The CHÂTEAU Gates | Creating a Grand Entrance. Ep 86
Bonjour à tous,
This week at the chateau, Ash and Tony learn a new skill and give the two new sets of gate posts at each end of the road a coat of render to finish them off which look amazing, plus we finally get to fit the new pair of gates at the entrance. it has been almost 10 months of work to create the road by hand but it is almost finished and it looks incredible.
Save up to £300 on all the products (except the new arrivals), get yourself an EcoFlow for this winter (Nov.14 - Nov. 28)!

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 have grown to love this family. I wish I was young and in shape to spend a few weeks helping on odd jobs, just to get to know them and spend some time with Tracy with my shovel.

That makes 2 of us! Would love to spend a few weeks or more volunteering. This family is my favorite chateau channel!
No need to apologize for sponsorships!! Small renovations of a normal home are expensive and you all are on a massive scale renovating so I'll watch all the sponsoeships and buy anything I'm interested in to support your efforts!! You're doing a great job!!!

Thank you Amy 😊😊
You tube is all I have to watch. Wishing you a wonderful Thursday.
I hope your apology for sponsorships didn’t come from any criticism. Not only do they help your family build an incredible home for yourselves, but they allow all of us to watch you do it. I’d also like to point out to the one critic who may read my comments (haha), That château is not only your home and not just a cool project to watch, but it’s also a job for all four adults. None of you are being paid to work outside the Château grounds, and I imagine this is another large reason that your sponsorships are necessary. You’re a wonderful family and your vlogs our a very important part of my week. Thank you ounce again for allowing us into your lives and letting us be part of your adventure.

Bonjour, je suis française et je vous suis depuis le début. Je tenais à vous remercier tous du fond du cœur pour tout le travail accompli. Je vous suis reconnaissante vous amis anglais et autres étrangers de votre investissement pou sauver le patrimoine français . 💋
Such Hard Work and Family Craftmanship between you is Just Incredible, When You First Purchased Her In the Freezing Cold and you Living in Caravan’s , I’m Sure you Thought What Have We Done 😢, Because Of Family Bond , You Did it , Love ❤️ you all 👌👍👏👏👏👏 ‘
Oh my goodness, that looks fantastic. And Lord Patrick leads the way down the drive to install the gates. Just delightful. Amazing!
I have loved watching your family transform the chateau; your all amazing!
This must have been one of your most gratifying projects. I know it was a huge amount of work, but this last stage didn't take terribly long but made such a significant difference in the Chateau!
Wow! Now the entrance looks completely professional and looks like it's always been there. Great job, y'all!

I’m so pleased for you guys !! Love you all!! ❤ Thanks for making our day!!!
As ever, it's the attention to detail that impresses. No mean feat to get the pillars positioned so accurately that the gates, even when hung on their hinges, fitted together so perfectly. 🥰
Tony seems to know how to do EVERYTHING. Ash is no slouch either. I am ready to see some lights on the pillars

Great job on the front entrance and gates everyone! Looks fabulous and worthy of the chateau. I know your talking lights at the entrance but my immediate thought was Christmas trees either side of the gates on the way in. I think it would look amazing!❤❤
This is so very exciting. We love to follow your process. As fellow chateau people, we appreciate all your hard work. We are so grateful for our friendship. And we love gates! Love from Colombe.

The Chateau is coming out amazing with all the hard work blood sweat and tears your family has put into this but one day you can sit back and relax and enjoy the beauty you have put back and for many generations to come thank you so much for sharing your beautiful videos And the gates are beautiful
You've all done a great job with new Entrance. It looks fantastic 👍❤
Unbelievable how much work you did to create this magnificent new entrance and drive. In hindsight it always seems easier, but after having watched ALL your vlogs, I know that every little step was a massive job. Keep in mind that there were no construction companies involved! Hope you feel as proud and happy as we are! It looks amazing👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I’ve been watching your amazing family ever since the trailer. I’ve never missed an episode and am so inspired by the hard work and enthusiasm that you all put into each project. The gates are amazing, just like the rest of everything you’ve done. I hope one day I’ll be able to visit your chateau! ❤❤❤
Tony and Ash you work well together don’t you ?It looks so good. ❤❤
Lord Patrick looks so adorable when trotting down the grand driveway 😂😂🤣🤣😁😁
That certainly is a busy road behind you.
The new entrance looks SO awesome!

Can’t wait for the 12 days of Christmas!! Thanks for taking us along with you.
Getting the measurements right for the gate and getting it to fit perfectly was magnificent!
It took a lot of hard work,sweat, and muscle aches. Looks gorgeous.
You have arrived !!!!!
First time I have ever seen rendering without wetting the surface you are rendering. Guess that saves time? Such a great team. You seem to work flawlessly. Each person just seamlessly contributes.

