The kitchen is the heart of any home and yet this will only be for Terry and Ash it still needs to be special and fit in with the room, plus this will be the only kitchen in the chateau till the family restore the main kitchen in the basement.
Tracy, Terry & Ash go shopping searching for that perfect kitchen to go on the third floor, but what style will there go with and will it fit?

About us,
We are a family from the North-East of England following our dream to restore a beautiful abandoned french Château. We discovered the heart stopping Château De Lalacelle in summer of 2020, this beautiful architectural monument Is set in the countryside of North-West France.
The moment we visited the Château we all fell in love, from the beautiful sweeping landscape and forests, to its stunning untouched interiors and magnificent spiral staircase in the turret.
Unfortunately Château De Lalacelle has been abandoned for a number of decades so will need a lot of restoration and DIY.
Please subscribe and follow our families journey, with the up’s and down’s in moving from the UK to rural France and restoring this beautiful building to its former glory.

I like the natural wood look, and please let Ash have his sink.
Thanks Margie :)
Lol I agree
Yes, Ash, you normally don't ask for much. 😄 We are cheering for your sink.
I vote the sink for Ash🥰
@@ashleywaters7198 Ash, Is it the farmhouse/apron sink style you like so much or the material it is made of? It looked like a stone. It was difficult to see the details? I couldn’t really see much from the brief shots of them from the video. Hope everyone is well.
I just built a new kitchen myself. I would highly recommend ALL Drawers on the lower units. No crawling on your knees to find things in the back is a game changer.
Also, any pre-made cabinets can be fit to any space and drawer fronts can be customized to get the look you want.
It's always worth it to spend a little more to get what you really want. A kitchen is not the space to cut corners.
Good luck, I know it will be beautiful
Thanks Stew :)
I wholeheartedly agree about having drawers below the work counters. Kneeling down to locate what you need is a bummer! This I know from living in several contractor-grade built homes (60+ years) where they are cutting costs to increase profit. Lucky that you can customize!!
Yes drawers. I have had them since 2013. Also look into induction cooktop or portable induction piece. Cooks things quickly and burner doesn’t heat up a small space. Also look into an air fryer. There are charts for suggested times of various meats, vegetables etc to cook.
Thank you very much, that is what I was thinking of, just creating our own 🥰
When I put a new kitchen in, it turned out to be much less expensive to have it custom built than to buy from a store. Everything was built to fit my specific space - which your kitchen definitely needs. Plus - no compromises, you get to customize everything.
Thanks Lora. We’re getting some quotes and hoping that might be the case :)
I had 3 wide drawers put in my kitchen when I needed to renew it.
Can't tell you what a massive difference it makes
Thanks Carolyn
I totally agree. Big drawers are the way to go.
The kitchen Ash liked, stunning and perfect with the beams
Thanks Wee Sandy :)
Pot drawers are a great thing here in North America. It really saves digging around in a dark bottom cabinet. I love mine . They’re all drawers on the bottom.
I liked the industrial kitchen. And i like the sink from the last one. As a retired cabnet maker i sure wish i could come over and blend these kitchens together and make the perfect kitchen for you.
Thanks Lynn! We wish you could too 😂😂
Guys - bring her over!
Guys, we restored a Grade II Listed Georgian house in Malvern Worcestershire before moving to Devon. I built the kitchen from scratch. I used 2x1 inch roofing battens for the frame (light sanding) 3/4 ply for the carcass sides and inside shelves chose the perfect sink and taps. For the worktops 2x 3/4 thick 2ft wide pine, nice moulding on front and oiled the tops. Wife chose the doors which were painted olive green. The wall tiles were Pilkington crackle dark green glazed tiles and we purchased a Range master bottle green with gold dial cooker. I made open shelf units for the walls and found a old school glazed wall cupboard which we lit up. We saved a fortune and was very pleased with the finish. Wish you well in the quest for the perfect kitchen.
Please let Ash have his choice of sink !
Thanks Mary :)
I like the double sink, with warmer wood colors for the cabinets.
Give Ash the sink he wants. He does not ask for much.
