What a lovely video and thank you for sharing your experience. Full of useful tips! Hopefully my turn soon.

Just found your channel! Looking forward to hearing more and gathering useful tips for my move next year!

🙏✝️🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🍁🍁🍁your vlog is very encouraging and explanatory. I am similar, can't stand itchy wool against my skin so must put something soft next to skin first. There are patterns, called Dutchess, I have seen in pattern books, like McCalls and Vogue, at stores, like Hobby Lobby

It is wonderful that you have started sewing and the curtains have a nice pattern.

8:10 I like it very much, it looks very feminine and the marial of the dress also looks nice to wear,

My sister’s coming for dinner. My home is a hot mess. What am I doing… watching you make curtains. Thank -you for the this great video. I’ve been so afraid of making curtains like yours. You made it look so doable. and they turned out beautiful. Now I feel like I can go buy fabric. Can’t wait to see what you’re going to do next. Love from a new subscriber 🩷

Gold paint on inner edges of doors - delicious...

Wow. Industrious. And we get to watch. Accompanied by wonderful, delicious music. Thank you, so much, Annabelle. I've enjoyed this showing, immensely. ❤❤❤..e

I HAVE VISITED CLOVELLY SEVERAL TIMES IN 40 YEARS, BUT IT NEVER CHANGES. BEST TO CHOOSE A GOOD SUMMER DAY. YOU REALLY NEED GOOD COMFORTABLE SHOES /BOOTS, EVEN GOING DOWN THE SLOPE., THE COBBLES CAN BE SLIPPERY AND TIRING IF YOU ARE NOT FIT. A LANDROVER SERVICE CAN RETURN YOU TO THE TOP/ CAR PARK. VIA A HIDDEN LANE. FOR A SMALL FEE.

great stuff

i hear u

love the vids ,just found them,great stuff guys

I love your lovely kitchen.

Yum! I love homemade custard ❤ it’s fun to make a delicious to eat xx

Looks delicious! Thanks for posting, it gives me ideas:)

I've been watching this vlog seriously ❤. Obviously, you and Mark, like greenery, gardens, orchards, 🪴 🌱 🌿 🌾 🌵 plantings. Imagine the patience it takes to WAIT. Bonsai culture. Mark is going to try his hands, at it, I see. Can't WAIT for your next vlog. ❤❤❤...e

Lovely flower gathering. I wanted you to know the Ashlar stone lookalike in the stair hall, was once very popular in the 1860's. People who had large masculine homes, did their halls and stairs cases and towers in this style. It pronounced "baronial", castle 🏰 medieval. Then they had very puffy drapes in red or lavender velvet. The people with really deep pockets even pit the cut stone look on outside walls , at the entrance. Heraldry 🛡 shields, crossed swords, etc. This style was copied in the United States. There are a lot of antique houses from the 1860's in the N,S,E,W, with this effect. Many of these houses are Museums. Mark and Annabell, how lucky you are to have this in your home. Wow. Congratulations, for taking the risk, of taking off the peach paper ❤❤❤

It's nice to see you again.

The walls do look like a castle

The shelves with the copper pans look great

They are beautiful

Gosh, where have you been? Missed you and Mark, very much. Thought, awe, oh, they've quit vlogging. So glad, you are back❤.

Lovely video, what camera equipment was used? Stabilzing of the video was good, mine jump all over the place, any tips would be appreciated👍 Kev

Nagyon tetszett köszönöm!!! Csaba Magyarországról 🙂

But Paris is still 50% less than LA. It's all perspective really.

Hello! Lovely to see you both! Pity you did not post some photos of the houses where you lived. They all seem to be very nice. The last one you mentioned (at about 18.25) the big 4-bedroom house in Normandy for 895 euros a month sounds like a terrific bargain. If only I could win the damned lottery!!! 😡😡😡(LOL) Regards. Claudio

Where is the place you live now?

Well thank you both. I was hoping to hear about the heat and you definitely came through. I'm retired and have been in the Seattle, Washington area for thirty-three years, but originally from Venice/Santa Monica, California and have been looking for a warmer climate, near the water and beautiful beaches, and was considering the South of France or Italy. I'm just not sure I could survive in that kind of heat, particularly without A/C or a pool. Thanks again and Mark's mustache looks just like that instrument leaning against the wall near the mirror.

we are planning to leave USA and are hoping to find a house in the south. What areas do you recommend that are more affordable but not in a big city? We thought the Var would be more affordable?

