Join us, Daphne and Ian, as we embark on our new chateau renovation projects! This week, we take a look at an upcoming winter project in the Hunter's Lodge and continue uncovering the stone facade of the Farmhouse. We venture into the chateau moat on our little boat so we can address a growing problem on our dungeon window.
Our beau chateau (The 500-year-old, Chateau De Lesigny), is located near Paris, France. Most of the structures around the chateau domain need a full restoration, so we are investing everything we have into making the property thrive! We are learning more about french culture and developing new skills along the way!
As a French/American UC Berkeley graduate in Agriculture (Daphne), and a U.S. Air Force Tactical Response Force Veteran/ Kinesiologist (Ian), we share a love for challenges and adventure. We have a long road ahead of us and we are excited to share the experience with you!
You can support our renovation projects by joining our Patreon Community, where you can also gain access to exclusive videos and behind the scene access with Daphne and Ian! All patron funding is used to renovate this historical French Chateau. Every patron is paramount to our chateau renovations and we thank you all tremendously!

Ian has a Keanu Reeves's vibe for me!
Yes. I noticed that he vibes Keanu Reeves Too . Especially with his hair loose .
…anyways…❤
I’ve been thinking the same 😁
And… The award for the most charming, winsome couple on CZcams goes to… Drum roll… You both! 🫶🫶🫶🎉💕🙌🙏The more I watch you guys the more I love you. I know that sounds creepy but it’s not meant to. Lol! You guys seem to have such good attitudes and really love each other! Are you ever going to consider bringing volunteers in to help every once in a while, average folks like us?
I second that 👍🤗🥰
I third that too🥰
I 5th that! 💕🤗💕
I’m number 6!
i’m 7th on the found you and more i watch love em, i’m in au far to way away to work/visit
Vinegar works great. I use 1 gallon vinegar 1 1/2 cups Epsom salt and 2 tablespoons blue Dawn Dish Soap. It kills the weeds in 2 days and is pet friendly.
Your channel flows with so much ease. It is a joy to watch you grow, restore your chateau and keep your grandpas legacy. He must be so proud of you.
Works for me, too.
Yes, the Dawn helps it stick to the growth & not wash away so easily if it rains! As soon as he said Vinegar & Water. I said Salt & Dawn Too!
Thank you for your amazing work. You are all adorable, including the animals. Ian, you look like a true Mousquetaire :)
Thank you! 🥰 We got very lucky with our pets because they are so sweet and cute! Ian loves that compliment 😄
I also thought he could pass as a French musketeer! 😊😉
I have been using this method for the last few years, but instead of water I put one cup of white salt in a big bottle of white vinegar and it works so great!
You can also use pool salt, I believe, which is very cheap (like 40# for $7)
Yes the salt and a few squirts of dish soap , the soap helps cling to the weeds surface , works better on a hot dry sunny day .
To use salt is to poison the land, you can never plant anything there again…. So salt is absolutly no for the envirement.
Euh… le sel dans le sol, s’il se dissout et s’écoule dans les parterres 🥴… plus rien ne pousse, non ? À utiliser avec beaucoup d’attentions !
Tip for the ivy. Get a 1 or 2 meter rod that you can attach 550 cord (parachute cord) at the tip of the rod. Ram through the ivy as close to the wall, gather both ends of cord, attach to your tractor and pull vines off the wall. Really helps if you cut the base of the vines and wait a day or so for them to die. For your cobbles I’d add salt to your weed killer. Think Romans and Carthage.
Happy Veterans Day to you too!
I Love Carthage. Found their Pegasus & Athena Coins on an Atocha 🪙 Adeventure. Jewelry Designer, a distinguished Italian Gentleman showed me my first one. I found an ancient one with vier boxes…like Microsoft’s logo…..just recently. Crypto Currency’Alta Art

Coco is my Hero
You guys make everything look like fun even tho I know it’s a ton of hard work!! What a difference every little bit makes.
As always I really appreciate your videography and story telling skills. You are such a joy to watch!
Thank you to all the Veterans who have served.