Poor Ash! Terry has such strong and specific design ideas (albeit spot-on and beautiful, I might say) that my perception is that Ash seldom gets his way. Come on, Terry, let Ash pick out the kitchen and sink.😉
Ash will get the sink he want, don’t worry 🥰
Ash has amazing taste I love his choice
He really does 🥰🥰
There is no reason to compromise on anything. With the right carpenter you can have just what you want. We redid our kitchen in 2017 have have what we desire.
I don't know how things are sold in France but usually you choose a style of cabinet and then choose a stain or paint from a selection and the sink is a separate purchase so you can have whatever one you want. So if you have take what you see then a custom made or bespoke kitchen would be the way to go. I'd go for country/farm house for the Chateau since it's first a home, second a old Chateau and not a large kitchen nor in any way a industrial kitchen or space.
Thanks Steven. It’s a bit different. We can go down that route but what we’ve seen it can be pricy. We shall see. We are due some quotes this week :)
Ash, is right about the sink that he so admire, the name or style here in the USA it's called a " Country sink " and it would go fantastic with that all wood cabinets. Now I'll go finish the video.
Thank you very much 🥰
You are the right people that are restoring that Chateau
and i like this one better, i like the industrial vibe, modernly rustic if there is such a vibe
I love this one 😍😍
Please go for a deeper farmhouse style sink. The one you show (black) is very shallow.
Induction cooktop! I love mine, as fast and as hot as gas but super easy to clean. My biggest tip - all drawers. No more grovelling on the floor hunting around n the back of bottom cabinets.
Thanks Kate :)
LOVE DRAWERS!!!
Keep in mind you can mix and match things like countertops and sinks.
The quote will be high because it’s quality and custom but you’ll love that it’s perfect for the space. Your kitchen is very unique with lots of angles so a prefab kitchen will be difficult to retrofit.
Thank you very much 🥰
Make sure you get wide pan drawers so good to have under hob
Thanks Kath
The best features I’ve noticed in new kitchens is the transition from doored lower storage to deep drawers. It’s so much nicer to pull out a drawer and have full access to the contents. With doored storage, you’re down on hands and knees to find whatever is in the back of the cupboard. Please consider the additional expense, which is worth it over the long term. 🌺
Dont rush it you both need to be happy with it. And you each have different needs for the space. Terry needs it harmonious and styled to fit and Ash needs it practical. You will know when its the right ine. Take it slow and be sure….…
I think that you will figure it out even if you get a few stock pieces and customize them with elements you like yourselves even the metal and barn door and metal label holder . You tube and furniture flippers add those elements . Don’t forget old wood library cards files . For industrial look soft close drawers the big roll around tool boxes are being used which wood cabinetry for the farm house industrial look. No matter what route you take it will be lovely
Thank you very much 🥰
How exciting -- shopping for a new kitchen! I am sure it will be something unique given the decorating flair that Terry and Ash both have :)
You know us to well 🥰
What about 3 antique pieces. a large buffet (cutting hole for a sink). A large hutch or wardrobe (which you'd need to add shelves),that would hold everything (dishes, pots ,pans, food etc), then a table against a wall for a countertop . Perfect chateau kitchen and one of a kind ! peace&love from America
Thank you. We had antique Welsh dressers in our old house. Still haven’t decided what we will do here 😂😂
I did that in a kitchen and loved it. We had wallpaper and open shelves above the sink. A big antique buffet and China cabinet worked well in the space. We had one pantry cabinet from a big box store in the corner. Of course it wasn't a chateau but simply a Victorian bungalow. We did eventually put in a new kitchen for resale but I liked the old one better.
When I renovating my cabin and the store did not have the stock , I asked the manger can I buy the display. Got a 90 dollar farm house tap for 20 dollars. Got a 150 dollar bathroom light for 40 dollars , tell you that manger love me.
Thanks Mary 😉
With your range a really great accessory is a downdraft, helps to eliminate grease & steam from cooking.
For your space definitely go custom made and go for all drawers they are so much more practical, you get more usable space and things don’t get lost at the back of the cupboards.
Thank you very much 🥰
When we did our kitchen, we worked with a kitchen designer who sold furniture quality cabinets. Twenty years later my cabinets look great.
