ABOUT US:
Hello! I’m Vivienne, the châtelaine of a small 19th century neo-Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France, which I share with my delightful (and wonderfully funny!) husband, Simon, our daughter, and -whenever possible- lovely friends and family.
This is not our first chateau! 23 years ago, we bought a much larger castle nearby, which we loved with all our hearts. However, nearly 2 decades, many happy memories, countless renovations, and several small fortunes later, we made the very difficult, empty-nesting decision to downsize. With great luck and perseverance, we found our current petit château, which we are now decorating and updating with love, humour, comfort, and -of course- antiques and art!
We adore France and its many unique facets: its people, culture, landscapes, wine, food, art, and history. We also love being surrounded by châteaux, both public and private, which we can explore together! After 20 years here, we have learned many things about living in France, renovating châteaux, and appreciating the extraordinary riches surrounding us. We originally decided to make these videos as a way to share our lives with our loved ones worldwide during the pandemic lockdowns. However, we soon realised that many others are at home alone, and it is our privilege to open our home to you, our new friends. We hope you will join us on our adventures in this exceptional location, and we look forward to sharing a little Château Love!

Vivienne did you see day before yesterday’s episode Château Dairies? Philip & Stephanie were at a vide grenier visiting her aunt at the new house and they came across this stunning 🤩 Art Nouveau Fireplace Screen 🤤 the furniture is so far and few between…so I thought you or Sarah & Steve would appreciate it.
🥰
Simon is awesome 👍🏻 🫳🏻🎤
Rub my belly!!! 😂sum buddy feels better!
I ❤a day of 🏰❤
btw note on wall adorable 🥰
Please Viv, open that window when he is sanding, even with a mask, he'll see better if the dust is flying out the window!!!
It's so hard to find Art Nouveau pieces because it was such a short time in history when artists created them. The fireplace screen was so lovely and the needlepoint castle reminded me of Chateau Love!
@@kindlydude ikr that screen had such beautiful lines. We looked at a beautiful old A.N. place in the hills above Cannes that included some furniture 🤦🏻♂️ it was the project we are not looking for, and it would have been an expensive nightmare to update furnish and landscape.
The little note you wrote to Simon and the heart he put on the back of the paneling made me smile. Your love for each other is palpable! 🩷💙
Vivienne, €150 for two rugs and a lamp are my kind of prices. Congratulations!
There were many tempting little treasures to be had.
The bathroom is really coming together.
❤ from TX!
Your husband is the sweetest person.
Poor puppy. Sending healing thoughts his way!
You two are so lovely together!
Gorgeous ! We have a husky to , does your pupp have husky in her ?,
I'm so happy your baby is doing well. Simon does beautiful work all over where it is needed. I'm so. happy to see him get a tile break. You both work well together. What a beautiful couple you both are.❤❤❤
Thank you Vivienne, I love going to houses where there is history. The wonderful goodies have a story. I had to help clean my mother's place. It was painful. Thank you for supporting this family. Life is so real.
God bless you and Simon and fur baby. Have a blessed week!!!
So happy to see Bodie feeling better! Love all your roses! Great job on the paneling and painting Simon!
Love from Mary in Southern California 💗
So happy to see your fur baby feeling better! The roses are beautiful! I cannot wait to see the bathroom finished and where you have placed the rugs. May you have a wonderful week!
I am really enjoying your vlogs! You 3 ( or I should say 4 including Baudelaire) are such a lovely family! What did Isabella get her Masters Degree in? She is lovely and she and her boyfriend make a nice pair!!! I love, love, love your chateau!!! I am totally addicted to Chateau Love, Journey to the Chateau( Patrick & Stuart) and Chateau Diaries ( Stephanie and Phillip). Now that I am retired from my career, my time is my own and I can watch to my heart’s content ( in between volunteer work). Elizabeth in Texas
Glad the pup is better now he just got to.use the leg to built muscles again 😊the toses are breathtaking ❤all the best 😊❤
Your chateau is a fairy tale castle! Perfect!
