What our Clients say
“Some villages take part in the program year after year. It wasn’t difficult to see why small
English towns get a lot of repeat business. The program has particular appeal for solo
travellers, providing companions and ‘guides’ without the rigidity of commercial tours and
with no extra charge for single accommodation. Everyone in the parish bent over
backwards to make the visit as comfortable and flexible as possible”

“This trip was so much beyond our wildest dreams that it would be hard to improve on it”
Eleanor Vissering, Ottawa
“A very good week! We have had nothing but good experiences with the Parish Holidays.
Mary has been to two: her first was in Cornwall, then we went together to Kent and to
Dobcross near Manchester. We were so well received by all the communities... and this
time we have been just plain down-home comfortable in Winchester. What a way to
explore an area!
James L Reitz, Pittsburgh
“They say the English are reserved - not so the ones we met, they opened their homes and
their hearts to us in the most wonderful vacation of a lifetime”
Janey Johnson, Kansas
“Our visit so far exceeded our expectations, was so perfectly wonderful, that I can’t find
words to express our delight”
Karyl & Bob Bannister, Maine
“The food, the visits, the theatres were all out of this world - we were all full of admiration for the planning and efficiency of everyone in the parish team - we just lived like kings while we were with them”
Jane Neuberger, Atlanta
“I think I’ve found a second home, my week was so wonderful!”

“Parish Holidays has been a loving caring experience which I will always treasure”
Helene Wilson, San Diego
“Every day was an adventure which brought happiness and pleasure. It was all beautifully
conceived. It was a real privilege to have been in this charming delightful village.”
Anna Royer
“These Parish Holidays have just the right balance of sightseeing, shopping, resting between events, and visiting and dining. This concept of vacationing proves to be a most desirable way of seeing different areas of the beautiful countryside, while at the same time truly getting to know the people and their customs”
Shirley Jones, Alvin, Texas
