ABOUT US:
Hello! I’m Vivienne, the châtelaine of a small 19th century neo-Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France, which I share with my delightful (and wonderfully funny!) husband, Simon, our daughter, and -whenever possible- lovely friends and family.
This is not our first chateau! 23 years ago, we bought a much larger castle nearby, which we loved with all our hearts. However, nearly 2 decades, many happy memories, countless renovations, and several small fortunes later, we made the very difficult, empty-nesting decision to downsize. With great luck and perseverance, we found our current petit château, which we are now decorating and updating with love, humour, comfort, and -of course- antiques and art!
We adore France and its many unique facets: its people, culture, landscapes, wine, food, art, and history. We also love being surrounded by châteaux, both public and private, which we can explore together! After 20 years here, we have learned many things about living in France, renovating châteaux, and appreciating the extraordinary riches surrounding us. We originally decided to make these videos as a way to share our lives with our loved ones worldwide during the pandemic lockdowns. However, we soon realised that many others are at home alone, and it is our privilege to open our home to you, our new friends. We hope you will join us on our adventures in this exceptional location, and we look forward to sharing a little Château Love!

You Love people, history and life in France along with your wonderful husband and family and friends. Great job on this vlog as well. I know it meant a lot to Stuart and Patrick that you took the time to visit ❤.
She has a Heart of Gold . And Vivienne right when she said that Patrick and Stuart have good taste they really have done a beautiful job on there Chateau its just stunning was great to see it from different angle . The Entry Hall is stunning u were right to get them to do it up as its just so gorgeous . But every room i saw is Beautifully done . 🥰
@@predatornz.5493so nice to see another follower from NZ 😀🇳🇿
I absolutely adore Patrick and Stewart. They, like you, are so genuine. No false pretense, no drama, just genuine loveliness.
Gosh what a wonderful time we had. You two are just absolutely wonderful. it is such a treat to see our chateau through your and Simon's eyes! After two years of renovations, we see the accomplishments but even more the projects ahead. I love the "No red wine on my salon"! We are looking forward to see o again soon! Chez vous! Your camera work is truly amazing. You capture things that I didn't really notice.
Thank you for being amazing!
You two are so, so incredibly lovely. And yes…chez nous! Thank you for the amazing hospitality, friendship and inspiration. A très bientôt, chères amis! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
@patrickjourneytothechateau8243 you have a beautiful Chateau and both of you have such a designers eye. If I lived closer than the US, I might be sneaking in to "borrow" the beautiful settee set you recently brought home.
@@okienana11 thank you so much ☺️❤️🥰
Vivienne is a true gem & a great friend to all!! Simon is a very kind gentleman!!
Two of my favourite people, Patrick and Stuart. The Chateau is huge, and I love what they have done so far, renovations take years, so always projects to do 😊
Just lovely. ❤ My partner and I had the pleasure of being the first guests to stay in the B&B room at Colombe, back in early May. In fact, I am the one that made the tiara for Patrick. Stuart and Patrick are wonderful people and fabulous hosts.
PS, I ordered a couple of prints from your website over the weekend. I can’t wait to get them. ❤
How lovely! You are so talented. We all had such tiara-envy! Do you take commissions? 🏰💖
I was so pleased when Patrick and Stuart became part of the circle of chateau friends. They are so talented, kind and welcoming. Their chateau is really turning into a palace with all their incredible talents making each space perfection.
Yes, it’s gorgeous and they work so hard. 🥰🏰💖
Vivienne, your voice has such a happy quality.