Complete with its own Cinderella and Prince Handyman!
Your chateaux is beautiful inside and out.
So happy your pup is on the mend. Loved the books and that exquisite bust. The rugs were a bargain. Bathroom looking great!
Vivienne I love watching you finding you antiques, your husbands DIY and your garden walks but I’m sorry it’s your dog above anything that has stolen my heart!!😊😊❤
The rich velvet rose! Those pink roses in the back.
So wonderful to see the roses and doggie feeling better and your honey bun husband
Loving those Rose's Thanks for the lovely walk thru in the garden ❣
Beautiful Roses…
Your puppy is a little Brave.Such a character.Amazing buys.🏰🌞😄🎉
What extraordinarily beautiful woodwork you do, Simon! Such a talented man with such a talented wife, as well. A real, genuine power couple. Your little boy looks so happy now that he's very much on the mend! His little face is just lit up with happiness!! Vivienne, loving your videos! They are always so chocker-block full of vignettes of your glorious chateau life!! Thank you so much for the enjoyment!! 🇺🇸
Looking great! I'm super excited to see it finished! Thanks for wearing your mask Simon, future Simon will thank you!
🙏 Beau will be fully recovered soon!
Love the rug's you bought Vivienne, glad to see your fur baby is getting better, can not wait for the finishing off the bathroom love the colour so far great job Simon take care and see you both next time 💕🌼🤗
Your roses are stunning! So glad little Bowie is on the mend! The bathroom looks fantastic! Cannot wait to see what you paint!
Love the bathroom and SO happy little Bowie is doing better! Excited for the continuing journey!
Bonjour Vivienne and Simon, how wonderful for Bowie to have that cone of shame off. I think once he steps down of his paw, realizes that there isn't any pain, he will be running on all fours again. I love the rugs they were so pretty. The bathroom is looking so beautiful, well done both of you. Love from N.Y.
His heart shows through his eyes.
Your house shows so well Vivienne! Your garden is in its glory. You even have a touch of home... A Magnolia!!
We just purchased our home here in GA and I can't wait to put in a rose garden.
I'd love to see your last home. Have you done an episode sharing it? You and Simon were made for each other. A romance for the ages. ❤
Shine on girlfriend!
I’m always out working on projects and my garden in my pajamas or a robe
Always do that
It’s a restful way to ease into the day
❤
A pleasure to see your bathroom becoming more and more beautiful with all the good job that Simon have done ! Also to see Beaudelaire so cute and how he asks you to play with him like if he was speaking ! But most of all that in the château « love » is not a legend and inhabited by two lovers 😅! I wish you to blessed and happy ❤
Beautiful roses. Especially Papa Meilland, which is said being a bit delicate to handle, smells the best and has the most beautiful red, obviously is doing well.
Vivianne and Simon
You were so right on the color, Vivianne. That so keeps the warmth of the floor.
Simon, imho, is one in a million. He’s not only got the skills, he’s got wonderful patience.
The exchange of love notes on wall and panel board was perfectly fitting for Chateau Love.
Know you’ll finish this off beautifully & I cannot wait.❤
I love that Simon does DIY in a collared shirt😂
The bathroom is going to be wonderful. Sweet pup!
What a good sport Simon is. I love love love your videos, they are so uplifting and I can not wait to see everyone of them. Thank you for bringing us along on your adventure. Love from Gail from the Land Downunder. xxxx
I like the final color. You as an artist see colors more vividly than the rest of us and you just know what’s right when you see it. Can’t wait to see after the decorative painting. (Nothing worse than mint green in anything except ice cream 🤣).
I’m so happy Bowie is feeling better. The roses are lovely. Simon did a wonderful job on the bathroom. Can’t wait to see what you guys do next.❤
I always have so much fun watching your videos. You and Simon bring joy!
