      How did you come to choose de Bruges? Did you look at other châteaux?

      Will Grandma and Granddad be living with you full time? How many rooms will you be renting out when the Chateau is restored? Who is the gardener of the family? How many acres at the Chateau? What rooms are you working on first?

    • @janekearns4871

      What is your business plan for the chateau besides renting out rooms? Are there any outbuildings that you will be converting into gites?

    Absolutely stunning! So exciting to see how you progress with the garden. I actually love the cart idea and what a wonderful and a different feature for the courtyard. The green house is very unique and I think secretly your grandmother has claimed it. As for grandad get him some go faster stripes for his tractor. You really are an amazing family and a delight to watch on a Sunday. Can’t wait for the next episode (and the bloopers as it does make me chuckle) Have a super week all 😃👍

    Fantastic garden, and yes, awesome job on that magnificent hedge! Loved seeing Grandma’s tour of the green house!! I don’t have a garden anymore, but when I did, my favorite lettuces were packets of gourmet baby spring greens covering a sizable section of a bed in mass. Enjoyable to cut daily with several regrows. At my place I had to have raised beds and fence because of all the wonderful wildlife. Your place is really stunning.

    Oooo hidden treasures! Original features! History! Oh the anticipation! Love the little courtyard cart, it's exactly where it should be, and man do I want to pull on that lunch bell! Radio silence...haha while that seemed out of place in a chateau vlog, it brought a literal lol from me! The drive around the chateau, and Danielle standing by the fountain in front of it made me realize how simply breathtaking your chateau really is! The front gate and entry will be gorgeous when it's redone and your greenhouse is probably the best one I've seen yet, oooo can't wait for that rebuild to happen! Wells, fountains, pools, ponds?! You can never have too many water features! ok guys, once again, I simply LOVE your vlogging style, the opening and closing shorts are a wonderful peek into chateau living, and the aerial shots (maps! 😀) of where you are, are such a big help! Well done!! xo Oh, and bye Charles, thanks for helping, see you soon!

    Your video was very interesting, just like the others. You are all very good in front of the camera & the camera is amazingly steady (a big plus for those of us that get motion sickness...). Switching from person to person makes it more interesting. And the "radio silence" incident was quite funny.
    If there are no green leaves left on that tree then it is likely dead. How unfortunate since the trunk is beautiful. Unless it is somehow preserved (no termites & rot) & kept dry it will come down in a storm in the future.
    I look forward to watching your chateau transformed.

    This is lovely, what beautiful grounds you have. The aerial shots were very helpful to get bearings. I wonder how three of you are going to keep on top of all the maitenance given that there would have been a team of servants in the past. I can't imagine what the payments (community charge equivalent, energy etc) per year will be. Best of luck in making it pay for itself, I sincerely hope you make it and look forward to your progress. I love that the whole family are joining in.

    Looks fabulous 👌 but adding extra windows to an historical building sends shivers down my spine. For one it will be an enormous task with the thickness of the walls, two you will destroy the symmetry that the building has from the outside. Have you even checked to see if any windows have been blocked that can be reopened up? Sometimes you have to renovate to the building and not to your own designs. For more light in a room you could do light tunnels in the ceiling from the attic or just simply more lighting.

    Another brilliant video. I have 2 questions. Not sure what the sticky comment box is but here goes.
    1. Do you think you should try and do a commentary in french or German and it would perhaps give you more people watching.
    2. When you start filling up the wine racks do you think you might buy local wines. Maybe also have wine tasting evenings.

    I do hope you can use wood from the trees for furniture, etc

    The greenhouse will be a wonderful place to grow all year long veggies &;herbs. Try long plexiglass planets to cover.

      Thanks L Maier! We can’t wait to have the greenhouse refurbished! I think it will look amazing once again with some glass throughout!!

    I would think the bells were used in cases of emergencies and fires. They could have been used at meal time but I would think their meals were served at the same time everyday.

      Another interesting thought! Thankyou, hope you're enjoying the videos!

    I think I read that these ponds were used to wash the horses. Don’t quote me 🙂

      Oooo that's an interesting turn of events! Will have to ask some of the locals.

    That looks like a slave/servant bell.

    Don't keep dead trees, the treehouse wouldn't be worth the time, it is too dangerous as it is. a real fire hazard and in a heat wave it's size endangers all the other trees should it somehow catch fire....My Dad was in charge of reforestation in the largest National forest in the US and I learned a lot growning up, the trees that were dead in the wild were cut out as well for many very good reasons.

      We're not 100% sure its actually dead. But when we seek advice we will do what's best for the longevity of the chateau and the grounds.

    It takes 100 years for trees to grow what a shame

    • @ChateaudeBruges
      @ChateaudeBruges  2 роки тому

      A real shame, but their positioning leaves us very little option.
