- Revel in glorious French interior design in my favourite hotel in France, La Mirande. I'm incredibly lucky to be able to stay there and to meet the owner, Martin Stein, a man who has inspired me to look at the interiors of my own chateau with a fresh eye and renewed enthusiasm...

Ah Stephanie, this has to be one of the finest hotels in the world! Every inch a work of art and utter beauty.
What a lovely sensitive & talented man Martin is.
I have a feeling that their business is going to go up greatly when the pandemic is over. Can’t wait to hop on a plane, again, for France.
Vino No one is making you watch it.
Precious child - you are a gift of monumental proportions to planet earth! Your sweetness and deep love for the worlds of architecture, art and fabric brings joy indescribable to us all!!!!! THANK YOU
Agree
Agree!
I agree! I came to this channel just to see the Chateau but stayed because of the magical loving friendship and comradery.
what guff you wrote
That is what I wanted to say, thank you for putting it so brilliantly 💐
I adore the footwork on the floors you are a magician with a camera Stephanie x
I loved and appreciated your walk across the different floors.
Fabulous. One revelation after another, ceilings to walls to windows to floors. There will be a rush for "old glass", employing the "reverse" pattern of upholstery and curtain fabric, toile "faux silk", sewing together the border fabric, etc. What a great interview. Mr. Stein's attention to detail is so inspiring and humbling. The eye of an artist combined with the training of a scientist. I am so taken with the colors. Thank you, Stephanie. A visit to La Mirande is now on the post-Covid dream list.
Haaa ! Totally , I was literally scrambling to take mental and physical notes! Mr. Stein is a remarkable man with an eye for detail. The technique of the floors floored me. Creaks are important darn it.
This hotel is truly magnificent. I feel like I am within a huge stage set. The work done to make it so beautiful is just a real labour of love. His parents must be so very proud.
This video is professional quality. Yet you produced it all yourself with someone else holding the camera. Your descriptive verbal skills are excellent. The video of you walking on the different flooring was a treat. Amazing. You can do anything.
Wildflower wind A girl and her mummy! That should be the title of Stephanie’s new production company. What she has produced with an iPhone and no technical training is incredible! Hollywood studios would spend thousands of dollars and countless production workers and hours to write, film, edit and design such an amazing episode but for Stephanie, just “A girl and her mummy”! Bravo!
@@tory5325 I agree 200 % 👌✨

Stephanie is AMAZING 👏 😍 ❤ 💖 BRILLIANT
Stephanie this is outstanding. Your skills as a researcher, producer, narrator and interviewer have gone from strength to strength. La Mirande is extraordinary and beautiful, and your engaging exposition of it should be very welcome to the proprietors. Charming and impressive, (and I am not given to superlatives). 🇦🇺
Just had a look at the La Mirande website and was amazed that the cost to stay was not as extravagant as I thought it would be considering it is a Michelin star. The website also has details of each room (room numbers shown) and photos of wallpapers etc.
Today's vlog has captured the amazing eye for detail and true craftsmanship that a big budget can buy or dream!!
You consistently produce such high quality videos.......... fantastic narrating skills and so educational. Remember to book TIME OFF so you don't become exhausted.
Everybody she comes into contact with now seems to be riding on her coattails and creating their own channels but none of them have her charming personality or talent for storytelling.
@@marlification I was thinking that today as well. Selmar are relaxing and I thought Marie's would teach me more on how to do floral arrangement but I believe it's being reserved for patrons now. It's becoming hard to keep up with subscriptions so I may just watch Stephanie, Michael and Selmar and then my reg channels prior to chateau interest lol
@@barbibutton9619 I think Stephanie should be the only one vlogging from Lalande. It's her home and everyone else are guests or volunteers. I don't think it's fair that others are trying to profit off her success.
@@marlification I don't get the impression she feels that way. She's opening up the chateau, sharing her world and supporting others. She was the one who encouraged Michael to start his vlog.
@@jille9650 I'm not referring to Michael. His channel is about his own family's chateau renovation and I subscribe to that too.
It was a special treat to meet Mr. Stein and hear how this beautiful building was recreated.
