Domaine Lescure Retreats

We are Thomas van Praag and Véronique Van Hoye, a Dutch entrepreneur and a Belgian-born lover of all things beautiful. We’re a creative couple whose adventure to restore an abandoned estate in France has turned into a journey of spiritual and personal growth.
We guide people home to Self by integrating the healing power of IFS, nature and beauty.

We help people find their way home to Self through Internal Family Systems, nature & beauty, on an estate we are lovingly restoring, wabi sabi style.

Moving the heavy oak kitchen table Thomas built hi Moving the heavy oak kitchen table Thomas built himself from a tree he found in the woods. This table is the heart of so many meals, conversations, and special moments. Making this table was a journey in itself, it was Thomas' final project when he was training as a Forest Bathing guide. If you're curious, I wrote about it in a blog.
