This experience was truly amazing. Thanks to the wonderful people I got to meet, the great accommodation, and the provided groceries, my two months flew by. The hours were flexible, and if a trip was planned, asking for a few days off in a row was no problem. In addition to housekeeping, we also learned how to temper chocolate—an interesting and valuable skill to acquire. All in all, I can wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for an extraordinary volunteer opportunity. I am looking forward to returning in the future. Thank you!

I had the most amazing time at the guest house! Yaz, his family, and everyone I worked with were so welcoming, supportive and generous. They truly made me feel like part of the team and I loved that I could bring my personal skills (yoga teaching) into the experience. The space is cozy, comfortable and really well-equipped. The stunning location, inviting atmosphere, along with the chance to explore Oxford and London during my time off, made it even better. Over all, it was such an unforgettable experience and I'm beyond grateful for the opportunity to be a part of it!

I had a wonderful time at the guest house! The work hours are clearly organized and respected. Besides the cleaning you also do lots of other activities like chocolate making, which is a nice change from time to time. Joanna and Pauline, the cleaning staff, are very sweet and helpful, giving guidance if needed and making sure the volunteers feel comfortable to ask questions. Yaz is very kind and attentive to the volunteers needs, ensuring everyone feels at home and that each volunteer has a good experience. I can definitely recommend volunteering here!

Oxford was lovely, a lot history and nature. Very easy access to the city center. the guest house was a magical experience connected with nature and sustainability, the host always try to produce new things from his lands like honey and now chocolate, which means you are not only helping with cleaning but also having fun learning how to make chocolate while you can enjoy the nature e the facilities, it's a very relaxing environment. Yaz and family was very welcoming and friendly, also the work lady's (Joana and Pauline, they're amazing). The private room was very comfy too.

A heartwarming experience! The family's generosity creates a welcoming atmosphere with weekly family dinners, and Yaz's weekend visits bring great conversation and fun activity ideas for everyone. Talking and joking with the family made it even more special. During the week, personal initiative is key, with independence to manage tasks. Cleaning standards are high, with clear guidance provided. Pauline and Joana are kind and helpful. I primarily worked with Isabella and Ariel, who were wonderful and supportive! Thanks for the lovely memories!

Eleri initially came to volunteer at the guesthouse but her talent at social media was recognised quickly and so she shifted to focus on the social media and blog writing working with Isabella. Eleri is talented, creative and hard working. She would be an asset to anyone looking to add to their creative team. Thanks Eleri for your awesome work!
