The Experience

In this position I offer you accomodation in our so called Small House, which actually is not really small. Normally we rent this out for around 1000€ a week. So this is a real Vacation, only that instead of paying, you help. I prefer that generally you provide by yourself for your meals, but you can have products from our garden and eggs for free. Every now and then you culd also eat with us, but we do not cook regularly.

My wife and I had an amazing time at Le Torrecelle. Uschi is an amazing host and the property is very beautiful and historic. Uschi trusted us to work independently in the garden and was very flexible on hours and working days, allowing us to take days off at will to explore the surrounding towns and even letting us borrow her car for longer trips. The work we did in the garden was very educational and rewarding, and we were able to supplement our groceries with fresh fruit and greens including tomatoes, grapes, pears, and much more. We very much hope to return someday!

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at the host. The property and surroundings are breathtaking. We enjoyed working in the garden, caring for the chickens, and assisting in some construction tasks. Uschi was kind and generous in sharing opportunities to see some of the neighboring towns in Le Marche. Would highly recommend for a cozy stay in a stunning, historic place with the chance to slow down and connect with nature!

Beautiful place!! Uschi was very kind and the work was not hard at all. We did some work in the garden and also some building. Hours were short and the pool was an awesome break from the sun and sweat. Really recommend!!

We had a very pleasant stay with Uschi! While it was more on the remote side, the property was absolutely lovely. We were able to use the car and pool whenever, which was very nice. She lets you build your own schedule and is very fair/flexible with the work, making trips away easy. Would recommend!

This experience is 100 percent worth it! Me and my sister stayed for 2 weeks. Uschi was an amazing host, she was super accommodating and helpful. She was helpful in recommending places to visit and nearby grocery stores. Me and my sister rented a car which I definitely do recommend since it is up a mountain and most places worth visiting are a 30min-1 hour drive away. Every morning we woke up, she gave us some tasks we could do and we worked until we were done. She's super flexible and understanding. The house is also gorgeous and so were the views. I would recommend this to anybody!
