We had a really nice experience in Glastonbury, Sophie is very kind and always willing to make you feel comfortable. We had a problem with the tent we were staying in and she gave us a room in the house. Glastonbury is a very special town and we enjoyed it very much! A lovely place to stay, definitely recommended :)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 stars for Noa! Every volunteer has a super power and we discovered that Noa is an AMAZING cleaner and can make anything sparkle! Noa is perhaps a little shy at times but always kind, friendly and willing...We recommend her to other hosts and I am hoping these stars will be seen by other hosts as I didn't manage to wite a review before the deadline! Thank you for coming to visit us Noa and we wish you and Israel the best in your travels and adventures <3 🌍💖

Sophie was incredibly welcoming, provided me with a safe place to sleep, delicious food, and warm showers. Upon my arrival, Sophie kindly arranged for my pickup (one night I got lost in the dark, she went out of her way to find me and bring me back to her place). Her hospitality truly impressed me. Delicious Vegetarian Meals, Beautiful Farm, a picturesque haven with lush green landscapes and a vegetable greenhouse. Sophie's place is conveniently situated within walking distance of fascinating local attractions. I can't thank enough for the wonderful experience. I'll definitely come back!

Staying with Sophie, Sally and all of their family was such a beautiful experience, I felt like home, everything was great I don't have anything bad to say about it, I really felt pure love at the project. Glastonbury is also a very special place you can feel magic there. I would recommend this experience to all people who likes tranquility an be in touch with nature.

Sophie and her family welcomed me with open arms into their home and their lives, and I couldn't be more grateful for that ❤️. About my time in the project, not only did I get to work in various projects , but also learnt to take care of different plants, get my hands on the earth and experience a new lifestyle. The schedule is flexible and there's lots of things for you to do! I felt safe, happy and truly blessed to be there. Sophie and her whole family makes you feel taken care of and you can see that it is genuine. Thank you so much for everything!! It's been amazing! 🤍

My experience in Sophie's house was lovely. I got to meet her family, their friends and even their band! They are a special family, living in a special town and at the same time everything is as real as it can get. While being there I met also other volunteers from different countries so the experience was very culturally rich and fun. I felt like at home, free to cook whatever I wanted, to manage my hours and build my own routine. The work to do depends sometimes on the weather and on the stage of the veggies and different projects going on.

Julian - we loved your visit and we really hope to meet you again some day! I forgot to say how much we appreciated your willingness to be flexible sometimes - we also love to be flexible with your needs and it is special when we can all go beyond a purely transactional experience:-) We love to build trust and a sense of community with our visitors as it then feels like we become a real part of each other's lives - if only for a short time...
Thank you and we wish you More wonderful Adventures! 🙏😍

The experience at the project were simply the best possible. It was my first time volunteering for WP and I really loved it. Sophie and her family welcomed us with love and goodwill. There were also other volunteers with whom we quickly formed a strong and friendly connection. Sophie is very flexible with tasks and schedules. We had great communication, and everything was very clear. We were able to use the kitchen and there were many delicious meals. It was a great time to practice English and learn a lot about using gardening tools.

What a wonderful time with Sophie and her family! This was my first Worldpackers experience and I could have not asked for a better one! They were very accommodating and made me feel like a part of their family. The work was mostly working on their plots of land, tending the garden and landscaping. The town of Glastonbury is a very spiritual one! I enjoyed learning about it and the history as well as exploring. Met other volunteers and we all created an amazing friend group. All in all, I highly recommend the project whether its your first time or you're a seasoned volunteer.

I should have included some of the many jobs that Ethan did while he was with us (only 11 days) - clearing large patches of nettles, levelling and landscaping an area of our garden, moving endless wheelbarrows of sand and stone, managing a huge bonfire over several days, helping to construct some concrete steps as well as great stints in the kitchen - washing up, drying up and making communal meals! An all rounder for sure!

I have no words to describe my experience in this beautiful place with these amazing people. Working in the garden, helping to build this space in a variety of ways, in good company and with a spectacular view was an experience that I will take with me forever. Sophie and her family are welcoming and transmit joy and good energy. The job is flexible and revolves around gardening and building, there's so much to do! Sophie committed to everything we agreed. I enjoyed it so much that I hope I can come back as soon as possible!