Love from Mary in Southern California 💗
Thank you very much, Mary! We try to have fun when working around the chateau. Mixing a little fun into the work helps keep us smiling 😊
You guys are so damn cute together, Ian looks like a proper fairy tale prince! I love watching you two!
That is so sweet of you to say 🥰 Thank you for watching!
Thank you for your and your families service. My son was in USMC 9yrs he did two tours in Iraq and worked as government contractor in Afghanistan. I have many military vets going all the way back to the American Revolution. God bless
My son was in USMC 9yrs he did two tours in Iraq and worked as government contractor in Afghanistan . You shouldn't be proud of that . Don't reply . Not a place to have a discussion about US illegal wars in the M-E & Afghanistan
I also have a long line of military service members and a Daughter of the American Revolution member. We honor our country, our family and our God. Thank you for families service. Peace be with you ❤️
As for whom ever zur Bauk is 🤦♀️☝️ why were you the one to start the “conversation” then☝️🤦♀️ “Don’t reply”
Okay, you two are so cute. My new favorite chateau channel.
Thank you, Tarri 🥰 We are happy to have you join us for our chateau journey!
Same!! Love Ian's sense of humour!😂
You two are so very brave taking on this restauration project, at the same time preserving important cultural heritage. BRAVO!!!
Thank you for your support! 😊
You two a a real joy to watch. Thank you for all that you do in allowing us to be part of it in some way.
Absolutely love your videos! Beautiful camera work and y’all are adorable together! What an incredible chateau! If only those walls could talk!! ❤from Texas! And Ian thank you for your service and your family’s service. My father was in the Navy during WWII.
Thank you for watching! We are very proud of our grandparents and yours for their service in WWII. 💕 to you in Texas!
Your videos are so kind and relaxing, pure pleasure. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Have the wind in your sails captains. God bless.
In Canada, November 11 was Remembrance Day. Thank you to all the Veterans for the freedom we have today. Grandpa would be very proud of all the hard work the two of you have put in. The chateau is looking beautiful.
You guys manage to make even the most mundane tasks enjoyable. Your videos are always so enjoyable with fantastic cinematography ❤
Your videos are such a pleasure to watch, its like taking a peak into another reality.
It has just a touch of mystery that reminds me of Christine McConnell (she leans into the glamour spooky, but the visuals and story telling are equally compelling)
Without even meaning to be so Australian (which I am), when you mentioned big spiders I thought “yeah but how big” 😂 But also as an Australian who hates spiders, I don’t envy you on that job!!
the medieval cobblestone is so pretty omg
It's not often you hear someone say, ‘Our moat gives us quite a bit of anxiety. Now I have seen your moat in all its glory, I know why it could make you anxious.
Bless you both! You work so hard! Definitely a labor of love.
You also may want to hit the base of the Farmhouse with the vinegar and salt to keep the Ivy from coming back because it will come back
The way you look at each other that is beautiful your house will be built on love.
Love listening to you banter, joke and laugh together! Adorable!
Ian thank you for your service and the rest of your family. Love watching your channel you guys are fantastic young and so talented. Looking forward to all your renovations 😊 thank you
My youngest son, Yogi (Logan), was Army Reserve.
THANK YOU, IAN, FOR YOUR SERVICE!
You two show couples how to literally build a life together! Beautiful to watch!
Garden vinegar (30-40%) mixed with a smaller ratio of water is what kills weeds. Works best if sprayed on a hot (70°) day.
Add drop dish soap as well
Thank you for sharing! We played it safe with this test spray and had a very diluted vinegar solution. If there is no effect then we will try something more effective 👍
Such a beautiful playground you two have. Glad you got the ivy down before it brought the walls down. Surprising how strong ivy is over time. Looking forward to the next project. Enjoy your week.
Terri, that would be amazing to go and help the king and his queen.🫅🏻🌷👸🏼
Agree
You guys are awesome! Happy Veterans Day Ian! Thank you for your service. My husband was in the 82nd- his father was Army- mine was marine. Both WW2 veterans.