Thanks Veda. Yes this render is aqua-phobic I believe, so the surface has to be dry to apply :)

What a fantastic and amazing job you all did to the entrance . The drive up to the Chateau has that “WOW FACTOR “ 👍 👍 👍
Congratulations on the gates and the entire drive. They look spectacular and is a magnificent testament to a concerted team effort.
The entrance looks amazing and glad to hear that your drainage works
Yogurt and moss, run through a blender is very good at painting areas you want moss to grow. Good luck and it's looking great guys....

The gates looks fantastic. All you need now is a lovely post box for the mailman and it will be complete. Excited to move on the the next thing. I’m so enjoying following along on your journey. ❣️❣️❣️
WOWSERS!!! It was evident that the gates were going to look something special as you were working on the rendering of the entrance but when the camera did the reveal, the turning left off the lane and then.........OMG!! Totally amazing guys. Anyone coming to the chateau now will know that they are going to see something special beyond. Once again, I applaud your hard work, vision and craftsmanship. 👏👏👏

Fantastic job on the entrance walls and gate! Teamwork gets the work finished in half the time. The gate is gorgeous and looks so professional! Looking forward to you refinishing the other gate down the driveway. A-okay!
The gates ans walls look wonderful, congratulations. All the hard work with making the road and now the walls and gates. Just amazing. Thankyou for sharing it all with us. X
You need to reduce the traffic noise so you can enjoy being outdoors. Maybe a hedge or possibly a wall to block the sound. You have a beautiful home, you don’t want your serenity disturbed by traffic noise.
The entrance gates looks amazing guys! Well done as you all work so hard restoring this beautiful chateau. Fabulous ❤️

Love your channel. DISCOVERY PLUS!!!! WOW!!! Congratulations.
I thought you were done before, but of course, because you have such great taste, you took it to the next level!!!
When you finish with this Chateau, oh what am I saying! I love watching you all from the Isle of Wight where nothing ever happens. You are so much more fun than watching passing cruise ships, cargo ships, good Lord.
Is there anything you people can’t do? Really, between you all you have all the skills you could ever dream of. It’s looking fabulous!
Love your family, been watching since day 1 and looking forward to 12 days of Christmas and those beautiful gates decorated with Christmas lights !❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏🤶🎅👌👍🇦🇺

The gates and entrance are fabulous. Do you need a nice chateau sign now? Great job everyone. No problem with sponsored vlogs, great to see. Christmas lights sound like fun.
The entrance with the new gates looks fabulous! 🤗
This journey is truly team work! Congratulations..❤
Well done, it all looks brilliant.
The gates and wall look absolutely fantastic. I am so pleased to be watching you.
Love gates I have gates with similar details but yes they give a great statement your look fabulous and very French. ❤❤❤❤
You just need a lovely sign before that gate now to really set it all off, and to match your gates.
A spectacular new entrance with a gorgeous new gate. Looks like it was always been there. The drone shots with the mist looked magical. Congrats on this important milestone 🎉🎊😍😘
Just wow, the entrance is so fantastic now. Love the gates, very beautiful 💗

Looks so much better with the concrete coating, and the gates are phenomenal! another masterpiece at Lalacelle. Bien Fait!
How amazing this looks! Seems the weather is still working in your favor so you could complete this. So much time, effort and dedication to making your chateau a grand statement is paying off. It's such a pleasure to see everything coming together.
It’s amazing that you can do this all before winter comes!!
Great scenic views,the one with mist I the valley is spooky. Lively and driving music. Hard work and fantastic results. Super video, well done all!
Gates and walls for entrance look superb
Looks Spectacular what a great entrance Simply Magical
I returned from France on October 3rd without any idea about what was going on.(with Lalacelle)I wanted to look into château’s in France and stumbled along this wonderful family and their journey. I have binge watched all the episodes starting from the beginning, completing this one yesterday. (I did not want to jump ahead and ruin the experience) I am so impressed with your hard work and dedication, showing everyone that anyone can do something grand if they put the time and effort into it! Thank you for being an inspiration. I will continue to watch your journey as I feel like I know you and care about you all! I just wish I knew before we ventured to France because I would have definitely stopped in to help! I will make a point of doing so in the very near future! ❤😊
So Very Beautiful!!👍🏻👍🏻🥰🥰
New to your channel. Everything you do is spectacular, and inspires my 72-year-old self to kick my own butt out into my own little space and WORK!!!
Great job to all of you. The entrance looks so good.
Ahh, sunshine, rendering and dog supervision. Nice job on the entrances, guys! Can't wait to see y'all on Discovery + on Dec. 5. Glad to hear the drain is working as intended. 🥰
Looking good!!! A perfect addition to the end of your “street”. Can’t wait to see the transformation of your 3rd floor
