I agree. Definitely, Stephanie brings sooo much life into everything she does! Amazing Museum! Thank you to all who dedicate their in lives in perversing these amazing places for our enjoyment! Thank you gentle Philip for capturing the beauty of this majestic building through your video ❤
This Gentleman is not only a wonderful Host, he certainly has a passion for this chateau. It’s evident how much joy it brings him that he definitely wants to share with Stephanie, Phillip, and lucky 🍀 us!! Thank you 😊 all.
What an absolutely delightful tour! Your hosts were so kind. You could see the love for "their" castle in their hearts. Thank you for taking us along to this beautiful place that I had never heard of!
How exciting! This is also, where once a year a huge fantasy festival, similar to a renaissance fair is held. At least, in the gigantic parks and gardens that belong to this castle. It's called Elfia (formerly Elf Fantasy Fair). I visited this festival in 2010 or 2011. I remember them having actual waterfalls in their gardens, where all the fairy cosplayers would pose for photos, and there was an Asian part with Buddha statues hidden in the vegetation, and of course the rose gardens. All the dressed up ladies in their Victorian gowns sat there to have their little tea parties inside small gazebos among the roses. People came in steampunk costumes, and knights in real armour. They had a group of Nazgul from Lord of the Rings on horses, which were pretty intimidating because they looked so real! Someone dressed as Jack Sparrow and looked so much like Johnny Depp, it was uncanny! I was dressed up in a sort of belly dancer/gypsy outfit, and it was so much fun strolling along these beautiful paths, resting beside the water, seeing all the different plants, and then there was so much music and food and things to buy and workshops to attend, too. Watching this video brought back fun memories!! And so interesting to now have seen the castle from the inside, because that certainly didn't happen when I was there! What a delight! 😀 Love and greetings from Germany! 💜
This Magnificent Castle has been lovingly and historically preserved and should be on every Tauck tour of the Netherlands for many more foreign tourists to explore !
Wow, so nice to see the same antiques my grandmother and my father used to have. It brings back memories! Like the armoire, including the vases on top (maybe they are not exactly the same) next to the piano and the standing clock on the left of the tulpenvaas (tulipvase). Sadly it was all sold. Who knows, maybe it ended up there as we live near, in the middle between Maastricht and Arcen. Thorn, Philip might know it. It used to be an independent mini state, ruled by royal women for over 800years and its abbey has mummies. And in the city centre, all houses are white, which Thorn is famous for. As you can imagine, it's a very touristy place. Though it is a very small city (it has city rights) as it has less than 2500 inhabitants. We have no castle, but the abbey is beautiful! I think you'd love it as well as the rich history of fierce, independent women who used to rule Thorn :)
Once again Stephanie you didn't disappoint. This place is amazing. The history, the castle the furnishings, the gardens, EVERYTHING. just beautiful. Thanks for taking us with you.
This was wonderful!!! You are an absolutely natural presenter, your passion for all these beautiful things just shines through. The two Dutch gentlemen were lovely and charismatic as well. I can not wait to see it in the summer!!
This tour is truly a Dutch treat. I am so moved at the symmetry of the two paintings in the chapel. It would be wonderful to know who the artists are. I look forward to your return when the impressive gardens are in bloom. This Kasteel must inspire you for your own ongoing efforts at your beautiful chateaux! 💖 🏫 💐
....amazing....and only in the Netherlands even the gardener speaks perfect english....this all was a perfect presentation of Kasteel Arcen...I am impressed....thank you!
I could tell you and Phillip were having so much fun! The two things that really moved me were the paintings in the chapel and the beautiful flower arrangements in EVERY ROOM! These two men were so lively and precious. You could tell they had a passion for their work. Oh to have that kind of joy in your work! I have that! I am blessed so I know exactly how they feel. You can tell they are LaLande fans. 🥰
Oh yes please 🙏 return and take us on the most beautifully joyous tour filled with enthusiasm, delight, history and shown with passion and pride. Cannot wait to see this beautiful place in Summer. Thank you, thank you, thank you 💕
This chateau is stunning. The wallpaper, floors and furnishings, incredible. The gardener looks a bit like Formula 1 driver Sébastien Vettle. They both have the same mischievous smile. 🙂🇨🇦
I'd love to see more of the castle. Upstairs rooms, bed chambers, restored kitchen, maybe some staff rooms. I love love love this series of Stephanie's. Good job with the camera Philip.
Thank you, Stephanie and Philip, for the beautiful tour!! It has been over five decades since spending time in Amsterdam. It amazed me then, and still does so even now, how proficient the Dutch are with English. You too, Philip!!
What a spectacular castle. The history of each room is fascinating. I also learned the difference between a labyrinth and a maze. I can’t wait to see the garden in the summer. ❤ Also, the men there are all so tall!
The enthusiasm of both Stephanie and the host is infection-ate and the building interior is purely magnificent, the clock is mesmerising , each room is pure joy to see and the magnificent gardens so very exciting to see the return journey when all is in flower. Pure Heaven to visit x Thank-you and Well done to you both x
Magnificent, Stunning, Glorious, Perfection, the castle, the gardens, the gentlemen, Stephanie’s enthusiasm and Philip’s filming. Such a delightful way to spend a few moments in time. Thank you all so much!
I know the chateau is very nice but.... THOSE GARDEEEENS OMG, i need to know eeeeeeverything about those gooooorgeous gardens! soooo well kept, soooo beautifull.... really, they need a youtube channel on their own, that's a content treasure over there.... people loooooove garden channels!
Well, there wasn’t anything NOT to love in this wonderful property! I was very taken with so many things, but the ingenious reproduction of the fireplace tiles and the construction of the new wooden floors really took my interest. The faux leather wallpaper is amazing as well. Thank you, Phillip for giving us a very good look at everything in the rooms.
That was a fantastic tour Stephanie. I have watched many interesting shows about castles but never one like this. Stephanie's excitement as she went from room to room was contagious, even the curator was caught up in it. I actually felt like I was there with you both. I cannot thank you enough for letting me join you on this wonderful visit to Castle Arcen. The filming was so personal, letting us re see the rooms as you excited to the next. The music choice was beautiful. Thank you Phillip and Stephanie
