Highgrove House

If you are interested in horses, love dogs and cats and want to experience country life in a beautiful part of rural Shropshire please get in touch. We are quite remote but a railway station and supermarket are within walking distance. You will need strong, preferably waterproof footwear and warm clothing is advisable for the colder months You will be helping to care for animals which means the working day is split into two shifts. Morning, which is the longer shift and late afternoon when you will be getting them comfortable for the night. The hours in the middle of the day are free.

The work involved is mainly with the horses, handling them and caring for them on a day to day basis, it is outside in all weather and physical, although not excessively so. Experience is preferred but not entirely necessary as we are happy to help you learn as you go. ** Please remember horses are big, powerful, majestic animals, if this worries you then sadly it’s not the experience for you. ***😊 Riding is not involved. It can be wet, cold and muddy, it can also be stunningly beautiful and a wonderful place to be. We work as a team. You will be living as one of the family.

The experience in this place for me was good. I felt comfortable and welcomed by Terry, Andrew, and the rest of the family. The job there is for three or four people normally, however, we were 7 volunteers, which made everything easier. In general, I enjoyed my time taking after the beautiful horses there, they are such lovely and kind animals. In the same way, The food was good, they are really good at cooking so dinners were an experience every night. When there were difficulties, they solved them in a good way.
I could recommend this place for future travelers, I was so happy there.

A experiência foi fantástica. Terri e sua família são muito gentis. A comida é muito boa. A cidade é pequena e tem poucos habitantes, porém a fazenda fica próxima à uma estação de trem, então é bem fácil visitar outras cidades. O trabalho é bem tranquilo, ele é basicamente alimentar os cavalos e limpar cocô.

Minha experiência na higrove house foi incrível. Foram ótimos 1 mês e meio ao lado de excelentes companhias, tanto a família Pickard quanto os outros voluntários que estavam lá.
Todos voluntários trabalham juntos, o que faz com que fiquemos mais próximos e conectados. Terri e sua família foram sempre muito atenciosos! Andy faz ótimos jantares e todos os animais são maravilhosos.
Espero um dia reencontra-los!
