Kurrebo Hostel, Café & Plantschool

It is one of the most beautiful places in south Sweden with an extraordinary lake at the edge of our property. It is a perfect balance between simple comfort and outdoor life in nature. A good place to contemplate, enjoy the peace maybe take a bike ride or have a swim, go for a hike or simply enjoy the view :) You can of course also spent time with other volunteers, play games in the evening or enjoy meals together.

We are a large group of friends that are open minded with the intention to create a place were you can be yourself, in the perfect balance between work and leisure time. We strive to enjoy life fully – open for new, work hard, laugh loud, cry if you need, love with all you have, be free. You will share all the spaces, we will show you around, always available and happy to help and then it is up to you what you make out of it.

From the very beginning, I felt so warmly welcomed by Lia and the team. I quickly became comfortable being part of the daily life there. I really enjoyed helping both in the garden and in the café, and it was lovely to see how well the whole team works together. It was a wonderful first volunteering experience, and I'm really grateful for the time I spent there. Definitely a place I would recommend — and one I would happily come back to one day! 🌿🌸

I loved my time at the host. It is such a beautiful place, surrounded by lots of nature and of course a very cold lake haha :) Everyone was very nice and welcoming and the working hours were exactly as proposed. I got a really cool insight into how the café works behind the scenes, which was a great experience. I was there at the end of August, but I imagine it would be even nicer in July because of the warmer weather. We had quite a few rainy days during my stay.

Sorry I missed the review window! We were very grateful for Iris' help! She supported us in the kitchen with preparation and cleaning tasks as well as in the bed & breakfast. She liked to learn about cooking and baking and she is very easy going. Thank you so much again Iris!

I had a great time volunteering at the host! It's such a beautiful place in the middle of swedish nature, directly at the lake. The working environment is really good, the staff members are very friendly and helpful. The tasks are mainly helping with dishwashing, cleaning, housekeeping and some tasks in the kitchen like chopping vegetables. The working hours are always respected. It is great to connect with the other volunteers and do things together like going swimming in the lake, taking the bikes to cute cafés or watching movies together :)

I spent two wonderful weeks in Urshult. Everyone was super nice all the time, they watched out for our well-being and adapted to our requests (including vegan options) and recommended amazing places nearby the café.
The work hours were respected and fun do to, they always asked if i'm okay with the tasks given and told me my free days in advance on the first day of my stay.
The room I stayed in was clean, beautiful and i had plenty of space and time to myself!
I can absolutely recommend the host for everyone who's interested in rural Sweden, nature and meeting a super awesome team there! :)

This experience was amazing! Everyone at the facility is kind, caring and respectful. The tasks mostly include kitchen work, housekeeping and cleaning, but the staff always consider your preferences and strengths when assigning tasks. Everything is clearly explained and you can always ask questions. The team shares delicious vegetarian/vegan lunch and dinner together. It was also great to meet other volunteers and spend time in staff facilities, which are cute and well-equipped. The rural setting is peaceful with beautiful nature and a lake nearby. I definitely recommend it!
