My stay with Jill and Steve was truly wonderful. From the very first day, they made me feel completely at home. They are warm, generous, funny and incredibly thoughtful people. The tasks were varied and enjoyable, and I also had plenty of free time to explore beautiful Devon. They included me in their daily life, introduced me to their friends and shared local traditions with me. It was much more than volunteering; it was a genuine cultural exchange full of unforgettable moments. I arrived as a guest and left feeling part of the family. I highly recommend staying with them!

My experience here was more than perfect! Jill and Steve are incredible hosts, kind, caring and so warm. They were always there to propose fun activities around the village. I cycled, walked along the coast and visited the cities around. They even managed to bring us some places around for some activities, and there is also a bus stop just in front of the house. The work schedule is perfect. We work on mornings around the land, allowing us to have plenty of time on the afternoons to visit the area. I would recommend this place without any hesitation!

I can't say enough about Jill and Steve they were like parents to me. My connection with them went far beyond just volunteering; I felt at home, like part of their family, with all the laughter, deep conversations, and so much respect. Jill and Steve have become a role model for me as a couple; we learned so much together. Thank you, my English family, I love you all!! <3

Jill and Steve are very kind and hospitable, it was like being at home with my parents, always taken care of and comfortable and fed.Life in a historical thatched roof house makes the experience like something from a story book. The work was rewarding, fun, and inspiring then we would finish the day with some epic adventures on the coast with beautiful views and best of all , very friendly locals. The recommendation was top notch. My favorite part was meeting the locals and being immersed in the couture and eating so much good food and pubs.

Our experience at the home was fantastic! Jill and Steve were amazing hosts. Our accommodations were private and comfortable, we had our own space to unwind and relax. The work was fun! We did outside projects and got to restore a few pond, build a willow fence with a fairy door! We did some hedging and clearing too, it felt great to work outside. Having meals together was a great way to learn more about the area and culture and were delicious! We had a great time and would highly recommend!

Their kindness and cheerful energy were truly heartwarming. They introduced us to English cuisine Jill's cooking is absolutely delicious! They were always attentive to our needs. We're so grateful for the warmth and hospitality they shared with us. Thank you for making this experience unforgettable!

Well, it was more than expected, charming, understanding, friendly and cheerful. I worked in the mornings and in the afternoons I visited many places since they took me to several sites; sometimes they brought me back, other times I returned by bus, which is worth it because they are double-decker and the landscapes are wonderful. They proposed places I could visit. They invited us to a typical English afternoon tea and on Friday, as is customary there, for dinner fish and ships. The room was great because I went alone but if you go as a couple even better because they have an exclusive apartment for volunteers. I was happy
