Wow wow wow. What a blessing it was to be with this beautiful family. I am so grateful for the time I've spent here. I felt I was home. The hours are very flexible and done on a trust basis. Most work was either tending to their garden or chores around the house. In such a beautiful location in beautiful Glastonbury. I can't recommend this stay enough. I had my own space and room which was really great. So so much love for you guys and I will be back Soph :)

Sophie and Sally were very welcoming and kind, as were their other family members who were in and out while I was there. Busy and boisterous household, beautiful land and views of the valley, and a bus stop and small grocery store right across the street. Cats were cute and friendly. Tasks were mostly straightforward. Had my own room, shared the bathroom with rest of house, and was free to use their kitchen and pantry.

Bridget was happy to get stuck in to gardening jobs while she stayed with us:-)
Thank you for visiting us Bridget! It was nice to meet you and we appreciated the help you gave us:-)
Hope you find the perfect job and we wish you a lovely Christmas and a great year ahead.
(Apologies for not writing you a review - I was quite ill just after you left and unable to attend to any admin etc)

Both Sophie and Sally were immediately welcoming, and determined to make us comfortable in their home. Sophie spent a lot of time to set us up with a great private living space, and made sure we had everything we needed. When one of us got sick the first day we were supposed to start working, they were very understanding and allowed us to take time off until we recovered. The work itself was nothing too laborious and met our expectations. Glastonbury is an eclectic little town with beautiful scenery, so if you're a fan of small towns charm and the countryside, this could be a great fit.

Hi Stephanie - I am sorry that I did not manage to write you both a review! As you know just before you both left I had to go and take care of some family things and I was there for nearly 2 weeks and completely forgot that there was a deadline to write your review....
So I will write one in my reply:-) Thank you for coming to visit us - we really appreciated the jobs and projects you undertook while you were here.... Clearing those huge piles of hedge cuttings and then keeping the bonfire going all day was no small feat and neither was the job you both did of clearing the ground and paths in readiness for laying stones.
And Sabine did a fantastic job carefully removing a year's worth of cobwebs from the entire kitchen and cleaning all the walls!
We recommend Stephanie and Sabine and feel sure they will always endeavour to bring their best wherever they land.
I know it was a bit of rocky start and getting ill is never fun away from home but hopefully you are now well on your way and having lots more great adventures!
