Trakehnerhof Rehfeld

Traveller can learn about the traditional simple life on the rural countryside. Improve handling horses and dogs.
Of course, improve / learn the German language (I speak dialect-free). Knowledge of handling horses and fluent English are necessary. You can enjoy the rural life, learn about horse- and dog breeding and have fun learning about our way of life together with people from different countries.

You live with us, as a part of the family. Our lifestyle is simply rural and open and we value an honest friendly and respectful live together.

Gerlind was a wonderful host. She was genuine in that you rarely wondered how she felt or what she thought, and I appreciated that immensely. My two months in Rehfeld were structured. In terms of the tasks; they were all rather simple and spaced out through my day. Gerlind was patient with the learning process. There was a lot to remember. Two weeks is often needed to find your rythm. I wish I had come with a better grasp of the language. Gerlind is close to fluent in English, but she is largely the exception. Life in Rehfeld is simple. It required adjustment but was worth it. I loved it!

My stay in Rehfeld was extraordinary! Gerlind is one of the most intelligent and interresting people I’ve ever met. Its true, the way I lived there was WAY out of my comfort zone but she made it so nice and easyer to love. I must say it is a SIMPLE life there, text me for details. The food was definitely something I needed to adapt to. High on carbs, low on protein for modern standards but its also good for the type of life you have there. Gerlind loves German, Russian and other nations traditional foods so it really is a gastro tour trough nations country dishes which I enjoyed so much!

Edith is a lovely girl: positive, smiling, flexible, and nature-loving. She is very polite and respectful, with a wide range of interests—we had many good conversations. She was a great asset to our horse care team and learned the essential skills in a short time, always with great kindness and attention to the animals. I highly recommend Anya for any experience, as I believe she is smart, a quick learner, and able to adapt well to even simple living conditions! I hope we see each other again!

The animals are what make the experience worthwhile. But the host was problematic. I only stayed for a week out of the whole period planned. On the first day she said she was afraid I wouldn't adapt, and on the second day she told me that my energy wasn't right, without even giving me the chance to adapt to the place. She doesn't like to be contradicted or to have her opinions disagreed with. She considers the volunteers to be servants. No WIFI and no signal. If you don't leave for another city, you have to work without a day off. No sources of protein at lunch and breakfast is just cereal.

I had a really interesting experience. The place and animals are beautiful and if you are looking for a place to be far far away from society, this is where. I learnt a lot about horses and dogs! Also about this peoples lifestyle and myself. The work hours are respected. You need to know about horses.
But, I wouldn’t recommend this place if you aren’t from or used to the countryside. Because you will be expected to act and know things from there and if you don’t, they will ask you to leave. Also they aren’t easy people to be around, you will need to be incredibly flexible and open to fit in.

I stayed on the farm for three weeks and it went by way too quickly. Gerlind is a lovely person with such a kind heart, and you can see she really cares for all her animals so well (horse experience is definitely needed) . The work hours and tasks are very reasonable and easy. Working a couple hours a day and plenty of time to rest, chill out, and explore the nearby towns. I would recommend this experience to animal (especially horses) and nature lovers who want some time to disconnect from city life and see the beautiful German countryside.
