Porcelain stoves are the most efficient way of heating there is. In the 18th century, Swedish castles and houses used them, and they were famous for being the warmest places to live in Scandinavia, so France adopted them, too. Worth finding a way to repair the one you have. They are both beautiful and useful.
i love the relaxing filming mode of your videos. Also, both your voices are calming and grounding, its a pleasure to listen to you, unlike other chateau renovation owners who are very loud and noisy. Also, love that the artistic way of making these videos is still maintained in all the videos. Its a treat to watch them.
Thank you so much! We really appreciate that since we both get nervous on camera ☺️ Ian loves making these videos and finding creative ways to present the chateau!
@@TheBeauChateau thats funny to hear :), and i guess anyone would be nervous on camera unless they are a star celebrity :), but im glad you keep doing it anyway. We would be missing all this beauty shared with us, in the most relaxing way. And Ian is quite gifted in making the videos so why not doing it? like i said, they are a treat for our eyes (and ears :)). Oh and, can i say that i love how you speak french? Most english speakers have weird accents but yours is quite good, another treat for the ears :).
I was just going to say. Somehow you guys make these overwhelming tasks so relaxing! It's also good for my rusty french to listen to everyone speaking:) Your artistry in filming and music choices are superb.
Thank you so much! That means a lot coming from you!👌 Ian has a lot of fun filming around the domain. Golden hour always turns into drone time 😆 We love your channel by the way. You’re videos are fantastic!
To rebuild the ceramic wood stove together use a fireplace mortar that is formulated to withstand the high heat. Do not use a household or construction glue. They will not withstand the heat a fire will generate.
Both your chateau and your channel stand out among the growing crowd of RUclips chateau offerings. It's always a pleasure to watch and listen to you both and see the impressive progress the two of you are managing to achieve. Thank you for making the time to share the trials and triumphs of this enormous project with us.
The aerial images of the garden, even before being cut, reveal a lot about the design of the garden. I use images like this for my own work to assist with restoration. You guys have some very defined and clear images. I'm curious to see the courtyard once the cobblestones are cleaned. Congrats on the progress! Cheers-
You two are doing a great job. When the days hit and you're not sure and feel overwhelmed please know from the outside looking in you're doing fantastic things. Love from Ohio 🌄.
Thank you, Fran! Knowing that others can enjoy this journey with us, like you, is what keeps us excited to make more videos and get more work finished! Have a wonderful day 😊
Seeing the tractor silhouette with the château as a backdrop coupled with the music choice brought tears to my eyes. It was like it is the château started breathing again. I know, you probably think I’m nuts but it is what it is. ❤
I'm sure you know already, but the parchmarks in the garden show where there's a hard surface below, like a pathway or footings for an old wall. In the hotter months, the moisture in the earth gets blocked from being drawn to the surface and the grass above the hard feature dies off quicker than the grass around it. That garden is going to be awesome! 😎
La cour pavée sera superbe une fois nettoyée 👍🏻 j’ai hâte aussi de découvrir les anciens parterres auprès de la fontaine 👍🏻 L’électricien a beaucoup de travail !! 😄 Bravo pour avoir réparer, même temporairement, la terrasse 👍🏻 J’aimerais bien voir l’ancien poêle restauré 😉 il est tellement joli ! Prenez bien soin de vous, avec tous ces chantiers ! Votre château est féerique ✨ À bientôt !! 🌸🌸🌸
Dungeon roof, a self leveling all purpose clear coat sealer will do the trick and you can do it yourself. Put a dehumidifier or a fan pointed up to the dungeon ceiling to dry it out. Boom done.
