The Experience

Our season is ending and we are looking for hands to help pack down tents, move furniture and get everything ready for winter. We will all work together from 9am - 2pm 6 days a week. We provide hot meal at the end of the day & ingredients and shared cooking facilities for other meals. The weather is still warm, and the sun is shining and the work is physically hard, but a lot of fun. If you can use a drill, and don't mind heights its for you!

I had the best time at the camping!! I would highly recommend coming. There was a big community atmosphere you get to share with the other staff and volunteers. You could ask to have your day off on a specific day and my hours were respected. The tents you stay in aren't the ones in the images shown and you'd have to be okay living with bugs and dirt! I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the camping and will miss it a lot!! 💗💗💗💗

I had such a great time working at the camping. Not only do you get the amazing opportunity to work on a beautiful picturesque island, but working with such a great social team, puts the cherry on top! I spent my time at the camping working in the maintenance department. The job was really dynamic and every day felt different in its own way. I really enjoyed the work and the hours were well respected. The food was incredible, different everyday, cooked amazing and you never went to bed hungry 😋 Thank you to Alexi and Maddy for hosting me, best of the future.

I had the most amazing time at the camping. Alexi and Maddy were great hosts, the food was incredible and the staff were amazing to work with. The glamping site itself is a wonderful and relaxing space, and the staff tent area is cozy and social. The hours are respected and fair, and there is plenty to do in the island outside your working hours and on your days off. I highly, highly recommend working here. About 6 weeks was the sett spot for me I think, but I definitely would have stayed longer if my itinerary allowed it.

Great if you are looking for a quieter experience. the camping is a beautiful island with lots to do if you enjoy water sport, beach days, sunset views, good food, and community! It is not for a large social vibe - but the camp is a beautiful community that is family centric with a strong staff dynamic. Would encourage those considering this stay to think about the camping aspect as staff do live in tents that have full beds and some storage - but not like the on site glamping tents for guests. If this all sounds like a bit of you - would strongly recommend for a 10/10 experience!!
