Bravo! I’ve renovated 2 old brick houses , so I know the taste and smells the despair and then the jubilation. You’re a powerhouse team with great vision and talents . Really looking forward to more project videos . Shine on !
Thank you so much. It is wonderful to speak to people who have gone through similar projects before. If you have any words of wisdom to share, please do :) Thank you for watching x
Thank you. We had some great helpers who all deserve credit too, but yes we are proud of the transformation and it has been a great home for us while we carry on with renovations in the main part. Thank you for watching x
The earlier look, was very scary. Excellent job to get that all done! Congratulations. You both are very fortunate to have had the help of your children. Especially the nod of approval from your cat! ❤️🌎❤️
The apartment turned out beautiful!!! I’m so happy that you have a lovely place to call home while the rest of the renovations are completed. I especially love the wooden work table in the kitchen. 💕
Super boulot le British!!! Bienvenue en France! On préfère nos voisin anglais qui restaurent notre patrimoine oublié que les Quatars. Bravo à vous et bon courage. Bienvenue en France chers voisin!
Merci beaucoup. Nous sommes en fait sud-africains et australiens de naissance mais nous avons vécu en Angleterre pendant 16 ans donc nous sommes voisins de la France depuis longtemps 😉
It is stunning what you all have accomplished with what was just a beautiful but shell remnant of a building-- so much hard work has brought a very old home back to life. Well done.
We have enjoyed your videos. Your hard work and dedication are paying off in spite of the obstacles you are facing. A testimony to your spirit. You have a living treasure. All the best to you from Springfield, Missouri
Thank you for watching and for your kind comments. The château is really a treasure to us and we are enjoying the journey, despite the obstacles. We hope you will continue to enjoy the channel xx
It’s an outstanding accomplishment that you achieved through this extraordinary time ... not many people have it them to rally themselves together and push forward. You should be very proud of your family!
Thank you for your kind comments Tony. It was certainly unusual times but it was great to have the distraction and something else to focus on besides the depressing news.
So many rich details were honored as you set about doing what you could during lockdown! A slowdown can be so good for getting into process, refining objectives. Really enjoyed your video. Keep on keeping on. :)
Yes, we do all our filming in landscape now but unfortunately earlier footage (before we created a RUclips channel) was for family albums and we did not pay attention to this. That is all we have now so working with that and moving forward all videos will be in landscape mode. Thank you.
Wow very beautiful, glad you kept the original house plan. Love to restore old homes. Amazing cozy home. Great job to you... you gave me some inspiration..
You have done an amazing job fixing it up so far. Sure hope you didn’t pay too much. What a reck it was and so much work. It will be beautiful in the end! BC Canada
@@chateaudecapelle2590 Indeed you are - the kind of memories and family togetherness that is irreplaceable, enjoy every minute of the precious, blessed journey, God bless you.
@@chateaudecapelle2590 That would be great if you can up the sound levels a wee bit. Brenda Gibbons signposted your VLOGs, so glad she did. Very best with your ambitions. You are making great headway and to do all this through lockdowns, with three small people in tow, and all the site hazards, is epic. Loving the interiors choices.
Yes, we will take care with the next video to speak louder and please provide us with feedback again. Thank you to Brenda for sharing our channel - it is wonderful when people like the channel enough to share with others. That is so kind and we really appreciate all the support. We hope that you will enjoy the journey x
I've just discovered your channel. I think its important for you to create a playlist. At the moment if you play the first video the second video doesn't come up automatically. If you create a playlist new viewers will be able to watch them in order.
Love your approach. Subscribed today. Look forward to watching your progress. Please check your sound though, I had a very difficult time hearing. So much so that I had to CC the video. I really do look forward to hearing and seeing your family in the future. Keep up the wonderful work. Wendy
Thank you very much and welcome to our channel. We hope you will enjoy it even more in the future. We are in the process of obtaining microphones so please bear with us. Hopefully the next video will be crystal clear 🙂
Just stumbled upon your videos via Brenda who has a huge interest in Chateau Lalonde -Stephanie Jarvis’s vlogs. Could you please use a wider camera lens? That way I can view you videos better! It all looks so interesting! Central Victoria Australia 🇦🇺😊
Hello Kerry and thank you for watching. We generally use landscape format now but in the beginning we were not contemplating a RUclips channel so the old footage is in the wrong format - sorry about this. Moving forward all filming will be in landscape mode. We hope you enjoy the journey with us x
Some mould yes but most of the old plaster was removed which helped. A bit of bleach here and there where it was not too bad. It is now a well ventilated warm space so no further problems to date.
Yes definitely. You will notice that other videos were taken in landscape format but with some of our older footage this is not the case. We took it primarily for family albums long before a RUclips channel was on the horizon :) Rest assured all future videos will be in the correct format. Thank you for watching.
Hello and thank you for the feedback. We realise this is not the best footage but unfortunately it is all we have from the 'early days'. We never planned to have a RUclips channel and this was simply taken for family albums. We thought to share it though for those who asked what the château looked like when we first arrived. The next video will potentially still have 'profile' format videos from old footage but we hope the audio will be better and will help to explain a bit about the improvements. The good news is that we have been taking footage in landscape format for the past 8 months, so moving forward it will be better.
Maybe instead of everyone blaming them for the volume it may pay for everyone to consider their devices.. the volume is perfect on my iPhone, even my iPad.. and I just streamed it through my tv to check and once again it’s fine.. I’ve binge watched a bunch of their videos the past 24hrs and yet everyone keeps criticising them.. what a shame..
Thank you Bridgette. We have come to realise that the volume can be different on different devices. If we speak slightly too soft, it might be fine on one but too soft on another. As you rightly stated, we do have only everyday devices to use (no professional equipment 😀 ) but we will take the feedback on board and continue to try and improve this issue as we would like for everyone to enjoy the channel.
I like to watch your journey, but please invest in a couple of Bluetooth clip on mics or something. And also to have equalized sound levels. When one of you is across the room from the camera, one must urn the sound up very loud to understand through the echo and resonance of the room, then you’ll have a scene like the floor sanding with music and the sudden change of sound from poor quality to good just blasts through the speakers. Then it goes back to poor quality low sound again when you are speaking across the room. Then an ad plays and it’s very loud again. It would be much more enjoyable if you had better and more consistent sound quality. I have sensitive hearing and don’t like the constant loud blaring sound after a having it turned up to hear the far away scenes. I haven’t been able to watch an entire video at once because of this. I might subscribe or come back more often when the sound gets better. Happy renovating!
Thank you for the feedback. We are aware of the soundtrack problem and hope to resolve this soon. Apologies for the issues caused and we hope to see you back in the future. Thank you for the good wishes x
Hello and thank you for the feedback. Apologies for this. We are aware there was an issue with the audio and we hope yo resolve it in the next video. Did you have problems with the other video's too?
Unbelievable how much you have accomplished! Beautiful!

