I was, originally, following for the historic buildings, but now I am just as interested in your historical and ecological plans for the estate! Wow!

This video was a 10/10 in terms of production values, editing, story telling and filming. Just wow!

@The Great Chateau Restoration Project That is so weird. I think it is one of your best videos. I used to make videos and had a brand strategy company. Maybe the shift in tone was a surprise. Don't give up.

Don't worry, it will grow. I am a great fan of your channel 😊

I hope youre keeping good notes on this for YOUR BOOK explaining self sufficiency. Another source of income for you. ❤

You're both amazing people and I can't believe you've only got just under 32,000 subscribers : ( I find your vlogs highly entertaining and informative, your children and animals are adorable so what's not to like! Looking forward to the big announcement in the near future

Thank you! And this video is performing worse than almost any so far. I just don’t know what we do wrong! By the way the announcement was in the video linked at the end of this one! It’s a new channel we’ve launched to cover the creation and restoration of the gardens!

I like the quick paced style of the video. The message is spot on 👍

Love it when a plan starts to come together ...👍🙂

Fascinating that you are going to be self sufficient. Don't know how you manage to get so much done with 2 young children.

Congrats on your far-sighted ecological ideas! Wish more people were like you two.

So amazing to find out more about your plans for an eco-efficient chateau … I watch many ‘chateau’ channels but your content is so different and it’s fascinating to see how you ensure the chateau is able to be maintained and thrive. I love the slick production values too, with you both on camera 🥰

I think you are both very brave to take on a big project like this. Good luck and keep healthy

Someone mentioned that you put your journey and self sustainability into a book. I love that idea. Especially if it has the history and pictures included.

Wow guys! I have been quietly watching since you started the channel and I am so, so proud of you!!! This must really feel like you are getting somewhere with everything now. What a lot of security you must feel from your self sustainability plan. Really well done!

Very interesting vlog. The heating system is a marvel. Great vlog.

So amazing. So excited to following all your goals. I had no idea how massive your projects are

Wow, guys. This is a great video! The pacing and format really showed off your information well and allowed your personalities to shine. Good mix of scripting and off the cuff.

Fascinating insight - great to hear how you have and are planning for self sustainability at the chateau. Thank you for sharing from Australia.

This is such a fascinating approach and I love especially Marc’s passion for studying all the history of sustainability applying all the things he learns! Great vlog!❤

Juliette is such a scene stealer

You 2 are so cute and work so well together. Kudos to your ecological plan for the chateau and property. You aren’t just thinking about your property now…you’re investing in its future, especially for your children. 🥰 What a big undertaking! I will definitely subscribe to your new channel! 🍷😉🙏

Thank you for this information on your self sustainability.....very impressive!! I really enjoy your channel as it is so positive and uplifting!!

Impressive accomplishments already! We love to see your progress & we will keep watching ❤

Your grand plans are fascinating and impressive; so many interlinking pieces to both honor the history of the estate and reinterpret it for future sustainability. You certainly have the knowledge and drive to succeed and I look forward to following your progress.

What a brilliant idea, to have a seperate channel for other projects! Im really impressed with your resourcefulness and fortitude! Hopefully you get more subscribers when they learn of all your great alternative ideas for becoming self-sufficient! Good for you! As a 70 yr old great grandma from the USA, I find it appalling how wasteful weve become here. I'm like the only one in a huge family who recycles everything, and have for yrs. And try to live without plastic, almost impossible but im making headway! Very happy for this most informative video,,brilliant ❤😊 Esp love the wood-chipping furnace, wow. Never heard of that before.

I'm a bit younger than you and also from a large family - and I'm the only one that reuses, recycles, and buys carefully. What will happen when we are gone? I hope there is a reincarnation of the sustainable lifestyle we looked toward in the 1960s and 1970s. Remember The Whole Earth Catalog? I remember making water-heated solar panels in high school...

What a nice introduction to you management philosophy and the practicalities of the estate

What a charming, adorable, and funny video! I thoroughly enjoyed it! One of my favorite parts was when Amy was sitting on the tank talking to Marc in the tank. Amy you looked so cute! Many more Fab moments too.

That was brilliant, I’d love a chateau , but the thoughts of having to do weddings and the like fills me with horror. To have a chateau and be self sufficient is my dream ❤❤love you guys and your beautiful babies xx

So awesome I love your approach and very interesting! The stone walls are stunning! I’m very excited to come along!😊

Great video! What an interesting project. An amazing feat.