The sequence with the various flooring was just exquisite. You’re video skills are really becoming cinematic.
Was just about to write the same hahahs :)
Yes! Very creative! I loved that segment!
Yes, it was exquisite:-)
Love it
I was about to write the same also! 😄 So many magnificent floors. Sumptuous textures and tones
Mr Stein was a delight, knowledgeable, humble and charming. Such a gentleman.
At first I was skeptical that I'd make it through 43mins of a hotel tour. I was VERY wrong! I was hooked the first 5mins, and 43mins and 3 glasses of wine later 🍷 This is a stunning hotel and a beautiful example of restoration. Thank You Stephanie & Isobel for showing it to us 🤗
The craftsmanship is just exquisite.
Thank you Stephanie and Mommy for this memorable vlog.
France has a really golden nugget in Ms Jarvis! Stephanie, you are a wonderful communicator. You are a natural born influencer. Why? You are immersed in the things you love and your passion and positivity is contagious. Thank you for sharing your life, your mother, your brother, love of French country living, interiors, antiquities.... It never ceases to amaze me how comfortable you are at having La Lande full of people. I know you are going to do a wonderful job on your apartment. If only you knew how many people have been helped by you during lockdown. Thank you!
This has to be one of my favourite videos on this channel.
The hotel is unbelievable beautiful. So thoughtful and unique. The techniques, the woodwork, the amazing use of fabric. It's a true gem.
What an honour to have a tour by the owner. Wonderful man! Thank you so much :)
I was afraid he would be stuffy but not so. He and Steph just flowed through conversation so naturally
@@barbibutton9619 Yes, he has a lovely humbleness. We all know he has the financial background to pull such a project, but he doesn't show it in any way.
A great host, great vision and a truly mesmerizing outcome!
This was MAGNIFICENT! Beyond opulent, rich, and beautiful- yet refined. Not gaudy whatsoever. I can imagine myself ordering at the bar, maybe a gin and tonic, and sitting in the alcove looking out to the historic buildings or into the courtyard. The corridors themselves make me want to pull up a table and have biscotti and espresso or affogato within them. This is one for the memory bank, Stephanie! I hope to visit here someday. Thank you and the entire team for creating this and teleporting me to La Mirande in Avignon for half an hour. It will now be on my list of places to visit and I will check that box someday! ~ Maxximo Morabito
Fantastic vlog. The beautiful fabrics takes ones breath away. Thank you Stephanie.
The attention to the smallest detail was apparent. And, what was apparent to this viewer, not all framed objects d'arte where exactly aligned, conveying a feeling of a comfortable, not so fussy, opulence. The blown glass used throughout is another detail that takes the mind to another place in another time, or dimension.
You inspired us viewers too. Thanks
I totally agree!
What a lovely man Martin is, he obviously is very dedicated to the restoration of his hotel.
As I have said before, you and Michael have single handedly probably done more for French Tourism than anything done by the French Tourism Board (if such a thing exists). This was an excellent vlog.
@Yol Maiv I'm certain that many people who had absolutely no intentions of visiting France will now consider it. Especially after Covid.
I would imagine France has a tourist board 🙄🙄🙄
The painting you admired at the 21 minute mark was something that caught my eye, also. I think the placement on that wall is what is really striking. It's a window wall and there is a window in the painting, but it's almost like you're looking into the next room--a hidden room--where she's sitting by the window. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it well, but it really is intriguing.
Stephanie, I can't express in words how much I enjoyed this vlog. It was so well done that I wouldn't be surprised to see it on a documentary channel. Your knowledge and your demeanor in front of a camera just says professionalism all the way. It wasn't until the end that I realized what a skilled camerawoman Isabelle is. She is amazing. Did she do all the filming or was someone else filming too?
I´m speachless about this glorious hotel - have to visit it one day absolutely! Lots of Greets from Germany to all at Lalande.
Beautiful and exquisite hotel and I think it gets even more beautiful when you hear all about the little details, like the old glass, the paintings and the fabrics. Thank you for these sunday-video’s Stephanie and Isabelle.
