- Welcome back to Dreaming of a Chateau!
Happy New Years!
It's a quiet winter season at Puy Vidal for Maruca, Julia and Carolina who are huddling inside stone walls, keeping warm and prepping for the 2023 season. Our amazing gardeners Ganteille and Pascal trek across the gardens and grounds finding winter projects to prep the Château for the coming months. We welcome our lovely friends from the Steadicam Operators Association who came to visit us right after new years to experience our little corner of France. And finally, its snowing and its really cold at Puy Vidal!! This is slow winter living at Château du Puy Vidal.
From our family to you and your loved ones, Thank you so much for following our adventures, cheering us on and encouraging us all throughout 2022. Your enthusiasm and support as always means the world to us. We wish you all the blessings and magic for your celebrations for the year ahead.
-------
These are the adventures of Julia, her partner Caroline, her sister Penelope and her parents Maruca and Robert; an American family taking a leap of faith, living out a long-awaited dream.
Chateau de Puy Vidal is a medieval fortress turned renaissance Castle, and is located in the Charente region of Nouvelle Aquitaine, France. This channel is dedicated to our love of chateaux, old stones, magic, family and history. We share with you our process of applying to visas, setting up a business, purchasing a property sight unseen during COVID all before moving across the world. What happens when your dreams come true?

Seeing this channel grow from scratch is just more than wonderful. It feels just yesterday when Stephanie toured your chateau for you guys to see, and now you are actually living there. Happy for you all, that's all I can say. So glad for you.
It’s nice to have people following from the start . Stephany gave an amazing boost to our connection boost! Bless her

Gals, I’ve spent another session with a smile on my face and in my heart as I watch your adventure in your new lives!
Feeling of happiness is mutual! We love warm comments Maruca from Puy Vidal
Your channel, story, family, accomplishments are extraordinary. I predict that your channel is going to explode with great success.
❤❤❤❤magical, I have never had a white christmas so this was the next best thing❤❤❤❤ the chateau is truly beautiful❤❤❤you are doing such amazing things to it! I look forward to seeing the final transformations, from those plans
That was fabulous ladies. Just fabulous. Thank you.
You have turned your channel into something beautiful, professional, and very enjoyable. Your chateau and the gardens are spectacular all year round, but with the snow coming down and it’s peaceful quiet, and the fire is in the fireplace, there is something very special in the winter at your chateau. Ladies, you are going to be very successful and very busy! xx
❤️❤️❤️