Really enjoyed the way you laid out your goals and how you’re planning to get there. Excellent video.

Look into mount Vernon in Virginia. The home of George Washington our first president he ran a plantation on all sustainability for his family and 317 slaves(😢) and hundreds of visitors a year. Genius of a man.

You are doing an amazing amount of work on your estate. Well done both of you and the very best of luck.

This has been one of the best vlogs, so informative. I love your whole echo's, the history of self sustainability is so impressive and fascinating, it is a passion of mine, but I do it in a much smaller scale. You have worked so hard and we can now see everything coming together. I would love to visit you one day, and get my hands dirty, do you have a volunteers program? Following your journey, watching your family grow, is a highlight, can't wait to watch your new channel. love from Australia.

So interesting,and an enjoyable video

Your heating system is awesome !

You are both amazing.

Good afternoon from the SF Bay Area. Loved this video, you two were really focussed, informative, and charming. What a project. I'm looking forward to more tile videos, too. I have not seen the wonderful door and window grates you were sitting in front of, and the last shot of you going up the path was new to me, too. Very fine, Marc & Amy, keep it up, be well. Love to all.

Enjoyed your video wishing you the best.

Well done! Found this very interesting!

What a wonderful journey and family!

What a great video!! Thank you for sharing the plan.

You have fantastic & interesting plans! I love hearing about it!

Whaou !! love it all and looking forward to seeing more. Thank you for sharing your vision.

Super projet vous deux :) Félicitation. un bel avenir pour vos enfants et vous.

2 smart people who I really admire, reading about the past isn't a thing people want to do, but even when life changed, the way to go is be self sustainable, especially on such a large estate. But most people do not have castle, chateau or mansion And you having water is like I already said once: its like having gold. Can't wait to hop by some day in the future on our way to the Ardeche.

Again, very interesting, clever solutions🥇🧠🧠🧠. You are always smiling but it is also a lot of work for you🧑‍🔧🧑‍🔧🧑‍🔧. Toujours des commentaires intelligents, des perspectives hyper réfléchies🌲🌲🌲 et indispensables👋👋 pour l'avenir de vos enfants. On doit tous trouver nos solutions 💯💯💯

I like your intro!

So much respect for you both, I know you will succeed.

My husband and I watch you faithfully. He wishes he could come help Marc because they seem to think alike & would probably work very well together! You have obviously put a lot of thought into the planning of your systems, and it’s quite fascinating to get glimpses into what you’ve done so far. I find your videos so much more realistic than many others out there, and you deserve great success. I love seeing Clemente and Juliette as they are growing. Clemente was such a little guy when we began watching. Is he more like his dad, or you? And Juliette has teeth and a beautiful smile! She’s so adorable! Keep on producing videos as you are able, and don’t rob yourself of joy by comparing yours to others.

There is a resort in Italy that has become 100% self sufficient like you. I am so excited for you, this is fascinating. I know you will accomplish this self sufficiently.

Watching you both has made me smile. Apart from your dedication and enthusiasm for a sustainable life. It is wonderful to see such love and laughter. You truly are a joy to watch. I wish you continued happiness and success in everything you do. Happy Saturday from Canada. 😊

I love your channel. I too am baffled as to why you don’t have more subscribers. You are both such fun, knowledgeable & enthusiastic people. Your children are adorable additions to the fun of watching your videos. Your plans and efforts are great to listen to & to watch. And the quality of your videos is excellent. I hope that you continue to produce these videos, though I understand that they add to your workload. I really want to be able to continue to watch your plans come to fruition and to watch your beautiful children grow up. Good luck from the Toronto area of Canada 🍀🤞🇨🇦

Well done Amy and Mark. This was so interesting to hear. You’re both very intelligent and are using your brains well in finding ways to run your estate well. 11:18

Love what you are doing

Well done!

I would say your best ever video. The ethos of natural management and using the estate to help itself is refreshing. Seeing so many chateaus try to run as hotels, B&B's and event venues is fine, however your holistic view is fantastic and should be commended. I look forward to watching you go forward with these ideals and believe you are building something very special for your children.

I would love to have this book. Translated into English!

Simply awesome - a great direction for any rural estate, whether it is a chateau or not, to move forward. Initially a huge undertaking but the research you are doing is really great supportive information to make the tasks go smoothly. Other cultures have many self sufficient ideas that can be undertaken as an addition to your intention to be environmentally-sustainable. Bravo for taking this on.