I love the natural wood and I hope Ash gets his sink!!❤️🥰
He will do bless him 🥰
Open shelving collects dust. You will definitely need upper cabinets as the room is so small. Storage is utmost. I’m sure you can get the “farm sink” put in whatever cabinets you order. Hefty handles on cabinets to go with the big beams
Thanks Chris :)
Thinking harmoniously for the chateau period a farmhouse kitchen would be the best fit. The dark bases with a french piano range would be gorgeous with lighter uppers or even open shelves for display if you are neat….double farmhouse sink would tie in.
Watch wood work surface around sink. Gets wet n blackens.
Make sure you keep it dry and very very well sealed
Thanks Kath. Will do 😉
This a beautiful family, happy ang peaceful. They have unity, love and respect for each other
Thank you very much 🥰
Definitely go for the big sink. If you do a lot of cooking you can clean your big pots so easily.
Thank you :) I like to use all the pots when I cook 😂😂
Do an accent wall, the color of Ashley’s sweater if you get the real wood. I love the sink Ashley likes.
I love that colour :)
Great minds think alike , glad you have picked someone local , you'll get want you want in the end lads xx 🤞🏼🥰
Thanks Yvonne. We always try to when we can :)
Ash, I hope you get your farm sink. Do deep drawers for the bottom cabinets. They are best for pots and pans, small appliances and even your plates, platters, etc. Your beams look more gray than yellow/brown. You might want slate gray cabinets. Whatever you choose I’m sure it will be beautiful. xx
Thank you very much 🥰
Use your vertical space even with skinny cabinets, every bit of storage helps
Thank you very much 🥰
The sink Ash likes is it blue stone Pierre Bleu I had a solid sink and work tops in Pierre Bleu with oak oiled with grey oil when we lived in Brussels. I loved it as a sink it's the best l have ever had BUT as work tops they are beautiful but it is a soft stone not like granite or quartz so you have to have a chopping board and don't put hot pans on it and when it gets a bit dull you have to clean it and re oil it with linseed oil the company will tell you how to do it and you can get them cheaper if you have a more basic style you can also find them in salvage yards for good prices too.
But it was worth it I've moved many times to different countries in the last 40yrs but I loved that kitchen the most
Thanks Denise :) am sure we will find one we will love for many years too! X
I think the custom kitchen is such a better idea. Your kitchen is small and quirky. It needs a kitchen planned for all its unique characteristics! I know they can be pricey, but there’s one thing about custom you don’t have to do it all at the same time, Have the plan drawn decide which you can afford have him build that, then the next stage when the money is saved for the next part. I’d had my kitchen done like that at my lakehouse. The main part essentials first then the remained later. Worked great because after I got in there to work I changed my mind about how things worked for me.
Thank you very much 🥰
I worked in our family owned cabinet company for many years, mostly in finishing (paint ,stain and glazing), and my least favorite, sanding.
It takes time to decide and put a plan together and it’s also expensive, good luck.
Thank you very much 🥰
Please don't have grey, everybody has grey, that timber kitchen was gorgeous, try for a custom made one like that, it will be perfect for your tastes!!
Thank you very much 🥰
I agree! Grey is so overdone these days. It's such a depressing color, imo. Certainly not a color I'd want inside a cozy kitchen.
Here at the end of this video shows the beams look exactly like the wood of the kitchen set that Ash liked ! I believe it was described like "pine that had been painted"..but now the beams are a match to that wood...just an observation...good luck - lots to decide on..
Thank you very much 🥰
Mix and match components that you like and need. How do you work. How much do you cook. How many in kitchen during prep….check out the colour of your chateau stone and match up to that maybe and use some farmhouse and stone corbels under shelves above could look really period…
Who ever does the cleaning up....gets to choose the sink! I'm loving the ideas I'm seeing so far, take your time and think it through, it's all going to work out! Good luck 🍀 ☘
Thanks Jo!
Ash needs his sink. I loved the sink he showed in the last video. As far as cabinets, keep in mind that this is a kitchen and they will have to be washed often. If you get raw wood cabinets and don’t finish them, they will be difficult to clean.
Thank you very much 🥰
I like natural wood grain cabinets, last the test of time!
Poor Ash. If Tracy and Terry don't like it, he's out of luck. Or so it appears. Sorry. That's how it looks. The "we'll see" is another way to say, "I don't agree." I give Ash a lot of credit for his forbearance.
