This poem I wrote for you in June 2009 - I am sending it to you with all my love xxx
Christine - Thank you for being you,
A special person through and through.
You take the time to understand,
To hold me gently in your hand.
When times are tough we all need help.
I know you're there and really care,
To nurture guide and move me on,
To a place of safety where I'm strong.
To understand where I am now.
To take small steps I know just how.
Without your help and guidance true,
I don't know how I'd move on through.
So do not change, be always you.
A special friend and mentor who -
Takes the time to share the light,
So I am able to grasp the fight.
As time moves on the struggle ceases.
Your strength and wisdom now increases.
When I describe just who you are,
The light goes on as from afar.
A star shines bright in the heavens above,
But reaches down with all it's love.
An earthly angel in our midst.
Spreading wings with wisdom kissed.
Lesley

29th November 2005 - \well where do I start! I wasn't to sure what to expect from this break, but I soon found the hospitality to be second to none. Thanks to Pete I have managed to put on a few pounds, the food was superb, no need to venture out as everything is just here. Christine has totally destressed me as now I feel like a new women, the Reiki was an eye opening experience both mentally & spiritually but definately worth having done.

29th November 2005 - We've all had a fantastic time, eaten to much georgeous food and now feel totally relaxed and rejuvinated from the fab treatments! Thank you very much for looking after us so well. Niki
29th November 2005 - Dear Peter & Christine, Shambala is really heaven on earth. We arrived four frazzled friends and leave new women after four days of blissful pampering. Don't be fooled by petite Christine...she delivers a firm massage! The food is fabulous, homemade bread and pastries for breakfast with fresh fruit salad & freshly squeezed fruit juices. What could be better! Dinner is something to behold to with exquisite dishes made from scratch from the tastiest local ingredients, real gourmet food but beware the portions are huge! Make sure you leave room for all the courses or you will regret it! Most days Peter discussed what our preferences were for dinner over breakfast, what a man! My personal favourite was the tagliatelle withi mushrooms followed by panfried Salmon on a bed of courgettes in a sauce with tomatoes, prawns & other scrummy things. In between eating for England you would find me having some of the best Spa treatments I've ever had. My problem skin has never felt so good thanks to Christine. While we loved cosy nights by the fire watching videos and sampling the wines we can't wait to retun in the late summer to take advantage of the pool. Kathy
12th October 2005 - Having known Christine & Peter for many years I pretty much know what to expect, but there's no denying that Peter's cuisine is a revalation! Eleven out of ten to you both tor a fantastic fortnight. My partner Sandie goes home totally relaxed and rejuvinated having arrived wound up like a coiled spring. We shall return! Graham write & Sandie Mcqueen.
5th December 2005 - My third visit as always too short but I had to experience Shambala winter style too! Fabulous superb foood (as ever), treatments (ditto) plus log fires and being made to feel such a special guest. I witnessed the arrival of the first of the livestock and look forward to enjoying their produce when I return in June! I thought nothing could better Shambala in the summer, this comes very close! Shirley (Hertford )
15th September 2005 - Dear Christine & Peter, thank you for a really wonderful experience, we arrived stressed and tired & left relaxed & chilled.

12th September 2005 - Dear Chrisitne & Peter. We saw your website and felt Shambala sould be the perfect place for our honeymoon week, and it has been. We were looking forward to some relaxation and found it here. You have thought out everything so well, and the house is in such a beautiful spot. I just wish we had had another week to enjoy all that you have on offer. To have Peter's wonderful cooking has been a great bonus especially after treatments as we did not have to go driving about afterwards and got to enjoy some of your garden fruit & veg. Thank you very much Christine for your morning meditaion, your fantastic skills, and kind advice for someone starting out on the healing road. It was great to try out things I'd never had before, the hot stone therapy particularly was an amazing experience. Wendy & Cazz (London)

9 September 2005 - Kate quite dreaded this trip into unknown territory!! Once having met Christine & Peter & seen Shambala her fears were gone.

21st June 2005 - If you don't like peace, calm, relaxation, good food, wine and excellent hospitality then don't come to Shambala. If unravelling the knots from your spine and blowing the cobwebs from your brain is what you need- then hand yourselves over to Peter & Christine for a few days - they are masters of their trade and Shambala is a really special place. This is my second visit ant it felt like coming home - Can't wait for the next time. Karen Sidebottom (Wigan) 21st June 2005 - Shambala - the perfect place to detoxify and then re-toxify!

28 July 2004 - Shambala retreat has been a holiday experience with a difference and one that we are glad we did not miss. The 3 days that we have spent here have not been long enough.

Shambala has been a lovely place to be. Shambala is a perfect place to relax and unwind in a friendly warm and positive envirorment with fantastic and beautiful veiws. Thank you Chrisitne and Peter for your warm hospitality. Ian & Sarah (Preston)
July 2004 - Christine & Peter have helped me greatly on my house hunting trip. They have been very considerate and trusted me with many of their friends who have also been way supportive. I can consider myself ' lucky' to have found such lovely people in a fantastic place. Shambala is a unique project which will go from strength to strength. Peter & Christine have a very clear vision & understanding of what it takes to create a 'paradise' I have also learnt a lot about focus and determination from their experiences. They have made great strides in a short space of time. Good luck with the venture, you have created a positive energy which all the guests will benefit from. Finally, all the little things, and attention to detail make a big difference. 10 out or 10 for the chill factor. Paul Jones (London)
