• A beautifully restored stone barn in a spectacular setting in the french countryside to spend a week or a month!

• Leslee, your transformation has been followed with great interest, from the rough stages attention to detail - in the kitchen and bath, and surrounding the generous hearth. And the view - more inspiration!

• Your kitchen is a dream to cook in! What a great renovation. We had so much fun when we were all chopping, sipping wine and laughing together. It was a very special reunion.

• The house is amazing. Large, open, full of air and light. Waking up each morning and opening the shutters to the incredible views will stand out in my memory for a long time.

• This was a very special experience. I would and will recommend it to anyone who asks.
  

• I liked the fact that there was plenty of space for privacy, yet large communal areas for socializing. It worked really well as a rental for two couples traveling together.

• The spaces were really majestic without being overwhelming. A really wonderful renovation with soul. Looking forward to a return.

• From the moment we arrived at La Grange, the artfully renovated French stone barn, there was magic in the air. We felt a warm welcome just walking into the house. Taking in the expansive view and scents of the oudtoors. I felt my painter's eye awakening.

• SEDATE, SPACIOUS, SOPHISTICATED
  Tastefully restored by an American graphic designer, the kitchen incorporates the original "mangeoires" and is a brilliant mix of antique furniture and top of the line stainless steel appliances.
  The big stone fireplace is an invitation to settle in and open the "reserve des Czars" from Chateau Eugenie in the Lot, after a day, for example, in Rocammadour, a splendid ancient sacred site seen best in morning light, if not seen illuminated in the early evening.
  All of which is really best off season! Which is now!

• Our two evenings of stay at Leslee's Barn on the Lot/Dordogne border were a very relaxing and calming experience. As architects we also appreciated the aesthetic quality of the restoration she had done. Watching the sunset as we sat on the terrace and sipped our, wine with the rolling landscape around to look at, was really idyllic. Taking walks, going into the village, trips to nearby sights were all great. We hope to return for a longer stay with family.

• I stayed at the Barn in the Dordogne last year. On arrival, the lunch table was laid on the terrace - local cheeses and meats, crusty, baguettes and colourful salads - and I thought it had to be one of the prettiest spots on earth. Inside the house things got even better, and the romance of this place has to be seen to be believed.
  As you go upstairs to bed in your cosy loft room. you have a spectacular view of the hills.The bathrooms are unique and light, but it is the living spaces that are truly spectacular.
  There is no skimping on space and, where other rooms could have been created to sleep more people, the owner has instead kept the length and height.
  The feel of the big barn in the Dordogne with its huge fireplace remains entirely in tact. A kitchen / dining room is the ultimate farmhouse kitchen opening out on to the terrace with its wonderful sunset views.
  It is clear that this place has been renovated by a designer who loves it. It is infused with her knowledge, respect and passion. I highly recommend it.
