It's an idyllic picturesque place which Victor and Jackie have created and helped blossom over the years. They are very kind and open hearted people. Through the work that is to be done, through their knowledge and through their lived example one could learn a lot more then i had sofar in the few days i spent with them. I certainly hope to come… read more

Thank you Anne, for kindness, hospitality, for interesting conversations full of wisdom and great humour, for the delicious food and the chance to learn and share in the work. I certainly hope to visit again next year.

Niklaus planned to come for a few days. Then he came back. Each time my house was blessed, and so was my neighbor. I can"t thank him enough for his steady, clear way of doing a task, or suggesting improvements. And he works with such a generous heart that everybody is inspired and encouraged. Thank you Niklaus. Please come again. Om and Prem.

Thank you David, thanks for the opportunity to stay while I asked with such short notice, for the insights, for your hospitality and kindness, for the great food and inspiring company, for not just teaching yoga, but for living it, as a great example for me :)

Had a great time in the picturesque cottage. As a guest you can feel at home, learn about nature and culture. Andy also showed me the great surroundings and helped a lot in finding my way around in Scotland. Glad to have started my workaway experience there.

Niklaus Arrived after cycling a huge distance and immediately wanted to start to help. He’s a fantastic guy with many skills and can’t sit still, a credit to workaway and I expect to see many more great reviews from hosts as he cycles around Europe.
