We stayed with Ali and her family for 2 weeks in August. They were so welcoming and made us feel at home. Nature around their house is stunning, so beautiful! They even took us on few "field trips" through Cairngorms....amazing! This was actually our first workaway experience. We are just sorry we couldn't stay longer and help Ali finish all the

Hannah was a lovely, friendly ray of sunshine and fitted in so easily and comfortably from day one. She was really good with the kids and both my boys took to her instantly. Hannah is fun to have around and so accommodating and adaptable. Welcome back here any time and would be an asset to any family she joins!

I spent 5 weeks with Ali Donnie and their beautiful boys. Ali is extremely welcoming and has a way to make you feel at home right away. If you get the chance to spend some time with Ali and her family you won't regret it.

This is a special lady! Aida was a joy to have and fitted in so perfectly and easily into our family.

Macy is an incredible person for her tender years. Intelligent, ambitious and very kind and supportive. Takes full initiative and goes ahead to help without the need to ask, and does extra along the way! She is fun, friendly, an excellent communicator and interested in differnt walks of life so fitted in perfectly. Kids loved her and so did we.

Trying to persuade this girl to take time off was hard, but she seemed to enjoy the experience and immersed herself completely in our days and outings. Cannot recommend her highly enough. Come back any time Macy!!!

Ali and Donnie are amazing. You feel like family, I extended my trip an extra week to continue to be a part of it and help out where I could. Ali is a superhero trying to do it all. She’s a super star mom with a wholesome approach. The two boys: rafe and maghnus are very sweet. Rafe is 5 and full of energy. He’s a curious boy who loves to be

The living area is remote but it’s in a national park so go for the mountain bike ride or hike or run. Seriously take the time to be in the nature and fully appreciate it. Ali works all around the area so you can sometimes go with her and explore neighboring villages while she works if weather and time permits. Ali and Donnie are great about recommending some nice spots and sharing the culture and their history of the place. You can learn a lot from both. They do really try to take care of you.
Your number one job is child care with mainly maghnus everything else is extra and that’s totally up to you, it helps Ali out to keep Maghnus happy and active. Rafe goes to primary school so a good portion of the week he’s out at activities or at school. Communicate if you need anything or want any tips on where to go.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Good Times with Ali and the boys.
This place is a writers dream. You follow the road running parallel to the river for eight miles to the lodge, with mountains either side. Perfect for star gazing.

I had a wonderful time staying with Ali and Donnie. Their home is located in an absolutely stunning spot in the hills, and they were both so kind and welcoming to me. For work I was primarily looking after their 15 month old and occasionally their 5 year old. Both are super sweet kids. Sometimes this would be at home, sometimes visiting farms with

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Lindrina & Jessica )
Jess has been with me for 2 weeks and instantly fitted in as part of the family. My boys love her and she is so accommodating on all I ask her to help with. She has humour and patience and is very kind with my young family. We have had a few unexpected circumstances happen (with a new workaway having to change plans suddenly and me ending up in
… read more hospital for a day and a half) and Jess stepped in to help quickly and without question. We have been lucky to have had her with us and I would recommend her to anyone. Jess is friendly, very personable and fun to have around. While there have been a few mix-ups due to the language differences, these have been very minor and have not detracted from our experience. Jess's English is good but at times I may talk too fast for her, so the problem was more with me being in a hurry! This lady will be a very helpful asset to anyone.

Alita (Ali) was with us for almost 3 weeks and what a great find she was. Instantly so willing to take on any task, kind, warm and friendly, and the boys loved her. She showed a lot of initiative to take on tasks and went the extra mile so doing more than was required of her. We really enjoyed Ali's company, she is so easy to get along with and we

While Ali's feedback on us was very explicit on the full routine morning to night, this was not all expected of her and it was made clear she was not required to do long hours but she willingly particiapted in helping after dinner and on some days off. A great first workaway experience for us...

Ali and Donnie are extremely kind, accomodating, and thoughtful people. They made sure I was comfortable, that there were always diet specific options for me in the house, and offered to drive and pick me up any place needed!
Ali has budgeted to pay £100/week. Most days we left the house at 8:30am and returned after 4pm and the boys were usually
… read more in bed between 7:30/8pm.
Most days are spent with Ali and baby Magnus, driving to her work locations/ meetings, and making sure the baby is taken care of during that time. Magnus is mostly a very calm and content little guy! We went on a many outdoor walks in parks and beautiful forests while his mum worked.
Rafe is at nursery weekdays and has different sports daily- so evenings were spent bringing him to his activities, getting home to help cook, watch the boys, get everyone fed, clean the kitchen, and help get them in bed: baths if necessary, brushing their teeth, changing, etc.
Rafe is very energetic and social! He can be quite demanding of Ali and gets upset when told not to do something. He is very playful and is learning to share with his baby brother.
Their home is out in the beautiful Scottish Highlands, down a bumpy dirt road, surrounded by nature. You have a nice private room and set of drawers downstairs. *Recommend bringing a pair of earplugs as the floorboards above head are quite creaky *
It is difficult for Ali, with all of the juggling she’s doing of childcare, working and daily driving, to keep the house tidy and organized. I only had time to tackle the kitchen and help sort some clothes/items to give away while I was there! She needs as much help as she can get!
They both drive to town daily, where there are regular trains / busses, so transportation is easy for weekends off to plan trips. They also generously offer their bikes if you want to cycle around the area. Recommend visiting Loch an T'seilich, just 2 miles nearby!
Beautiful, kind hearted people! Thanks for everything! Much loveSó é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Hi you all,
It's been an amazing two weeks with a lovely family. From the beginning Ali and his family made me feel at home. From Monday to Friday, my task was to help Ali with little Maghnus (he is lovely) in the mornings, either being at home or going to where she had to do her work.
Maghnus is a love with a lot of energy and it has been a

If you are interested in improving your English, you are an empathetic person and you are good at taking care of children, I definitely recommend spending time with this family. If I have the opportunity I plan to repeat with them.
I can only thank Ali and Donie for how kind they have been to me, all the places they have shown me, and for being able to enjoy that wonderful natural environment and share laughter with the little ones. I haven't had any dull moments.
Thanks a million for everything I learned :-) and this awesome experience
