I had a really brilliant time in the host. Working at Brynawel taught me lots of new things; I really pushed myself and discovered a side to myself that I'd never expected. Will and Lou are two really kind, funny, and friendly people who welcome everyone with open arms. They create an environment where you feel safe and welcome. The work was also really fun, especially as you're usually with other volunteers and get to meet new people. The town is in a really lovely location and, alongside work, you also have plenty of time to yourself. It really was an unforgettable time! <3

This was my first volunteering experience and it was incredible. Louise and Will are the best hosts I could have asked for, kind, welcoming, and always helpful. Abery has one of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen, and the people are very friendly. The tasks are exactly as described, taking care of the Airbnbs and keeping them clean, allowing a genuine exchange between hosts and volunteers. I highly recommend this authentic and positive experience.

Amazing first experience as a volunteer. Louise and William are great host. They are super kind and fun. They enjoy to pass some time sharing with you. The work is not heavy, just be clean and organized. I love to meet them and meet the host, wich is a lovely City. I 100% recomend ❤️

BrynAwel's a guesthouse, 2 mins walk from the host beach. Toad Hall's a hostel in Machynlleth, 1hr away by bus. Volunteers work in the host, cleaning the rooms after 11am checkout (no reception involved, all self-check ins). Bill the owner, mostly does Toad Hall but will sometimes ask a volunteer to come over if he's not available (not always with much notice, but will cover travel expense). Food is weekly cash. Come with a very open and relaxed mind, with no expectations and go with the flow. The work is light and simple, with enough hands. the host is a great town.

I stayed for three months, and Bill and Louise are wonderful hosts! The hostel is homey and incredibly easy to look after. The bedroom I was given was large and solitary so I had plenty of time to study on my own. It did get a little bit chilly in the colder months but with some layers and extra blankets that wasn't a problem. the host feels very safe and the coast is less than five minutes away on foot! This was such an amazing experience and I am looking forward to returning in the spring. Thank you Bill and Louise! <3

Louise and Bil were really nice and fun hosts. They are patient and flexible, also very curious to hear about different cultures. I worked in both Machynlleth and the host. Machynlleth is more rural and has lots of hiking trails that you can explore alone. the host on the other hand is more urban. It doesn't have much to do, like big museums or big parties. It is a calm coastal city. I was lucky to work with other 2 volunteers, but there were times that things were too calm. Both are quiet places to reflect. I recommend it for those looking for a peaceful retreat.

I stayed one more month in Aberystwyth and once again it was a great experience! Bill and Louise are wonderful hosts and always supportive. The place is unique, right by the sea and castle ruins, with everything close by. Tasks are simple and flexible, usually shared with 1–2 volunteers. The private room with a double bed and a weekly food allowance makes it very comfortable. It's definitely a perfect place to rest, enjoy the view, and recharge! :)

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