Love this!!

This is an amazing presentation to quickly encapsulate what you are both working toward! Your new-past inspired approach is undoubtedly the way forward to keep your estate alive and thriving and I would say that even on much more humble scales, it will certainly inspire people to think about what is available to them. From North Yorkshire to l’Ardèche, sending you plenty of encouragement !

Well done,history teaches everything

yes oh yes. fantastic. thanks for sharing your comprehensive vision of self sufficiency

Looking forward to this

Fascinating historical episode... yet it also just makes so much 'modern' sense to simply use the resources that are already available to you! Your Chateau Estate is truly blessed with so many of these. Can't wait to see how you harvest these in an environmentally responsible way. I can tell you from my own experience (even in the suburbs of a big city) that my previously unused roof area is now providing for free (after PV installation costs, of course) nearly 2X the total annual energy used by my household of four energy hungry people. ie: I get credit from the power company! Soon, an EV will soak up some of that extra capacity as I will further reduce costs by eliminating my weekly petrol bills too! On a property like yours.... the sky is the limit.

Excellent❤

Beautiful presentation, you are both doing amazing job, very exciting plans for the future. All the best ❤️

Enjoyed. Facinating.

Gosh! I can see you have been so busy don’t know how you do it with two little children. You must have good work ethic. I have been minding my granddaughter and she has just started childcare, poor baby has become a germ factory so we have all been getting the bugs as well. All the best they do grow up and we can only do our best❤

You are both so awesome! I think I tell you this every time, but I love your intelligence, and love following you and your goals and achievements. xx

Wonderful video you guys!❤

Four videos I have watched about your estate today, great day! Love what you are doing and the plans for future living. 🇨🇦❤️❤️

Bravo!!!! I am impressed and support where you are going. Good on you!

I love you two, totally not show biz, so very much practical chateau renovation. Good luck, I will be watching. In the nicest possible way of course.

BY FAR the most insightful video I have EVER seen on any chateau channel. Now I want to do it too!

Loved today's video!

It's a wonderful feeling to be self-sufficient. Great job! That alone will make good topics for your vlog.

That was a very interesting overview thank you 😊💜

Your terrace restoration is phenomenal! The garden looks amazing, compared to old videos that showed initial efforts. It was great to see the water storage tank restored, too. I love your vision; I tried to live sustainably in the 70s. It was very "The Good Life." 😂 But, it worked well and I was almost self-sufficient with fruits and veg, and grew enough to sell to cover other costs. I envy you both your youth and your impressive project. Your children are so, so fortunate to have you and the natural setting you've obtained for them. ❤

I've no idea why your youtube channel isn't growing faster. You are such a charming interesting family! 😊

You are both so knowledgeable about so many things! It’s so fun to follow your journey and learn from you. So admirable!

This is a great video - excellent filming and very inspiring

Brilliant planning and execution! I know this has been five years in coming but how great is it to actually come into fruition! Well done, Amy and Mark. Building a better mouse trap with ancient techniques! BRAVO! Cheers!

Oh my goodness! Little Green and that wallpaper is absolutely beyond words! You must have that garden. It’s stunning (to use a very overworked word). What a treat to have a Little Green rep. I was around for Elizabeth’s coronation and we watched at school. I was in grade 2. Now for Charles I’m not nearly as impressed, was disappointed with the menu and infuriated that Camilla is to be called Queen and not Queen Consort as was stated it was to be by Her Majesty. I’m hoping William will soon be King and save what will remain of the monarchy after Charles. I love the monarchy and believe it is a part of Britain that brings people from around the world to see something that’s been an integral part of this nation since 1066. When William becomes King the uninterrupted line will continue due to his mother’s royal ancestors. So the German Saxe-Coburg-Gotha will fade well into the past.

I love how thoughtful you both are about how you live within your land. What is the carving on the doorway's stone entry? There are so many treasures in the architecture yet to be revealed. Love the new focus. Congratulations on the new channel. And as an aside, I unsubscribed to a certain channel when I learned what they had done to some of their employees. I much prefer you and the others I subscribe to as each is much nicer and more honest in their behaviors.

I tried watching another way - no link popped up and I wasn’t sent to another video. 😢 Maybe (hopefully) you meant the live Q&A on this channel. Heading there now. 🤞👍🍀
