"A lot less sarcastic than Dan the gardener" 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I burst out laughing at that
What an absolutely lovely gentleman. Loved every minute of this.
I imagine being a child in this garden… hours of fun and places to explore 😊♥️
Winnie The Pooh would love it!
I would love it so much
I love it being an adult... 🥰😍
Oh yeah if you watched their channel, his kids are very much involved in taking care of the castle esp in the outdoors. And they look like they are really enjoying moment. Such lucky kids. Imagine if they play hide and seek in there 😹
I have seen willow furniture that sprouted...
It looks like a "folly:" a 19th century architectural edifice that was whimsical, usually built in a garden for secret rendezvous.
I was thinking it might be a play house for kids, but a folly is probably more likely.
They built follies earlier than that too. You see alot from 18th century landscape renovation for the English n Scottish manor houses
A spectacular chateaux, outbuildings, gardens, everything!! I have been watching Amaurri's channel for some months now, and his charm, good nature & calmness won me over!! His sweet wife & children are a bonus!! Thank you, Stephanie and Philip for sharing & spotlighting this wonderful, historic property with us!! Job well done!!! USA
What a gorgeous castle and out buildings. He's a handsome man and has the perfect warm personality to be host. Thank you for making such a comprehensive vlog.
They are a lovely couple!
Beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your amazing home. But, Stephanie and Phillip....oh my words you two! You're killing us! You're too stinking cute of a couple, what with your castle home and antique hunting and animals and artistic pursuits and joint labors and romantic travels, it almost hurts. ❤️ Keep up the good work.
Soooo lovely!! 💕
Also, I really start to see why Phillip is the perfect cameraman/companion/etc. for Stephanie for her vlogs. He has the same sort of ‘innocent joy’ about him, enjoying exploring and beauty.
While staying modest, honest and quirky. A beautiful match!
Thank you so much for the joy!! 💛💕💛
@@arnicepernice8656 Thank you!
I like that observation..how true.
Well said. Their wonderful personalities make this vlog so much more enjoyable
Okay, first of all, Phillip is a good, good soul! Really grown to just love his sweet heart! Second, this vlog was awesome! Loved it so much I’ll have to watch again, if nothing more than for the beautiful ending! Thirdly, I wish everyone with gorgeous stables loved horses as much as I do! 😁
omg.....sooooo pretty...thank you everyone.... at some point it looked like a Monet painting :)
I have to say that this is probably one of my favorite videos! The filming, and even when Steph was far away, she had a mic with her, and it’s so professional, and pure, like a real reality series where Steph goes exploring castles and chateaus 🥰great editing too. Usually I never comment like this cause I’m lazy 😂 but what a joy to watch both this and the first video of the castle!
Lazy but honest. I can respect that. Yes, it was well done, great editing, sound, content. 🌺💐
It's all wonderful, but that folly! Please restore the folly - it's one of the best parts of the estate!
The poor dog is desperately trying to get a game of throw the ball.
I know. I wished I would not have noticed because it ate at my subconscious the entire video
He sure was a playful dog, and with the owner's children he must get lots of play time.
Dogs can’t run repeatedly or it would get over heated ..dogs must learn some restrictions being a English springer spaniel ,as they can drive you mad,with their constant need for ball throwing.
@@susanbrown2909 I think the dog is a Small Munsterlander, I have one too.
I was already in love with the chateau itself after the last video and now this!! Such a magical little paradise 😍✨
Usually I don't comment on videos but I just have to thank you for the joy and happiness you bring with every video. It always makes my day when you upload something new! Lots of love to all the "Lalanders" 💕💕💕
The chateau is such a beautiful place so may hidden treasures loved watching.
Like a mini mental vacation. Thank you Amaury for sharing your stunning home with us. Thank you, as ever, to Stephanie and Phillip. xo
Thank you Amaury!!!