Wow the landscaping is so beautiful. Can’t wait to see the garden and the cobblestones come to life. 😊Love your videos. I know your grandfather would be so proud of you. He’s watching over you and every time you finish a project at the Chateau I know you feel his arms around you giving you the tightest squeeze. ❤
What a wonderful gift your Grandfather gave you. He obviously saw that you loved his dream as much as he did. Inheritance tax is brutal in France as I watch another channel that the family of two brothers and two sisters couldn’t afford the tax and decided to burn the place down (leaving only the shell) and sell the land. So sad. Another utuber has bought the once amazing property and is going to try to restore it from the shell. He is not rich so it will be a life project as he can afford. Bless you Daphne and Ian in your quest to save another French chateau. New Zealand 🇳🇿
A new subscriber from Tasmania Australia and avid gardener for 50plus years! I'm so excited from those aerial shots to see your garden reimerge from the grass,I'm sure it will be wonderful! Look forward to your journey, makes me wish I was 30 yrs younger!👍👍👏👏👊👊👌👌🤞🤞🇦🇺🇦🇺
You guys are such hard workers...People cant even begin to understand the amount of hours it takes to do all this WHILE FILMING IT.(i know,i worked in television for a long time,and i live in a(small)house in the woods.Just keeping nature from taking back the property and grounds is a big task! It's absolutely crazy...So,great respect for your work ethic.Please know that we realise it is NOT a walk in the park. But you both make it look easy,and fun.Best of luck to you☀️...hope you someday will find the time to enjoy the beautiful fruits of all your hard labour,in all relaxation,without a TO DO list that is a mile long...Greetings from the Netherlands✌️🥳
Hi Daphne & Ian! This is Elle from San Francisco sending my thanks to you for sharing your story about your grandfather, Alzheimer’s, and COVID. As you spoke of your summers with him in France, I sensed how much love you have in your heart for him. It’s truly touching how you left NoCal for France to help him with the property in his waning months and days. You are a courageous woman for taking on such a massive challenge, and are showing just how strong and capable you really are to all who are privileged to watch your journey. It’s comforting to know your partner, Ian, is with you now and is engaging with the restorative process. In no time at all, you’ll have a million subscribers because you’re not afraid to be vulnerable in sharing your story, seem like down-to-earth people who aren’t afraid of hard work, and you’re committed to each other and the chateau.. I’m rooting for your success, have already subscribed, and will be with you in spirit along the way. Do check in with fellow RUclipsrs, The Petherick’s, Billy and Stephanie. They’ve restored a lovely chateau and have embarked on a new project….a former convent, chapel, and school. I think you’d get along famously. Sending good thoughts and wishes for much success. I’ll be watching! ✌️🫶🖖
Wow, what phenomenal progress! STUNNING! And I love both your voices, so nice to listen to! Your grandfather would be so proud of you! And what an excellent electrician! Hard to find these days!
The stove is a poêle en faïence from Vitry-le-François (I left a comment last week but you didn’t get a chance to read it I guess 🙂), you might be able to find someone to repair it online. All the best, and thank you for your videos 🙂
Thank you, Vincent! We do our best to read all of the comments but some slip through.. You are correct! We found pictures of it from its original brochure and it looks gorgeous! Thank you for your input 😊
A lovely hard working down to earth couple who clearly enjoy the renovations of this beautiful chateau. It's a shame another well known chateau doesn't have the same attitude, there's more to life than dressing up, eating, drinking and giggling. Well done for showing us that any money donated is well spent.
Thank you so much! We still feel like we’re new to RUclips, and each video we make turns into a learning experience, so we hope to keep making them better as we move forward 😊
That garden is going to be AMAZING!! Also I loved the roaring fire in the fireplace scene, when Ian he was gonna have some coffee by the fire, I was like oh ya, that is what I would do too!
Thank you for such great renovation/restoration/preservation content and the calm presentation. The music choices are also wonderful. It’s fun to watch you dream and discover.
Really elegantly filmed and edited video. The garden project looks vast and a great challenge. I used weed and driveway clear chemicals on cobblestones. It's much easier once applied to get all the dead grass and weeds out from the stones and the gaps between. Otherwise the problem will come back again if you don't kill off the grass completely.
Always love love love the videos . Love seeing the formation. Such a beautiful gift your grandfather left to you. You both will have a wonderful life there. So amazing
The garden will be beautiful when you've made your plans and can start. Hope the car show goes well. Happy you've had the electrician out. It's wonderful this feeling of progress. I know it's slow to you...but you're a force of two so be proud of your achievements.