You are too kind! 🥰🏰💖
Vivienne and Simon, that was perhaps the best tour of Château de Colombe, which I have seen to date. Your hosts, Patrick and Stuart, are two of the most gracious and giving individuals, much like yourselves. They, also, serve a decent meal and dessert; one's taste buds certainly should be satiated. I also like Patrick's auction find, a reproduction of an Egyptian Pharaoh copied from the Musée du Louvre; Curtis Ryan Woodside would approve. 😂 Those gifted chairs sound like a perfect fit for your primary suite renovation, albeit with an upholstery project attached... but you're up to the challenge. All the Châtelains seem to aquire multiple skills along the way. Looking forward to your progress back at your own castle. Hugs and love 🏰
I always feel that the perfect chandelier/light fixtures in a room is like jewelry. Patrick and Stewart’s chandelier in the grand salon is perfect. ❤
Indeed! 🏰💖
Love Patrick and Stuart and their chateau. Such beautiful gifts as well. So happy you are friends and supportive of each other 😍😘
It was such a pleasure to see and appreciate their hard work and amazing skills. 🏰💖
It’s so sweet of you Vivienne to visit the other chateaux and you’re always happy and bring Joy to everyone!
You too Simon!❣️
We feel so honoured to be a part of this lovely community! Sharing it with you is a great pleasure. 🥰🏰💖
It was so nice to finally meet you, Tony and I both had a wonderful evening at the chateau. Your tour was lovely to watch, thank you. We hope to see you again soon.
Goodness…you two were such a highlight of our visit! We loved meeting you and only the next day truly appreciated the scale of the contributions you’ve made at Colombe! Well done. Meanwhile, Simon was very sad that he couldn’t watch the game final with you! Hopefully next time… 💖💖💖🥰🏰💖🏰💖🥰
Vivienne and your husband are beautiful souls.
Love seeing their chateau from another pair of eyes! I really want to stay in their beautiful pink room!❤
😘😘
What a beautiful chateau, with the most gracious chatelaines - thank you for the tour! 🫶
Such a pleasure. Thank you for joining us! 🥰🏰
Beautifully decorated, tastefully accessorized, and quite welcoming in style. Such talented gentlemen.
I agree! 🥰🏰💖
These new chatelains are fun to watch; they inject new life into the old castles. I know care & upkeep of these places is exhausting. The new spin on the decoration of each is fascinating. You all have lively imaginations. Thanks for sharing with us all.
Vivienne, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful weekend with your youTube friends. You have such a warm and wonderful way of making your chateau life fun and inviting. Although we've never met, I know in my heart that you and Simon would be wonderful friends! Keep the vlogs coming, Eric!
Thank you, Eric! You are a darling! 🥰🏰💖
@@ChateauLove You are very welcome and deserve compliments for the smile you never fail to put on my face!
The pink room has been self-designated MY ROOM. 😍
It's gorgeous! xxx
Love your most generous tour of Stuart and Patrick's beautiful Chateau Colombe. Very kind indeed.
Ah, Stuart’s wallpaper is wonderful.❤
Lovely tour, Vivienne! Your aesthetics are not dissimilar to those of Colombe - elegant and harmonious. Stephanie's chairs really suit both residences. How nice that you and Simon also got to meet Tony and Jane as well as Donna and Margaret...and Aiden, of course 🦮😄
It was one delight after another! Such incredibly wonderful people… 🏰💖
We love Stuart & Patrick. Such an amazing chateau. I'm so glad you were able to visit with them.
They are so lovely, as is their chateau! 🥰🏰💖
I’m so glad you visited Colombe! Lovely people should know each other! ♥️
Dear Vivienne, thank you, I watch Patrick and Stewart all the time, was nice to have a tour with you and Simon, you are such a sweetie and Simon is lovely, I watch you all time as well. x
Vivienne you and Stephanie are the most happy and vivacious vloggers ever! Love you both. What a beautiful Chateau! What great artistic eyes to details in Chateau Colombe,such fun to visit
Hi Vivienne and Simon, as you know I love your vlogs but this was my favourite as I adore Patrick and Stuart and the tour and commentary was just amazing.
You are so full of life and love and certainly brighten up everyone’s day with you and Simon’s combined artistic talents and your love of renovations and history. Thank you both for brightening up my day. 😘🇨🇮
It’s like the very old EF Hutton commercial. When Vivienne speaks, everyone listens. If she loves it…it’s perfect!!
