Batworthy

We love meeting new people, cultural exchange, trying new cuisines, and are passionate about trying to live in a more sustainable way. If you would like to experience life in a typical English village in the west country and have some creative input, as well as interesting discussions around the dinner table - get in touch! We have lots of experience with volunteers and are keen to expand our network to include Workpackers

We love living in the country and really enjoy living in this part of the world. At the moment it is just the two of us, Claire who is an art teacher married to James who is a timber frame carpenter/instructor. We are interested meeting new people and cultural exchange and feel it is important to create opportunities for young people to travel and have affordable experiences. We feel very privileged to have a field which is becoming a more complex ecosystem every year and the planned pond will benefit the wildlife too. We try to grow as many vegetables as possible and the poly tunnel is a huge benefit. We have planted many apple trees as well as making new paddocks with different hedgerow varieties.