Really glad to see Beau so happy and active again. Your garden is beautiful. A parents house clearance is a traumatic experience. It took me two years as my parents both lived to their late 90s after 40odd years in the same house and they saved everything. Vivienne the rugs look lovely and Simon has done a wonderful job with the Bathroom. Can’t wait to see you final touches with the decorative touches.💚
You guys are the real deal. I admire the whole family!
The room is looking beautiful! Good work both of you. Glad you're posting more these days.
I enjoy your video's mostly because of the love so beautifully obvious between you and Simon. Gives me a warm feeling knowing there is stil respect, consideration, and love in this very complicated world. ❤ Also Love the bathroom!
The lady statue is beautiful.
I have a great idea for the walls. Paint each one as a frieze! I think that would look amazing flanking each side of the window, with a ceiling frieze and center chandelier!
Oh I love how this bathroom is coming together ❤
The paneling is making your beautiful windows stand out even more, well done.
Love the colour you mixed together, and can’t wait for your artistic work on the sloping ceiling Vivienne!
This is such a beautiful channel, I’m always so excited when one of your videos comes up.
I’m so pleased to see your beautiful boy is on the road of recovery.
We have two very special Airedales, one wasn’t well last week and it is such a a worry, much better now thank goodness.
xx
💕Simon is so romantic💕I’m so glad you’re doing decorative painting I’m sure it will look amazing & add the finishing touches to your bathroom💕
What a great team you both are. Happy to see your well loved dog happy and feeling better.❤
Love what you are doing and as for the outside - it’s huge! What a lot of work you do to maintain not only inside but outside too. Impressive ❤
I am definitely impressed with your husband‘s DIY skills. I always did extra work to pay others who are more highly skilled. However, there is definite satisfaction in the doing when you are a craftsman. From watching the Château group it is clear that feathering ones nest is , something that never stops. I’ve suggested in the past to other members of the group they might consider upping the charity bit. My father used to say he wouldn’t run a benefit for that man when discussing somebody who was well off. In your case, you were obviously well off, and it would be wonderful to watch you getting engaged with charitable activities. I know there are people out there who need your help.
I am happy to hear and see Baudelaire feeling better. May I ask his prognosis on his leg.
Simon, you have done an awesome job on your day off. That bathroom will be beautiful. I think you got a good deal on the rugs and lamp, Vivienne. You have acquired some more beautiful pieces of antique jewelry. They are exquisite. Stay well and see you next time.❤
I’d go back for the beautiful marble bust!
That color is very
Inviting that Simon has done
An I love the way
He did the panel
Ing😊😊😊
The secret garden is stunning and I too love asparagus. How wonderful to be able to grow them. Absolutely love the colour and panelling in the bathroom. Simon did a fabulous job. Looking forward to your decorative painting.❤
Yippee ! ! You listened about the decorative painting !
So happy to see Bowie running. You guys bring such sunshine ☀️
Don’t feel bad Vivienne, my husband painted the entire house……it was pink instead of a beige. Had to repaint lol. The bathroom is looking so lovely already!
What a beautiful bathroom you’re creating! Love the paint colour & looking forward to seeing what your decorative paint ideas are, to finish it with! Baudelaire is so sweet the way he jumps up and down wanting to play, despite his operation!
What a lovely vlog!!!! Simon you did such a good job on the paneling. I thought the love letter and heart emblem on the wall was very Chateau Lovey!!! So glad puppy is getting better. Love the colors you chose. Best.
The rugs you found are beautiful. The bathroom is coming along nicely.
The bathroom window sets the stage beautifully. ❤
The lady certainly had some lovely pieces i couldn’t have passed the marble bust by she was stunning - rugs looked lovely and excited to see the finished bathroom thanks for sharing ❤😊
Great deal on the rugs& lamp!
I love going to estate sales but sometimes they think they can get ebay prices!
