Living the chateau dream

Strawbridge, Dick2025
Large Print
In January 2015 Dick and Angel Strawbridge embarked on the journey of a lifetime when they swapped their cosy two-bedroom flat in East London for a derelict chateau with 12 acres of land in the Loire valley. From throwing open the shutters to new suites to exploring the walled garden, launching their wedding business and hosting guests for food-lover weekends, no stone was left unturned. From the day-to-day tasks like installing a lift, to the beginnings of lifelong traditions and memories such as having a family sleepover on the moat, this much-anticipated follow-up includes many firsts for the Strawbridge family. As Dick and Angel recount stories of the renovations that took place over the next four years at the chateau, we start to understand the true extent of the work and skill that it has taken to make this incredible house into a much-loved home.