Beautiful! So pleased to see you again. May 2023 bring you joy and success in abundance! ❤
Beautiful as always!!
As someone who had numerous tapestries, I'd protect that one by making sure the bed has a headboard so people don't sit or put their head against it.
Happy New Years ladies! Always love when you release a Vlog they are a work of art themselves.
Lisa - Thanks for watching our channel 🏰🙌🏼
Always interesting. Spectacular drone shots. Your Chateau interior and exterior stunning.
Stunning. Beautiful Chateau with so much love. You ladies light up the chateau for sure. Christmas and New Year , what a magical time, what a magical chateau. ❤
Re watching Winter at Puy Vidal as I've enjoyed it so much. I'm looking forward to the next vlog to see what's been going on in February. love it.
Your Mother is a Classic.
I'm having so much fun catching up on watching your video's.😊
Delightful! Please take us for a walk in the maze one day. Wishing you all the best for 2023! 🤩
Your videos are works of art! Love the tiles on the garden steps. The snowfall was
magical!!!
I just love you gal's. Your so great at what you do .
Looking back two years, you have accomplished so much. You have put your touch on the chateau and brought it back to life!
The Grey Days of January are the perfect time for oven meals, pots of soup, cozy fires, quiet conversations, and planning. I know Chateaus are chilly in the Winter, but I’m sure you have
found a cozy snug to stay warm in.
You are three amazing women and I wish you the very best for a successful season to come.
Caroline y Julia que bellos esta este video, confio en Dios que pronto vayamos a visitarlas y poder conocer el Chateau y poder estar con todos unos dias y disfrutar de lo hermoso que es el Chateau 🙏🙏🙏
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Another amazing video. Super impressed. All of you make the most of everything. I’m very thankful I’ve found your channel. Keep the goodness coming!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Finalmente qualcosa d incantevole da vedere....
Si sogna un po' anche noi meno fortunati
I just happened upon your channel. I am from Ohio and I will live vicariously through you all! Love love
Love your channel, your beautiful home and your lovely family. I have never commented on a channel before but I find myself binging all your videos and I am loving them! Enjoy your wonderful life 🥂
Thank you thank you for commenting and such a great response! Welcome to the channel and we hope you’ll come along on the journey with us for years to come!
Hello from Cyprus, just finished watching all your videos ladies. Keep up the good work you are all doing.
Happy New Year! Enjoy the calm and quiet of winter. I return to France this weekend to close on the acquisition of my new (old) house in the south of France; an 18th century townhouse. Cheers-
Congratulations!!!! It’s definitely a wonderful life here, I hope all goes well for you!
@@ladyofthechateau Merci. 🙂
Just a tip: I have had sets of those Laguiole steak knives for years. Ones with steel handles and ones with wooden ones as well as the horn handled ones you showed. Both steel and wood are ok in the dishwasher. You just need to oil the wooden ones every now and again. But never put the horn ones in the machine. Quick hand wash and dry to keep them beautiful and shiny.
Ooo thank you!
That man is outnumbered 😮
Love your channel and am looking forward to further videos!
Happy New Year Ladies! Get so excited when I see that you have posted. Even it just your everyday life. You live in the MOST beautiful chateau I have come across. I'm older now so I enjoy watching other people's lives. LOL♥️♥️♥️♥️😘
❤️❤️❤️we love your comments every video!
yay another video ❤❤❤
Troubadour is just gorgeous
I was just thinking..where are our ladies?? And there you are! Always a pleasure to watch your beautiful vlogs. Happy 2023
Hello ladies, I was just thinking about you yesterday. Thank you inviting us to your beautiful chateau, lovely video like always.
❤️❤️❤️
Put red dots on corners for XL sheets, green dots for double or Queen blue for single. Makes it easy, it’s hidden when sheets are on bed
Lovely video, thanks 😊
Happy New Year! So happy to see a video , again! Troubadour is so happy at Puy Vidal.
I have so much enjoyed watching you ladies during the planning process of your new business. The chateau and grounds are so beautiful. What a wonderful and magical place to wake up to we very morning. Can't wait until the next video.
Eventho Penelope and Bob aren't there this is delicious happy, full of beautiful minds.
Souls full of joy.
I'm so pleased you all are well, happy and thriving. Love seeing you all again girls. Happy new year beauties.
Thank you❤️❤️❤️
Happy New Year to you all! I’m really enjoying your videos. I lived in France during the ‘80s and have wanted to return ever since. The thing I love the most is that you capture the laidback lifestyle of the France where everyday there is time to look at the beauty in life, even in frantic Paris. Thank you 💕
Winter is so underrated--If you have the proper clothing, it can be the most magical time. (I live in Chicago, so I have the gear--LOL). I think the labyrinth looks even more beautiful with the dusting of snow. Thank you for sharing your life and home in France. I would rather watch your vlog than network TV. Until the next vlog.
Hi Ladies, this channel is the epitome of hard work, intelligence, grace and elegance. Love watching and listening to you all. Happy New Year to you x
It’s so lovely to see you all again 😊 Happy New Year & wishing you all the very best in 2023 .. glad you have your dog with you ☺️🐾💕
Wonderful video! You all have such an authentic way of welcoming your viewers into your lives, and into your daily experiences. Its clear that a great amount of thought, care and time is put into your postings, both in CZcams and Instagram.
Best wishes to you for a fantastic New Year 2023.
Beautiful video , living in your very own snow globe is a dream.
Spraying WD40 around windows and doors keeps spiders and wasps away. You have beautiful grounds and gardens.
Happy New Year ladies!
Thank you - that was so lovely! Isn’t it fantastic to live in a place where the seasons are properly tangible and lived - not masked by the hurly burly and lights of a city, and where food produce is generally local and recently grown! So good for the rhythm of body and soul👌😊