So happy Beau is feeling and doing well. Love the colors in the bathroom. Thrilled you will be doing decorative painting on the slope walls. Can’t wait to see your design 😍😘
I feel like the two side walls of the window in the bathroom would look amazing if they are cover in a mirror each, it would ever make the bathroom look lighter and bigger.
Dear Vivian, NO wonder you buy Chateau upon Chateau with a DIY'er on your side like Simon, NO wonder!! When I thought, after the panelling we will see nothing more DIY, he even went on and persevere, right through all your orders about exact colours. Wow!! You are a win-win team. Excellent choice of colour, if the camera is true to the real colour. You can go oldie "worldie" with that colour or totally modern. Such a good colour. My favourite "go to" colour..
Lovely color! The bathroom is going to be beautiful! I'm excited to see what kind of 'decorative paint you embellish the upper walls with. An ethereal trompe l'oiel landscape would be lovely. I am gob-smacked at how he can just paint an entire bathroom with NO drop cloth, wearing his ordinary clothes (apparently not getting a spot of paint on them), and with just a small paint brush. I've always been astonished at the various chateau chronicles I watch on YT, in which paint rollers are NEVER employed; just tiny paint brushes. Chatelaines must all be a masochistic breed, as that is the slowest kind of painting. I'd be tearing my hair out after doing several coats of paint-by-brush!!
Papa Meilland has always been my favourite rose. I have one in my garden in Johannesburg, SA.
Simon is a Saint.
We enjoyed watching. You’re both very lovely, and we like those smiling eyes of yours.
Love the colour of the bathroom.😊
Wow..the bathroom is looking great!
Very pretty roses! Have you thought of hiring a gardener? I'm sure Stephanie can help you out.
Ooh! I can't wait to see your decorative paintings on the walls!
FYI, beautiful Beau, our beautiful dog had to have a hip replacement at 18 months, (8yrs now) we had physio for him and Aqua walking for doggies/cats! Hope your Vet has informed you of these options for his recovery?! Just, love, love your guys work ethics, you are so creative and have great knowledge and can do attitude! Thank you for sharing. 🙏👍💫🥰
Vivienne and Simon! Your vlogs are always a great mix of everything! Simon has done a great job on the bathroom! I'm just amazed of all the work he did! Also nothing wrong with DIY in your robe!! Noticed Simon's DIY attire! From robe to long sleeve collared light colored button up shirt! He was a trooper with the paint color! Your right though, the color is important!
good job getting the pretty rugs! always a bit sad going to estate sales but i always promise the previous owners that i will take good care of the things they loved!
Such a Beautiful Chateau
Xx😊
Can hardly wait for your painting. To start❤️
C'est la maison du bonheur ❤
The 400€ head statue was gorgeous!!!
...It really was beautiful ...museum quality even.
The bathroom colour is good. Love your rugs
Worth the trial and error to achieve the right colour looking great 😊
You are both adorable! You love is so abundantly beautiful❤ you both have a fantastic work ethic, which in turn you continue to transform your home into a stunning château❤
Hi from Australia I’m new too your channel, frist seen you both with Stephanie and Philip ,but now enjoying watching your videos, your château is lovely 💙💗🇦🇺
Gretian green from Benjamin Moore is a nice " neutral" green.. pretty close to what you created mine is a bit less yellow
I absolutely love your channel! The the bathroom is really coming along and I can't wait to see your decorative painting in there! You are quite the artist Vivienne so I know it is going to be amazing. Happy to see the Baudelaire doing so much better!
I think you nailed the green. The look is belle epoque. I hope that's what you were aiming for. ❤from Australia.
I love your chateau and you've renovated it so tastefully ❤
4:40 love your potager garden! How wonderful to have an orchard and all the wonderful fruits and space to have a veggie garden! How many acres do you have? Happy to see lil Bowie in great spirits. 150 for all! Love a bargain! Excited to see your artistic creation on the bathroom walls!
