This is one of the best tours of a chateau you have ever done. His knowledge of history of the chateau at different periods and the people who lived there is incredible. What a wonderful estate with two very interesting and likable owners. The bloopers were so fun. A great first episode for your new channel.
I think the bloopers shows how much time and commitment, both Philip and Stephanie have, to give us all, the best possible tour of this beautiful chateau
I love it when owners of places like this, actually leave or put back the history and live with in it. I agree, the kitchen is spectacular. The size of it, the beautiful arches, the fireplace, plus modern stoves, dishwashers, etc. So much history in these walls, and the owners who appreciate it. Thank you for sharing all of this with us.
The ending, when the wheels came off was such fun. People are people the world over and who among us does not had a marvelous memory of laughing uncontrollably over - nothing. Well done.
This is better than any show on the history channel. Congratulations on a mesmerising first episode. This château and it’s history expert owners would be fabulous to have a regular spot on your channel.
What a great start to a new series! The Chateau owners are so down to earth and likeable. Their knowledge of history made this first episode very special. Stephanie, you’ve done it again! ❤
@@rose-marie7351 Rose-Marie, it was the microphone in the dish. Stephanie replied to me! I am honored, as that she is so busy. The video ended, an then afterwards, I realize how seamless it was, Stephanie has picked up methods from all of her channel 4 work!
What a fabulous Launch Episode Stephanie! Congratulations! This was SO interesting and such fun. Loved all the history, the beautiful gardens and the bloopers were epic. Thank you all!
All the best with the new channel Stephanie. I've lived in Australia since I was 3 years old (born in London) and I adore chateaus, history and Europe in general (especially France). I was struck down with a rare bone disease 8 years ago (mid 40s) and am now physically disabled in a wheelchair and unable to travel. I'm so enjoying travelling from home, through your channels, others you've shared and all the Escape to the Chateau DIY vloggers. As I read other comments today I wanted to encourage you.... There will always be people who love, like or dislike any creative content. I'm a blogger, Podcaster and have just had my first book published (my memoirs/plus tips for others living with chronic disease to live the best life possible). I know how hard it is to try and decide what to share and what direction to take with a brand. My story is one of love, laughter, faith and hope..... a little similar to your "life, love and laughter" Just be true to yourself and follow your heart. Doing this will always ensure you will connect with those who will appreciate all you are doing. Hope you're enjoying your holiday....also so important to rest and take a break from the public life. Take care, Sam x
I am dying with laughter!!! The bloopers makes me really enjoy you all so much more! lol! What delightful people you are. And now on a serious note… I really appreciate the care the owners are putting into the castle. Back to laughing with you all again!
Fascinating to hear the history of this beautiful chateau. I love when the owners are the custodians of these magnificent homes and allow us in to appreciate their beauty. Merci beaucoup.
Chris shared so much history of the château, I actually watched this video several times to make notes so I can research. Thank you so much for introducing your viewers to this magnificent château & their owners. Congratulations on your new channel! ❤️
Congratulations Stephanie. 🎉 If this video is a harbinger of delights to come then this channel will be a resounding success. Loved La Motte, loved your content. Can’t wait for more.
Miss Jarvis takes her guidebook, her gloves and parasol. And ventures to the country to find a house to call. Bedazzling the owners with charm and gratitude. They soon unlock all chambers and serve her even food. No secret left uncovered. All passage ways explored. Miss Jarvis is quite thorough when she attacks the fort. The audience applaudes her. For they do learn a lot. From grizzly crimes committed to brand of chamberpot. I bow and I salute her: For entertainment‘s prime. Miss Jarvis is a diamond. A treasure of her time ! 🥇😘
💖👑👑💖🎬🎥📽👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼l know am going to love this channel . This chateau is one of the most Beautiful chateaus l have ever seen .The bloopers at the end are Hilarious such great fun l was laughing because once you start with the giddles its so hard to stop 😂😂.Congratulations with the new channel and Thank you 💖☺💖👍🏻xxxx
I was very impressed with not only the age and restoration of this castle but the wealth of information regarding its history that Chris shared with us. I was in stitches with the bloopers at the end. 😂 Thank you.
Wow! You’ve done it yet again with your appreciation of history, introducing us to such lovely people & worthy custodians of this charming château, with impressive knowledge and great taste! What an interesting, fun, exceptional video! Thank you & can’t wait for the next one. The bloopers show your genuine friendships and sense of humour too.. so thanks for the extra laugh at the end!
