Thanks to our growing Patreon community, we are able to aid the cost in some of the Window Repairs!
Patreon funding goes directly toward renovating the historical Chateau de Lesigny!
Special thanks to our dear Patrons: Andrea, Jesse, Bernadette, Theo, and Morgan for your outstanding support of this Beau Chateau!

Join us, Daphne and Ian, as we embark on our new chateau renovation projects! This week, we lay the tile in our bathroom just in time for Benoit and Vincent to return and help us install our first set of windows on the Hunter's Lodge! We get a new partnership for our wedding venue and they let us take a rental car for a test drive. Vincent brings his professional metal detector so we can try it our around the chateau and in the deepest point of our medieval dungeon!
Our "beau chateau" (The 500-year-old, Chateau De Lesigny), is located near Paris, France. Most of the structures around the chateau domain need a full restoration, so we are investing everything we have into making the property thrive! We are learning more about french culture and developing new skills along the way!
As a French/American UC Berkeley graduate in Agriculture (Daphne), and a U.S. Air Force Tactical Response Force Veteran/ Kinesiologist (Ian), we share a love for challenges and adventure. We have a long road ahead of us and we are excited to share the experience with you!
You can support our renovation projects by joining our Patreon Community, where you can also gain access to exclusive videos and behind the scene access with Daphne and Ian! All patron funding is used to renovate this historical French Chateau. Every patron is paramount to our chateau renovations and we thank you all tremendously!

Benoit is SO cute! Dancing around in joy, playing with the dog… I just love Benoit!❤
It explains why Ziggy Le Fleur🐕 loves Benoit so much.
I am so impressed with your videography skills. The drone following your car... such a cool shot! Your videos are wonderful to watch!
Love love love Benoit and Vincent!!! "Scooby-Doo laugh" so funny. Love the treasure hunt and its so nice to see Daphne having fun as well as the boys
We all had a great time playing with the metal detector 😄
That WAS fun!
Metal detecting was such a good idea! I can't wait to see what else you guys find there. Benoit's happy dance was the best part.
Benoit’s happy dance looks well practiced. Maybe next time I will shoot it in slow motion 👌
Metal detection is actually quite heavilly regulated in France. Since you live on a chateau it would be considered a place of historical importance and you do need to ask authorisations and to be supervised by an archeologist.
Anything you find of high historical importance can be claimed by the state (legally you have to tell about anything you do find).
If you did none of that, this video is a legal proof of illegal activity, kind of driving at 200km/h on the road and putting it on youtube, maybe fun but illegal...
@@trthibI bet you’re really fun at parties
@@trthib there is always a narc ready to tattle.
You guys could make a whole channel of metal detecting at the Chateau with sprinkles of Benoit dancing lol! I loved this.
Ian, can't tell you how many times I've clocked myself in the noggin during renos! I feel for you, brother!
I know it’s insanely hard work but the chateau life you show us is so charming!
So great to see Benoit and Vincent together at your Chateau. Exciting improvements. What a talented craftsman he is and so happy he now has Vincent as part of the team.
This was SO fun !! Thanks for taking us along ! Looking forward to the next treasure hunt😃
Tiling is a head banging, knee knocking good time- and EXCELLENT drone work! Wow! Such great shots with the car.
Thank you so much! Our knees appreciate your support! If you look closely, you will see Ian wearing his drone goggles in the passenger seat on a few shots 😄 If you can’t tell, he loves old cars and was overjoyed to make a little montage this week!
@@TheBeauChateau Really well done- and I noticed that the shot composition in the window replacement segment was also top notch! A+ you two!
So wonderful seeing Benoit and how well he is doing!,
It is so wonderful to see Benoit working again.
I can't begin to imagine what treasures the moat may hold. What a fun hobby! Also, It's nice to see the bathroom starting to come together. I feel your aches and pains though! My husband and I were working on our pool house bathroom just yesterday and it was hard getting out of bed this morning 😂
Right?! cramped spaces require acrobatics we weren’t ready for!
Funny you should mention the moat, because we will be using a big magnet to go fishing in it next! 😄
I always want people to explore old properties like yours with tons of history. Lots of things lost and discovered and who knows, maybe a treasure or two 👍🏼 Thanks for the video
Love seeing Benoit twice in one day! Glad he’s all better!
Benoit Happy Dance was cute. It's nice to see him work again doing the things he loves to do.
it was fun to have benoit and vincent back and the treasure hunt was a diverting adventure. please keep it up occasionally.
glad the bath and hunter's lodge are making progress
thank you for an enjoyable episode
Metal detecting is so much fun! I live on the east coast of South Florida. After a hurricane, it's awesome to go metal detecting on the beach. Many things wash us from old ship wrecks, gold, coins, jewelry, etc!
