We are looking for a couple for a couple of weeks arriving end of April 2024. We can be flexible on dates. We will be pruning olive trees, clearing brambles and logging wood for winter.

Hello everyone
Our location is beautiful with just a 10 minute walk to the local town which has a huge square and a good number of shops, restaurants and cafe's.
We are also only 1 hour from Florence, Lucca and Pisa, so plenty of opportunity to do some great sightseeing.

if you end up staying with Sue make sure you get the whole house to horse race... you really don't want to miss out!
Sue - thank you for opening your home to me and treating me like yours! I'll… read more
Sue is an amazing person, we learnt about each other's lives and became good friends. She welcomes you into her home and cares for you like family.
We were there with three other workawayers and the six… read more
We had one day together where I explained that I needed wood chopped and brambles cleared. Both hard manual tasks and in August!
I came home to find that they had done everything asked of them, and more. Plus the house was spotless.
Thank you again Marton and Kasia. You did a fabulous job.
It was quite a unique setting as she left with her sons (needless to say, lovely guys) for holiday and we were in full charge of her place, which is certainly one of the loveliest house we have been to. Therefore we didn't have much time to spend together, but I can surely tell she is caring, experienced,… read more

I did different and interesting kinds of work for example strimming, cutting wood with the chainsaw and I drove the tractor. At every moment I felt welcomed and you could talk about everything. We had a really fun time together and we had good conversations as well.

A brilliant couple with a fantastic attitude who got on with everything I asked them to do.
I was on holiday at the time and they did everything I asked, worked neatly and tidily and it was amazing to come home to everything done.
I cannot thank you both enough.
Safe travels and I really hope our paths cross again.

He arrived and we all immediately liked him. He fell into our routine like he had always lived in our house. As Rod states, travelling is about meeting people and hosting is the same and what an awesome person to meet.
Rod worked so hard, he built stairs to our old chestnut… read more
This was mine and Baileys first workaway, and based on the time we had at Pescia it wont be our last. The work was reasonable, it helped me brush up on my building skills and the groundswork exhausted Bailey but this… read more
From the moment they arrived they were friendly and helpful, always offering assistance with whatever I was doing.
They worked hard and started at 7.30 each morning. Bailey bought lots of wood down our olive terraces, stacked it in the barn and then set about… read more
They approached the work here with such a great and honest attitude. It mattered to them that the work I needed to completed got done. Not only this, they did absolutely everything with a huge smile and a lot of laughter.

I had a great time working on their farm, brilliant food and company, they made me feel right at home. All the best.
We stayed in the bell tent on top of the hill and we loved our temporary home. The view was amazing, the hammocks were perfect and the outdoor shower was great after a hot… read more
Take care.
They were my first ever hosts and what an introduction!
The house is a beautiful 'weathered' tuscany building situated in the fabulous mountains of Pescia.
They are the proud owners of an impressive organic vegetable garden, stretching practically the entire length of the bottom… read more

Not only is Jules a great cook, he also knows loads about vegetables and these two worked really hard digging our veg patches and planting it out..
Michelle also helped big a chicken enclosure and this was built out of things left around the farm. She happy cut up old wire in rain and… read more
We have recently fulfilled a great ‘Workaway’ experience with Sue, Chris and the boys. They are a kind and welcoming young family who epitomise what ‘Workaway’ is all about! I can strongly recommend them to couples and singles alike.
Based in Pescia (Tuscany) near Luca, they have purchased and are renovating a wonderful hillside farm, olive… read more
