In this episode of "Our Chateau Life," we invite you to get to know us better as the owners of the enchanting Château de La Vergne in the beautiful Vendée region of France. We’re thrilled to share some of our favorite aspects of chateau living, from the serene peace and quiet of the French countryside to a closer look at our thriving vegetable patch. As we continue our chateau restoration journey, we explore the delightful cultural differences between the French and the British, such as the beloved tradition of two-hour lunches that embody relaxation and community in our daily lives.

As part of our ongoing series, we introduce you to Fred, our cherished classic Mini, which brings a touch of British nostalgia to our French chateau adventures. You'll also get an exclusive sneak peek into our private chapel, a hidden gem within the chateau that holds deep historical and personal significance for us.

This episode continues our grand chateau tour, where we explore more of the unique and captivating spaces that make this historic property so special. From the charming details of each room to the grandeur of the estate, we aim to bring you closer to the heart of our home.

And, of course, we couldn’t forget to showcase our treasured banana plant, a tropical touch that adds a unique flair to our otherwise quintessentially French surroundings. Join us as we blend cultures, traditions, and personal stories in this captivating journey through chateau life.