Wow! I'm blown away by La Mirande, curtains, wallpaper, and pictures...oh, my! Thank you so much, Stephanie and Mummy for this. HugZ
Takes guts and conviction to use the reverse side of textile .. gosh! I guess we have to stop saying 'wrong' side.
Lovely episode Steph.
A visitor: "Perfection! Amazing! Stunning! Unique! One of a kind!"
An owner: "Hmmm.... Still so much need to be done, to improve. .."
Manifestation of a perfectionist in action.
Lucy Worsley, watch out! Stephanie, what a brilliant job with this vlog. Your interview style was excellent and it was so informative and a very special treat for those of us who still cannot travel and are dying to do so. And we mustn’t forget mummy’s excellent camera work! She really is quite good at it. Now that the garden is winding down she could pick up a few extra euros filming...there seems to be plenty vlogging activity going on! Good work girls!
Aaah, how exquisite was that? And can you imagine the hundreds of yards in beautiful fabrics throughout the hotel. I learned so much Stephanie and Isabelle-thank you, thank you. ❤️❤️
The absolute best in every possible way, have not been touched by the interior design of a house for a long time. But this takes my breath away
It’s always a pleasure to hear people talk on a subject which they have a genuine passion for, I look forward to seeing what inspiration you take from La Mirande into your own chateau! I particularly loved the use of old glass in the windows and picture frames, it really did bring them to life!
Stephanie and Isabelle, you outdid yourselves! What a magnificent tour.
Well thanks for another wonderful video - I've said it before but you're the best channel on youtube by far.
I liked the edit where she's walking on all the different flooring. Cool way to showcase all the diff styles.
Hello beautiful and good-sounding lady, I am from Afghanistan, I watch your videos every day and I enjoy it a lot, and your mother is also a very kind woman. Good luck.❤️
Really interesting gentleman. I love when people have this amount of passion and care for restoring old buildings.
I am always suprised by your amazing story telling skills. I could listen to you talk about a leaf for hours and still wanting more😄 You should start a podcast ❤️❤️
i love his very dry German sense of humor
I agree and I had to smile at the idea of Germans deliberately making something imperfect, like the glass. It must have been very difficult for them.
Yes
@@ccmarcum ha!! So true
He was so nice !! I would love to have you take him with you. LOL
Mummy did a great job with the camera in this one. I think this in my top three of your vlogs,soooo beautiful and informative.
That was wonderful! Just gorgeous! I agree, the painting of the lady on that gorgeous wallpaper...there’s just something about it! Perfection! Mummy did a fabulous job filming and Stephanie a fabulous job narrating! So glad the hotel allowed you to do this! If I’m ever in that area that is exactly where I will stay!
Oh wow! The wallpaper in the bathroom (looks like fabric drapes) is unbelievable! Thank you so much, Stephanie, for transporting me to Avignon and La Mirande! It is the most exquisite place with so much thought and care given to its decor and it was lovely to meet Martin, the owner. A very special vlog!
Ahhh I just love French home design. So beautiful.
Absolutely wonderful and thank you for the commentary Stephanie you’re so talented.
This hotel is like staying in an art gallery. So many details to see, I will never leave the hotel. Saw your vlog and now I see why you bought new shoes. Lol.... Much love from GUAM.
Stephanie, after just discovering the channel in the past 24 hours, I can't stop watching. Your talents, enthusiasm and fabulous family and friends have made LaLande a wonderland. Congratulations to you! Say hello to everyone there, especially your sweet, clever mom.
I really enjoyed this vlog. I loved the part where you were walking through the diferent floors... and the music...it is a very beautiful and romantic hotel. Thank you Sthepanie. Regards from México.
The background music is absolutely perfect!
Yes the music was soo fine ...what was this un stringquartetto from? 👋🏻💐💞
What a charming gentleman
wow the colours in the rooms and the old shimmering glass brought a vibrancy to the views from the window's and the colures in the old glass on the paintings/ etches. and the clever way they were hung i agree steff you stop and look at them. wow the hotel rooms are so lavishly decorated and so colorful. i didnt like the darkend room with no windows as like you steff i love colures
I love hearing the creaking of the floors. I need that mirror from the favorite room of guests! I'm trying to create a french farmhouse master bedroom!!!