It's a gorgeous stove. I'm sure France still has some artisans that are more than capable. Not only check online, but ask around the local areas. Sometimes you can only find something by word of mouth.
Princess Daphne and Ian McStud back at it again with a fantastically well produced video. I think I say it everytime, BUT I LOVE YOU GUYS and what you're doing is reaaaally cool. One day I'll visit. I think. If opened to the public. I can pay. I'm 31 and can carry a bunch of stuff. I'm useful. I swear. Please let me visit
Haha thank you, Jeremie! We appreciate your encouragement! We hope to host volunteers eventually, and will have more public events in the future, so stay tuned 😉
@The Beau Chateau your tiles are from a Majolica Tile Wood Stove. If you Google that you should be able to find a few to guide you on how to put it together.
It's always fun to see what is uncovered on these château restoration channels. I'm looking forward to seeing more. The garden looks so much better already having been mowed.
Normally a bricklayer would lay a brick foundation to plaster the glazed stone tiles on to. Try finding a bricklayer to inquire further, as to who they could recommend to rebuild it, would be my suggestion.
The huge International trade show for cars is Oct. 17-23 it's in several of the buildings at Porte de Versailles- Metro ligne 12. There is always a building dedicated to old cars....I don't know if they have it anymore but Paris hosted a trade show for convertibles and an even bigger building full of old roadsters....
Thanks for letting us know! Fun fact, after Ian got out of the military, he purchased his dream car, a 1967 Mustang fastback. Sadly he sold it before moving to France, but he hopes to have one again someday! He says he wants a 1968 Mustang GT 390 like Steve McQueen had 😄
@@TheBeauChateau When I was a kid my parents bought a 65 Mustang, in the 80's I had a 67 fastback, white with blue interior, when the speed limit was 55 she purred at 75... traded her for a Cadillac then sold that and moved to France...
The photography is amazing. Heavenly views from above. I will be watching your progress from here in Texas, USA. God bless you two and praying for the best on your journey. What a dream life !
No surprise that US electrical regulations seem odd to him, Europe runs 230 Volt for everything where In the US, Canada and some of South America 120 volt is used in the majority of the house. 240 is generally wired into kitchens, laundry rooms and garages to run dryers, stoves, water heaters, central heating and cooling, Welders etc.
What a mamouth task you have taken on, and there is only two of you, but you are young and strong and determined. I watch many Chateaux blogs and your amazing property is the most beautiful and valuable of them all.
Your narration is like a cool salve smoothed onto chapped skin! I love your relaxed style and your soothing voice! The beautiful images of your chateau along with your wonderful classic and calming music selection is a remedy to the hectic world we live in.
Just wow, mes former Californian amies... what an adventure! Do you ever pinch yourselves hard?? Is it just an fantastic dream? 😁 The original gardens must have been on a grand scale, and designed by someone important, looking at the shadow that is still visible. Is there an existing painting or blueprint somewhere? I'm feeling there was a maze as well...so exciting! So many of the chateaux renos have had these amazing, complicated garden designs that are now sadly gone...it's wonderful to regenerate them, as they were made to complement the opulence of the extraordinary buildings such as yours 💚👑 (Have you seen the movie "The Serpent's Kiss" ?? ☺️) You're both doing a stellar job, and Ian does look like a native, a cavalier stepped right from an antique painting ... ; ) Have fun you two...😘xx
Thank you so much 😊 We haven’t seen that movie but will definitely look it up! We definitely have moments of appreciation for the opportunity we have been presented and we never take it for granted ☺️
I used to have a large stove like that in Germany, called “Kacheloven” Once every 15 years someone had to redo the grout with mortar. Check if you can find a video in RUclips. It has to heat resistant as these ovens get very hot. Dry the skins of oranges and clementines on top of it. Makes a good fire starter.
@@TheBeauChateau I misspelled. Kachelofen. The large ones hold the heat all day and it’s nice to warm your back on them. I’ve se t you a video link on how to build one.
