Workaway reviews, feedback and ratings - page 2

Para nosotras era la primera vez que acogíamos a una pareja y, la verdad, fue una experiencia muy fácil y bonita. Se adaptaron con mucha naturalidad al ritmo de la finca y a nuestra dinámica familiar. Tienen un espíritu muy colaborador y siempre estuvieron disponibles. Fueron muy cuidadosos con nuestros animales y con el hogar. Son personas cercanas, con quienes resulta fácil confiar y convivir. Además, su experiencia como viajeros nos regaló conversaciones realmente interesantes. Ya sois parte de la familia y esperamos veros de nuevo por aquí más pronto que tarde. 💛

I've only got great things to say about this mob! Very welcoming, good communicators and up for some quality chats, including their 3 year old who is bilingual and sharp as a tack. I had plenty to chance to enjoy cycling on my time off or sample an endless supply of soft cheese and homemade cider. The work was enjoyable and incredibly scenic, but felt secondary to the beautiful people I was lucky to meet.

Curtis has a great calm vibe, excellent customers service and friendly. He will definitely be a great asset to your operations. We highly recommend him!

Louise is a wonderful, intelligent hard working young lady! I really enjoyed getting to know her, and the quality of her work was extremely high. 100% recommended

Thank you for these words Nathan Truly you have been a brother Reading this feels like listening to the evening birds settling into the trees quiet, sincere, and full of heart. What we share here is simple, and maybe that is why it becomes meaningful. The rhythm of the day, the food made with care, the conversations that wander without hurry… it is never something I plan. It unfolds on its own when someone arrives open, just as you did. And I must smile that you didn’t mention the endless herbal teas brewed with too much enthusiasm tulsi from the garden makes your day. Perhaps that is also part of the experience: sitting in silence with a warm cup in hand, watching the light change. Even my love for wearing a dhoti in the middle of the nowhere in India has found its silent witness in you. Simplicity is not an idea here it is something we practice I am grateful you allowed yourself to flow with the space rather than trying to shape it. That openness is what creates the magic, not me. The door remains open not just physically, but in spirit do share about us to more people looking for such spirit within

Clare and Abbey are really lovely people with a very strong work ethic. I really recommend them to other hosts.

Nosotros estuvimos 10 días con Martin en su casa en la selva. La casa está ubicada a unos 30 minutos caminando de Mocoa, en medio del verde y con fácil acceso a un río hermosísimo donde se puede nadar y a unas cascadas muy impresionantes. El trabajo es variado y depende de las necesidades de Martin en cada momento; nosotros ayudamos en la construcción de una maloca y en el cuidado del pequeño huerto que tiene. Martin es una persona con la que es agradable convivir y siempre intenta que te sientas cómodo; la comunicación siempre fue fluida. Si uno lo desea, tiene la posibilidad de tener sus propios espacios y su libertad para estar en contacto con la naturaleza de manera segura. Cocinar no siempre es fácil, ya que se hace únicamente con estufa, pero siempre comimos bien y en abundancia.

Elisha and Clement were a wonderful addition to our team. They got along well with everyone, and were very professional in following a work plan, and creating wonderful videos and images. Their deep appreciation for the resort and it's natural beauty was reflected in the quality of their work. Their advice was useful, and their presence will be missed. Thanks Eli & Clem!

Rachel stayed with us for a short period and proved to be calm, patient, and reliable around the horses. She followed the routines as explained and completed the daily tasks steadily. Her skills with the horses are really good, and she handled the animals with care. She was learning Spanish and was practicing while she was here. Communication about the work was clear, and she respected the schedule and guidelines we set. She showed autonomy when needed and asked questions when something was uncertain, which we appreciated. She was proactive with daily tasks and cooking/cleaning the house. Overall, she contributed positively during her time here, and we thank her for the help she provided at our sanctuary.

Erica stayed for over two weeks us in November 2025. She was a lovely person to share our home with and she worked very hard every day. She was very enthusiastic and didn’t mind what task we set her. She was very interested in gardening and she helped us a lot in the garden on general maintenance including planting, weeding and clearing. She was also very helpful around the house and didn’t mind cleaning and domestic tasks. We had lovely dinners together which she always helped to prepare and was always the first to clear away and wash up. She was very interested in gardening and English country gardens in particular. We showed her a lot of books on English gardens and we even watched tv shows about English gardens! Erica is a super workawayer and I would thoroughly recommend her.

I stayed for one month with Carlotta and Marco. This was my first workaway experience and it was a great one. They are extremely friendly and helpful. They were kind enough to let me keep my motorcycle with them over Christmas and Marco even helped me fix my motorcycle. They also invited me out to a theater and a Christmas dinner. Their 2 dogs, Nero and Mirta, are very loving and the cat, Tobia, is a rascal, but you can’t help but love him. Carlotta is a great cook, Marco too, and you get to taste good wine. The work is rewarding and you have a lot of free time afterwards and on weekends. It is a very nice quiet location, and it is close to Tivoli. I couldn’t have asked for a better workaway experience, highly recommended 👍

Patrick, un chico muy chévere, muy flexible y listo para todo, muy divertido, paciente, muchas risas. Nos ayudó mucho en el riego y limpieza del campo, además en la cocina el fue muy colaborativo; y lo mejor ES UN MUY EXCELENTE JUGADOR DE FUTBOL. fuimos a jugar con un otro equipo y descontaba a todos los miembros del otro equipo muy fácilmente, un experto en fútbol. Exitos Patrick!

Claudia es una chica conversadora y muy amigable, nos ayudó mucho en la cosecha del choclo, su irrigación y limpieza. En casa también nos ayudó a cocinar y siempre mantuvo la casa limpia y organizada. Ella hizo muchas caminatas con los demas, un grupo genial Claudia es una artista, dibuja muy precioso, además nos ayudó con las clases de ingles con los niños!