My goodness this was the loveliest vlog! You are superb Stephanie and I am so grateful for your willingness to share knowledge and personal vacation time with us. Thank you immensely for these beautiful videos.
Stephanie, this vlog was an illumination for me! I am a uni student of history of art and I have to choose the topic for my thesis. I had my mind on all sorts of things from fabrics to ceramic to forniture of the XVIII century, but this beautiful video made me realize interior design is what can make all my passions into one! Thanks for the inspiration and for all the work you put into these vlogs, they are amazing!
The shiny gold against the matte purple is a wonderful way to play with finish contrast.
Thank you Stephanie, for a short while I was transported into a magical world.
You should invite mr. Stein to Lalande, I'm sure he would love to see what you have done there too 😁
This is the best history/styling lesson I've experienced in 50 years ! Fantastic !!!
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
What a beautiful episode! I enjoyed and learned a lot. Thank you Stefanie, you’re doing a great job! Warm greetings from Belgium
Love that the walls and curtains don't clash
🦋🦋🦋 Wow such a dreamy and incredibly inspirational hotel. Stephanie and Isabelle , thank you so very much for sharing your visit with us. Truly appreciated and enjoyed every second of this video 🌻🌻🌻☺️☺️☺️
To think I walked right past the facade of this hotel 12years ago, no clue to the extraordinary interior! Beautiful vlogg, opens our eyes to whole new realm of inspiration and wonder.
Ah, of course the favorite painting is the spirit of Stephanie reposing at her private room's window at La Lande with the magnificent Thor outside looking up and adoring his mistress. Wonderful intelligent tour reminiscent of Sister Wendy sharing her great knowledge and insight of great works of art. Thank you so very much.
The owner was so very kind to show his hotel and to tell you sooo many design tips and tricks. I learned so much and am thinking as your tour continues where I can use these ideas. I think I have enjoyed this Sunday the most.
BravA Stephanie! I love the way you have filmed all the floors in a sort of running collage !!!! 💛🌹🏰
After watching this amazing and most interesting vlog, I’ve now put visiting and staying at La Mirande on my bucket list of places to visit and stay one day. Thank you Stephanie for your inspiration in all things interiors and how lucky were we to have a guided tour by the owner. Thank you Martin. In my head, my bags are packed, my flight booked and my room reserved (although in reality I know this won’t occur for a few more years) 🧳 ✈️🏨
Maybe create the "purple wall arrangement" with the "sconce that Michael Potts gave you with three etchings and put the three owners small silhouettes/or pictures in the three frames on the sconce...THIS WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL IN THE "GREETING AND/OR THE MAIN ENTRANCE HALL"..Just suggestions and it would be a "first view" of the three owners...love this vidoe
Watching this video while sipping my white rose tea with madeleines ...i felt as if i were there with you,Stephanie :) Thank u for introducing this beautiful hotel to us. I hope someday i be able to visit this hotel...many Love from Indonesia
MAGNIFIQUE!
I was shown magnificent French paneling stored in a basement, 10:32 architectural salvage from a French chateau that had been demolished. The antique, hand carved paneling, of the highest quality, was a work of art, to be being installed in someone's offices, or a residence, I forget which, but the fact is that it was "saved" gave me a great feeling. Another set of paneling has been saved and moved to it's third installation. The buildings may fall, but the paneling lives on.
Wow! This was educational and inspiring. I love the wall fabric of room 29 with the purple ribbon floating throughout.
Hi, Stephanie! Thank you with all my heart for creating yet another marvelous video! I am so ecstatic to watch this new episode as I sip on moringa tea and enjoy the day. Your content truly makes my days happier and brighter. I’m so grateful! The day must be concluding in France now. I hope you enjoy le soir, dîner, and sleep well and early. Keep being splendid you! Bonne nuit, Mme. Mystère! ~ Maxximo Morabito
I have absolutely no business in Avignon but now I cannot wait to go just to stay at this hotel! I fully share Stephanie's fascination, what a gem ❤️
Thank you for this incredible tour 🥰
love the edit of you walking over a collection of beautiful flooring. super creative. great vid!
