Chateaux: Unique ways to finance them in France - a podcast by Oliver Gee

C is for Chateaux - of which there are 45,000 in France. I've always been quite fascinated by French castles, and this episode takes a closer look at how they're financed. 

We all know they're expensive to buy and to run, so I looked into some exciting modern ways people are making French chateaux work.

Featured is the voice of Emily Jane Boeuf, the communications head of Dartagnans, a startup that uses crowdfunding to buy and preserve French castles. 

Later in the episode is Australian Jane Webster, who runs the Chateau de Bosgouet in Normandy. 

Her website is here and Instagram here.
