We had such an amazing time with Vicki and Ross. The house we stayed in was beautiful with stunning views across the farm. The helping hours were very fair and never got boring. As my girlfriend and me were both really interested in the farm, Vicki and Ross took time to explain a lot and we were also able to help a bit with the animals. In our… read more

The meals were pretty good. Modern kiwi farm style. We were very well fed.
The accommodation was nice - we got to wake up to sheep and cows wandering past our cottage, which was amazing (very New Zealand). It was fairly private and quiet.

Best workaway experience so far!
It was great to spend time with this happy-lovely family. Vicki and Ross are very friendly and welcoming, I felt at ease right away. I recommend them to anyone who wants to have some gardening or farming experience. They took time to show me how to sheer a sheep or tag a calf and they provided guidance for the… read more

It such a shame, for me, to not put a feedback before. I spend a wonderful time with Vicky and Ross family. Jobs are various, the accommodation is amazing (big room with your own bathroom) and very sunny, the food is delicious. They make me feel like a member of their family and I share really good moment with them.

We had a a good time staying with Vicki, Ross and the family :)
The accmodation and landscape was beautifuland the food was delicious! We did a variety of jobs and also learnt some new skills. The family is quite busy, so we didn't get to spend much time with them, but we still had a great time. Thank you for your generous hospitality ! :)