I agree on your favourite room, I thought so too in 15:18
Love it love it! I have visit Avignon because my friend lives there. Never even knew what was behind the scenes of this hotel. Thanks for sharing.
STUNNING! Interesting concepts, techniques, vision demonstrated. Stephanie's home has similar vision and attention to detail. It is obvious when I see other updated château that end up looking like "vanilla" magnolia pallete.
Thank you.
My old bedroom in a 120 year old home had huge cabbage head roses. It was a pleasure to wake in that room.
Dear Stephanie, I would like to request a vlog. Could you please at a later time do a tour of Fountain Bleau? I would love to to see the interiors of that palace and with your knowledge you could tell us the history and show us the textiles. I know the Kings of France and the Napoleons lived there and I've seen bits and pieces, but it's not enough for this lover of French design. Think about it, maybe? Loved today's video.
I love the simple mirrors in the baths adhered by simple brackets. It’s how my mother hung mirrors. Also love the ceiling decor and original floors. I always thought old wavy glass was damaged but now I see it differently.
Drooling over the decor. Really. I am.
Just splendid, I love all fabrics and wallpapers, the man is a best interior designer naturally born. The paintings and everything are perfect. I wish I could live there.
this place manages to be sumptuous, yet cozy. just gorgeous 😍(BTW, your mom is a fabulous camerawoman - such great, steady footage!)
It's gorgeous I love the use of the borders.
This was fabulous! I love the idea of using old glass on the paintings and etchings. Definitely going to remember that trick!
This was a fantastic video! Absolutely loved the tour of this gorgeous Avignon hotel. The stunning details, wallpapers, curtains, everything. Thanks, Stephanie, for another peep into the treasures of France. 🇫🇷 🏰❤️
Stephanie, you have no idea how much your videos are inspiring me. I am so grateful 😘 What a joy!
You are such a gracious person Stephanie! Sharing all these beautiful places with us. Oh, I didn’t want this to end! It’s so inspirational. Thank you.
Beyond beautiful. Herr Stein and his interior architectural designer are ingenious. And to have the designs executed locally is fantastic. Thank you!
🙏🏻💗❤️💗🙏🏻
Your insight into these vlogs is wonderful, you make things so interesting, you would make a great interviewer for the BBC or anywhere, you put so much work and understanding into each subject , truly a gift , but we like you right at Lalande
Stephanie you are such a great presenter, professional, and a joy to listen to! This was very informative and beautiful. Please do more. Love for you and your lovely mummy
Grateful for this very special tour. I can safely say that I could never afford to stay here, so this peek inside is thrilling! Thank you!
Yes it is very expensive but the French patrimony is honored by this restoration.
Stephanie do a great job in her Château de Lalande. I hope she will be rewarded by a Legion d'honneur medal. It is the minimum France could to a person who save a part of the French history like Stephanie in Lalande
This Hotels Decoration is magnificent!
Thank you so much for this superb tour. So many glorious wall papers and curtains. The attention to details in every room and bathroom makes every room a jewel box to be in. This place is magical. I feel privileged to have been able to visit La Mirande ; such beauty !
All I can say is BRAVO!!!!!
I LOVE that Martin Stein abandoned medicine to serve beauty. LOVE.
Thank you Stephanie, La Mirande is indeed beautiful beyond words, a very special hotel. I have used a few of the design ideas myself, framing the walls with a border that matches the walls - not my idea, straight from the wallpaper book - it was midnight blue with tiny pink and blue flowers, it looked wonderful and made what was a small room look much larger. The hotel also has the most beautiful floors, the timber design is my dream floor, reminds me of a beautiful restaurant in New York.. The Box Tree... sadly now gone. I'm so glad this has given you new ideas for Lalande. 🏰🦘
Bringing new meaning to footage. Sorry, couldn't resist. Loved those shots!
Now, that was forty-three minutes of a delicious treat! Words elude me...really, the comments have voiced my sentiments and more. Merci with a hug.
The floors!! (And your new shoes are so cute.) This was a beautiful video Stephanie. Thank you 😊
Amazing again Stephanie 😊that was fabulous 🤗i loved seeing the beautiful rooms and bathrooms, 👌💕💟