No not at all. We all beat ideas around with each other. I bring functionality to the table. Terry design and Tracy homely :) we make a great team that way and normally end up with something we all love :)
Okay, Ash. Stand corrected. That's not how it comes across.
Exciting times , cannot wait to see what decisions you make.
Thank you ☺️
Omg…did you see the clock on the side table
Haha. I didn’t notice it. Am sure Terry did 😉
Some of those sinks are awfully shallow. When I designed my kitchen I told the designer what I had that needed storage. Then they designed around that. I absolutely loved the design.
Thank you very much 🥰
Still with a little modern country with Ash’s Country white apron sink would look nice with a small narrow island!
Love the type of style you both are veering towards. Its in keeping with aura of the chateau...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Monica :)
Having done several kitchens over the years, I offer the following: Think long and hard about sliding doors, they can be annoying. Deep pot drawers are a godsend, they will keep you from burrowing in the back of lower cabinets. Amazon in Canada has the barndoor hardware kit for cabinets for under CA$100. If you get your cabinets custom made, the hardware could all be your choice.
You have such a unique space to fill so it will have to be a bit practical, boy you have so many things to think about on this one can't wait to see what you pick.
Yes the space and style make it quite different to get the right kitchen to fit 🥰
I agree with Ash, that is a light wood which will be good in a small kitchen.
Ash I like the kitchen you prefer. Terry the country kitchen is too country or rustic. You will find the perfect one. You both have a great eye for style and what will work in the chateau.
Ok...I love the 2nd place that you've gone to. I know you will find the perfect design there.
Thanks Cheryl :)
Make sure you get the draw slide closures that are soft self closing … so they don’t slam
Thank you very much 🥰
You should check to see if the sink base from the second option is available in the first option. I do love the second sink but the style of the first kitchen.
Thank you very much 🥰
I love the industrial kitchen cabinets
Thank you very much 🥰
I like the second one with the double sink
Thanks Peggy
I have to agree with Ash and his choice . I think it’s perfect 🫶🏼
Thank you very much 🥰
I agree with the sink Ash wants...just add the cabinetry Terry likes in the stain that matches the beams and it should be perfect. All drawers on the lower built ins seems to be the way to go anymore. They are definitely more practical. Good luck gentlemen!
Thank you very much 🥰
I think Benoit might be able to help you!😊 I loved Terry’s choice with Ashes sink. I also think those two lanterns on the counter would make lovely lights hanging from the ceiling. Another job for Terry! Looking forward to seeing your final choices.
Thanks Shelley :)
How about Michael Petherick?
I hope the custom kitchen design is financially feasible for you. You would be happier and Ash could have his sink. 😊
Thank you very much, yes hope it works out 🥰
Ash, had fly traps grew in the wild ate flys, wasps, yellow jackets etc in SC off of Ashley River named for Lord Ashley in 1600's other side of Charleston is the Cooper River for Lord Cooper!
Hope you get your sink too! Enjoy!
Haha. Amazing! Thank you!
Go white with a double sink and natural wood. Yes rustic and maybe both butcher block and a light Quartz counter. Quartz is sturdier than marble. Marble is fantastic for creating dough for brioche and croissants. Rolling out cookies and pies. So u could just do a section of marble with wood. So excited to see what you do. ❤❤❤❤❤
Feliz trabalho! 😘😘
I recently remodeled my kitchen. I like haven’t lots of drawers because things get shoved in the back of shelves. Please let Ash choose the sink.
Also check the Wayfair store. It’s mail order I got my sink and handles there. Good luck!
I like modern kitchen the contrast would look really nice.
Thank you very much 🥰
Glad you took Tracy along. ❤️👍🏻🙏🏻
The kitchen looks amazing with the primer and paint on it. So Bright!!