What an enchanting, beautiful castle. Every room shown is stunning. It is really hard to pick a favorite room or piece of furniture/art in this home. Phillip you have done an amazing job filming, Stephanie is delightful in her excitement and appreciation of this beautiful place and gardens. The gentlemen who live and care for this property and so exciting to listen to in describing the history of the castle. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this tour Stephanie and Philip. Thank you so much. Will look forward to the summer tour. ❤❤❤
Stunning castle and gardens!! Such lovely gentlemen with their beautiful Dutch accents. I’m excited to see the gardens in summer!! I was blessed to have lived in The Netherlands for 6 months years ago and was fortunate to see the Kukenhof flower gardens - one of the most extraordinary gardens I have ever seen!! Love from Mary in Southern California 💗
What a fantastic Tour. The Head Gardener and the Host were so enthusiastic and knowledgable and made you feel you were there. Bravo Stephanie love this channel.
What a spectacular place! Glimpses of the garden at the end of the video show it to be absolutely outstanding! BTW, there's a famous labyrinth in Chartres Cathedral. You could build a labyrinth at LaLande! When I moved here to the country, I built a small 7-circuit one, they're wonderful for peaceful, meditative walks.
I have a 1920's Pianola - but it has to be pumped by foot.. a great workout.. with about 700 rolls of music from the 1920's to the 1960's Its great fun.
What a thrill to see this magnificent building! It's obviously being taken care of with much love. What I enjoy even more of your enthusiasm for the history and beauty surrounding you!!
So many visions here! I will have to watch again -- the light inside and outside is wonderful and even a simple chair and table in these rooms ... speak.
You did it again Stephanie! That was spectacular! What a beautiful place, and great filming! Looking forward to see it again in the summertime! 🏰🥰👌🏾✨🌸🌹🌷🪷🌸🌹🌷
Magical place. Edmond is very informative and interesting. His passion come through loud and clear. The glimpses of the summer garden are breathtaking. Can't wait.
What a wonderful passionate tour guides are these two gentlemen 👑 yes please come back when gardes are blooming! Always fun to see Stephanie's happy enthusiasm and Philip's filming as a pro! Thanks guys ⚘ love you
Thanks for the tour of this beautiful castle and grounds. A learning experience as we moved through the tour. Very informative of the restoration process.
This is a beautiful Kastel and gardens and I am looking forward to seeing more when you return. The passion of your two hosts for this place is lovely to see. I did think something in the style the mantel with the Prussian king is an answer to the problem of the Marquis salon fireplace. A job for Amaury?
One day at Lalande with the Pergola and tea area built, there will be a gossip area for the trees to soak up. Also, the mill will be a great sixth year project after the lake, natural pond, and pool areas are built in the fourth year. The fifth year will be the formal garden and maze for Michael Potts.😘😘😘
Both gentlemen are extraordinary. They excel in their respective fields of castle/grounds restoration. It was a pleasure to view and learn about Dutch history. Stephanie was a wonderful interviewer. And a big thank you to Phillip for taking such great footage for us to enjoy.
Oh just wow ! Not only a stunning building and gardens but such glorious furnishings i couldn’t choose a fav although yes Stephanie I too loved the dinky chapel pews the carving beautiful! A truly wonderful place to see and the people who own / run it clearly love it so much thank you for sharing look forward to seeing the gardens in bloom ! ❤
Wonderful visit!! I have been to Arcen quite a few times for living history events but never had such a lovely, in depth tour in the castle itself. Edmond should consider making some YT videos - he is such a charming man and his enthusiasm for the castle and its history just shines through everything he says. And Bartian is so passionate about the gardens. They really should think about opening a yt channel.
What a welcoming and delightful host!! The castle is absolutely exquisite with all the beautiful windows allowing for the water reflections to dance on the ceiling. The Chapel is a GEM and worthily restored. I can’t wait for your return to film the gardens; the pictures of them at the end were beyond amazing! Loved every minute of this tour-Thank You!
Wonderful castle and hosts! I would definitely like you to come back and show us the gardens! Well, I wouldn't mind visiting the castle by myself as well one day!!!😘🥰
Edmond Staal is a unique Limburgian who recentently was honoured as 'the most achieving person in Limburg' by the governor of the province of Limburg. He makes documentaries, he knows everything about Limburg's nature, plants and animals. His CV is endless.
What a spectacular place, so full of history. The gardens are a dream, amazing was the path of trees. 🦋 I look forward to seeing your gifted Dalhlias in bloom at Lalande. I am going to try my hand at growing some as well. 🦋 Your hosts were so gracious and charming. You can tell what they do is a labor of love. 🦋 An finally Stephanie your coat and scarf are soooooo pretty! You always make my day better. 🦋
OMG. Such an amazing chateau and gardens. Oh please go there when everything is in full bloom. The owner and gardener were so passionate and charming. Thanks for taking us on this incredible tour. I had never heard of this place before. So thankful you and Philip brought us along. You both make the best tour guides 😍😘
Stephanie, I have not enjoyed a tour of a chateaux this much in quite a while. When I see armoires, buffets etc. with those pillars on the corners I want to reach out in search of a wooden peg to unleash a secret pane!. All the beautiful detail about the blue-to-be boudoir! Remniscences of castle life... The garden must be beautiful in summer. Thank you!
What a beautiful castle with a magnificent inside display of wonderful furniture, paintings and painted ceilings. The gardens are truly magnificent, even in winter. Can't wait until Stephanie shows them off in summer.
How extraordinary, inside and out, and what passionate and knowledgeable guardians this lucky chateau has. Thank you for the tour and looking forward to seeing it again this summer.
It would be nice if all of the abandoned Castles and Chateaus could be turned over to a Foundation instead of just rotting away. What they have done here with this Castle and the gardens is amazing! It has the best care takers!! Thank you Stephanie for this amazing tour.
If you understand French, there is a great vlog about restoration of Chateaux that I have heard of Chateaux SO. A society of French Owners does the vlog.
What charming hosts. I will be looking forward to the summer garden tour. I hope the same gardener show us around. He's delightful. I can't wait to hear him talk about his plants. Thanks Stephanie and Philip. A diversion was just the right medicine to start my day.