I love your videos,but watching you detect for old treasures is the best!As an avid detectorist, I am fascinated by the history that lies beneath historic properties such as yours! I hope you continue detecting and look forward to your finds. Detecting the dungeon was brilliant as many people hid their valuables in places like that. Happy Hunting ❤
Thank you! We only had about 15 minutes in the dungeon this time, but there is plenty more to search! We will also try using a very powerful magnet like a fishing line in the moat! 😄
Ben is such a cool character
Benoit
Fun! There must be so many fascinating things to find. Imagine what all the ladies promenading in the garden over the centuries might have dropped?
You guys are amazing. You have the prettiest chateau and you are doing a great job of fixing her up. Love to watch you both working, laughing and loving together xox
The new windows are very exciting! It will probably make quite a difference in winter. The metal detecting was so FUN!! ❤❤❤
Truly a delightful video. As someone who's installed many tiled areas, my knees winced in remembrance!
Yes, our knees are learning all about tiling 🤓
@@TheBeauChateau Lots more tiling to do? Knee pads help so much (ones for gardening or for sports such as rollerblading). Save the knees!!!
There are so many things I love about your videos. Today, though, I'm obsessed with Daphne's wardrobe.
She knows the difference between thinset and grout!!!!
My tile laying heart is soaring!
❤️🪽She’s a keeper! Lucky man but I’m sure he already knows that. 😂
It was wonderful to see Benoit doing well!! And yes, metal detecting can be addictive! lol.
La détection des métaux, plus particulièrement dans le donjon est incroyable.
That car looks amazing in front of the chateau ❤❤❤
Don't feel too bad Ian. A couple of months ago, I was detailing the interior & exterior of my Mini SUV, and almost every single freaking time that I leaned back into the back seats to clean, I whacked my head off the dang door frame! You can tell that I don't have to get in and out of the back usually lol. You'd have thought the added knots on my head would have given me some extra protection. But, alas, I think it just kept making my head slightly higher to ensure I'd keep banging it!!!!! uugghh. Felt like Charlie Brown, and the car was Lucy & the football! Hahahahaha!!!
Love the friendships you make with everyone you work with. All the little things you find could be put in a glass case for display.
Benoit and Archea omg they are such best friends.
I look forward to each of your videos. I too am renovating my house over here in Texas, so I understand the PAIN :). Loved the "French music" --- nice touch.
Thank you! We are fully expecting our knees to work more when we get to the next bathroom 😉
im officially inlove with this team. the dynamic between the 4 of u guys is jst amazing. the jokes banters, genuine laughs, chill vibes, i enjoy watching the 4 of u together. oh and benoit is such a sweetheart!
One of my favorite hobbies is metal detecting. The oldest thing I've found is a compass from 1923.
Renovations are fun in there own right but metal detectors are next level!!
SPEED BUMP . So Funny. Benoit Le Grand Jambon.
Love from Canada
Now Metal detecting around a very old Chateau would be amazing .
So great to see Benoit using his craft again!
The metal detecting could provide some very valuable finds that will go a long way to helping with the renovations! I hope you get your own metal detector! How fun. I could watch those videos all day long!
Always a hidden treasure watching your videos! Thank you.👀
My husband would love to help detect that whole area, lol.
How fun and fascinating!
It was so much fun! We only covered a tiny percentage of the chateau domain, so there will surely be future metal detecting 😉
Super cool that you actually found multiple things!
Maybe you could display them in a curio cabinet in the chateau that was so much fun seeing what you found
We loved the treasure hunt and Benoit playing with the dog😊😊
Great vlog!!!!!❤
It has everything... DIY, Beniot, Archea, jewelry, treasure and chateau!
Great episode! You always do such a great job filming. 🦋
Love metal decting, and it was fun to watch! Great finds! It would really neat to find a nice glass display case to put in one of the Chateau rooms to display your finds. 🦋
So happy to see Benoit so well
All fab but Ian is defo the star of this channel 😂. Goofy geek and very fit 💪🏼
Yes please do show more metal detecting, that would be cool to see more, loving your videos ❤
What an enjoyable video to watch. Benoit was so happy to be working. Always a joy too watch him at work. 😊
We have to buy that man helmut,....poor guy I feel his pain.Floor is beautiful!Enjoy the summer Cheers from Connecticut
Its amazing what you guys have found!! Imagine the little trinkets that could be around the old fountain and around the old garden beds you both uncovered and where you guys uncovered the terrace area and in the moat!! That place housed so many meetings and gatherings and was a bustling hive of activity everywhere. So many moments good and bad. So much history. Also many questions as to who dropped those items and why? Such great mysteries are always delicious 🥰🤣. Wonderful vlog. Always enjoying your guys content ❤❤❤❤❤
Searching for the treasures would be sooo much fun
You guys!! The cinematography just gets better and better. Are you sure you don't have a whole production crew working out there?! 😂 phenomenal job!
Thank you so much!! Ian is the camera man, audio guy, music dude and editor! He is always trying to make our videos better somehow 😊
Love the treasure! ❤ The bathroom is getting close to being done. 🎉
So fun waiting for another treasure hunt. ❤
😍Great vlog as always!! Also loved your music choices!💖
I love seeing Benoit happy and dancing around. What a super fun video. I loved the drone footage of you driving in that super cool car. The windows are great and congratulations on finishing laying the floor. xx
That car was so cute!!
