"We’ve spent many happy hours in the summerhouse which is a wonderful retreat on its own. We’ve loved our walks in the fields with Jess and Meg (following their directions of course!)"
Christine and John (June 2011)
"The saddest part is when its time to go home – but we know we’ll be back next year. "
Tim and Victoria (May 2011)
"Couldn’t do without our annual Boscrowan ‘fix’ – we’ll be back next year "
Elizabeth and Mike (May 2011)
"We both lead fast and stressful lives back in Scotland and we have come to view Boscrowan as our sanctuary. We are looking for an opportunity to wind down, rest and relax and this lovely
place provides us with the opportunity to do just that. Above all we enjoyed returning from our travels to Peace and Plenty. The name says it all – ‘peaceful’ and
‘plenty of it’. Liz, David, Meg and Jess are marvellous hosts – they have thought of everything – from the doggy greetings every day, to the cotton buds and matches!"
Mary and May, Scotland, May 2011
"We have had a fantastic time yet again! I really enjoyed going for walks with Jess and Meg in the fields and thank you to the chickens for supplying our breakfasts! We have been to lots
of beautiful beaches due to the gorgeous weather, Sam and I have been to surf school. Thank you for such a lovely stay."
Kate (12) Sam (16) and our Mum and Dad, Derby (April 2011)
"Thank you for such an amazing home from home holiday – your thoughtfulness and attention to detail makes such a difference. "
Caroline and Andy (April 2011)
"What a treat it is to come back to this wonderful place and escape for a while. A pleasure to sit in the gardens, summerhouse and orchard. We’ve walked round the fields and wandered
around the pond – all this and the rest of Cornwall to explore! We appreciate so much the beautiful fresh flowers all around the cottage and the yummy scones. No wonder people return
year after year. Each time we come there are new things to see. See you at the other end of the summer....."
Janet and Dave, Bolton (April 2011)
"Ring and Thimble never disappoints (our visits now in double figures) See you end of June."
Glenys and Phil (April 2011)
"Wonderful stay in Ring and Thimble – we usually stay in Peace and Plenty but this time had an opportunity to be here on my own. Fabulous place for a single lady – luxury
accommodation, masses of wonderful gardens and galleries in close proximity"
Sue (March 2011)
"Short but so sweet. Lovely 3 night break to celebrate special anniversary. Enjoyed lazy mornings with papers (a rare treat), cooked breakfasts in aga – a must!"
Mark and Debs (Feb 2011)
"This was year 10 of our staying at Boscrowan and the magic of Peace and Plenty does not wear off. Spending Christmas and New Year at this 'one of a kind' holiday home is what we
always look forward to with great anticipation."
Maria and Nugent, London (Jan 2011)
"Thank you for the generous soft furnishing teaching – highly inspired to make our home more like here!"
Tom and Lou (Oct 2010)
"Our second stay in Peace and Plenty and (excuse the bad grammar) even more perfect! The homely touches and attention to detail contine to be astounding. We have enjoyed
re–visiting old haunts, but also discovering new treasures. We’ve also loved spending time in the summerhouse, the garden, the wildlife pond and being taken
for walks by Jess and Meg."
John and Christine (Peace and Plenty, September 2010)
"Fourth visit, first time in September though. Whatever the time of year this place would be very hard to beat. Thanks again fo another great holiday."
Alan and Lesley (Ring and Thimble, September 2010)
"Our first stay at Peace and Plenty and we are already planning our return! We have collected and scrambled Boscrowan eggs, sampled the apples and plums (delicious),
made beds of freshly picked rocket for our scallops, stroked the cats, made friends with Jess and Meg etc! Thank you from us All."
The Fitzgerald family (Peace and Plenty, August 2010)
"Thank you for a fabulous week! The cottage was everyhting we hoped for and more. We have never spent so much time ‘at home’ during our holidays until
this week at Boscrowan."
Remco and Audrey (Ring and Thimble, August 2010)
"We enjoyed the ‘aga experience’ and were delighted by the idea of falling asleep in that most comfortable bed."
Hans and Anne, Germany (Ring and Thimble, July 2010)
"We thank you once again and already look forward to our return in November (have looked back, think it’s our 9th visit!)"
Glenys and Phil (Ring and Thimble, July 2010)
"...just relaxing on the lawn by the cottage at the end of the day was perfect. You will be joined by the dogs, cats and chickens which never failed to put a smile on our faces."

The Price family (Peace and Plenty, April 2010)
"Can't remember the date – which is the very wonderful thing about Cornwall in general and Boscrowan in particular – it enables the complete suspension of
reality, to open the mind to the magic of this beautiful place. We loved it here – from the welcoming committee’s daily biscuit ritual (Meg, Jess, Milly and Molly)
to the pasties and the snuggly cottage. We’ll be back!"
Elizabeth and Mike (Ring and Thimble, 2010)
"From the moment we walked in it felt like home. Never have we settled into a holiday so quickly and peacefully."
Nick and Fran (Ring and Thimble, October 2009)
"Unlike so many others, this was our first time at Boscrowan, but it won’t be our last. The cottage exceeded our expectations − and our
expectations were high! As if the cottage wasn’t enough Boscrowan itself is wonderful."
Howard and Christine (April 2009)
"Cream tea on arrival and flowers everywhere! And the friendliest welcome from Jess and Meg − p.s. they love bacon!"
Andrew and Emma (March 2009)

your life and soul into this place and it’s wonderful"
Mark, Louisa, Imogen and Rowan (February 2009)
"When we first booked Peace and Plenty in 2001 we certainly did not know how much we would come to love and treasure it. We simply could not imagine the
festive season without this wonderful holiday home in our beloved Cornwall"
Maria and Nugent (Christmas & New Year 2008/09)
"A truly outstanding holiday. Every detail from the beautiful curtains to the delicious homemade scones(not to mention the joys of an aga) has made our stay
at Boscrowan romantic, relaxing and unforgettable. Ring and Thimble is simply beautiful − thank you!"
Harriet and Michael, Saffron Walden (November 2008)
"Well we’re back again for the third year running, you see you just can’t help yourself can you! Ring and Thimble as I said on my very first visit
is ’exquisite bliss’. Of all the holidays that I have had this is the one and only place that I truly love and always want to come back to."
Victoria and Tim Nielsen, Surrey (September 2008)
"We could hardly believe anyone had lived in the cottage before us, so clean and perfect it was. We both agree this is our ’dream cottage’. We so
loved the colours and soft furnishings that we are heading back home with our new Farrow and Ball paint chart, fabric samples and inspirational ideas to transfuse
some of Ring and Thimble into our own home!"
May and Mark. Ayrshire (September 2008)
"My alarm clock was the sound of horses hooves along the path followed by the smell of fresh bread (Panasonic the best!)"

Beautiful touches throughout."
Julie and Steve Bohannon (Oct 2007)
"A wonderful cottage situated at the heart of a wonderful holiday area"
Graham and Pam Haines (July 2007)

we get on growing our own lettuce leaves in a wheelbarrow − inspired by yours!"