Hahaha you two paddling home was the perfect ending 😂 And what STUNNING grounds! 😲
The music played at the beginning was what I would play to my son when he slept as an infant. This child wrote his name at 3.5 , now 21 he has recently moved out. Thank you for bringing me back to those times. Bless you.
I think Stephanie and Philip seem to be great together..They really seem happy.
So glad Phillip went to find the garden folly. Oh my goodness, that would be my happy place. It is so beautiful even in it'd decrepit state. Wonderful visit, wonderful hosts!
Stephanie, the stables at Biltmore in Asheville, NC near us, have been turned into the Stable Cafe, where you have a booth in each stable area. The tile walls, windows, are all original. Other stables and rooms have been expanded to house a variety of gift shops.
that's a great idea.
I actually work in those gift shops 😊.
Lovely property the owners are fantastic. The unmowed tall grass to the bees and such would be wonderful with wildflowers strewn thru there. The bee's would love it! If it had to be mowed for a wedding maybe some of the flowers would come back.
Wow! Thank you Stephanie and Philip and Amaury for a delightful video! Castle ten Berghe is beyond magnificent and truly a treat to see. It is very easy to understand why Stephanie did not want to leave. What a treat!
I can't imagine anyone living at Castle ten Berghe needing to go on any holiday, as there is so many places to escape to in the grounds. Absolutely stunning place.
I can’t believe there is such a chateau so spectacular with so many views to enjoy. Very much like a fairy tale. A film should be made with the shooting done inside and outside, a romantic,period drama perhaps?
Yes, definitely!
I really admire this castle in and out but then again I have always loved neo gothic architecture. It seems well-suited to this lovely young family, I plan to see it in person one day
Of all Stephanie has visited, this is my personal favorite.
I cannot get enough of this chateau!
What a simply lovely castle.
Wow! Those buildings were beautiful, especially the run down one. What a romantic property. I love how he has used the willows! Makes me want to try in my yard.
You are right Stephanie, this place is beautiful!
Thank you for taking us along for the ride!
Absolutely lovely hard to believe there are places like that still being lived in❤️
It would be tragic if the folly was allowed to deteriorate any further. It is beyond charming....please restore it soon! It is such a grand estate and lovely to have the tour. Thank you!
What an amazing place! Hope they repair the beautiful things that need to come back to life, because they are too nice to let go.
THAT FOLLY WAS STUNNING!!! IT NEEDS URGENT RESTORATION OMG!!
Incredibly stunning. That walk..so many wonderful hidden gems

@Marlene Sistrunk The Secret Garden is one of my favorite books!!
@@meeganaschen8388 I’ve only seen the films ..PBS
@Marlene Sistrunk the 1993 film is my favorite version!! The cinematography is stunning and the score is lovely. It’s well cast and acted!
Ahhhmazingly beautiful tour! My favorite bit was the folly that Phillip found. Architecturally delightful!
Stephanie, there are loads of tiny houses on RUclips. Living Big In A Tiny House is a great channel with tons of tours.
🥰Now that would be a great project for Selmar!! 🥰 (if he had the time)
So glad we got to see the folly. How romantic! Please restore it😌
Absolutely stunning grounds, incredible the history you can see everywhere. Just love it! ❤️
Castle ten Berghe is one of the most beautiful places you have been. LOVED the outing on the boat. LOVE from Chicago
the folly was so nice thank you I would Love to see it fixed up. Glass and a good clean.
Stephanie, thanks so much for showing us other gorgeous châteaux. You are an excellent tour guide!
What a wonderful tour!
I appreciate his wonderful use of willow. Have any of you ever seen the amazing willow sculptures by Scot, Trevor Leat? He has magical willow creations.
Thank you for taking us on such wonderful adventures. You are opening door for so many. 🥰
Jane, I have not but will be researching Scots willows immediately after this vlog. I LOVE them and the memories a willow tree pulls from the recesses of my inner child. TY
@@barbibutton9619, Trevor Leats has created willow sculptures all over the UK & I became aware of him when he created a great stag for Season 4 of Outlander. He is the uncle of Sam Hueghan, the Scottish actor.
