Problem, Meet Solution! Storage and Wall Update | Manor & Maker

Описание: Living in a French chateau comes with a mix of practical projects and unexpected challenges.
In today’s episode, we start by working on a storage solution for the top floor, helping us make better use of the space as part of our ongoing chateau renovation.

We then share an update on the wall that recently collapsed, Making it safer for everyone and getting an understanding of the huge task ahead.

Finally, we take a look at the flooding in our village, showing the effects on the surrounding area and reflecting on what it means to live in the French countryside and be part of a local community.

Thank you for following our journey of restoring and living in a French chateau.

Welcome to Château de Saint-Germain-des-Prés, our 500-year-old home in Southwest France's Dordogne region.

We're Sara & Stephen, creative retreat hosts building a life where creativity shows up in everything we do. He's an artist, and we both believe everyone is more creative than they think.

What We Share:
This is our take on château life: hosting art retreats and creative workshops, watching transformations unfold, learning restoration and interior design as we make spaces beautiful for our guests, embracing slow living in rural France, and discovering that creativity isn't about being an artist. It's about finding joy in how you approach everything.

You'll See:
Behind the scenes of our retreat experiences, the real work of creating magical moments, our learning curve with this 500-year-old building, authentic French culture as we live it, and what happens when people discover their own creativity in Southwest France.

Whether you're curious about château life, drawn to creative exploration, dreaming of France, or just love watching people build something meaningful, welcome to our community.

The perfect pairing of creative journeys and bespoke château experiences.
