Torridon Estate was my first volunteer experience so I don't have much to compare my experience with but I think overall the experience was great. The loch and hills are stunning.
The tasks required were straight forward, simple and I never worked more than the agreed hours.
Some things to note if you are going to volunteer here:
- the loch is pretty remote. You will love it if you like hiking and nature. There is not much else.
-If you don't have your own transport you will be essentially 'stuck' in the village.
-its mostly housekeeping, very little to no maintenance.

As a first time volunteer I can highly recommend going to Torridon. The sense of community is really strong -- even as a solo-traveller one never gets lonely. Our teamleader Jorge made sure that everybody could work on the tasks that suited them best and always had an open ear for us, when there was a problem. Additionally, the landscape around the estate truly is breathtaking. Due to its remote location, I really felt like I could just disconnect from the stress of everyday life. Torridon is definitely a great place to get to know the highlands and a place that felt like home away from home!

Torridon was my first worldpackers experience and it was made so special by the team leader Jorge and the other volunteers. The work is fair, and the hours are respected. Torridon estate itself is absolutely stunning, there are some nice hikes or walking trails nearby. Just note that it is very isolated so most of the time is spent at the estate.
I feel like I have made lifelong friends with Jorge and everyone else I met along the way here, I would highly recommend

As our first Worldpackers experience Torridon set the bar high! We met a lot of amazing volunteers, were able to immerse ourselves in the community there and enjoyed the peace of the Highlands. The tasks were very reasonable and hours were respected. Jorge the team leader made our experience as special as could be, kept the vibes of the house strong and was a great leader and communicator. It's a truly special place.

Torridon was my very first volunteering experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better start. I felt welcome and supported from day one. We had an amazing team leader, Jorge, who made everyone feel comfortable and involved. The tasks were varied and interesting, and the surroundings were absolutely breathtaking. I'm so grateful for this experience and all the memories made. I would definitely recommend Torridon to future volunteers!
A huge thank you to Felix and Sarah for their warm welcome !
