I have no words to describe how special this experience was. Harriet and Rachel are super attentive, polite and very dedicated to renovating this beautiful house. They are always worried about you and your comfort. Alfie is a very affectionate dog, he has a lot of love to offer and loves a lot of attention! Living with the girls and Alfie is super welcoming, comfortable and I felt very happy. I recommend this experience to anyone!

Rachel and Harriet were the best hosts ever. They've made everything to ensure we're comfortable and happy with the volunteering. I cannot thank you both enough. They have Alfie which is the most lovely dog. The volunteering is easy done and they make sure you have everything you need. We'd do few hours in the morning after breakfast and stopping at lunch time. If you're in doubt about them, just apply and I ensure you'll have a blast!!! xx
