La Experiencia

I have ongoing gardening work to be done - a large garden some of it is overgrown with ivy and we need to clear this and bring the woods back to life planting new trees. It's an environmentally clean project, I want to avoid herbicides and let nature reseed old ferns and bluebells on a clear woodland floor. I need your help to cut grass with me and a small team. Outdoor work needs Hard working person with energy!

My experience as a volunteer at the host was exceptional. Daragh, the hostess is natural, always made sure I had everything I needed and more, she made me feel like part of the family. The surroundings are magical, with breathtaking views and charming tranquility. The facilities are comfortable and welcoming, making my stay even more enjoyable. Her authenticity and generosity are unmatched, I get to admire her deeply. I will never forget this experience. Thank you Daragh for everything! J&J

Thank You Javier for your super kind feedback.. it was a wonderful experience hosting you. Thank you for arriving with the attitude to help and get "stuck in" no matter what project I asked you to complete. Your honest and open attitude and your work ethic made such a difference.

I'm so glad you got in touch, you saved me from a long month of work and I loved your great sense of humour.
I tried to leave a complete review for you to make sure future hosts know they should definitely engage with you but I think I messed up submitting it Hoping they get to read my response here.
Come back to Barrow anytime... mi casa es SU casa.

My stay at the host was very productive overall. I got along very well with Daragh and collaborated on several creative projects. Daragh was very keen to make sure I was able to eat to my specific diet, provided medicine when feeling unwell and had many interesting and valuable conversations. Additionally I was able to take a holiday abroad whilst leaving my belongings at the host. the host itself is a beautiful and unique location, it is perfect for introverts who might be looking for a rural experience but not necessarily farm work. Also there is a very nice cat named buck, treat him well

Wow -If Marijus applies to be a volunteer at your property do not delay one moment he is the best out there.

Its hard to write a review for someone who has become a great friend. Marijus arrived in October 2023 and left in February 2024. I think this was a superb experience and I enjoyed his company immensely. Calm, measured, unflappable and instantly likeable - easy to please and very low maintenance, he makes virtually no impact on you and very self contained.

Firstly Mariju's arrival is fabulous he integrated so quickly with our small team and adapted swiftly to many changing tasks, he was so kind and gentle with the pet dogs and chickens and looked after them like his own, in fact he rescued a little lost kitten and cared for it so gently.

Marijus is liked by everyone he met. Our family felt like we were losing a son when he sadly decided to move on for study and work.

Not only is Marijus an amazing well read and worldly informed well travelled guy, he is intelligent and super empathetic, he was one of the most genuinely skilled and talented volunteers we have had stay here in over 7 years of hosting.

Marijus has extraordinary building skills and has an intuitive creative finesse which we tapped into and together created one of the most exciting projects we have created to date.

From scratch Marijus designed, specified materials and worked doggedly on several incredible structures built to enhance our property. He retrofitted insulation and wall mortar in a summer garden house making it a cosy dwelling for our volunteers.
Marijus build a 20 foot tall medieval gothic arch door for our wood shed and most elaborate of all he created from scratch one of the most beautiful woodland folly buildings.
"The Chapel" is a wood panelled small garden room with a lantern tower, hand made shingles and exquisite hand carvings throughout. I will never do justice to Marijus' skills .

As a volunteer he was kind and caring and responded so reassuringly to manage the property when I was suddenly taken to hospital with an emergency. My stress levels lowered knowing Marijus was calmly carrying on and taking on a huge daily responsibility while I was in care for 2 weeks .
I will forever be indebted to Marijus for that as I dont know what would have happened if he wasn't in residence..

I could go on and on with examples oj his building and carpentry talent and the quality of his personality and Im sure Im missing loads of details - suffice to say Marijus was incredible, and shared far beyond the effort levels of a normal volunteer.

A piece of paradise in paradise. I enjoyed stay at the host. It is a nice balance of work and play. Most people might mind the changing Irish weather, but it was heaven to me. If you like quite and picturesque, as well as duty, dirty hands in the garden, and straightforward conversations, this place is for you.

You are a delight Kesh, belting out Shirley Bassey songs at the tops of our lungs as we pulled weeds together might not be straightforward to some people... but it felt very normal to you and I. What a lot of fun you are. Thanks for sharing your time with us in Barrow.

I worked on building a chapel. I collaborated with carpentry, electrical and painting work. I'm sure I delivered a great result. I received a private room, inside the hotel. But the shower is inside Daragh's private house. In another location. I see Daragh cooking and holding a dog in his lap as a negative, in the hotel kitchen. I believe you should have a minimum of consideration for other people. She even once bathed her dog in the sink of a hotel kitchen. Billing for work, three times I went to the bathroom or to get water, then she calls, sends a message and comes back looking for you.
