What a wonderful experience! I have not experienced such peace and quiet since living on a farm when I was just a kid - even the shower brought back memories. Thank you to Cathy for her attentive service and to Jen for sharing Peace of Eden with the public.

We had a 9 day stay at Peace of Eden. Friendly, helpful people around and the children loved the daily pony rides.
It was overall a relaxing experience.

Peace of Eden -
02 May 2007
We had a wonderful time at "Peace of Eden" and were shown great hospitality by Jen and Howard, our lovely, warm hosts. The children were indulged with pony rides and were delighted to run free on the farm's beautiful lawns and hike down to the creek, to catch tadpoles.
