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 and Escape to rural France to restore this beautiful building to its former glory.

    Perhaps another strong large planter such as a smaller wagon could be painted a colour to draw the eye - the wood looks lovely but I personally would go for the white - you could consider matching up your mom's entrance door plus your two in a French Blue?

    I agree but the problem is that once you start painting wood then you are committed to continuing to rub down and repaint every few years. Wood varnish /stain/oil is quicker to re do.

    I think white for the cottage windows. I'm not sure if you thought about it yet but as you will be receiving guests in the future ( unless guests would be going to the cottage regularly) maybe a small fence around Tracey's cottage with sinage that marks it as private so no one wanders into a private space? That would be my preference for myself.

The new lamps will add so much to the warmth of the look of the chateau at night as you all walk around and also from down by the road. As far as the cottage windows, yes, paint them white to better tie in with the rest of what you are doing as right now it looks like they are just waiting to be done. Congrats on jobs well done! Rest well tonight and this week all.

    I can't wait to see some internal stairs going down to the basement! Seeing you asked... I prefer metal gates, rails, lamp posts etc to be dark grey/black - not white. The exterior timbers in white give the chateau country cottage look, if that's what you're after - but I think they would look better in the dark grey, which would be more elegant - and match that colour in the stone walls of the chateau It's not the subject/topics that are boring - people watch to see restoration - but seeing bits of work with no context, before and after, or known destination, or just a talking face for extended periods ... is a bit frustrating!

    I think you should swap the lamps, to be honest... Just because the smaller ones are actually replicas of old horse carriage lights, so they would fit on a carriage house - or cottage. They seem way to small for the Chateau. Whereas the larger ones are a better fit, sizewise. And they do look a bit more posh, if you ask me 😊

    I love both sets of lanterns and agree that the more simple lanterns would be lovely on the cottage, painted white and the window trim as well. The larger lanterns will look perfect on the chateau. ❤

    Truely think white is the best choice. Its best to having it to match the chateau. The lighting will really add warmth to greeting those who drive up to visit. Hello 👋🏻 from Southern California 🌴

    The lights will look good but I had hoped you'd use tiny lights inside the glass awning to create a glow. but no single source. This "carriage" style fixture throws little light. New topic - my father and I battled over white vs black ironwork. I painted everything iron black as part of house painting while he was on vacation. I returned from a college semester to find he had repainted everything iron white. Hope you don't tire of the white - it shows dirt and neglect more BUT it will probably appeal to women who are planning weddings. The neighbors preferred my black.

    Dear Lalacellers, I don't think the cottage doors and windows should be white. Here's why. The two buildings are similar in style, yet quite different. If the cottage woodwork is white it will feel as if the cottage has been separated, cut off, from the main chateau. But as a cottage it is a quite charming building with its own identity. I would suggest painting the wood a very pale blue. It's look would be like the wall lanterns you chose for the cottage, less formal but charming, The buildings will relate to each other but hold their own identity. See what you think. Maybe a test on the door?

    I think the windows would look better in white. Wood when it’s new is lovely, but it quickly starts to look grey and dull.

    I think the cottage windows would look good painted white. Restoration of the stairs to the cellar would be great. I found today's episode very interesting. It is such a pleasant change from all the gloomy news of all that is going on in the world. It is a little beacon of hope for the future.

    Painting the cottage windows white is definitely a good call. It should connect visually with the chateau as part of the same visual line. Also chipping off the old render and exposing the stone would also help the cause. I would also clean the stones in the walled garden to also visually connect the cottages with the chateau. It would look a lot more grandeur. Great work! Are there cobbles in that court yard? Would be beautiful if there are to uncover sure you’ll get to doing the great gravel from the drive.. Lately some beauful metal planters or Versailles planters will soften the facade. I would do it in apple green color.

    Yes, paint the windows and doors white on the cottage. I think it will brighten them up and help to match more closely those of the Chateau.
