We only spent two weeks with Albert because we had things to do later, but the experience was amazing. He showed us around, he was always willing to help and to have interesting conversations with us. The surroundings are peaceful and really beautiful, the animals are lovely and Albert is a really nice person. We are looking forward to being back… read more

Emily was a wonderful person. She is very easy going, can be told what needs doing and can just be left to get on with it. The added bonus is she likes making cakes :). Emily you are welcome to come back any time.

I had a wonderful experience staying with Albert for my two short weeks. I felt very comfortable and at home in his lovely chateau and learning the history of the area was awesome. The work was never too much and he is very patient, especially when teaching me how to use the tractor hah! I enjoyed feeding the horses and sheep and cooking together… read more

First of all, sorry for the delay. I've spend two weeks with Albert and his friendly animals last summer. That was an amazing experience and Albert is such a great host. He always made me feel like home. I shared the experience with two others girls (greetings to Anna and Lola if you're reading this!) and I enjoy every minute there. All the… read more

Antes que nada, me gustaría agradecerle a albert por habernos recibido, no una vez si no dos veces! Viaje con dos amigas y Albert mostró siempre ser un anfitrión increíble, amable, amigable y siempre pensando en nuestra comodidad.

I spent two weeks at the chateau and I had a great workaway! The work was fair, the guests were interesting and the area was absolutely gorgeous that I couldn't stop taking pictures. If you like animals, they were always around the grounds so you can also always get close to them to pet or feed - the sheep, the miniature horses and Anna the most… read more

Bárbara is a kind, caring and responsible young lady. She performed all tasks from painting to planning and organizing my birthday party to perfection. Most importantly she would just do what was needed from cleaning the kitchen, feeding the animals and cooking the most delicious Brazilian dinners, not just for us, but for dinner parties too. … read more

I spent two months at the Chateau with Albert, and it was the best experience ever! I'm brazilian so it was very dificult for me just to trust and go so far by myself. But I'm sure that I never grew and learned so much like I did these two months. Albert is very kind, helpful, and make me fell part of his family. I have only good things to say… read more

I spent 4 weeks at Alberts and had a great time. He is a very kind and generous person. The work varied from day to day (garden work, cleaning, making beds, preparing breakfast and dinner for guests, doing stuff for the website, helping with the animals and so on) and was not too hard. Albert introduced me to a lot of his friends and locals and… read more

We spent three weeks at Alberts and it was great! This was our first workaway experience and we really enjoyed it. Albert was very welcoming, the work was not too demanding or difficult, and we felt very much at home.
