Castle Impossible

I was shocked to see all the negative comments about the history of the castle being destroyed. If Daphne and Ian did nothing to the castle, the place would definitely fall into disrepair and be lost!

Some of the rotting areas of the castle are being discovered during the massive room to room restoration project. They also are doing a great job using historic items while gently updating this massive castle!

They even have a big shed of old antiques which are being used in each episodes. I'm also impressed that they are doing most of the work on their own! How many young couples do you know who are that resourceful and use the items they have instead of buying new things. When they do make purchases, they use furniture which fits the theme of the castle!

I've seen all of the episodes so far and look forward to seeing more renovations in future episodes!

I love, love, love this show! Daphne and Ian are so likable. The show leaves you in awe with how massive this chateau is. I fell in love with Welcome to the Chateau and hubby and I are as well with this adventure. Each episode has a dramatic ending with beautifully done renovations. The ups and downs of owning a chateau really pits it into perspective how emotionally strong you need to be to own one of these massive castles. Looking forward to that big chandelier in the staircase some day. Really, how can anyone review this anything less than a 7 on IMdb? Really do hope for a season two. Fingers crossed!

I'm enjoying this journey with Daphne & Ian while they renovate their castle in France. After inheriting this castle and all of the other buildings and land they decide to keep the castle - if they can. Daphne spent her childhood summers visiting her grandfather and grandmother near Paris. She wants to honor her grandparents by keeping their vision alive. There are a lot of challenges and costs. If they can finish this castle and grounds it will make a fabulous venue for parties and weddings. Daphne and Ian seem to be a caring and loving couple. This is their future and I sincerely wish them well.

I like watching 2 normal people and their struggles to keep the castle going. The castle is beautiful and I like following their journey. They are trying to get as much done that is within their budget (just like a normal person does). The issues they run into are normal - not made up drama. They come across as very real and relatable. I can't wait to see how it all turns out. Hoping there is a season 2 and more - there is still a lot to get done. I'm sure once they are done, they can go back and add the things they wish they could have when they have more money. Please let there be a season 2 and more.

My husband, and myself, hit on this show accidently and are so glad we did. This young couple pour their heart and soul into the renovation of an inherited, 500 year old castle, and do it with flying colors. They compromise, they talk things through, they dont play the blame game. We were actually proud of them, as if they were our own children. I got teary-eyed with them. If a married couple can make it through a renovation, they can make it through anything. 41 years of marriage and too many renovations to count. But still here to talk about each one. Great series. Keep it coming. Merci Beaucoup.
