This is not the end of our channel. Please continue to stick with us, as work will carry on at the chateau until the very very end (probably months away!)! There may even be a new project in the UK on the horizon!
I wish you all the best in your transition. I don't think it will take long to sell, the work you have done is true art. You are extremely talented all of you. I look forward to seeing where your future takes you and thank you for being willing to take us with you into the future. Sending lots of love.
Phew , would miss your videos!
Carol, my heart goes out to you. I am so sorry. I have enjoyed watching your and Adrian's hard work. I will follow along, not to worry. What's the saying? When one door closes, ............
Most definitely😉
PG Tips I certainly will continue to follow u both in whatever u end up doing !!! You can’t keep me away so there 👏👏👏👏👍🙏🏻🙏🏻😂😂
You’ll be greatly missed. No one does chateaux renovations to the level you do, that I’ve seen.
Agreed 100%!!!❤
Big hugs, one day at a time. ❤
Thank you 😊
Dear Carole & Adrian, I am stunned hearing the news, I’m sure you’ve explored every avenue for not selling & keeping the Chateau, it’s apart of you both & us viewers. My TH-cam won’t be the same without you, I do hope we see you in some way in the future! Bless you both, John in Monmouth xx
Don’t worry we’re not l saving the channel!
You’ve been a class act in the chateauverse and one others should aspire to emulate. I’ve been very impressed with the extraordinary grueling work you’ve meticulously completed and the enormous respect you show one another. You’ve not expected subscribers to fund your lifestyle and the renovations. Beth, your editing is spot on and I love your support for your parents. Adrian and Carole - everything happens for a reason. Feel proud for what you’ve accomplished and the work you’ll continue in the interim pre-sale. Family is more important than anything and your priorities are in the right place. ✌🏼
Thank you 😊
I can’t imagine that the chateau would be sold. Too much work has already occurred. Carole and Adrian are so talented it would be a shame to see incomplete work.
I completely agree ive watched since day one i want to see it finished im already vested in this journey
😢 noooo
😢😢😢 I think it hurts you too both of you put your heart and soul into the chateau but being cl9se to family is important too material stuff can be replaced but not family ❤❤❤
Sad to watch that you may sell the chateau after all the hard and incredibly meticulous work you have both put into. It has obviously been a heartbreaking decision to make but understandable. Cheers to 🥂all the work you have put into this project and look forward to seeing your future projects.
Thanks to Bethany for all her fantastic editing and will continue watching.
This is soooo sad. My husband and I have worked on many homes throughout the years and know the amount of money, time and effort involved in renovations. I hope you find peace in where you land and know that you are loved and respected by this community. Hope we see you again on some future project or if not, that your lives rebound in the best possible way. ❤
Thank you Penny😊
Your journey has been remarkable with the chateau and as sad as it may seem, I will always appreciate the wonderful improvements you've accomplished. The salon project is the best chateau DIY project I've ever seen and for you to be able to share that experience and give this structure a second chance, is commendable.
Aw. Family comes first, no matter what.
But seeing Carol cry really broke my heart.
It will be a huge change from living in the chateau to live in the house in the UK.
I hope the Chateau will be sold to some one who continues the hard work and will share the love you obviously have for it
Well, I was cetainly not expecting to read the words posted in your episode description. I shall watch along with the rest of your subscribers when the video goes live. No matter what happened just know we love you and wish for the best.
Regardless if you’re in France or Britain you’re still on my must see subscription list! I certainly understand family demands. As a great grandmother I am aware of how fast the children grow and those moments can’t be recaptured. Much love to you all
Congratulations on the new granddaughter. Hope you’ll continue to share your adventures if/when you sell up. I’m sure the little terraced house will look wonderful once you work your magic on it.
First and foremost, thank you for taking us along on your grand adventure. The planning, hard work and heart you both have put into this project has been inspiring to watch. Have to admit, you are not the only one with teary eyes Carole. Absolutely sure many of your “TH-cam” family are sharing the mixed emotions you must be experiencing. Beth, you have done a masterful job of editing and production. Very professional and a joy to watch. Wishing you and yours all the best now and in the future.
So very sad, indeed! But whatever your next endeavor, I'm sure you will put the same love and care.
Thank you so much!
Of course everyone will be sad as we love what you have done and hoped to see it through to completion. But it's your lives.
