It’s called ‘Jasper Peony’ by the British wallpaper manufacturer Lewis and Wood. I love it too!
Bonne Maman bathroom
I am not a fan of wallpapered bathrooms. This was also done before she was spending other people's money for bathroom wallpaper? I doubt Lalande has proper bathroom ventilation. Who thinks the kidney shaped, ugly fabric draped vanity table with feathers is necessary? Have they ever hung a real mirror over the sink? Wallpaper on the right, tasteful, wallpaper on the left sad... Ok, I need to stop.

I’m sure I remember it being sold in a supermarket or somewhere like that when I was younger.
Yes real mirror over the lavabo. And another one on the wall. I don't like both, the mirror on the wall is

Gutted that I can't afford it yet but this IS my dream Chateau. It's going to auction, with NO RESERVE.
The previous owners bought for 600,000 and spent in the region of 6 million on it...absolute bargain for someone.

You’ve missed an important color group for any chateau- the 3G aka gold gilding group. For every wall, chair, picture frame, candlestick, lamp, wardrobe, table, and everything that the royalty sees or sits on must have that “touch of gold”.
Full disclosure - I really like the gold wax rub I saw on one of the episodes and would totally use that if it worked on anything in my house
Nice but I wouldn't buy it. Once again, the owners call Loire Valley what is not Loire Valley. Beisdes it is "neo-classic" meaning it was built or renovated in late 19e century.Gutted that I can't afford it yet but this IS my dream Chateau. It's going to auction, with NO RESERVE.

It is located in Haut-Anjou, near Segré. Almost Brittany !
That's how all these british chateaux owners try to present and sell their assets.
"Located in the Haut-Anjou, near Segré and at 45min from Angers, historical capital city of Anjou.
As great lovers of art, history and architecture, it is our sincere pleasure to welcome you to Chateau de Falloux. Here in the beautiful landscape of the Loire Valley where the royalty of France chose to build the most exquisite French castles (Chateaux), we hope to give these extraordinary places a role for the future of our not only French culture, but for the culture of the world.
David & William O'Neil, owners"
That doesn't matter to me. I have read the complete history of it, and it's architect. I think it's beautiful. The current owners were all over the newspapers internationally when they fell out of love with the chateau, and why. Wind turbine issues.
Ha! There was actually a colour very popular in Marie Antoinette's time called Caca du Dauphin, referencing the contents of the said Dauphin's nappy. Perhaps perfect for Lalalande .
Thank you. SJ is short. Does this mean Davy needs to be on his knees when brushing his teeth?Yes real mirror over the lavabo. And another one on the wall. I don't like both, the mirror on the wall is

Perhaps not to brush his teeth but he would have to bow down passing the bathroom door. You can see Ian who is shorter than Davy do this at 15:45 ff in the video. Screenshot doesn't really show it, you must watch the vlog there you can see how he has to bow.
I don't need a mirror to brush my teeth, find them without looking
but if Davy has to use a mirror, the other one, on the wall, would be more appropriate.
How about Marie's Cooking Beige and Pork Turds Umber for your Festival of Faeces range?How could I forget sling on the bling?

This might be misunderstood. It's not like this:
The dentist asks his patient:"What do your teeth do at night?"
Patient:"I don't know, we sleep apart."
I find my teeth in my mouth without looking in the mirror.
I guess SJ "mirrors" (!) her own needs when she furnishes a room. I suspect she frequently looks at herself in mirrors so that is what she would like if she were a guest. No doubt, for some less fathomable reason, she also feels the need to have lurid pink things (wall lights?) on the wall and some ostrich feathers in a vase! There's no accounting for taste (or lack of it).

Thought so ... That's happening all over France and that's why there are so many châteaux for sale ...
Why is the mirror so low? SJ is short and it is her height but Davy would have to lean down to use it.Yes real mirror over the lavabo. And another one on the wall. I don't like both, the mirror on the wall is
She looked somewhat stressed in that frame, maybe because she had some work clothes on so had had to lift a little finger and actually do something for a change but probably not for long!I don't need a mirror to brush my teeth, find them without looking
The Davy situation is getting weirder by the day.
EDIT : They are not British but American (from California). Their architect is Scottish and they work with 60+ local tradesmen companies.
Hat off.
According to the newspapers shared in their website, the local mayor and council had voted against this wind turbines project but changed their mind recently.
