The Magpie's Nest

Our guest house is located within England's greatest city - York. The city itself is a giant museum with history stretching back thousands of years. There are hundreds of pubs and restaurants and plenty of attractions to keep you entertained during your stay. If you volunteer at our place you will meet people from around the world!

My wife Katrin and I have been running this guest house for a few years now. We are friendly people and like to have lots of fun with whatever life throws at us. We are looking for someone to help out at the guest house as Katrin is pregnant with our second child.

It was an exceptional experience with Catherine and Johnny Johnny and their charming daughter.

We were able to share many wonderful moments around dinner.

I was also able to improve my English and discover some wonderful new places around York.

The location is great for going out and sightseeing. Everything is within walking distance and the city is really beautiful.

My first Worldpackers experience was fantastic! Katrin and Johnny were wonderful hosts who always made sure I was comfortable. They gave me great tips for exploring York and nearby cities. I loved playing with their daughter Emily, and baby Louisa is adorable. The work was simple, and I had plenty of time to explore the city. The guest house was conveniently located near the train station and city center. I had an incredible time thanks to them. I highly recommend this experience.

My experience with Katie and Johnny was incredible! They are kind and attentive and made me feel at home! The tasks are mostly housekeeping and helping with painting the witches' new house. Johnny does an impressive job as a carpenter! Working hours are as agreed and you often work less than 5 hours a day. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to help a family that is running their own business and enjoy getting to know York and nearby cities! The Guest House is super well located! In a 15 minutes walk you will be at the train station and in 25 minutes in the city center!

My time with Jonny and Katy was really healing and exciting as a first time solo-traveller. I felt comfortable within their home, got to know their family, and connected with the girl with whom I shared the room. The work is incredibly reasonable and I even got to help with some construction, which was really nice after losing a lot of my tool access after graduation from university. They taught us some traditional games, we ate at their house weekly, and they had great suggestions for what to do in York. York is very beautiful, calm, and full of local culture. Thanks to them both!

I had a nice time at Katy and Johny's house. The tasks were communicated every day and they were easy and as we had agreed. You have plenty of time to explore the city, which is really beautiful. I got the chance to spend some time with the family and babysit Emily, their eldest daughter. She is a lovely girl! This is a great experience if you're looking to get to know a beautiful historic city and have some relaxing time as well.