You are a natural when it comes to speaking to other people and your presence on camera
I always think she listens to reply rather than understand
i like how the guy had to turn to peer at her... at her joy or her eyes...
The chateau is exquisite. I must say Phillips filming is fantastic when Stephanie is doing tours.❤
totally agree, very few 'amateurs' pan across rooms so smoothly with perfect timing.
I agree. They have a fabulous partnership
I was thinking the same thing! He is very steady with it!
Yep we said the same thing. Philip is so very talented. Great camera work. Wow.
I agree. Philip you’re doing great with the camera. Showing everything we want to see. And not moving too fast.
Watching Stephanie is really calming, and her positivity puts me in such a good mood!
I couldn't agree more
Agreed!
me too! - I listen while I work
I agree. Definitely, Stephanie brings sooo much life into everything she does! Amazing Museum! Thank you to all who dedicate their in lives in perversing these amazing places for our enjoyment!
Thank you gentle Philip for capturing the beauty of this majestic building through your video ❤
Totally agree.

This was my favourite episode so far,the host was absolutely charming and so passionate about the Castle.
What an absolutely delightful tour! Your hosts were so kind. You could see the love for "their" castle in their hearts. Thank you for taking us along to this beautiful place that I had never heard of!
They are the nicest people ever! Both of them were so kind and so nice and so knowledgeable
What a very interesting and knowledgeable host. I do wish Philip could have played the piano.

