The Time with Sarah and Andrew was a was an entirely good experience. They were the first accommodation on the trip of me and my friend and it couldn't have been better experience. They were very friendly and there was a family atmosphere. I can only recommend a trip there.

Sarah and Andrew were the best first hosts me and my friend could have imagined. Very good in communication, lovely people to be around, fun to work with and very kind. They picked us up from Marmande and took us around when needed, even went out of their way to take us on a plane ride. Furthermore, delicious food was provided as well as a homey feeling established in the three weeks we were there. The whole package deal! Thank you and you reading this will enjoy being here;) Lots of love from me and Franca

It was my first experience as a WP volunteer and it was more than I could ever imagine. Sarah and Andrew are one of the most genuine and warm-hearted people I know, and are truly the best hosts! Their property is extraordinary, and knowing that I helped renovate it is an honour. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the further progress of the work. Thank you, Sarah and Andrew, for being so good to me and Bartek 😊

The stay with Sarah and Andrew, although short, was amazing. The family atmosphere, working together and preparing meals together was wonderful. The tasks were clearly defined. A constant smile and a helping hand in every situation accompanied every day. This was my first such trip, and thanks to it I began to feel definitely more confident. I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone!!!

It was truly a wonderful experience. The location, the people and the atmosphere were just perfect and I can't recommend this destination enough. Sarah and Andrew are two extremely polite and amazing hosts, I really enjoyed spending time with them and getting to know them in general. They are clear, fair and precise about the working terms and they make extra sure everything goes as smooth as possible.
