Travel + Leisure Editorial Guidelines Updated on January 31, 2023 Share Tweet Pin Email Photo: Courtesy of Respective Travel Advisor This British Isles expert, who has been planning across-the-pond trips for nearly 30 years, specializes in unusual experiences, like dining at 16th-century Middle Temple Hall, in London, and learning from blacksmiths and falconers in the Cotswolds. LeCompte can leverage her connections to set up private atelier visits and chef-led market tours in London — then whisk you into the countryside for a garden-focused jaunt around Sussex or a lesson in sheepdog herding in the Cotswolds. Recent experiences LeCompte has planned for clients include an after-hours private visit with curators of the Cabinet War Rooms and personal meetings with the directors of the Churchill Archives and the National Army Museum. Top it off with a stay at one of England's most luxurious properties, like London's Mayfair Townhouse.