This is one of the most beautiful castles I've seen and the history omg, what a corker Stephanie and Philip well done on blowing our minds. Haha nick and Dan so funny. Xx
Well done all. Lovely friends, lovely home and what knowledge about the history. Well done on the filming Philip, very professional. And I dearly love the bloopers section. I’d be delighted if something daft Ike that were in every episode on this channel.
Chris is amazing! His knowledge and passion for the history of the castle and it’s content is simply breathtaking! The bar has been set - this channel is going to be spectacular!
How refreshing Stephanie, this was really great! I actually saw you through Chateau DIY and heard about your channel and enjoyed the show so much and started to follow you and then followed to this new one as well. I really want to visit chateau’s in France and you, Phillip and everyone are so great and love the energy and dynamic so great!!
Stephanie you are delightful. Phillip’s life has to be so enriched because of you, your infectious personality, your joie de vivre, and your intellectual prowess. Admire and adore you so much.
The bloopers at the end were so funny. Filming everything to look natural is so hard. Thank you. The history of this place was absolutely fascinating. Well done.👏
Also, I’m quite glad to now know where Borgia-Jesus painting from my childhood church (in a tiny mountain town in the US) came from. I always thought he looked a little too spiffy! 😉🫶🏼
This was a ton of fun! Beautiful, beautiful Chateau/Castle and it’s so cool to see the passion and knowledge of the owners! I feel as though I had a lesson in history, but a million times more interesting and fun than school ever could be! 🏰😉👏🏻
What a phenomenal first video for this new channel. The history content alone makes it substantial. Philip does his extraordinary video taping knowing exactly what the viewers eyes want to see. The sliding chapel stained glass windows, the likely provenance of the "Unicorn at Fountain" tapestry, the "wooden stockade" from the 15th century tower, the tailors bedroom, the "Throne Room", the kitchen of all kitchens....all so simply marvelous !!!
Chris and Sonia are utterly delightful. Their castle Chateau de la Motte Feuilly is superb. Fancy it being connected with the Borgia family! The chapel is beautiful too. What an incredible gem of a castle. Thank you Stephanie, Philip and course Chris and Sonia so very much for sharing this very beautiful place.
Very interesting, the owner knows so much about the history of his castle. I love this new channel looking forward to seeing more. Especially the bloopers
It's Amazing to see layers and layers of history through your eyes. Thank you for letting us step into past and take a peek at the lives back then. Beautifully done! And I will be looking forward to the bloopers at the end of each video from now on!
Ollie and I will be launching a separate travel channel, too! We’ve already filmed over 10 videos. But it will be more holiday type videos, whereas here I’ll be focusing on chateaux, towns and antiques (like my old Sundays at the Chateau videos 😊)
@@GrandTourofEurope Thankyou for the feedback. Everything in due course no doubt! You make us all fall in love with France over and over again..... You really are a National Treasure. Continued success to you all and in all your endeavours!
I would've been happy to watch a tour of this beautiful castle for at least a couple of hours! It's absolutely stunning!! The outside was so beautiful as well! I would love to see the sitting room after they have redone it. I'm sure it will be beautiful. The bloopers at the end were so funny! When watching one of these magnificent tours we don't realize how many hours of filming it takes. At least I don't. The editing flows so seamlessly that it feels like you only filmed for a little while not hours and hours. It makes me appreciate the vlogs even more!! This new channel makes me extremely happy!!😁
What an amazing place with so much history oozing out of it. I agree that the kitchen is drool worthy. I also love the family history that they are adding to the chateau with pieces from their own relatives. I also enjoy the little tongue in cheek pieces but I think my favourite place is the thrown room.
This is so awesome!! Loved this couple and the castle!! I’d love to know more of Chris’ history and how he came to own the castle and how he met his wife!! Just beautiful!! I hope they start their own channel!! Love from Mary in Southern California 💗
I'm doubled over laughing from the bloopers as well but will stop long enough to wish you a HUGE congratulations on your new channel. It's already a winner!! What a magnificent place to start! ❤
Being a lover of history, your new channel is deeply appreciated. The added bonus on top of the wonderful tour of such an historic and beautiful Chateau were the outtakes. They were both delight and reminder of just how much time and effort goes into each of your videos. Loved all of you cracking up. Thank you for the history, laughter, and all that you do.