Thank you very much 🥰
Hope the quote comes in at an afordable price ??? I am happier with bespoke when I can afford it . The sink from your local is wonderful I can see what you love about it Ash also think about the height of your bench tops I am 5"7" and had mine raise by 50cm as low benches tables etc give me a sore back. I cannot stand for a long period any more so had my sink cupboard modified so I could sit at the sink to do the washing up (Have no need of a dishwasher). Open the doors and put my feet on bottom shelf, middle shelf was shortened to allow for knees. I purchased one those ergonomic draftsmens adjustable chairs to sit on . Makes it much easier to work in the kitchen . All my cabinets go to the floor too, or the roof, I do not like cabinets on legs or ones that do not go to the ceiling as cleaning both is a problem . In my case that is because of age but remember none of us gets younger. Cheers Guys Lana Australia
Hopefully a helpful suggestion: If you are planning on hand-washing your dishes it would be better to have a double basin sink rather than one basin and a drainboard. One basin to wash in, one basin to rinse in, drain on the counter. If you are using a dishwasher, then it makes no difference. Best wishes!
Thank you very much 🥰
Only have minimal cupboard doors have more deep drawers with soft closing save your backs . If your on a budget IKEA have great looking kitchens in the style your looking for and the almost come in all colours . You must talk to the shop assistants to ease your curiosity rather than go away still not knowing about what you see and like.🇦🇺🙋♀️
Thank you very much 🥰
My husband and I went through this kitchen make over thing last year it can take awhile to and fro ing it’s a big investment so you need to get what you like and want and have no regrets .🙋♀️🇦🇺
Ficou otimo!
Yep, natural wood, textured baskets, subdued color palette. Slight modern industrial touches (we have galvanized tin trim in our kitchen & living room).
Looking forward to the whole lalaselle house walk-thru!🙆🏻♀️
Thank you very much 🥰
Thanks!
Bless you! Thank you so much!
Like Ashes pick...the color wood may look good with the beams.
Thanks Jan
Als jullie je keuken zelf bouwen, dan kun je deze inrichten zoals je dat zelf wilt. Alleen zul je zelf veel moeten doen om de kosten laag te houden. Je kunt dan zelf kiezen wat voor gootsteen, fornuis, oven, kraan, of je laden of deuren wilt. Ik heb zelf laden en dze zijn heel erg praktisch in gebruik. Kijk ook naar materiaal wat makkelijk is schoon te maken.
Since your beams are all darker once they have been oiled, a lighter wood would keep the focus on the beams. I like a farmhouse sink, and I’ve had butcher block wood counter tops for 8 years. They’re not hard to keep up. I used a mix of custom and pre- made and did a lot of the work myself. Whatever you decide, you two are the ones that have to live with it, so take your time and get it right
Give Ash his sink, it can be done and the one you picked out fits in the best. Can you order extra cabinets to build in fridge? You guys have so much talent I know you could make it work!!
Thank you very much 🥰
The black frame with the wood looks really nice
Thanks Thom
Like the sink but the kitchen upstairs needs light wood and those glass cupboards would add visual depth to the room. Love thoughtful planning.
I LOVE the unit with the sliding black doors. Ashes sink would be lovely with it. I agree you need large lower drawers for sauce pans. My favourite day out looking for Kitchens.
Good morning from Canada ❤
Hello hello good morning
Good morning 🥰
So much fun watching you two shop!
Ash had a look on his handsome face of excitement speaking about the kitchen he loved. So cute!👍🤗🤗😍😍
Ok I change my mind.. I like Terry’s choice with the natural wood with dark trim but Ash’s sink 😄😜
Thank you very much, I think that is what we like 🥰
Yes love that kitchen Ash!!!
Thanks Connie :£
Yes to the sink for Ash
Thanks Heather :)
No pallet wood please. Ash must have his sink! Good luck with whatever you choose 🦘🦘🦘
Thank you very much 🥰
What ever y’all decide
The kitchen will look amazing
Looking forward to seeing how the kitchen looks
God bless
Love from West Central Texas 💜
Thank you very much 🥰
I'm with ash i love that sink
Thanks Huw
It is a difficult decision. I enjoyed viewing your choices along with you. I know what ever you both choose will be perfect.
I'm anxious to see the final work! 💕
So am I 😂😂
How’s Jonathan’s homework tonight?
So exciting to look at kitchen ideas!!
It is. And frustrating 😂😂
I’m sure you can customize all the kitchens you’ve looked at with different sinks and paint colors.
Really like the elements Ash chose
