    As entertaining, warm and irresistible as ever, Join Dick and Angel on their remarkable journey to find their family's forever home.

    Author Biography

    Born in Burma, but raised and educated in Northern Ireland, Dick Strawbridge retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in 2001 before becoming a full-time television presenter and author (with arguably the best moustache in showbusiness). Angel Strawbridge is a 1940s vintage-clad redhead from East London. She is the founder of The Vintage Patisserie, a glamorous hospitality company, and author of the bestselling Vintage Tea Party series.

    Dick and Angel met and fell in love in 2010. In 2015 they bought a derelict château in the Pays de la Loire and became the subjects of the hugely popular Channel 4 hit Escape to the Château. In 2020 they published their first book together, A Year at the Château, and then the following year they released the follow-up, Living the Château Dream. Both became instant Sunday Times bestsellers on publication.