I'm an avid follower of the chateau renovation channels, and yours popped up in my feed today, yay! A delight to watch, and I enjoyed your sense of humour. Cannot wait to watch more!
I have just discovered your channel tonight. What a stroke of good luck. I follow many chateau owners on RUclips and your chateau is one of my all time favourites. I can't wait to follow your journey and I love the very relaxed way your videos are filmed. You are both very natural infront of the camera and a joy to watch. Good luck with your renovations.
That´s really a beautiful chateau. You are doing a great job. I noticed how everything is so cleaned inside the castle ☀And we see that you have sophisticated taste. The "corner" where you are staying is so beautiful and comfortable ! Wishing all the best to you ( including the cats and dog ) ❤
Wow! Pretty exciting to watch what’s coming next with the garden and the “parking “ for the antique cars that you were trying to clean. You are working hard and well, I love your videos!
Wow…what a lovely find in your Garden. I can just imagine each design with flowers, hedges and sitting areas. That fireplace…so jealous. Also, you had me laughing out loud with your “chain of unfortunate events” with your weed wackier.
the level of production and cinematic thing thats going on in this channel is just 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 and im so excited with what you'll discover than down there soo cool!
Awesome video... The Beau Chateau, what a wonderful, magical place to call your home. I love the over head drone shots of the Chateau and its grounds. A wonderful job with the cinema photography and the music in the background! You are very fortunate to be living this dream, and we are lucky to live vicariously through your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Such a beautiful and challenging life project! Thanks for sharing 💛. PS, I also enjoy the pace and serenity of this video it’s so refreshing to be able to watch something that is good for my nervous system reminds me a little of the PBS days!
I'm only just now seeing this in early March. I was hoping you would cut back the vegetation here to find garden perimeters and delineations. It is very exciting!💗
Outstanding production quality made this such a pleasure to watch! I'm so excited to see the revealing of the original garden structures. It's like an archeological dig. The cobblestones are also going to be worth all the work to uncover. Its grueling, but the results will be magnificently rewarding.
Thank you so much! 😊 We are so excited to continue the garden project. We have so many ideas and hope to make that entire space into something special for guests to experience.
Just found your channel. You guys are amazing! With your dedication and a lot of elbow grease you can make this happen. I'm looking forward to follow your journey. Brigitte from the Netherlands 🌷

VERY excited to see what develops in uncovering the old garden boundaries!! AND the cobblestone. What a fantastic adventure! Enjoy.
Dungeon roof, a self leveling all purpose clear coat sealer will do the trick and you can do it yourself. Put a dehumidifier or a fan pointed up to the dungeon ceiling to dry it out. Boom done.

That is a lovely sentiment 🥰 thank you so much!
A happy couple make the old chateau a happy one! Love it!
I find the renovation of the château, and it’s grounds to be absolutely fascinating. So glad I found this channel.
Cobblestones will look amazing when uncovered. It will be worth the effort. The garden boundaries are exciting!
So exciting about the garden boundaries. You guys have such a lovely home to live in. Your Grandad did a lovely job with that outbuilding for you.

Is there an existing painting or blueprint somewhere? I'm feeling there was a maze as well...so exciting!
So many of the chateaux renos have had these amazing, complicated garden designs that are now sadly gone...it's wonderful to regenerate them, as they were made to complement the opulence of the extraordinary
buildings such as yours 💚👑
(Have you seen the movie "The Serpent's Kiss" ?? ☺️)
You're both doing a stellar job, and Ian does look like a native, a cavalier stepped right from an antique painting ... ; )
Have fun you two...😘xx
Thank you so much 😊 We haven’t seen that movie but will definitely look it up! We definitely have moments of appreciation for the opportunity we have been presented and we never take it for granted ☺️
I used to have a large stove like that in Germany, called “Kacheloven”
Once every 15 years someone had to redo the grout with mortar.
Check if you can find a video in RUclips. It has to heat resistant as these ovens get very hot.
Dry the skins of oranges and clementines on top of it. Makes a good fire starter.
So interesting! Thank you for sharing 😊
@@TheBeauChateau I misspelled.