love to see that
I believe this is where I first saw it thru Lee-Am channel...but just the outside . It's cool to now see the transformation of the inside.
Their is also a big event in the last two weeks (evenings) of oktober. Entanged Gardens, its a lightfestival.
Thanks to the owner for showing us his beautiful home, and thank you, Stephanie, for this videos they make me go back on time.

Absolutely fascinating..the host and the head gardener were charming...so pleased that you took us here...bless you and your vision!!!
....amazing....and only in the Netherlands even the gardener speaks perfect english....this all was a perfect presentation of Kasteel Arcen...I am impressed....thank you!
What an amazing chateau tour. Stephanie's appreciation of this spot and interaction with the guide and gardener is magical.
I love Stephanie's reaction to the player piano. So she starts moving to the music.
I could tell you and Phillip were having so much fun! The two things that really moved me were the paintings in the chapel and the beautiful flower arrangements in EVERY ROOM!

sneak peak: the gardens are on google streetview
My goodness, so beautiful! I so appreciate my European ancestry and especially the Dutch influence. Just so tidy and accurate. It's a thing for me!
The enthusiasm of both Stephanie and the host is infection-ate and the building interior is purely magnificent, the clock is mesmerising , each room is pure joy to see and the magnificent gardens so very exciting to see the return journey when all is in flower. Pure Heaven to visit x Thank-you and Well done to you both x
What a lovely tour with an amazing and interesting man. Being a florist, I just loved all the natural flower arrangements. Thankyou🤗
I’ll have to watch again for the arrangements.
Magnificent, Stunning, Glorious, Perfection, the castle, the gardens, the gentlemen, Stephanie’s enthusiasm and Philip’s filming. Such a delightful way to spend a few moments in time. Thank you all so much!

What lovely, passionate people. Now that's a restoration project! We look forward to seeing the garden again in Summer.
Beautiful!! Loved seeing the difference of Dutch vs. French chateaux and gardens. Thank you!
Well, there wasn’t anything NOT to love in this wonderful property! I was very taken with so many things, but the ingenious reproduction of the fireplace tiles and the construction of the new wooden floors really took my interest. The faux leather wallpaper is amazing as well. Thank you, Phillip for giving us a very good look at everything in the rooms.
Now I'm excited in seeing these garden in their summer glory. Good job Stephanie and Philip.
It’s a sin I’ve never been to the Netherlands, such a beautiful place and such warm friendly people. I’m inspired to go. Thank you
Yes in my experience Dutch people are so friendly and artistic.
Lovely preview photos to anticipate the garden in spring at the end-I hadn’t imagined it was that spectacular!
What a beautifully decorated chateau! Love the art work, painted floors, white walls and subdued woodwork. Such a charming host and guide!
What an incredible castle. The gardens even in winter are beautiful
That was a fantastic tour Stephanie. I have watched many interesting shows about castles but never one like this.

Beautiful castle that few of us will get to see. Thank you Stephanie, for sharing the jewels of Europe. xo
What a fantastic Tour. The Head Gardener and the Host were so enthusiastic and knowledgable and made you feel you were there. Bravo Stephanie love this channel.
What a spectacular place! Glimpses of the garden at the end of the video show it to be absolutely outstanding! BTW, there's a famous labyrinth in Chartres Cathedral. You could build a labyrinth at LaLande! When I moved here to the country, I built a small 7-circuit one, they're wonderful for peaceful, meditative walks.
You can tell that building is loved! So much information! I wanted to see the kitchen also. Phillip's filming is extraordinary! Thanks for the tour!
I loved your tour! The facade is so Palladian! The interiors are quite overwhelming. Thank you for your invitation to see this grand place.
I have a 1920's Pianola - but it has to be pumped by foot.. a great workout.. with about 700 rolls of music from the 1920's to the 1960's Its great fun.
What a thrill to see this magnificent building! It's obviously being taken care of with much love. What I enjoy even more of your enthusiasm for the history and beauty surrounding you!!
Yes I will enjoy a summer tour at this beautiful chateau. I enjoyed this tour today, thank you for sharing.
So many visions here! I will have to watch again -- the light inside and outside is wonderful and even a simple chair and table in these rooms ... speak.
Absolutey beautiful and he is so proud and loves his job sooo sooo much❤ and the gardener has the best personality and enthusiasm I loved him ❤️❤️❤️
You did it again Stephanie! That was spectacular! What a beautiful place, and great filming! Looking forward to see it again in the summertime! 🏰🥰👌🏾✨🌸🌹🌷🪷🌸🌹🌷