Find a manor home in the UK quickly!!!!!
@@dianayanda1411 UK property prices are what drive people to look for french chateaux in the first place. There slim to zero chance of getting a habitable house of reasonable size in the UK at a reasonable price
You have done such a brilliant job with the chateau. I would love to see you finish it. Especially the kitchen
Loved watching all you've both done to the chateau. So sad that you're leaving.
I could never get over how hard you work. Replacing joists , floors , wiring and all of the intricate gold leaf work.The finished rooms are gorgeous and the gardens are looking great.
Whoever buys it is getting a fantastic deal. Best of luck in the future. 🥰
Thank you so much!
Sucker punched... devistated...can't believe it. Carol, that chateau meant so much to you. We all saw the dedication and artistry with which you lovingly were restoring it. The sudden announcement of listing the chateau was so stunning. Of course, I wish you the very best in whatever the future holds for you and Adrian. ❤
Thank you 😊
😢I truly feel awfully sad for Carole! Well, you both😊 very surprised to hear your news! ❤ really enjoyed watching you both create your visions in the château!
My heart is broken. I was so excited to see what was going to happen next. I want you both to be happy good luck in what ever happens. Hope it doesn’t sell for awhile ❤️❤️❤️
Endings are never easy, but new beginnings are really exciting too! With all the amazing support surrounding you, I’m sure you will go from strength to strength when the next chapter arises. Exciting times! 😍
I hope so too!
I've never posted on here before despite watching your progress on the chateau for many months . I think everyone can sympathise with your predicament , the time spent travelling , family issues and now a new baby on the way must all take precedence . You have both made a fabulous job of the house so far and have kept us all enthralled with your expert hard work and antics . I'm sure i echo the thoughts of so many when i say i wish you all the very best of luck .
Thank you 😊
I am gutted for you! Not what I was expecting to hear today from your wonderful channel. I wish you all the best! ❤
Ohhh, this is making me incredibly sad
You both contributed your skill and talents to preserving this chateau znd it is beautiful. It’s huge but not so huge that it’s impossible for modern day people. You are both so talented. I hope you can find a property to renovate that is close enough to your business and family because you have a love and passion for beautiful old architecture, and you are so talented. I know you already renovated an English cottage, and found it to be somewhat dark inside, and I know the prices are high, but maybe you can find something that isn’t dark and cramped but also not too expensive.
That’s the plan 😊
OMG!
I've grown so attached to you both; yes you too Beth.
Whatever happens I do hope that you will bring us all along with you.
The Chateau is one thing; but the best part has been the both of you.
I don't care what size place that you're working on.
Someday it might be a bigger property in UK; and don't want to lose you.
Plus it is helping Beth with school; so we've got to come with you!
Much prayers and all my thoughts are with your family.
Just love you guy's! ❤
We will!
I hope everything is well in your lives. You are an adorable family. The important thing is that you all are doing well. I appreciate all the beautiful things you shared in your videos. Sending you all my love. Hugs.
Exactly, wonderful folks!
Thank you so much!
If it were this time next year I would make you an offer on the spot. I’ve watched literally every video and feel like I know the Chateau better than I would after a regular estate agent viewing! I have always thought your Chateau perfect, it’s exactly what my husband and I are hoping to find and I’ve secretly always wished you would sell, so we could buy it, but never imagined you would. In fact we’ve been “window shopping” for a few years (my parents live outside Toulouse) and never seen anything as perfect. Sadly, we aren’t quite ready to make the move because our kids need to finish high school first. I can’t imagine it won’t sell quickly but if it’s still on the market in 12 months, I will be reaching out! Adrian we would totally let you come back and continue your work! Carole you could come back and sunbathe anytime! Congratulations on the new grand baby.
Thank you 😊
If it’s any consolation, I spent 12.5 years restoring an historic mansion in downtown Detroit Michigan by myself (I was 40 when I bought it). I was also working a full time corporate job. When I finished it, I realized my passion was the restoration process. Like yours, it was a show place. A wonderful young family bought it. It was part of my journey but not my destination👍. Sundays and Wednesdays will never be the same but I have so enjoyed what you and your family brought to your channel ❤
We’re not finishing TH-cam yet!
I’m a loyal follower. I’m not going anywhere.
Gorgeous news for all of you.