I really enjoyed my four weeks with Michiel and Claire. Claire's food was excellent and almost always prepared with fresh vegetables from the garden. The tasks were very varied, sometimes in the garden, sometimes in the house, and you could always change the task if it didn't suit you. Our group of six workers very quickly became a close-knit group and we had a lot of fun working, playing games together and spending time together in between. On our days off, we also had time to go on short trips to Ghent and Paris. The bus and train connections are very good and Claire and Michiel are always offering a lift to train stations if they are travelling in the same direction. They also gave us great recommendations for travel. If you want to learn some French, you are also in good hands here. Claire is a fantastic teacher and the subject matter, the children's books of her daughters Fleur and Perle, captivated us more than the children on more than one occasion. Perle is also the happiest kid you'll ever meet und Fleur is so incredibly smart. They are really a joy to be around. Overall, it seemed to me that while work is naturally an important part of it, Michiel and Claire genuinely enjoy the company of the workawayers, and it felt like working and living with friends.

i dont know where to start, Emma and Rob are the best hosts you can dream of. i've been at the Farm a few months and it's been the best experience of my life so far. The animals, the people, the nature around make it a safe place you don't want to ever leave ! A true place of peace, Emma & Rob are also keen on helping us discovering Tasmania and its culture ! from the wharf concert every friday to evenings listening or playing music, the everyday life is rythemed by music and happiness ! A whole philosophy of life i'll try to keep forever i can only recommand you to go there and bring your stone to the palace of harmony that Emma & Rob are building ! you can only leave this place happier (& taller according to Robbie) than you've ever been ! "Believe"

I spent 2 weeks with Maren, Gerhard and Levi and it was a very good time! They live in a beautiful and quiet place with a fantastic view. Their pets are very lovely and funny and of course I loved the organic vegetables from the neighborhood, avocado and mango groves all over the area. Maren and Gerhard are very kind and helpful! Everything went the way it was communicated beforehand. My job was helping with household, gardening, sometimes making dinner and babysitting. Levi is a very nice, charming curios little boy, highly intelligent! Everything was great for me, except for the weather. After all, there hasn't been such a cold, rainy January for many years. Despite this, I was able to see many beautiful things in the area and in Malaga. Maren, Gerhard and Levi thank you for the chance to stay with you and I hope to see you again, perhaps soon in Budapest!

I stayed with Kathrin twice, each time for about a month, and it was truly a meaningful and enriching experience. My daily tasks included cleaning the horse stalls, walking the dog, household cleaning, cooking, shopping and supporting wherever needed. The work is clear and fair, but it does require physical strength, especially when working in the stables. Being prepared for hands-on, active work is important – and at the same time very rewarding. Working with the horses was particularly touching for me. They are gentle, loving animals, and it was beautiful to feel their trust and to move confidently around them. They have a special place in my heart. Gittli is a very pleasant and well-balanced dog. Once you know where to be attentive, walking her becomes a true joy. What I valued most was the atmosphere in Kathrin’s home. I felt so comfortable that it truly felt like being at home. We laughed often, shared light moments, and also had meaningful and deeper conversations. Kathrin is open-minded, speaks honestly and listens with interest. She looks for solutions and offers support in a calm and constructive way. Living and working there felt balanced: responsibility, structure, physical activity and genuine human exchange. I am grateful for the trust and the time we shared. I warmly recommend staying with Kathrin to anyone who enjoys animals, practical work and respectful, open communication.

It was truly a pleasure to have Amanda staying with us for 10 days. During her time here, she helped with a variety of tasks, many of them winter-related, and she always said yes with a smile. She carried wood for the chimney many times, helped clean and tidy several rooms in the house, took care of keeping the goats warm and well fed, assisted me with drawing and painting, and even did some gardening toward the end of her stay. Amanda is a true angel — always smiling, kind, and incredibly helpful. She never complained about anything and was always open to cooperation and ready to support wherever she was needed. She constantly asked what she could do next and showed great willingness and initiative in everything she did. She is a warm, sympathetic, and easy-going person, and I fully recommend her to any future host. I sincerely hope she will be deeply respected and appreciated wherever she goes in life. God bless you, Amanda.

I stayed here for about two weeks and did have a good time. Robin was away on a holiday so I was alone with Miriam. We had nice conversations and I got a bit of an inside view of the irish life and culture! As well as improving my English skills and adding new words to my vocabulary! The work was quite physical outside with gardening (mulching, weeding, cutting back trees/bushes, pushing wheelbarrows, bringing in fire wood), but I enjoyed the time and got to learn new skills. Working hours: 10am - 4pm (1h break) A pity was that Miriam was sick the most time of my stay, so unfortunately we didn't get to work together at all. So the working hours could be a bit lonely on that regard - I listened to an audiobook which helped. I had some company in form of the three dogs they have, who are absolutely adorable! Also enjoyed going for a walk with them. One thing is that the house is quite old, not very good isolated and poorly soundproofed which at times could be a bit uncomfortable -> but! They're currently building a little cabin just for volunteers which is amazing! The next bus stop is 45minutes walk away or you can borrow a bike! If you have a car it's a perfect starting point to explore Co. Clare in your free time. Miriam made sure to invite me to some events she went to and also took me to the Galway market on Saturdays, which was really nice. I would come back next time in spring or summer to be able to really appreciate the flowers / garden in their full glory!

We loved having Carolyn and Aimée to stay. They did a fabulous job in the garden and cleaning the house. We are sorry they could not stay longer and would highly recommend them to other hosts . We enjoyed some long and interesting conversations around the dinner table. They are thoughtful, polite and friendly.