Thank you! Happy Veterans Day to your loved ones as well! 🇺🇸 We are thankful for the service of those who came before us. Military service is a real test of character which I believe speaks volumes for all of the young WWII soldiers at that time. Much love to our Veterans and active duty brothers and sisters 💕
You won’t be disappointed, vinegar and water always kills weeds best!
What an amazing transformation.....great work guys. It is so satisfying watching ivy being removed and seeing the clean up. Thank you for taking us along on this wonderful journey. You are such a lovely couple and I really enjoy all that you do. Thank you!
I’m exhausted just THINKING of all the work you two must do to keep up that lovely place! You need to get some volunteers!
I haven’t been able to stop watching this channel it’s my absolute favorite now
Your videos are utterly charming. Nice work!! Happy Veterans Day!!
Thank you! 😊
You have a fine, dreamy property.
You two,are a dream team...for this job.
Will keep watching your progress. Good luck with your dream .
Vinegar does work! There is a scientific paper on the subjekt and also it is used in many swedish communities just because it is not poison. There is special vinegar you buy ready to use.
You have to treat several times (just like burning, the roots are still intact). In new areas to treat you have to treat minimum 2 times a season. Do not use salt.
The recipe for the weed killer is 1gallon white vinegar, 1 cup table salt and a generous squirt of Dawn dish liquid. I love your channel. You guys are doing an amazing job. The place looks great
A lot of the other chateaus used torch blower to burn them. The grass bits that grow up between the cobblestones
Your videos are part of my well-being routine. Thank you for spreading creativity, caring and calm to the world.
Cat sitting on the pillar!!!
I love how your kitty acts like the watch guard and the kitty inspector. Same with your puppy. Your choice of music is relaxing and a comfort to watch the video. I hate it when people put loud, irritating music that doesn't vibe with the type of channel they are trying to sell to an audience. Your music and videos with the drone are lovely. I love the aerial views of the property.
Thank you! Ian puts a lot of effort into choosing music, getting cool shots! We’re so happy you’re enjoying it!
Chateau Sunday is now complete. You two gladden my heart.
Ian. Thanks for your service. I enjoy watching how you both have so much fun working together . Ian I am glad you didn’t fall in the water. Love the video
Thanks
James
satisfying time lapse of removing all the ivy. Happy veterans day, from one vet to another.
Love your video content! Especially enjoyed the music... such a gorgeous and idyllic setting for this fabulously beautiful, magnificent, & historic structure! So fun to be envited along watching your interesting, entertaining & educational journey! Thank you! 😊
You’re without a doubt the best pirate I’ve ever heard of!
I’m glad you didn’t fall in the moat! Great video you two…..thank you for your service! 🇺🇸🙏🏽❤
The vinegar and water combo worked well for killing the weeds and random grass growing in my brick terrace. Have to be honest, I thought Daphne was going overboard when she went backward in the boat. You guys were having too much fun. 🙂
As I said last vlog 1gallon vinegar, 1cup salt, and tbl. Dawn. That's what I use on mine. Once does it.
jouw vriend telkens ik hem zie in de video s denk daar is musketier D'Artagnan hoe geweldig toch met zijn mooie haren wat zijn jullie een mooi koppel dat samen geniet van de renovatie je ziet gewoon twee gelukkige mensen zo zalig om naar te kijken
Just found your channel and have been watching all of them and my face hurts from smiling. You guys are too cute and so fun to watch. Your Chateau is gorgeous and romantic. Can’t wait until the garden is done. Thanks for sharing.
Bonjour, comme c'est amusant de travailler ensemble dans la joie et en harmonie ,je vous envie . Bonne continuation les amoureux
Another great video even if it was all about tackling weeds and ivy. I use dawn dish soap, vinegar, water and epson salt to keeps weeds down around our fire pit. Thank you for your service!
Standing up in the boat as it's pulled along made me think "Washington Crossing the Delaware".
Gondoliers never have these problems! And they can always get pizza in Venice!
Fun video (as always)! Here in CA Wine Country we struggle with Ivy invading the redwood , oak and pine trees. We found that (if you have time) that cutting out about 12" of the main vine at the base (where the ivy vine enters the soil) and waiting a couple of weeks the entire vine dies and pulls off the tree (or a building) easily and does not damage to tree or structure. Viola!
