We have hosted volunteers for the past 15 years, from a variety of countries. We enjoy meeting new people and appreciate the help in the day-to-day operations of the Guest House, especially in the busier summer months.
Work is straightforward and well organized. Guest check-out is at 11 am and check in time at 3 pm. All cleaning and laundry duties are to be done within this time window. Some days are busy, some are very quiet. There are also a variety of tasks we can give in the garden or in light maintenance around the property.
We can usually host one person at a time, sometimes couples. We cannot accommodate travelers with pets.
We usually prefer to host mature (preferably over 25 years old) and independent helpers.
We usually would host helpers for 3 weeks minimum, but can sometimes be flexible.
We prefer to host travelers and people on vacation rather than digital nomads.
Early birds welcome.
