I stayed at the guest house for 2 months and it was fab. It took me a week to settle in since the country side is different than the city life I was used to. The location is stunning, the animals/pets are cute and you have the feeling you can relief yourself from all the stress you have in life. As others said, the place is remote therefore I spent my time mostly around the property but thats not bad at all. Having a walk along the beach or eating something at the golf club with a stunning view is pretty fun. You can really learn something about yourself and you will acquire a lot of new skills.

My experience at the guest house was beyond amazing, I truly couldn't have asked for a better volunteer experience. Daragh is a wonderful person, she's dedicated, intelligent and soooo cool, I could listen to her stories forever. Every task I work on was different which kept things interesting and helped me grow in many different ways. The place where you'll stay is absolutely beautiful, there are stunning walks that you can take in the area and even though is far from the city, it never feels isolated because the house itself is comfortable and welcoming. You'll have everything you need :)))

My stay at the guest house was short due to personal reasons, but I had a good time there, learning many new things, even about myself. Daragh is a high-energy person who is always on the move and thinking fast, always trying to make the most of her time, We had good conversations and she gave me supoort when i need it, wich i aprpreciate too much. My activities included helping with gardening, painting some parts of the house and cooking. I didn't find it to be hard work. I liked this experience. House is far to other towns but there is amazing landscapes you can expore.

I had an amazing time at the guest house! The team is lovely and we had a lot of fun. Lots of hard work!! If you are good with that, you will have an amazing time and you will learn a lot about what it means to work in a small hotel. Totally recommend to actively participate and share with the guests if your English allows it. That's one the most amazing things the guest house has: the opportunity to meet people from all around that come to stay for a couple nights at this beautiful hotel. Thank you Daragh for receiving me and for the trust you placed in me.

Perfect experience. Dara is an open, honest, and inspiring host. Tasks were diverse and meaningful—sometimes even meditative. It's not a place to relax all day; you're expected to contribute. The house is remote, so be comfortable with solitude. If you're motivated, flexible, and ready to help, you'll love it here. I felt truly useful and could apply my creative and practical skills. One of the best experiences of my life. 5 stars! Charakters are limitless but i can Tell you much more. If you have any questions just ask me.
