At first, I was a little worried about having to speak English all the time, but as soon as I arrived, Scott and Laura made me feel at ease. Sometimes I didn't understand everything, but they were happy to repeat themselves so that I could understand better. During the day, we had to clean the boxes, the fields, feed the horses, sometimes repair

The region is also very beautiful to see, with cliffs that really allow you to discover a new country. I really enjoyed spending time with them. The animals are all adorable there, and I think I'm going to miss their dog Suzie a lot, because she was so loving! I was able to get back on a horse, which I had missed a lot, knowing that I had to give up horse riding because of my studies. I also got to ride on the beach, which was a first for me and something I will always remember!
I recommend this experience to all horse lovers, and thanks to Scott and Laura for this unforgettable month!

From the very beginning, I felt welcome and at ease. Staying at Scott’s and Laura’s place never really felt like work, but more like being part of the family and lending a hand. Laura and Scott are kind, funny, and always up for a good conversation or laugh. I genuinely enjoyed spending time with them.
The surroundings are beautiful, and both the

Laura and Scott also went out of their way to show me around the area. Craughwell is a peaceful place, yet still close to so many wonderful spots. I was able to fully immerse myself in the Irish culture and even made two amazing new friends along the way.
All in all, this was a 10/10 experience and one I’d wholeheartedly recommend to anyone.Dejado por el anfitrión para el workawayer (Pauline)
We had the absolute pleasure of having Pauline stay with us, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. She was an incredible help with our horses, shes reliable, gentle, and confident in handling them. She also took wonderful care of our dog, treating her like one of her own.
Pauline cooked delicious meals for us and always kept the house and

On top of all that, Pauline has a bubbly and kind personality that made her a joy to be around. She brought such a positive energy into our home and fit in with our family perfectly. We feel very lucky to have had her help and would welcome her back any time!

I had the pleasure of spending ten wonderful weeks from February to the end of April with Laura and Scott. From day one, they treated me like a family member and included me in all their activities, allowing me to experience a lot.

With their now eight horses, daily tasks such as feeding the horses, keeping the stables clean, repairing fences, and even building a whole field shelter for the new horses kept me busy. I also had the chance to take jumping lessons with one of their horses and go riding on the beach. Not to be forgotten is the loving and slightly chaotic dog Susie, who brought a smile to everyone’s face every morning with her enthusiastic greetings.
I miss the time with Laura and Scott since leaving them and would love to come back!Comentarios

I had the pleasure of staying with Scott and Laura and another workawayer for six weeks in April/May. It was truly such a wonderful experience, taking care of the horses, Susie and just being part of the slowed down life of Irelands Countryside. They are both welcoming, communicative and fun to talk to. I had my own room and bathroom which was a

Thank you so much for this experience:)

Truly the best Workaway experience one could ask for. I had the privilege of spending 3 months with two of the most wonderful people I’ve ever met, Laura and Scott. From the minute I arrived they were welcoming and genuinely made me feel at home. Day to day never felt like a chore and I looked forward to everyday helping care for the animals.
… read more Susie their adorable (and amusingly rambunctious!) dog and horses; Biscuit, Toni, Blue, Queenie, Lizzie, and Kingston, will forever hold a special place in my heart. Every day spent with these animals was a new adventure and the quiet moments I shared with them in the fields or stables gave me a deeper appreciation for the care and patience that goes into maintaining a farm and working with animals. Along with helping care for the animals I was truly appreciative of the opportunity to ride Biscuit out on hacks and in the ring she really is a special girl! Beyond the time spent with animals, the moments I shared with Laura and Scott were equally enriching. From preparing meals together, exploring Galway, visiting Dublin and other parts of Ireland, movie nights, and working out together I fully felt like I was included in everything and offered an unforgettable time experiencing true Irish life. I can’t express enough how much I appreciated their kindness, generosity, and the warm atmosphere they created in their home.
This experience was everything I hoped for and more and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a special and unforgettable Workaway opportunity. Thank you again Scott and Laura for everything❤️
We had the loveliest time in Ireland with Scott, Laura, Susie and the horses. It was honestly really hard to leave their gorgeous place in Ireland’s beautiful countryside, which was the closest to a home we’ve ever experienced outside our own four walls, after our 5 weeks of staying there. Scott and Laura are the kindest people, very warm and

Whether it was “work” outside with the horses, cooking and eating together or going on daytrips to explore Ireland, we always had the best time and there was not even a second when we really felt like working. Additionally, we got the chance to go on hacks around the area with two of their lovely horses, Biscuit and Toni, and got to ride even more in another barn nearby. In general, we can say that our time at Scott and Laura’s flew by and definitely felt way too short. We miss them, Susie, the horses and the friendly people of Ireland a lot and for sure would want to go back any time!
Thank you for everything Laura and Scott!

We never thought in knowing Ireland this way, and thanks to Scott and Tom we had the best experience abroad. They borrowed us two bicycles and we got lost in the beautiful Co. Galway, where you can find many castles, animals, huge fields, typical houses, lakes, among other things. We also had some swimming trips and also went to Galway city where

Scott and Tom are two wonderful, charismatic and friendly people. They made us feel like a member of their family, very comfortable. You can trust them and they will help you in everything. Not everyone is lucky enough to meet people as nice as they are, so all you have to do for them is to keep the house organized, general cleaning and of course cooking (they love it and they deserve it).
Scotty and Tom, you have become an important part of our lives. Thanks for all your kindness. We are very grateful to met both of you, and we look forward to meeting you again.Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

More than hosts, Scott and Tom have become a family to us. They are welcoming, warm, funny, friendly. Thanks to them we could discover the Connemara lake and the cliffs of Moher. We took care of Susie the dog and Bania the cat. Their house is incredible and very well located, we had at our disposal bicycles to walk around. Thank you so much Tom