Selfishly heartbreaking news for all of us who have loved your adventure.
I think the old boy should buy Carol a stately home that needs some love in the UK 😮
I have so enjoyed this channel! Its sad to have this come to an end, but at the end of the day, you all have to do whats right for your family! Ill watch until the end! Best of luck!
I wish you both the best and I'm sure whatever you do in the future you will do well. I have really enjoyed the channel. Congrats on the new grandchild. 🥰🇨🇦
Thank you so much!
I just want to say from the bottom of my heart what a pleasure and inspiration it has been to watch your journey. I live in a similar size and age property in a remote part of Wales. Living in and renovating a large old building is very overwhelming! For us it took 6 years before we really started to reap the rewards and of course the maintenance never stops. What you have both achieved is simply extraordinary especially in such a short space of time. Is there anyway you could get (known and trusted) volunteers to live and work at the chateaux while you sort things out with your company in England? Just an idea. Whatever you decide I have no doubt you will make a complete success of it. Also don't ever forget that thanks entirely to your skill, determination and love the very beautiful Chateau 'de le Ferte now has a future.
Yes. Hoping it goes into similar hands!
I was so hoping to see the Christmas tree in the beautiful salon this year! Good luck with your future endeavors. I’ll miss seeing this beautiful chateau.
Never say never 😊
Sorry to hear this guys. It is a tough time for many, especially in the UK. I appreciate that it must have been a really hard decision and that your are both entrepreneurs & therefore know when a change direction is needed for family & business needs. All the best to each & everyone of you. x
Thank you 😊
I couldn't believe it when I saw the listing. I live vicariously through you two and hope and dream that in the near future I can buy one for myself. Much ❤ to you both.
I like how you focused on the great news of your new grand baby. Not the video I expected, but I will be watching till the final curtain and more exciting, your next chapter. Thank you so much for giving all of us a glimpse into your world. I also think the stairwell wall in the terrace house would look great with the Morris print paper. And you can clearly make a proper French staircase to get rid of the 70s vibe. I was picturing a lot of changes for the England home. It may be small, but you can posh that up.
Watch this space!!
Congratulations on the grand baby!! I’m so awfully sorry that you have had to make this kind of decision!! Couldn’t of been easy really, You guys have been incredible.
Our not giving up on the chateau your doing brilliant work with it please don't give up 😢
I'll definitely keep watching. Even if the chateau sells, I hope you'll keep making videos. I would be very interested to see how you renovate the house in England. I bet Val and Alph would love to help transform the garden, too. You have such a lovely family and understand that they come first. Beth - keep up with the channel because you're very good at it. 🥰
More videos to follow!
Well, Carole held it together better than me - I’m sat here with tears rolling down my cheeks.
My husband and I will keep watching your channel wherever you are. ❤️ We love England and look forward to your future projects.
Awesome! Thank you!
Well what a shock!! I will miss you so much but totally understand. You guys have to do what is best for yourselves. Best of luck!!!
Respect and support for you in this difficult decision. Will sure miss your videos, hope the future has a place for more😊♥️🇿🇦
I love visiting you guys twice a week and watching you make the chateau beautiful again. I’m so sorry to hear this but completely understand. Congratulations on the new granddaughter on the way!!! Family comes first in my book.❤
Thank you 😊
So sorry to hear this! I know you would have finished the chateau beautifully! Will continue to watch as long as you are on. Such a neat couple.
WHAT!!!!!! nooooooooooooooooooooo All that hard work you guys put into. --I will wait and hear
I lost my mom in 2020, and you guys remind me of my mom and dad. The way you interact with each other, and do your projects is exactly the way my parents worked and were with each other. Thank you for bringing me a little piece of that back! I look forward to seeing what you do next. I will miss your videos if/when you sell.
Sorry to hear that but we will continue to vlog
I am so sorry to hear this news. Carole you have given the Chateau your all. But life happens & you must do what is most important and necessary for you & your family. I will miss your vlogs & wish you a the best for a happy future.
We will still be doing vlogs!
You guys are great! So good to see you put your family first! Good work will come back to you. I can’t wait to see your changes on your UK home. More adventures coming your way. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much!
It is tough to live two lives. I’ve enjoyed your videos and seeing all of your work. All the best from Calgary, 🇨🇦
Thanks so much!