When you are removing ivy growing 100-150' in the air on an old redwood tree it needs to be as easy to remove as is possible. LOLs!
Thanks for providing my French moment today. Merci! (BTW thank you [and the thousands of others who have served] for your dedication.)
You two are so 🥰. Thank you for serving 🇺🇸 🇫🇷
You got a lot of “accidental exercise” getting these jobs done. Another wonderful video. Thank you for your service Ian!
Ian made me laugh riding in the boat! I am glad they laugh about the hard things because i feel like with my family, we would just end up being frustrated lol
We get frustrated pretty regularly 😆 The laughing helps though
Salt goes into the water and vinegar solution. A little bit of dishwashing detergent helps this mixture to stick to what you are spraying. Best of luck, Ian!
Such a beautiful place..❤
These videos are amazing in quality and content style/delivery. im binge watching them all one by one! Thank you so much. I hope my thumbs up and comment helps you with the almighty YT content delivery gods to more viewers!
Thanks Josh! We really appreciate that 😊 Your likes, subscribes, and encouragement mean everything to us! We hope to have you back for many videos to come!
You are just such a lovely couple, and I so enjoy watching the two of you as you go about doing your repairs.
Thank you for your service. As you can tell by my avatar, I was in the Navy Seabees and also did a few years in the Army Reserve. And yes, I was anticipating one of you to fall in. Good job.
Everyone share on you social accounts, they deserve to have massive amount of followers. They are the best I’ve seen. ❤
You know the spiders were probably freaking out over the giant spider dangling in front of them destroying their home 😂😂😂😂😂
Absolutely love you two!
Just finished watching a second time.
Ian’s story about the spiders was hilarious.
Such hard work but little by little it will get done.
Thank you for your service, Ian.

We use a propane torch to burn the weeds and it works extremely well. No direct chemical contamination and they rarely grow back. More importantly, it can be used on the stone path and the building itself. Well only on stone aspects, lol....
Another beautiful video ❤
I haven’t laughed this hard at 6:00 am in a long time well worth the watch
May you always work together so joyfully. Bless you. Be careful being on a ladder and the long reaches. I shudder when I think back on the risks I took in painting high ceilings and didn't want to move the ladder for the last little bit. Better to be safe. An old grandmother from Alabama. 🥰
Thanks for the great video!
Thank you for your Service!!
It's a great pleasure to see you
Thank you for your service Ian! 🌹🌹🌹
A pleasure to watch thank you
Thank you for your service
Great team work… love your progress
Just love you two! That was excellent. ♥
Another wonderful video! Thank you for your service.
With all that vegetation material that you clear out, have you considered getting a woodchipper? It would give make you lots of great mulch for the gardens..
Thank you for your service, Ian
Thank you for your service.
Love your vlogs. So variated and full of love and laughter.
Thank you for your service Ian!!
Thank you for making your show so enjoyable! Love your style!
You both are so amazing to take on these projects with laughter and a smile. So impressive.
I could watch videos all day of your beautiful property and of course your château! Thanks
Wonderful!!! Great job what beautiful outbuildings!!! What a joy!!!
Your videos are beautiful! I was thrilled to see a new one this morning! :)
You guys make it look like fun. Love watching your videos!!!
Thank you for your service Ian! You two work so well together and are adorable! Love your videos.
A joy to watch, keep up the good hard work it will pay off. Love your cat xx
I love watching you guys. Thank you so much for sharing your world with us.
Another great video! I always look forward to my Sunday evenings when I can binge watch all my fave Chateau vlogs!
Good job on the video and the chateau !! Keep the videos coming.
Thank you for your service everyone. Great vlog. You two do make me laugh
Just love the work you are doing, loved watching your kitty trying to grab the ivy. 🥰
Thank you for your service 🛩️
That looked hard work but fun. Another great video.
I recommend filling the cracks with patio sand. That might help greatly.
Also, it’s much easier to cut the base of the ivy and let it die before trying to pry it off. It will come away from the building with less effort.
