Beschreibung
Our place is a very special spot in the wilds of south west Scotland. We live on a magical small holding with woodland, rivers and pasture. We are a permaculture land centre and work with hugel beds and donkies, provide a space for forest schools and practice regenerative agriculture.

I'm obsessed with forest gardening and plants. We do a lot of gardening, harvesting and preserving all with a permaculture bent.

My partner makes cargo bikes and is often Involved in bigger art projects. He is driven by self empowerment through skills and tool use. Whilst we are rural we have lots of amazing visitors and plenty of stimulation. Last year we have secured funding to build a childrens food forest, with a compost loo, passive solar green house and a timber framed shelter. We are now putting them to use. It's a big experiment.
Our neighbours also practice permaculture and have volunteers. together we form a fascinating cluster living community.

longer term volunteers have a gorgeous expedition truck or our incredible 1950s vintage caravan.
folk visiting for the camps will require camping gear.

all food is provided.
except chocolate and booze.

Vom Workawayer (Paco) für Host

Wow... I don't know how to describe the days that I spent in this amazing place. It was my first Workaway experience and my first time without my family and friends but Lorraine, Uula, Aarnie and Unti made me feel at home. They were all lovely and of course the amazing volunteers that I met there were amazing, too.

At first I was insecure and… read more

Lorraine and Uula were amazing hosts, they made me feel so welcome from the moment I arrived. Their communication and flexibility with arrangements was excellent. They are so easy going and really include you in their daily activities. The tasks were varied and Lorraine always asked what you wanted to do or if you had any preferences to chores.… read more

They were kind, generous and fun loving, as were the other volunteers staying with them at the time who I made great friends with.

I spent the last days of my trip in Scotland with Lorraine and her family, they were such amazing human beings! At first I wanted to thank them for supporting my disease and my fear of returning from the trip. The site is a fairy tale, and so are Aarni and the little monkey! I've slept in an old school Westfalia, the other amazing workawayers and… read more

Hi Lorraine and Uula, I am well arrived in Ireland now.
For anyone who wonder if it's a good place to go: it is. If you love the nature you will be happy with the oak trees, the river, the deers, the fresh air. And if you're lucky and have snow, it becomes magic ! So even if it was cold for me in january, I was warm in my heart thanks to these… read more

It is a cozy place, which… read more

This family... Where should I begin? With the fact that they are purely and simply an amazing bunch of people or that I expected to stay two weeks and ended up staying for two months.
The property is absolutely gorgeous and the work was very interesting and ranged a great deal. I learnt so much working with Lorraine and Uula, and from… read more

Vom Host für Workawayer (Nelson)

If you are lucky enough to receive a request from Nelson. Grab him. He is easy to live with, works hard, does good quality work and answers all the children's questions with endless patience. He came for a few days and stayed a couple of months. We hope to see him again.