The owner of this Chateau is so full of information, and tells it in such an interesting way. His wife is soooo beautiful, in her beautiful dress. You too look so elegant too Stephanie. So wonderful to see people living and loving such a beautiful Chateau. Thank you for your first vid in your new series. xxx
What a love couple and beautiful Château, he is so knowledgeable and I really enjoyed hearing the history of their home. I especially love his sense of humor..the throne room with the bells and whistles, the little box hiding the sewing machine in the Taylor’s room. The bloopers at the end were hilarious.
🍁I love how the owner puts in fun whimsy with his history of the château, such as the ‘throne room loo’ 🤣 So amazing all his knowledge, this vlog was fascinating to listen to. The kitchen is my favourite room😍
Oh my gosh-this was AMAZING! The chapel was really special. You all brought the viewer right into the space- I felt like I was there with you all! The blooper reel was hysterical- I had tears coming out of my eyes!! Looking forward to your next one!! :)
Thank you Chris and Sonia for inviting your friends Stephanie and Philip to see the interior of your magnificent and historically breatthtaking Chateau de la Motte Feuilly. I was blown away by Chris's research into La we Motte' s origins and fascinating history connection to Caesar Borgia and the sad story of his wife who loved him so devotedly but in vain. The Chapel is magnificent; the Towers incredible and the one with stocks, left in place for hundreds of years, although haunting, is an invaluable and remarkable piece of history. There is too many marvels to mention but I shall be watching this video often. My favourite Chateau and history. Thank you all so much. The bloopers were hilarious and Chris and Sonia delightful. Xxxx♥️
Oh Stephanie I am going to love this channel. I had watched your vlog first of course and then to see more of this really incredible Château was such a treat. It’s just mind blowing how old and the history to this place is just amazing and SO interesting and what a lovely couple that own it and are restoring it as tastefully, historically but loveable and comfortable all at the same time. To think of all the people that have lived and been to this Castle over the many hundreds of year would be astounding. I will be looking forward to seeing your videos each month. The laughing, giggly bloopers were so funny as well. Thank you.
Good grief 🤣😄😁 the bloopers were amazing!! Drew the attention of my whole household. Gorgeous castle!! Thoroughly enjoyed the tour and mini history lessons!!
I have been very lucky through the years to have stayed in many French chateaux and every single time my enthusiasm from childhood resurfaced. I am always like a kid wanting to see everything in the chateau. What a pleasure to see that in you Stephanie, you live in a chateau yet enjoy the discovery with a childlike attitude. I think that is what my wife and I love about your channels. Merci and we love the bloopers. 😂👍🏻❤️
Wonderful! I love not only seeing these beautiful old buildings, but hearing the history too. The bloopers made me laugh too. I've been in that situation filming and not able to stop laughing. Sometimes you have to give it a few minutes for sure. Oh goodness.
I am one of your Patreons who said just leave all your videos on one channel, but seeing this makes me agree with your decision. Great job. And please, more blooper reels. I’m wiping the tears from my eyes. Sooo funny!!
@@arnicepernice8656 since Stephanie is hardly the one driving those nails in the paneling and replacing rotten wood or all those other renovation jobs, she is free to go explore her area and bring us back fantastically entertaining content. I’m 100% on board and couldn’t be happier to keep sending her my “thousands” for her pure entertainment value. It’s definitely a “good look”.
This was fabulous. It was so interesting. And that kitchen is amazing. The history of this chateau could be a mini series. So fascinating. Wonderful video, Stephanie. Bravo!!!
Merci pour autant d'intelligence et d'authenticité. Félicitations pour votre travail et votre habileté à nous faire partager vos découvertes et vos rencontres. Vous embeillisez notre quotidien.✨
Oh my! The bloopers was amazing! Had me laughing along with all of you. Here I thought his wife was going to save the day, and then the laughter! Best video ever, how are you going to top this one. Everyone should do bloopers, we all need the laughter in our lives.
You've set the gold standard. Looking forward to future Grand Tours very much indeed. History, art, architecture and mystery. What a beautiful chateau.
I'm sure your new channel will be a great success! So glad you are launching this new channel as I have always felt this type of vlog is what you do best. (I've really missed Sundays at the Chateau, and your more in depth travel documentaries. I would love if you do a segment on Grasse and the history of perfumeries, and any chateaux involved in early perfume making. ( hope you do not mind me suggesting!)