Kachelofen.
The large ones hold the heat all day and it’s nice to warm your back on them.
I’ve se t you a video link on how to build one.
I can't wait till you uncover the whole garden! :D
Omg finally the video is here!!! I always get so excited when u guys posting new videos!!! Keep up the good work❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love The Beau Chateau 💕😍💕
Thank you for sharing it 🌈🕊
The garden will be amazing, but I’m so excited to see your office completed!❤️
I'm an avid follower of the chateau renovation channels, and yours popped up in my feed today, yay! A delight to watch, and I enjoyed your sense of humour. Cannot wait to watch more!
Yay! So excited for another video! Happy to have something to take my mind off of the hurricane here in Florida 💕
So satisfying see the grass getting cut…..cheers from Camarillo, CA.
Nice and relax to watch, keep the tranquil mode of filming and commenting.
Can't wait to see the cobblestone, y'all making good progress!
careful, those safety glasses are dangerous! 😂💖🦊
Great try with the cobblestones it will be beautiful later !!
The pieces of the stove are so beautiful-maybe the parts could be used as an art piece if the stove can’t be reassembled. ❤
I have just discovered your channel tonight. What a stroke of good luck. I follow many chateau owners on RUclips and your chateau is one of my all time favourites. I can't wait to follow your journey and I love the very relaxed way your videos are filmed. You are both very natural infront of the camera and a joy to watch. Good luck with your renovations.
That´s really a beautiful chateau. You are doing a great job. I noticed how everything is so cleaned inside the castle ☀And we see that you have sophisticated taste. The "corner" where you are staying is so beautiful and comfortable ! Wishing all the best to you ( including the cats and dog ) ❤
Wow! Pretty exciting to watch what’s coming next with the garden and the “parking “ for the antique cars that you were trying to clean. You are working hard and well, I love your videos!
Thank you for your support! 😊
Wow…what a lovely find in your Garden. I can just imagine each design with flowers, hedges and sitting areas. That fireplace…so jealous. Also, you had me laughing out loud with your “chain of unfortunate events” with your weed wackier.
I didn't have your channel marked for notification - I can't believe it! Lol never again. I love your channel!
Enjoyed every minute of it.. Chateau saved from decay.. marvelous!
the level of production and cinematic thing thats going on in this channel is just 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 and im so excited with what you'll discover than down there soo cool!
I really like how you two just get it done. The music is perfect. Your channel is the best in my eyes and ears.
I am just blown away. This place is so amazing.
Love watching your video's.The garden will be stunning.Just cutting the tall grass gave you a glimpse of what it will be.
What an awesome property. Love that you had to bring in farm equipment to cut the grass!
Awesome video... The Beau Chateau, what a wonderful, magical place to call your home. I love the over head drone shots of the Chateau and its grounds. A wonderful job with the cinema photography and the music in the background! You are very fortunate to be living this dream, and we are lucky to live vicariously through your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Such a beautiful and challenging life project! Thanks for sharing 💛. PS, I also enjoy the pace and serenity of this video it’s so refreshing to be able to watch something that is good for my nervous system reminds me a little of the PBS days!
You guys are Awesome - what only two of you have accomplished is Amazing..
I'm only just now seeing this in early March. I was hoping you would cut back the vegetation here to find garden perimeters and delineations. It is very exciting!💗
Outstanding production quality made this such a pleasure to watch! I'm so excited to see the revealing of the original garden structures. It's like an archeological dig. The cobblestones are also going to be worth all the work to uncover. Its grueling, but the results will be magnificently rewarding.
Thank you so much! 😊 We are so excited to continue the garden project. We have so many ideas and hope to make that entire space into something special for guests to experience.
The stove is beautiful. I like it too. Great choice.
So wonderful to see your newest videos. They are so well done and lots of fun. Hope they keep coming.
Wow!! Y'all have been busy! Everything is looking great!
Just found your channel. You guys are amazing! With your dedication and a lot of elbow grease you can make this happen. I'm looking forward to follow your journey.

You’re living space looks so lovely and cosy!