Your bathroom floor looks great!!
It is SO good to see Benoit back working and having fun!! Yay!!
Fun finds on your property! I can only imagine what else you’ll find if you continue to do metal detecting all over your property!!
Love from Mary in SoCal 💗
You looked great in that car. It suits you. Benoit is always fun. Happy metal detecting.
I love those bathroom tiles. The new windows look awesome.❤
The shot of the car with the golden fields was gorgeous! Beautiful cinematography. Love the faux bois tiles!
Thank you! Ian was so excited to film a cool car for once 😄
Missed you
I'm only :30 into this episode and I'm already intrigued (just like I am every episode)
YES! 😉
@@TheBeauChateau for those of us that don't necessarily want to be on multiple platforms, are you planning on using UA-cam's subscription program?
That was fun thanks for sharing good work done this week ! Step closer to finishing the bathroom !😀😍
Thank you! We are so excited to use the new shower when it’s finished 😊
So happy for you that you have fun amongst all your hard work! Vincent & Benoit are a good team with you both!
What an exciting adventure!
Wow, you guys are almost at 70K! Congratulations.
Benoit looks great.
Benoit swinging the shovel 😂
When you find these things you can imagine their history with their owners. It's a part of the chateau's Memories that surfaces. These stuffs talk about their past.
I look forward to your videos every week. Just love what you doing. Good job and thanks
Benoit makes me smile !😊
Ahahahaha fun! Pretty good finds. You get the car and he gets a metal detector...😉
Love love love that car. Wouldn’t want to share it either. How cool 😎 to find those coins and buttons. Lovely to see Benoit and Vincent. Who knew you needed a hard hat to tile floors😂😂😂Thanks for sharing 😍😘
What a fun video with the metal detector.The bathroom floor is beautiful.
Wow, Daphne & Ian, that was so intresting!
Rikki Biermann, Pretoria, South Africa 🇿🇦
That’s awesome you found great antique ❤
How exciting. We have watched The Curse Of Oak Island for many years, It is amazing as they have found artifacts from the Templars.
gold or yellow I love it. so your chateau is that close to a town. that is great. and you still have distance and views.
Trop cool la chasse aux trésors 👍🏻… plus drôle que les travaux 😂 n’est-ce pas ? 🤭
À bientôt ! … avec Benoît ?! 👍🏻
🌸🌸🌸
I love that car! It looks so fun to drive!
I’d say the dungeon would make a wonderful ‘future’ wine cellar. Where else but in France and in a chateau!
Hi Ian & Daphne 😍🌹
Tres formidable, all the work that you've been doing...the place is looking so good! And the classic cars are a fantastic addition to your wedding venue, love this!!
I can bet real green dinero that the metal detecting is going to turn up some very interesting further finds all around the garden areas too .. 🍀🍀💛 xx
Great vlog! Love the metal detecting! Thanks !
One day I will visit this Chateau. It's my favorite so far! 🙌
Bonjour Daphane and Ian, this was so much fun to watch, and see what treasures were uncovered. I can't wait until you do it again. I could watch all day. However, the bathroom floor is coming along beautifully, you two have worked really hard on it. I am so happy to see Benoit back to his normal laughing self, I am also happy he has Vincent. What a great video. Thanks so much for sharing. Love from N.Y.
That was soooo fun!!!! Oh please do more 😊🎉🎉🎉
We are so glad you liked it! We have only checked a tiny portion of the property, so plenty more detecting in the future 😉
That Car! You do look good driving it Daphne. No sharezies lol Benoit having so much fun with the dog and dancing around was a joy to see. Yeah new windows, you will be toasty warm this winter. Love the way you ended in Dungeon with a to be continued down there.. I look forward to your next dungeon hunt.
love your films. PLS continue. Sture.😍
🌷🌹🥀🌺🌸🌻 I always look forward to your beautiful videos! Scritches for Arkea!
Pretty soon you will have your own little museum on the property from all of the found items! Very cool!
Incredible!! Thank you for sharing with us.
Stay safe, watching the news about France is 💔
That looks a Fiat Spider! My mom ordered one from the factory in Italy in 1966 and had it shipped to New York in the summer of 1967. It was a red convertible with slanted front lights. Our family drove from Vancouver, BC,Canada to New York to pick it up. On the way back we went to Expo 1967 in Montreal. Fond memories.
It is a beautiful car! We could not stop smiling while cruising around our village… someday we hope to get something similar for ourselves! Ian prefers old American cars, but we both like this little Fiat 😊
Yes do more metal detecting ! So much fun to watch
Its so great to see Benoit back on your videos, he has such a wonderful sense of humour and brightens any day. And how exciting looking for treasure on your property 😀
Honestly, I'd be playing with the furballs too, Benoit!
Great idea - that car for weddings!
1969 Fiat 850 Spider. I had a red one in High School. Super light weight - the football players lifted it up an moved in front of the school steps. I got a call over the school PA telling me to move my car. LOL
