The place is great. I really enjoyed my time there and would go back any time! Bruno is a great host who always tries to spend some of his free time with the volenteers. We enjoyed each others company and had a lot of fun together!
To reach the pleace i would highly recommemd to rent a car. That is really the best option you have so see the
… read more beautiful beach, go surfing and visit the town nearby. We shared the car between the volenteers which was a good option to also safe some money. I rented the car in Santiago (full insured) for 18€ a day from the Company GoBycar - was a good price but i would always recommend to book it on the airport not online because it is easier with the insurance.
In the town Foz is a great surfingscool called Sensacion Surf who also rents material. The people are very nice and helped me a lot as a beginner.
The work was depending on what was needed the most but most of the time we did some renovating on the old stonewalls or some work in the garden. The work was not too hard and only for three hours a day.
The volenteers stay in a separated room with separated kitchen and bathroom. We always cooked for ourselfes but sometimes enyojed a meal together. That way you have a lot of free time you can spend however you like!
I would totally recommend the place it was a great experience!Left by host for Workawayer (Daniela)
Daniela was an amazing volunteer, super friendly and enthusiastic. She is a hardworker and likes learning new things. I totally recommend her!!

I had a wonderful time at Bruno and Anne’s place. it was my first experience as a volunteer and i couldn’t have expected a better way to start my workaway journey.
Bruno and Anne are both amazing persons, who welcome you warmly and take you to all their activities and daily life on the coastline. If you are a surfer, you will definitely love this

The work was mainly to cut the grass and restore a stone wall, Bruno took the time to explain us precisely what we had to do and was always available to answer our questions.
The accommodation provided, surrounded by the beautiful garden and lemon trees is more than enough and you can cook and use the firestove.
Thank you again and see you soon i hope !

Thanks a lot to Bruno and Anne for this wonderful experience!!
They were really kind and gave a lot of good tips to visit the surrondings. Galicia is an amazing place to discover with lot of beautiful landscapes to see!
The work was fun to do (restoring a stone wall of an old galician house) and you can organize your working days as you want (at

Bruno and Anne were super accommodating and have a really cute little setup, they made my first workaway experience really comfortable. It was nice to be nature and explore the little town and surrounding area, the work was engaging the hours relaxed. I most enjoyed our Bachata lesson!! So much fun to meet some local friends and learn some dance

I stayed 3 weeks at their place and it was awesome. There was another volunteer so it was really nice and we had a great time together. Both Anne and Bruno were really busy but that wasn't a problem at all. Bruno clearly said what we have to do and it was up to us when we do the work. We only had to work 3 h a day max. We mostly had to work in the

Bruno also gave us many advices on what to in the area around (and especially where to go surfing!). It was necessary do have a car to get around easy. Surfing for all kind of levels is perfect there. Neo (the dog) is also very nice:) Thanks a lot for hosting

My stay at Bruno's place was extraordinary! The little flat where the volunteers are living is more than enough. We had everything we needed there. The communication with Bruno was really good as well! He always showed us clearly what to do and he gave us many advices about activities in the area. The work was fun too with a lot of self

The area is really good for surfers at all kinds of levels, Bruno will recommend you a lot of good surfing spots since he knows everything around this area:) All in all we can say that we enjoyed the time really much and even stayed longer than we originally planned!

I got to work at Bruno's for 10 days, and each day was an adventure! Bruno knows the area very well, so he will show you the best surf spots, skateparks, and hiking trails. The area is beautiful and the work is enjoyable. Bruno is very kind and will make you feel at home. The room you will stay in is very beautiful and is fully equipped with

I stayed with Bruno for 9 days and head a great time. His property is very pretty and he is a really nice guy. the help wasn't too hard and I really appreciated the flexible hours. Bruno also took us to a local restaurant and showed us how to make a couple of Spanish dishes. One thing you should know is you definitely need a car, his property is

I stayed with another volunteer for about 9 days with Bruno & Anne. Both are super kindhearted. The place they have is quite magical. It is an old Galician stone house surrounded by green hills which reminded me a bit of Ireland. Even though it is quite remote, it is only 10 minutes to several playas where you can surf. Be aware public transport

The tasks we have done was picking fruits from the gardens, mowing the grass and restoring a stone wall of an old barn. All in all I felt very comfortable and a great time during my stay. Thank you for hosting me :)

It was a wonderful experience to stay in the little village with Bruno, Anne, and their animals for one week. I was welcomed very kindly and Bruno showed us around the area and we went surfing together. We painted some doors, collected the wood in the garden and cutted the grass. The tasks are really simple and it was fun! Their place is quiet and