So sad to think your going after all your hard work, but family is much more important xx
So true!
Wow! Big excitement for you and your family!! It will be fun for us to see what Carole will do to the little house in the UK. I will stick around for that!🤗❤
Congratulations on your new grand baby! I’ve admired how you all have been so open about your lives. Not many folks are able to do that and you remind us all that life is a roller coaster and we must soldier on. Very inspirational! You will still be one of my favorite channels ❤
Thank you Laura 😊
You are wonderful, talented people. I have really enjoyed watching all your work and beautiful renovations
Dear family, although I am sad that the chateau will be sold I will say that I totally understand your reasonings why. I admire the fact that family remains your main goal. I will admit that I have become quite attached to your life at the chateau. I’ve come to admire greatly your talents and abilities, and especially your colourful characters. Who ever ends up being the new proprietor of this amazing property has the pleasure of watching the restoration being done . I sincerely wish you both all the very best that two amazing people deserve. Congratulations on the new granddaughter 🥰. Blessings to all the family, I will miss you all.
Thank you and perhaps we will still be here!
Thank you for letting us into your life plans. So sad and so understandable. I hope all goes the way you wish. Will still love watching you.
Aww, I'm so sad. I had really hoped we would get to see the finished chateau, are at least more of the completed rooms. You have done a spectacular job. Best of luck with your next endeavor.
Thank you 😊
Sorry things didn’t work out,really enjoyed watching you working on the chateau.
Aww. Sorry to see you guys end a wonderful channel. The chateau work has been so much fun but I’m sure you realized how much of your family life you are missing. Thank you so much for the years of great vids and my looking forward always to Wednesday and Sunday.
😢 one of my favorite channels… we live through your work and the idea of you not completing it and enjoying it is sad
Whatever your future holds, I wish you all the very best of luck. Thank you for sharing this phase of your lives with all of us who love dropping in to see what's new every week.
I can't imagine how difficult the decision to sell has been. You've both put your heart and soul into the Chateau, and I'm sure you must have mixed emotions. You have to do what's right for you and your family. Thank you for sharing your story, and I hope everything works out for you all
Thank you so much!
I’m so sad to hear this but totally understand your reasoning behind such a difficult decision. You should be very proud of what you have both achieved at the chateau, such an amazing accomplishment! I wish you all the best with the relocation and would love to see the new place in the UK once it’s decorated 😊
Sadness! but I will keep on watching. Good luck with the new beginnings!
So sad, but everything will be better. I would waiting your videos in every three days, I will be your fan again, I learn so much from you. Good good luck!
Sve ste savršeno uredili kad je ekipa uigrana i kad imate znanje veliki pozdrav iz Srbije!
Life happens! You have other responsibilities besides the chateau. You did incredible work on the chateau! I had to make a decision on a big family home 20 years ago! I found out other folks could love the home as much as me. Same with you lovely chateau! Love my home in the country! You guys are so talented and will find another project! With a new granddaughter on the way! Tons of stuff there to do! Be able to visit your Mom and Alf. Adrian will be closer to work. You have a major redecorating and refurbish in England! Wishing you the best in all your future endeavors! Excited to see your next chapter! Thank you, for taking all of us along on your journey!
Our pleasure 😊
Thank you for the update. I'm sorry to see your Chateau Renovation journey coming to an end. Family means more. I will be very interested to see the UK home renovations.
Adrian you are so right, family must always come first. Well done and congratulations. 😊
Very sad news but I wish the best for you and your family!
Thank you for your wonderful shows.
I wish you all the very best for your endeavors...
Sad to hear this news. The work you have put in is amazing. You have done such incredible work inside . Enjoy watching. Thank you
Thanks for being transparent. It’s hard having a public story. Good on you for doing what you need to do!
I appreciate that
I wish you the very best. I hope everything works out as you want it to and for the best. I’ve enjoyed watching your fabulous renovations.
Thank you so much!
Hello Carole and Adrian, Beth . Wishing you all the best for life back in England with your family. I will miss you on TH-cam. xx ❤❤❤
Oh no! I’m so sorry! I look forward to seeing what you can finish and I can’t wait to see what you can do with your little house. Hugs!
Only if we sell
I so enjoy watching the beautiful work you have done and I am proud to say that subscribed soon after I found you - please, pleas, continue to show how you redo your small place in London too!