Hello Mark! Hello Annabella! Such a long time (nearly a month)! First of all, I did not catch the name of the town where you lived while in the South, could you tell me? Thanks! I was surprised by the extremely high temperatures you had over there; it did sound more like Sicily in the summer! Regards, Claudio 😍 PS: Mark looks like a WW1 Tommy!😁😁😁

Je suis heureux que j'ai trouvé ce canal.

Charming couple, enjoy La Douce France.

EVEN IF YOU HUMAN SLAVES FILL THIS ENTIRE PRISON WORLD WITH FICTION ( MONEY ) OR ( DIAMOND GOLD SILVER ) THAT STILL CAN'T MAKE BIRDS REPRODUCE WHY DO YOU HUMAN SLAVES BELIEVE THAT YOU NEED TO EARN & PAY FICTION ( MONEY ) TO BE ALIVE ? WHY DO YOU HUMAN SLAVES BELIEVE THAT ARCHONS RULING YOU CAN CREATE FICTION ( MONEY ) ? WHY DO YOU HUMAN SLAVES BELIEVE THAT FICTION ( MONEY ) IS REAL AND HAS VALUE ? WHY DO YOU HUMAN SLAVES BELIEVE THAT ( DIAMOND GOLD SILVER ) HAVE MORE VALUE THAN AIR & BIRDS ? * ARCHONS RULING YOU HUMAN SLAVES CREATED FICTION ( MONEY ) TO MAKE YOU DO THE EVILS WHICH OTHERWISE YOU WOULD NEVER DO *

Interesting bldg Did notice the earthen steps, base and 1st monument to a really famous individual. 2nd defenses added when Roman's left and wars among small countries eternal fighting. Then it's total refit under Wm the Bastard, later The Conqueror. Then it's demise, the Parliamental army laying waste.

this is my first encounter with your channel and i loved the content. I have also subscribed and looking forward to watch more videos. The only thing that i found a bit disturbing was the weird chinese or indian meditative music background which are not at all in sync with the exquisite 18th century french beauty of such a chateau and gardens. I would have chosen a stunning classical music or even a soothing meditative one but definitely not chinese :).

Very interesting sights seeing. You are accomplishing much, in your finding more positive material for us to watch and enjoy. Thank you Annabelle and Mark. Apple cider is delicious but pear cider is even more scrumptious. Apple cider is called Cider, whereas Pear cider is called Perie. The fiddle music adds more flavor to your vlog. Best wishes to your summer travels...e 😊😊😊😊❤

Looks sooo fun, wow

I want to go there looks great

The ground covering plant looks like Delosperma cooperi

Where in France you based? Looks lovely 😊

Mesambreanthamum& purple

Your putplei succulent flower is a mesambrethum(sp). Crush egg shells to tetard snails 👍

Actually, your veg. garden looks great. This is not that easy. Thanks for the video.

Love the pop of color inside your dining room cupboard !

My peonies have no buds this year which is disappointing but my sea holly is flowering this year but it didn't last year. My rhododendron has just finished flowering. My foxgloves and poppies look great. Looked a nice drop of compost.

Your rhododendron is gorgeous. I haven't seen one that big, since when. They are native to China, as are Mimosa, a beautiful tree puts out pink flowers.

Nice to see you and Mark, out and about in public, in a nice town called Laval. Many years ago, our Priest was called Fr. Donald Lavelle

That looks like a really old and interesting place, I love the buildings

Hello there! Nice to see the whole family up and about! 🤩Did I suffer watching you eating those delicious cakes or what? 😋Today is my birthday and in a couple of hours, my wife and I will enjoy a delicious cake (a vanilla sponge with Chantilly cream and strawberries) and lots of coffee 😋😁😋It seems it rained during your visit, sorry about that. Mark looks SO English with his flat cap! I think that the flat cap is to English what the beret is to the French. How sweet was your little son waving from the back seat of the car! Cheers! 😍

I was going to write "You deserve a big cup of tea (or coffee) and a slice of cake" but you beat me with the cookies. They look gorgeous and I am sure they taste wonderful! 😋😋 You and Mark deserve a nice weekend and plenty of rest. Cheers! 😍😍
