Season 1
Peggy and her younger twin siblings, Mike and Nora, are living with a harsh aunt and uncle after their parents are thought to have been killed in a plane crash. In this first adventure, aided by Jack (a local orphan boy), they run away to live on a deserted island on a nearby lake. They build a house made with the branches of a willow tree, and bring a cow and some chickens across, to provide milk and eggs. They adapt well to life on the island. However, some day-trippers visit and nearly discover them. The local police are also still looking for them and Jack is almost caught when he goes ashore to sell produce at a local market.
Season 2
The children, reunited with their parents again (and Jack now adopted as part of the family), go on holiday at the rugged Cornish coast with a family friend, Miss Dimity, and get drawn into a kidnapping case as they discover a boy being held prisoner in a castle tower nearby.
Season 3
Prince Paul, still attending the same boarding school as Jack and Mike, invites his four friends to his palace in Baronia for the holidays; but it is so hot there in the roasting summer that the entire royal household adjourns to their castle up in the mountains. Bands of robbers are marauding the countryside, terrorising the local people with their savagery, and Paul is incensed, and determined to find the robbers and have them detained – and, together with his friends, sets out to do this.