Well, that was about building from scratch and you have made yourself a lovely place to live in.
Thank you very much. Yes, it has been 'home' for more than a year now, but really looking forward to moving into the main part 🙂
Enjoyed from Texas!
A good soundtrack can help your videos. Watch The Chateau Diaries. Also use landscape mode more.
Yes, filming in “ landscape” mode would really enhance the scope of your work! Great job…
Yes, we do all our filming in landscape now but unfortunately earlier footage (before we created a RUclips channel) was for family albums and we did not pay attention to this. That is all we have now so working with that and moving forward all videos will be in landscape mode. Thank you.
Wow very beautiful, glad you kept the original house plan. Love to restore old homes. Amazing cozy home. Great job to you... you gave me some inspiration..
We always love to hear when people are inspired by what we are doing. Thank you very much x
Quel courage ! Bravo à vous de restaurer le patrimoine français..👍👍👏👏

Ha ha!! “Was that sexy or a construction worker?” Beautiful job you two!!
Haha! I had no idea he was recording a video! Thankfully I did not feel like really playing along at that moment! Yes, not very sexy at all 😉
You have done an amazing job fixing it up so far. Sure hope you didn’t pay too much. What a reck it was and so much work. It will be beautiful in the end! BC Canada

Some of the footage will be while we are busy. We are playing catch up as,we did works before we started the RUclips channel. Thank you for watching x

Lavoro enorme ma meraviglioso, ne valeva la pena, siete proprio bravi. Vedremo la torre restaurata?
Grazie e sì, ripristineremo la torre e faremo un video in futuro 🙂
Wonderful final product, but sound quality is poor
Yes apologies, we are aware and will try to solve this in the future videos.
It's really too bad that the sound quality is so poor! I would have loved to hear what was being said.
Apologies, we are working on the sounds quality and hope to have it sorted in the next video. Thank you for watching.
Checking out your video can you turn your
Phone the long way
Wishing you much success on your renovation

Your volume is a bit low.
Thank you for the feedback. We have hopefully addressed this now.
Its a shame i could hardly see what was done need to do.it on fall screen and sound was low xx

3sound is really poor.>Not audible 80 percent of time.>Add subtitles
Apologies, we are aware of the issue with the sound and working on it. Generally RUclips automatically adds subtitles so I hope that helps.
sound needs help.............louder!!!
Thank you for the feedback and we are aware there was a problem. Apologies for this and we trust the other videos are better.
Sorry, I couldn't watch. I can't hear due to the audio so low.
So sorry to hear this. We realise there was a problem with the audio on this video. We hope you were able to enjoy some of the others at least.
You must realize we can't hear you well at all...