Congratulations Stephanie your new channel is amazing. The chateau is absolutely stunning thank you for making it possible for the world to see it. Phillip and yourself transport us to wherever you are and we feel as if we are there with you all. Thank you another great channel to enjoy. ❤
Thank your hosts for inviting us into their private home. I watch lots of history channels and often Chateaux owned by women or the smaller ones have been overlooked (like Lalande and this chateau). The features in the towers are so unique and how they have arranged the kitchen is fantastic. In the past to hold the heat in, keep ingredients separate and stop cross contamination of food, the smaller rooms would have been necessary.
In the past, the kitchens in chateaux were huge. That's why the owner said that he knocked down the partition walls which created 3 small rooms in this old space. Teh chateau de la Motte Fouilly is not a "small" chateau in the sense that it is part of the French history and is well known by any historians.
@@yomiv6232 Really. No separation of food stuffs by partition walls? Food contamination is a real issue in an kitchen. Vegetable sinks are coming back into fashion and issues with home cooks not knowing how to stop cross contamination in food is an issue now. My grandmother was a professional cook, the other grandmother a nurse and my father a microbiologist.
This was an excellent tour as Chris is a really delightful host and his knowledge of the history is amazing…you all were having sooo much fun towards the end of the tour😂😂😂 well done❤️❤️❤️
I am so excited for your new channel. Very interesting listening to the owners talking about its history. The bloopers at the end were priceless. I was bent over laughing with all of you. A fabulous first Grand Tour!
Tour was lovely. I can't wait to see more adventures. The outtake of laughter was wonderful. A/C in the room was a brilliant idea to help keep people cool while sleeping in the heat that engulfing the earth. So excited to see more.
Loved this! What great hosts and history!! Such great times! Wonderful tour of this historical castle. So hard to imagine her without her handsome husband, who was fulfilling his duties .
Thank you Stephanie 💗 I love watching your channel about Lalande 💗 But after the first episode of the new one 🥰 I'm definitely staying. The behind the scenes bit is amazing! I love you, your energy and both your channels. Be Blessed! 💗
This is one of the best tours of a chateau you have ever done. His knowledge of history of the chateau at different periods and the people who lived there is incredible.

Yes that was my favorite 😍🤩👍🏽

All the best with the new channel Stephanie. I've lived in Australia since I was 3 years old (born in London) and I adore chateaus, history and Europe in general (especially France).

It’s just mind blowing how old and the history to this place is just amazing and SO interesting and what a lovely couple that own it and are restoring it as tastefully, historically but loveable and comfortable all at the same time. To think of all the people that have lived and been to this Castle over the many hundreds of year would be astounding. I will be looking forward to seeing your videos each month. The laughing, giggly bloopers were so funny as well. Thank you.
You guys are a little bit more than tipsy at the end!
I could live in that kitchen!
Merci bien à tous!
Good grief 🤣😄😁 the bloopers were amazing!! Drew the attention of my whole household. Gorgeous castle!! Thoroughly enjoyed the tour and mini history lessons!!
I have been very lucky through the years to have stayed in many French chateaux and every single time my enthusiasm from childhood resurfaced. I am always like a kid wanting to see everything in the chateau. What a pleasure to see that in you Stephanie, you live in a chateau yet enjoy the discovery with a childlike attitude. I think that is what my wife and I love about your channels. Merci and we love the bloopers. 😂👍🏻❤️
So happy to get this channel! I love when you do deep dives into other chateaux, history and culture.
ℹ absolutely loved the Bloopers!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 And loved the castle 💛💛💛💛💛
Wonderful! I love not only seeing these beautiful old buildings, but hearing the history too. The bloopers made me laugh too. I've been in that situation filming and not able to stop laughing. Sometimes you have to give it a few minutes for sure. Oh goodness.
I am one of your Patreons who said just leave all your videos on one channel, but seeing this makes me agree with your decision. Great job. And please, more blooper reels. I’m wiping the tears from my eyes. Sooo funny!!
Thanks, Judy! I’ve been agonizing about this decision for a long time, but I’m happy to have finally taken the leap 😊
@@arnicepernice8656 since Stephanie is hardly the one driving those nails in the paneling and replacing rotten wood or all those other renovation jobs, she is free to go explore her area and bring us back fantastically entertaining content. I’m 100% on board and couldn’t be happier to keep sending her my “thousands” for her pure entertainment value. It’s definitely a “good look”.
Lovely to see such pride and passion in one's home. It's a gift to all of us. Thank you, Stephanie.
Such a beautiful castle and historical place thank you for sharing friend God bless
Omg! I so needed a good laugh!!The ending was amazing! As was the chateau and it’s history! Thoroughly enjoyed this episode :)
Enormous treat...so fun with Stephanie and the hosts..
