We had such a wonderful stay with Steph and Russell. They were super warm and welcoming, we always felt at home. The work was straightforward and expectations were communicated very well. Tasks were also assigned to each of us according to our strengths while also allowing us to learn some new skills. The accomodation was nice and cosy and we had all the facilities we needed, plus they provided delicious meals for dinner. The area is lovely and quiet, perfect for exploring by foot or using public transport. We would come back in a heartbeat!

Volunteering at the camping was a truly enriching experience. Russ and Steph are both lovely people and we enjoyed our family dinners immensely. The site is beautiful and the accommodations were clean. We had a separate kitchen and bathroom space just for us. The work was straightforward and discussed each day. The bus picks up right outside so it was easy to explore the island on our days off. We definitely recommend this volunteer opportunity!

A really good stay! I would recommend going with a car as the buses are not the best, and finding ways to get to and from places on days when you're working can be quite unfeasible. The work is sometimes heavy going, but Russ and Steph were good at communicating and did exactly what they said they would in the listing.

Steph and Russel were super welcoming and polite, they respected everything that was agreed upon and provided a very comfortable space to stay and work with them. Their place is fully equipped, organized and clean. It has incredible views and the village is also a sight to see. 100% Recommended !