I love watching people who are passionate about something: castles, gardens, Star Wars ! Anything !
Wonderful tour with beautiful sights, sounds, and objects. Very magical. Hope you come back in the summer.
Thanks for the tour of this beautiful castle and grounds. A learning experience as we moved through the tour. Very informative of the restoration process.
Well that was a treat! You sparked quite the conversation here. What a beautiful castle and grounds. The Versailles floor - wow! Thanks both xx
This is a beautiful Kastel and gardens and I am looking forward to seeing more when you return. The passion of your two hosts for this place is lovely to see. I did think something in the style the mantel with the Prussian king is an answer to the problem of the Marquis salon fireplace. A job for Amaury?
Fabulous! I was amazed at how many flowers were in vases as the castle was opened just for you💐!
The flowers were fake ones for decoration.
@@jmk1962 Sorry, that isn't right, these flowers are for
real.
One day at Lalande with the Pergola and tea area built, there will be a gossip area for the trees to soak up. Also, the mill will be a great sixth year project after the lake, natural pond, and pool areas are built in the fourth year. The fifth year will be the formal garden and maze for Michael Potts.😘😘😘
As long as someone can dream it it shall be built..
Both gentlemen are extraordinary. They excel in their respective fields of castle/grounds restoration. It was a pleasure to view and learn about Dutch history.
Stephanie was a wonderful interviewer. And a big thank you to Phillip for taking such great footage for us to enjoy.

A stunning Dutch Chateau & Garden....wow!!! 👋👋👏
What a welcoming and delightful host!!
The castle is absolutely exquisite with all the beautiful windows allowing for the water reflections to dance on the ceiling.
The Chapel is a GEM and worthily restored.
I can’t wait for your return to film the gardens; the pictures of them at the end were beyond amazing!
Loved every minute of this tour-Thank You!
That….was fabulous 💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you Stephanie and Phillip ❤
This is one of the best castles we have in the Netherlands, in the province Utrecht we have a couple beautiful castles too.
This was just wonderful! Thank you for this beautiful tour! I did not want it to end and I can't wait to go back when you visit again!💕
Wonderful castle and hosts! I would definitely like you to come back and show us the gardens! Well, I wouldn't mind visiting the castle by myself as well one day!!!😘🥰

Stephanie, I have not enjoyed a tour of a chateaux this much in quite a while.

Remniscences of castle life... The garden must be beautiful in summer. Thank you!
I understand the garden is not in full bloom; but it is nice to see the bones of the garden
That blue blazer and the long coat with fur collar looks so nice on you, light blue is your color. Beautiful home.
What a beautiful castle with a magnificent inside display of wonderful furniture, paintings and painted ceilings. The gardens are truly magnificent, even in winter. Can't wait until Stephanie shows them off in summer.
I look forward to seeing the garden in the summer!
Church pews … paintings everywhere
Hand painted walls and ceilings
Just stunning
They definitely have the right people caring for this Estate! What PASSION!!! Its infectious ❤️❤️❤️
How extraordinary, inside and out, and what passionate and knowledgeable guardians this lucky chateau has. Thank you for the tour and looking forward to seeing it again this summer.
I would love to see the gardens in bloom. The castle with those amazing furnishings and the history behind each piece. Thank you Stephanie.
It would be nice if all of the abandoned Castles and Chateaus could be turned over to a Foundation instead of just rotting away. What they have done here with this Castle and the gardens is amazing! It has the best care takers!! Thank you Stephanie for this amazing tour.

Wonderful, so amazing. I loved castle and the gardens. Blessings.
Thankyou Stephanie & Phillip For Sharing Amazing Castles 🏰 Wow Love It 💕👌
The leather wallpaper incredible…
The reproduced tiles for the fireplace amazing and great to know
What a beautiful place. One more place to put on my list to tick off. It would be a summer trip for me so I can see everything in bloom. Thank you🌻
Very interesting. You are great at presenting and bringing the best out of the subject. Thank you.
Fabulous house but the florist is amazing!