Thank you for sharing you stayed with Patrick and Stewart I’m so glad you met Jane and Tony very special friend
I loved the pink daffodil chandelier. They really use pink in a lot of room and the pink peacock wallpaper ♡
Isn't it amazing how your journey on You Tube has progressed from when you first started - you keep it real and very interesting
What a lovely thing to say. Thank you! 🏰💖
Patrick and Stuart are the most sweetest people on RUclips
Thankyou for the tour lovely Vivienne ❤
It is always so much fun when the chateau family gets together! Thank you for taking us along!
What a wonderful visit and tour of chateau Colombe. Patrick and Stuart have worked so hard and have made some wonderful friends. Cant wait to see what Simon and you have been working on. Thank you for sharing. X
Vivienne, I'm so glad that you met Patrick and Stuart. Like you, they bring me joy. ❤
❤ from TX!
I love all of your channels and I love all of you. My extended chateau family. Thanks to Chateau Diaries for introducing us all to you all. Patrick and Stuart, along with Terry and Ash and yourselves, are definitely my top 3! ❤
I enjoyed the video with a tour of Chateau de Colombe. Your love of chateaus and history was evident in the video. I am pleased that Patrick and Stuart gave you the two chairs that you wanted. You are always so kind and generous, and you deserve to receive some kindness. Sincerely, Ralph Rocchiccioli
Such amn equisite Chateau and very talented people! Stuart and Patrick are such hospitable people and it is lovley how they took such time in showing thier chateau! When joining all of you I feel like I am part of the family of Chateau owners! My mind just blends right in and I find myself giggling right along with you . The 'Chandielrs ' in each toom was selected just as they needed to be and looked like they truly did belong in those special places! So beautiful, every detail was through out, and just seems that everythng blended so well together, Anyone would think they were orignal pieces that belonged there since day one!
Can just see how lovely the Chapel will be one day, and it really was cozy and intimately structured. Just a place where the family am sure, spent many hours even by themselves, during very trying and joyful times, during thier lives, praying for all to go well for them, as wel as for all those they knew.
Vivienne and Simon cannot ever say enough about you both and think so much of you, and love how Vivienne always has the right way to express herself. Simon is such a great sport! Can see that you both are perfect for each other! Can just imagine how lovely your wedding day must have been! You cherish any gift given and it is true Vivienne you are the most astonishing gift giver I have met. ( Well we have not really "met," lol but I feel like it as certainly have been watching you . Simon and Isabella uite a while now and truly am part of Chateau Diaries and do watch others as well. But mostly the two of you and of coourse Follwing Dan as he is renovating his fantastic chateau with quite a fabluous history behind it!
Lovely to meet the guests and the rooms for the guests were beyond perfect! The cute dog was so full of expressions! lol I hink he was a Terrier of a standard type perhaps? Well now can say I have added Chateau de Colombe to them all.
Thank you for sharing a wonderful visit to Chateau de Colombe and bringing true Chateau Love with you. Chateau de Colombe is gorgeous! Stuart and Patrick have excellent taste, they are lot of fun yet serious Chatelains. I love watching all of your channels and how generous you are to each other. I am so over the moon collecting your beautiful jewelry. Sending love from my ♥to yours♥.
I’ve been waiting for this video❣️Great job of sharing Stuart and Patrick home👍👏
I would love to attend a class on design taught by you ❤❤❤..you have great taste and you know how to point out details and make sense of them ..I watch their channel and only today I was able to truly enjoy the details of their decor because you kindly made it clear to us 🙏
I so agree with you. Vivienne has a way to show and explain things! I have to take a class with her. Isn’t she the best! ❤❤❤
You are so kind. It is such a pleasure to share these experiences. 🏰💖
You and Simon are so nice what a joy to meet you both
Dear Margaret, it was indeed our pleasure! Might we see you this weekend at the Marçon Classic? You are beautiful inside and out. 🥰🏰💖
Thank you for showing us around this beautiful french chateau ❤
Simon,what a handsome jacket. The cloth is very nice.👍
I so enjoyed this episode. I do watch all of your friendly chateaux owners. Love the closeness you all share. It truly is a genuine friendship which cannot be “put on”. Thank you for taking us along on your journeys. Makes me happy!🥰🇨🇦
love your shows this was a great tour merci
💖💖💖💖🏰💖🏰🏰💖💖
I never realised how lovely château de Colombe was
That was lovely, and it's good to see you with Patrick and Stuart. They are great guys, and they're doing such great work on their château. Thank you for this video, and the joy you take in life. I'm looking forward to seeing the further work you're doing at your own place.
