Inside the Château: We Asked Viewers To Prove They’re Real
This week we found ourselves under the tree, in the heat, with a film crew due to arrive, a drinks party to host, a podcast to record, and the familiar realisation that we only seem to function when a deadline is breathing down our necks.Somehow that led us from château chaos to airport panic, from Lionel’s hatred of last-minute travel stress to Claire being accused of smuggling “ancient artefacts” out of Morocco. There’s also Margot interrupting the outdoor studio, marathon runners being sent round the most annoying path in France, the robo mower finally entering the conversation, and a rather lovely thought about all of you watching us from wherever you are.So this week we have a request: send us a photo of yourselves watching Our Château Life. We see numbers on a screen, but it would be wonderful to see the actual people behind them. Unless, of course, you really are monsters. Nice monsters, obviously.Lionel & Claire xxx

Inside the Château: From Twits to Roadblocks
This week on our podcast inside the château, we’re talking about online “twits,” perspective, and one very unexpected Sunday morning in rural France. <br /><br />After a lovely community event at the château, the weekend took a turn when a closed road, some raised voices, and a very French misunderstanding made a simple trip to the shop far more dramatic than expected. It’s one of those moments that could only happen in everyday château life. We also reflect on how to deal with unkind comments, the small kindnesses that mean so much, and the strange, funny, frustrating realities of living in the French countryside. Thank you for joining us in the château for another conversation.<br /><br />We’re very glad you’re here.<br /><br />Lionel & Claire xxx

Inside the Château: A Small Decision With Big Consequences
A colour decision shouldn’t feel this big… and yet somehow it really does.In this episode of Inside the Château, we talk about finally choosing the colour for the gates, shutters, windows and doors — one of the first truly visible decisions that feels like our mark on the château. It’s a subtle choice, but one that says so much about how we want this house to feel.We also catch up on life at the château in the summer heat: picking cherries, making cherry vodka, cutting secret paths through the long grass, and enjoying the garden with the dogs and cats. Along the way, we drift into the realities of renovation, the things we miss about the UK, the quirks of French life, and why progress on a project like this rarely happens as quickly as people imagine.This is a quieter, more conversational episode, but full of the small details that make château life what it is.
