A Weekend for Women

for the third year
September 10th - 14th, 2008

At beautiful Boswedden House, Healing and Retreat Centre at Cape Cornwall near St Just in West Cornwall

Dywes yn Kernow - the Goddess in Cornwall

PROGRAMME 2008

Goddess in Cornwall has had a very successful Event for the past two years in 2006 & 2007. On both occasions the sun shone, lots of lovely women came, and there was a feast of activities, therapies and ceremonies from which to choose. So we are going to do it all again this year! We can't guarantee the sun, but we can guarantee plenty of good Goddess-focussed events in a wonderful private and exclusive setting near to the sea in Cornwall. Boswedden House stands in its own grounds, with beautiful views out to sea and over the moors, well-appointed rooms, a secluded area for camping, and an indoor heated swimming pool for exclusive use of GiC guests. Last year the House filled up quickly, so book now to ensure your place at this year's Event.