As a former NYC film person, I so appreciate your talents put to this use. I'm an unabashed #chateauporn aficionado and your content and filming skills are a pleasure to see. ("oh, they're doing a narrated montage of their friends visit- perfect!") I even laughed out loud at your doggie in the chair by the fire as a demo of how tempting it is to curl up in deep mid-winter. How do you feel about being called "ladies"? I think we've turned away from that word, as we have with "mademoiselle"... And, will you be there all winter? How is keeping warm going?
Thanks so much for another amazing video! It's so special, and I always feel like I am in a dream the whole time. Everything is so beautiful, including all of you. Janice from Arkansas USA
such lovely narration.
The snow on the château! Magnificent!
Puy Vidal in the snow is just stunning!!! I love the way the maze looks, all covered in white. Beautiful video, thank you!
So excited about the video! I looked up your instagram and I’m itching to head over!
Take all those pictures for prints and postcards, it truly looked magical people are going to want to take home those memories of such a lovely place.
Im a home stay parent for international students, when they arrive i give them a paper i prepare for their food like`s and dislike`s, it work`s wonders especially when it comes to breakfast`s and lunch`s, all they have to do is write down the food they like or dont
Oh - I missed you all so much! Glad to see this update. Your doing an amazing job I love your channel and look forward to following how your new life in France unfolds. Bon Chance! From Susan in Portland Oregon USA :) Love and best wishes
Susan, thank you for following our journey all the way from Oregon!!
Beautiful 😍 I love that you out Diane de Poitier on your logo…and behind the camera!
Thank you so much!!!! We love her!!!
I love your channel! My partner and I bought a beautiful creek side 5 acre property in the states to do something similar to what you all are doing there - artist workshops, classes, possibly overnight guests, etc. There are so many challenges that come with remodeling, maintenance, and repairs of a property like this and at times we have really questioned our choice. Lol You and your family have given us so much courage and inspiration to keep going with everything that we have been dreaming and working towards for this place, ourselves, and our family. We always look forward to your new videos….Sending you all many thanks for everything you’re sharing. ❤
Thank you for sharing a bit of your adventure with us in this comment. We wish you the best of luck, it’s definitely filled with challenges but it’s worth the work, specially if you have family at your side. ❤️ Carolina
What a stunning dream Chateau you live in. I remember the video Stephanie made for you with the owner and I couldn't believe how gorgeous it was and now with your family living there it is warm inviting and oh so elegant. Best in 2023 ❤️
Bless Stephany
Your videos are always worth the wait. The chateau is simply breathtaking. You all have done such an amazing job in the time you have been there!! Hats off to you all!!
Thank you thank you, I love watching your vlogs about your beautiful chateau as it brings back so many happy memories of living for 15 wonderful years in a stunning Moulin in Poursac not far from Angoulême from 2002 until 2015, so look forward to seeing your next one.❤
Really good trick is to sow a little corner of each blanket in a different thread you can even line them all up so when you make the bed you know what end goes at the bottom color coded by bed size or even by room
Bonne anne! Thank you for this beautiful video. You are an amazing trio and I am inspired to live my life more fully.
So beautiful! I want to come visit your chateau!
I have to say that it’s so beautiful there with the snow and let me say that pretty cat with them eyes when you filmed her omg she was like really I’m trying to sleep mama lol 😂 🥰
I absolutely love the fact that you saw the tower roof with standing water and resolved the issue yourselves! Kudos for a job well done! I am excited to see what future projects and repairs will be in store for your beautiful property.
I know you both prefer autumn colors. But just a suggestion for your website. Make seasonal pages. And update them by the current season. Otherwise people may think your season is only fall. Share the seasonal goodness.
OH MY GOD acaso tú mami es de México, que emoción tan emocionante. Regresé como siempre se regresa a lo que te gusta o amas, además de que terminé de ver el video, después de mi primer línea. Pero que linda Carolina que contestaste, gracias. y toda la familia. Un gusto y un saludo enorme a Maruca por todo su talento, el cuál pone en alto a los Mexicanos, haciéndonos ver como gente creativa, emprendedora, carismática, luchona, siempre abierta a los restos y oportunidades que da la vida y a aquellas que trabajamos para lograrlas, a dar y compartir sus logros, y toda la familia porque siempre dan lo mejor de si y no se rajan cuando las cosas se ponen medio peligrosas. Como el agua en la torre por ejemplo. Que todo sea en grande y exitoso en esta etapa de empresarias. Tengo entendido que este Miércoles reciben sus primeros huéspedes de este 2023. Abrazos y Saludos a tod@s.
Siii Maruca nació en ciudad de México! 🇲🇽Su padre es Hondureño y su madre is Mexicana! Saludos desde Puy Vidal - Carolina :)
Would love to visit one day 😊 Beautiful property 😍
Gorgeous vlog…thank you!

Happy New Year! Chateau de Puy Vidal is beautiful inside and out! So happy you are living your dream!
I've been looking all over for your videos. It no longer appears in my feeds. I'm glad you hearted my comment.

Love watching your videos! You’ve made me want to make the move to Europe. Now to find a chateau of my own. Ha ha
I’m curious about what heating system you have ? I know that old Chateaus can get very cold in winter but your place always looks so warm and inviting
What a wonderful life! Happy New Year to you all.
HAPPY NEW AND PROSPEROUS YEAR!
More videos please! You should consider a daily vlog.
Happy New Year, ladies! Lovely video. The drone footage was beautiful. Thank you