@@janewolfe9137 oh my daughter lives The Outlander series and books. I have yet to have a chance to check him out but might take a quick peak right now
Outlander series on Netflix was superb!!!
This vlog was absolutely magical!! That chateau!! And the owner is adorable, so kind!
It is so wonderful that Stephanie does these tours of other people's chateaux to help promote them and so that they get more subscribers and hopefully more business when things open up. I've been following Amaury and his charming family for the last year and he really could do with some more subscribers so if you've not seen his channel yet then you really should take a look.
JMK you are totaly right. To be honest, if Stephanie would not mind, they could post in a month or so, those two vlogs on @Castle ten Berghe chanell. I don't know if it is possible ligally, but that I think might help them, too. Just an idea.
@@karolinag2012 - He's got a premiere on right now as I type.
I watched it👍. So much work.
Thank you so much Stephanie, Philip and Amaury. It was such a pleasure to be invited into your home. And a wonderfully done interview throughout the videos Stephanie. I feel like I got a unique look into the chateau, family history and architecture from a genuinely appreciative and curious perspective. Such a treat!
Amazing!! I was just there walking behind you and enjoying every minute!
I’m in love with this beautiful place and dream to stay there and meet its equally delightful inhabitants. Horses in the stables for riding, would be the icing on the cake. Thank you for sharing and letting us know of this very special and magical place in the the world.
Philip has an excellent eye! Love that little building at the end!!
Such a stunning property. I have thoroughly enjoyed this visit. The willow enclosure so adorable. What a cute place for children to play or even adults…. The stables amazing. Nature at its best. ❤️
This is the most gorgeous, well preserved castle and property I have ever seen. Every inch is just stunning.
I thought this video of the gardens was absolutely delightful and sweet! I loved every single moment, and it is very much my style of gardens! Thank you so much for sharing this video with us! Well done indeed! And I was very pleased to 'meet ' the lady of the castle, what a beautiful woman!
loved this vlog; is anything more precious than watching Phillip and Steph paddling along a Monet painting.
“It’s making me want cumin cheese” I cried laughing! 😂😂😂 I love watching these adventures!
Fabulous property, home, tour and guides❤️🦋🌷
WOW!! Absolutely stunning!!! I hope to visit some day!!!
Oh so lovely upon a spring day when we sat in a boat and paddled away. The flowers in bloom and the leaves turning green, we look over our shoulder and then we see the Queen!
Thank you for that amazing 2 part tour of the castle! They are such a sweet family living in a fairytale!! I love the scenery as you rowed away. Stunning place at every turn!!! 💕
What a treat to see this beautiful place!!! Thank you!!
The views were perfect picture postcard Absolutely wonderful
Hi Stephanie, rhododendrons like acidic soil, our likes being watered with tea and coffee grounds:)
Thanks for that information, might be the reason mine died.
Rhododendrons are poisonous to dogs and other animals. We have them all over NC in USA. Don't let pets eat them.
No pressure.just an occasional wild life glimps. Love it
This just unlocked a memory - we had one of those willow huts at my primary school and it was one of my favourite places to be!
I think out of all the places I've seen this might be my favorite castle & grounds. It's such an idyllic place. So glad you were able to share it with us!
Phillip, thank you that you don't play music during such jaunts to a folly! The birds!! They were just loving it there & you let us be there with you!!! Priceless.
No shortage of Chateaus to visit and stay at in France. Looks like the menu s and views are to cleanse. Lovely tour!
I really must go stay at Amaury's lovely castle! When we can manage to get to Europe again, I will go there for a few nights. What a lovely person Amaury is! And I love Bruges. This tour was really nicely done, so thank you, Amaury, Steph and Phillip. 🤗
Beautiful! They are such a warm and friendly couple.
I love this palace of a place...& the dog & fabulous chickens. 💘 it all!
