About the host

Hosted by Deborah Middleton

Host profile image
Deborah Middleton is an author of crime novels set in Bermuda. An inveterate globetrotter, she moved to Gourdon-Murat from Mallorca in 2017 having been seduced by the Limousin scenery and warmth of the people. She has spent the past 18 months working with French artisans to lovingly convert the barn into a high-end « gîte » ... while she “camped” in the farmhouse next door!
“I traded in my tennis racquet for a chainsaw and paintbrush!! But I have no regrets! I hope that you will fall in love with the area and have a wonderful stay in the barn”.