Thank you! So happy to share these lovely experiences with you. 🏰💖
Vivienne, you are genuinely just the sweetest!
That was a great Tour of the Beautiful Chateau de Colombe i love how they have done up each room and the style they have managed to keep it in they both have such a good eye for Chateau Style and there love for Antiques . The dogs are so lovely . 🥰 😻
Thank you for sharing the lovely chateau of your genuine friends, Stuart and Patrick and I wish them well in renovating their beautiful surroundings. ❤😊❤
Wow! Patrick and Stuart have a stunning chateau and such incredible taste - both in design and food!!
So happy for you Vivienne that you ended up with 2 of the chairs you loved!!
Love from Mary in Southern California 💗
I just love this Chateau. Patrick and Stuart have done a magnificent restoration it is so elegant and tastefully decorated. I always feel less is more. I have to comment on the kitchen a chefs dream. We all know where people love to gather …. the kitchen. I have seen some Chateaus with such small kitchens when there are so many large rooms. Thank you for the tour. Ah to be young again and have the energy to come visit. ❤
I so enjoyed your tour of Chateau de Colombe.
it's great to see it through your eyes.
Patrick and Stuart have done a marvelous job.
Cant wait to see what you do with the chairs for your bedroom and the lovely pair of vases gifted to you.
Vivienne and Simon, thank you so much for sharing your lives with us. It is wonderful to have a glimpse into an entirely different world that just magically invites you to experience life in a chateau. It opens your mind to what is possible and spreads so much joy. ❤
Your home is a work of art. I saw many things you’ve done for the first time anywhere. Excellent. To say you have good taste is an understatement 😮
Well. How enjoyable was that!!!!! How lovely that you are making friends with whom you share a common interest. Plus...... how fabulous is that chateau!! Well done😊
Děkuji za prohlídku do zámku de Colomb . Sleduji každý díl a oba kluky Stuarta a Patricka miluji. Jsou to naprosto úžasní kluci a mají neskutečný cit a intuici pro rekonstrukci svého zámku. Fandím jim a držím jim oběma moc palce.
Just a lovely tour of Patrick and Stewart's Chateau, thx for sharing with us! Was so nice to see both of you ❤
I have to say, I love when you visit the other Chateau channels that I watch you give a great perspective of there homes that they seem to miss. Thank you@
Tres magnifies Vivienne, you put this tour together with Stuart and Patrick and all perfectly fine 🥂🥰
I loved this. I have followed Journey for a while! Great job. Patrick and Stuart are very special people! Like you!
Great Chateau tour. Thanks!
I love how their dog goes round with them. Xx
breathtaking tour 🏰- I regularly watch Journey to the chateau with Patrick and Stuart and 🐕🦺but lost the overview - this tour showing the rooms with all treasure details spot on was gorgeous - thanks so much Vivienne and Simon, your gifts are well deserved 👍, and seeing the patrons and Jane and Tony (in pink matching you) from Not quite a chateau channel (they helped so much) celebrating together with the creative chatelaines, the self created tapestry (Stuart) and paintings (also Patrick) show excellent artistry on top, merveilleuse, a grand tour - bravo 👏et merci beaucoup ❤❤❤❤

This is sooooo me. I loved it all.
So lovely to see you all together, I follow everyone and can't get enough of interesting content. The sun is shining so I'd better go outside and do something now. See you all soon.
Yes, I'm one of those who watches all of you, and it's so interesting to see when vlogs overlap. I feel like I know all of you! When you said something "was the bomb," I laughed because it was obvious how comfortable you felt with a fellow American. And thanks for the tour, because they haven't given one of the whole place recently.
I love watching Stuart & Patrick's channel. I just recently found it. I think their Chateau is perfect. 😊hello from 🇨🇦
Wonderful vlog!!
Such a great tour !! Thank you Vivienne.