Thank you Stephanie, that was fun!🙂
Oh this really was especially lovely and sweet💕
Oh my, wouldn't a few of those cabins be lovely around the laLande lake and along the forest path?!?! With a wood burner the rental season could be longer. Another idea for the list! 🌳🌲🐦🌿🌼🌸🌳
I bet Selmar could build it! 🌞🌼🌸🌳
What a beautiful castle...how lovely to grow up there!
Thank you for the tour. Beautiful gardens and the stables are so impressive.
The Folly wow! That’s needs to be restored now! It’s amazing.
I haven’t been watching your program long but I love it. So many beautiful places. Heritage is one thing we Americans long for…I’m Scottish, European and French. I’m a born American but, as I get older (just turned 55!), I feel more and more like huge, important blocks are missing from my life. I’m proud to be American but if I were wealthy I would split my time between America and my ancestral countries. Your program makes me feel as though I’m already doing that. I almost believe I could live in a castle or a French chateau! Thank you. By the way, Phillip is adorable 😊.
Thanks Stephanie and Philip for such an amazing blog. A real delight watching this and a very stunning and amazing beautiful place. Thank you🌈💕
No Mow May is such a good idea! I think I might start doing that in a section of my yard. ❤🐝
This place is something out of a fairytale
I absolutely loved this! ❤🎉And when you both, Philip and Stephanie, went on the boat, it looked like you were inside a watercolor painting! I hope you have a picture of that, it should be framed! ❤
Another superb video about this utterly exquisite property. Amaury is the perfect steward of his family's estate: knowledgeable, appreciative, sympathetic, generous and hard working. Thanks to all three of you for sharing with us
Thanks Stephanie and Philip, loved the ending :) another wonderful vlog xo
Love the bicycle built for two!!!! This is a wonderful video. Thank you for this trip!!!!!!! Love from Vermont
It's a tandem.
This is the most beautiful château I have ever seen. The fact he is living in this with his family is extra special. Thank you for showing me this.❤
And been in his family for generations.
Wow, the grounds look absolutely stunning 😍 😍 😍
This was like a wonderful dream thank you so much.
the dear, folly tea house did me in!! what a lovely little space.
Lovely stables.
The folly needs to be restored..lovely little tea retreat to relax.
So glad we could enjoy some time here with you and Phillip. What an amazing property 😱 Can’t wait to see more. Thank you
What a magical place! Beautiful!
This was a wonderful place and I really enjoyed every bit of the fabulous tour. I’m pretty sure that the little mower for the forecourt should be named, “Dan?” Because every Chateau needs a Dan! The orchard mower could be named “Quincy?” Thank you all, Susan.
What a gorgeous video. Thank you Steph, Philippe and over all Amaury!
Patiently waited all week for this second tour and it did not disappoint! Stunning property :)
It is time for Phillip to make his own nature vlog. I love his ethuiasm!
@joke I agree with you. The footage especially the ones on the woodland animals edited by him is impeccable and nicely done. I would see him having his own successful RUclips channel that would make David Attenborough proud.
If he sees this I would love to subscribe to his channel. The ball is in your court Phillip. You are so good at those wildlife videos. Give it a thought and let us know if you are interested in doing it.
Little Ice Age happened between 1300 and 1850. For that short period of time temperatures were lower and that is why many historic depictions of frozen lakes and rivers in regions where they nowadays do not freeze exists.
I'm so happy to see a Belgian castle on your channel, especially the beautiful castle gen Berghe!
I think, this is the most beautiful, romantic and meaningful chateau vlog on RUclips 🏰 ➡️ 📺 ➡️🤩🤌🏻🤷🏼♂️❤️
That chick is called naked neck of Transilvania, originally from Romania
Throw the darn ball. Poor dog was so excited. Such a sweety
Beautful video and chateau. Wonderful tour with fantastic woods. A small B/B or Treehouse or Folly in the woods. Patrons plan a project soon please! I still love the idea of an orangey by the lake for Lalande. 😘😘😘