I've always had a dream to live in a castle or chateau one day,but now I can watch it and still dream. This is a beautiful castle and gardens.
This was fabulous. It was so interesting. And that kitchen is amazing. The history of this chateau could be a mini series. So fascinating. Wonderful video, Stephanie. Bravo!!!
Another day of gorgeousness! Thank you Stephanie~
Can’t wait!!! What fun!!! Thank you for all you give us! Love and laughter from Florida.
Merci pour autant d'intelligence et d'authenticité. Félicitations pour votre travail et votre habileté à nous faire partager vos découvertes et vos rencontres. Vous embeillisez notre quotidien.✨
❤️❤️❤️
This is fabulous. Can't wait to watch every week. A wonderful idea. Your knowledge of history is amazing. You are a great tour person.
Oh my! The bloopers was amazing! Had me laughing along with all of you. Here I thought his wife was going to save the day, and then the laughter! Best video ever, how are you going to top this one. Everyone should do bloopers, we all need the laughter in our lives.
You've set the gold standard. Looking forward to future Grand Tours very much indeed. History, art, architecture and mystery. What a beautiful chateau.
The bloopers are hilarious, I love having un fou rire like that! Thank you for adding that :D
I loved the bloopers almost more than the rest. It was so natural. Excellent premier.
Hi! You've a gorgeous picture on your profile! 😍😍Just decided to stop by and say hi 🙂. I hope my compliment is appreciated 🌹🌹
@@jacksonpeterson6899 thank you 😇
@@barbaragrace1992 you're welcome 😊 where are you from?
I'm sure your new channel will be a great success! So glad you are launching this new channel as I have always felt this type of vlog is what you do best. (I've really missed Sundays at the Chateau, and your more in depth travel documentaries. I would love if you do a segment on Grasse and the history of perfumeries, and any chateaux involved in early perfume making. ( hope you do not mind me suggesting!)
I’d love that!
What a delightful idea 🌹🌹🌹
Congratulations Stephanie your new channel is amazing. The chateau is absolutely stunning thank you for making it possible for the world to see it. Phillip and yourself transport us to wherever you are and we feel as if we are there with you all. Thank you another great channel to enjoy. ❤
STEPHANIE that tour was brilliant, what a great castle, a lovely couple, couldn't stop laughing at the end
Thank your hosts for inviting us into their private home. I watch lots of history channels and often Chateaux owned by women or the smaller ones have been overlooked (like Lalande and this chateau). The features in the towers are so unique and how they have arranged the kitchen is fantastic. In the past to hold the heat in, keep ingredients separate and stop cross contamination of food, the smaller rooms would have been necessary.
In the past, the kitchens in chateaux were huge. That's why the owner said that he knocked down the partition walls which created 3 small rooms in this old space.
Teh chateau de la Motte Fouilly is not a "small" chateau in the sense that it is part of the French history and is well known by any historians.
@@yomiv6232 Really. No separation of food stuffs by partition walls? Food contamination is a real issue in an kitchen. Vegetable sinks are coming back into fashion and issues with home cooks not knowing how to stop cross contamination in food is an issue now. My grandmother was a professional cook, the other grandmother a nurse and my father a microbiologist.
Please keep the bloopers and add them to the end, just like this for all your Chateau tours!! Just lovely.
This was an excellent tour as Chris is a really delightful host and his knowledge of the history is amazing…you all were having sooo much fun towards the end of the tour😂😂😂 well done❤️❤️❤️
I am so excited for your new channel. Very interesting listening to the owners talking about its history. The bloopers at the end were priceless. I was bent over laughing with all of you. A fabulous first Grand Tour!
This was so exciting! Can’t wait for the next one.
Nick is One in a MILLION… Bravo !!!! Fabulous Rescue of the drone !
Tour was lovely. I can't wait to see more adventures. The outtake of laughter was wonderful. A/C in the room was a brilliant idea to help keep people cool while sleeping in the heat that engulfing the earth. So excited to see more.
Loved this! What great hosts and history!! Such great times! Wonderful tour of this historical castle. So hard to imagine her without her handsome husband, who was fulfilling his duties .
Thank you Stephanie 💗 I love watching your channel about Lalande 💗
But after the first episode of the new one 🥰 I'm definitely staying.
The behind the scenes bit is amazing!
I love you, your energy and both your channels. Be Blessed! 💗
What a beautiful chateau and such a lot of historical information. Thank you all. Lovely to see that you had so much fun filming.
