. Stephanie you have a wonderful team helping you restore this beautiful chateau. Your chateau ghost was true to his word of helping you by drawing the right people to LaLande to help restore it. May it always be that way. Until next time 😍😘
I forgot how funny Gerald can be , "don't you dare show this to your mother"
So happy to see Gerry and Mummy on the same vlog again. Hanni reminds me of a little tinker bell! Things are getting so exciting again.
I was thinking the same thing!! Would make an amazing Halloween costume!!
Ending on that magnificent drone footage of La Lande is great! The place has greatly improved over the last few years. Thank you for letting us see the changes. Welcome cousin.
How kirsty kept her balance when the boat was rocking was quite something!!!! She's a good sport and hard worker. She's a good 'right hand man' to Dan. Great girl.
Kate W called her Fire Goddess