Hoping to start another project when we’re back in uk
I'm sorry I can't even give this a thumbs up, like I normally do on your videos. It's a sad announcement. But I understand. You put so much into the restoration. It's a credit to you what you have done. Family is important and comes first.
I appreciate that
I have been away on holiday, excited to return and binge watch Carole and Adrian, only to see this now. I am so sorry for the stress you have obviously been under for quite a long time. You have done a remarkable job of hiding it from the cameras. Family is always first. I live ten minutes from my grandson and I would not trade it for the world. I am not sure how you ended up on my you tube feed. I do not watch any other chateau channels, but it was such a blessing the day it did. You had just under 6 thousand followers and I could not for the life of me understand how you had so few followers. Eventually I did a bit of research and learned I should hit the like button and comment. I do hope you realize the genuine affection and admiration people have for you and your family. When someone comes twice weekly into your life, they become a part of it. I wish you all the best of everything. I will continue to watch as long as you post. I do want Bethany to get to 100 thousand subscribers. Thank you so much for everything. Carole, you are not alone in the crying. Xo
Thank you Brenda and we are so blessed to have such a great TH-cam family 😊
I’ve loved watching you work on the chateau. I can imagine how hard the decision has been for you. Best wishes for the future whatever you end up deciding.
Wishing you the best of everything. I have loved watching as you have done beautiful renovations to the chateau and the gardens. ❤️🌹❤️
Thank you so much!
Your channel has been my go to every Wednesday and Sunday. You are such hard working creative people ❤. Best wishes
Thank you so much 😀
What a difficult decision for all of you. I wish you the very best and am confident that your next chapter will be just as adventurous and fun as the chateau.
Bittersweet news! Lovely to return to England for family needs but sad to say goodbye to the chateau because of all the love you both have poured into it! Moving forward, rejoicing! Cheers!
Sad news, but exciting news too. Congratulations. Hopefully, you will find time to keep us posted on your journey. It would be fun to go along with you on your next property search. Best of luck. Sending positive energy.
Thank you 😊
You are such wonderful people. Followed you for so long you feel like family. ❤ I hope you will keep the chateau for a while yet. Will keep following you if you continue your youtube channel.
We will!
It's been an absolute pleasure to watch your chateau restoration videos and I look forward to watching any future endeavours you partake in. You're all so lovely and i wish you the best of luck with new projects ❤.
Many thanks!
Your videos have been enjoyable, informative and fun 👍
Life happens..totally get you in the hard decisions you have to make.
Will continue to watch to see how your days are going on ..
You’ve done a brilliant job. All the best for whatever is ahead.
an unfortunate situation for sure. You have done wonderful work and brought life to this old Chateau.
Thank you Laurent and for your support
This is so sad. I love your journey. I am hoping it works out well for all involved. My aunt lives in the South of France and misses the UK but cannot imagine living anywhere other than France. She has all her children and grandchildren near by though.
I wish you all the best , I will miss your chateau too ! But ! I can see you remolding your new home . Everything will work out for the best .
Life is so fluid so glad you can make the switch. I’m sorry it’s been a struggle. Sending hugs.
Well poo! I live watching you two work on this chateau
Wish you all well! So sorry to hear the chateau will be sold! I know it must be heart breaking after all your hard work! Best to you all!
Thank you 😊
PS you are an amazingly talented and lovely family - a joy to watch! Thank you 🙏
Watched from the beginning! Very exciting times ahead for you but sad to not see the chateau journey ❤
Wishing you all the best. It has been fantastic getting to know you and your project. I’ve learned a lot. I look forward to the next project. Beth, you do a fantastic job!
Thank you so much!
I just want to say that I’ve so enjoyed watching you cultivate the the chateau. You’re so hardworking and talented it’s amazing. I have become as addicted to your channel as anything I’ve seen on the tube. That being said, I wish the very best for all of you and though I ultimately will miss seeing you bring the home into full bloom, I would want you to do the best thing for yourselves whatever that is and wherever it takes you. Thank you so much for sharing your dream. I’ll be watching and following❤️😊
Thank you 😊
Best of luck to you and thank you for the lovely content! 💛
Will be sad to see you go but good luck with whatever the future brings. You have achieved what a lot of us wish we had.
