Frédérique and her husband Joël are searching for a new home with the help of real estate agent Stéphane Pizza. The couple has been living with their son Francis for a year and a half, but Francis has had enough and kicked them out. Frédérique and Joël are quite eccentric and have a tendency to be brutally honest, which makes the house hunt challenging for Stéphane. After visiting several properties, including a small apartment and a villa, the couple is unimpressed. However, when Stéphane shows them a castle from the Age of Enlightenment, they seem to be interested, but not in the castle itself. Instead, they fall in love with a camper van parked outside the castle. The couple decides to buy the castle just so they can own the camper van, which they plan to live in while using the castle for its toilets.
