Terry and Andy were lovely people. Working with the horses was a good experience. We were there on the winter and the work can be rough and physical some days. Terry provide us with boots and raincoats. You should be an animal lover to enjoy this experience. The shropshire hills can be far from big cities, so if you enjoy being around nature is good 😁

I don't know where to start. Terri and her lovely family became my second family away from home. From the very beginning they were caring and kind with me. I had my very own room, a nice bathroom and tons and tons of food hahah Andy is a wonderful chef, he cooks the nicest typical English dinner and the best puddings 😍 It is a lot of work, it is muddy in this time of year, but you get the chance to connect with the horses and I think that is priceless 🥹😍 all the people that work in the home were so nice and kind to me. It was an amazing experience and can't wait to come back 😍😊💞

Basicamente o trabalho é alimentar os cavalos, recolher o cocô e colocar água. Tem bastante cavalo então o trabalho é bem pesado. Alguns dias deu pra fazer tudo em 3h, mas na maioria dos dias que os cavalos estavam nos estábulos, eram 4:30h de trabalho só na parte da manhã. O trabalho é dividido em 2 turnos. Negociei com a host para trocar o turno ela foi flexível. O jantar é incluso e café da manhã e almoço você se vira com o que tem de comida. Andy (o marido da host), foi bem receptivo conosco, porém a host não. Não nos sentimos bem-vindos e diversas vezes ela nos tratou mal.

The work is heavy if there are few volunteers but if there are 4 it is faster. There are not many places to go to meet, the horses are very calm and Andy's dinners are delicious.

I lived four days of nightmare. the place is dirty, they wash the cats dishes along with the humans, everything is full of mud, the place is in the middle of nowhere and there is no Uber. the horses are fussy and the work is hard (i weigh 100lbs) you're basically going to clean up horse shit and do whatever else is on Terri's mind. the only good meal that exists is dinner, breakfast and lunch are leftovers. Terri is disrespectful, she said I should be ashamed of myself for quitting volunteering, she yells at the volunteers and the horses. people are afraid of her.

Esse voluntariado foi um lindo presente! ❤️ Ter contato com tantos animais foi uma experiência que me fez muito bem e vou me lembrar pra sempre com muito carinho. Eu achei o trabalho um pouco cansativo, porém foi uma delicia estar perto dos cavalos, que são uns amores (já estou com saudades 🥹 hahah) Terry e família me receberam super bem e são muito gentis. Os jantares são sempre deliciosos. A localização é ótima, pois fica perto de uma estação de trem, possibilitando viajar para outras cidades nos dias de folga. Super recomendo 🥰

Terry is very patient in explaining tasks even when you make mistakes, and his family are AWESOME people! I'm a digital nomad and I was able to work smoothly in my room after shifts. I had to leave earlier than I expected because of health issues, but I would really like to come back one day. Feeding the horses for the afternoon was a great time to breathe between my meetings. The room was very comfortable and Andy is a great cook. I learned about the horses' routine and more about their universes. It was a really fun experience. Thank you guys!

I had the best time at Highrove house. Everybody is extremely kind and they treat you as a part of their family. The work is physical but easy. Especially if you are a group of 3 or 4 people you are done pretty fast. All the animals are lovely and you will definitely learn a lot about them. Generally, I would highly recommend this experience. I can't wait to visit the whole Family on my next trip to the UK!

The people at the home are some of the most generous and wonderful people I've ever met. I felt like I was part of the family and ejoyed every single day. The work is rewarding and if you work together in a team it takes no time at all. All the animals are amazing! Andy is a wonderful cook (Chris is as well of course, but what else would you expect from a top tier chef :) Phili and Terri are a wonderful mother and daughter duo who are unbelievably knowledgeable. I highly recommend a stay at the home!

It have been one of the best experiences of my life! I didn't know the mean of "lovely" until I meet Terry:) I have been working with horses, Terry teached me all the tasks and she is pretty patient with you if you don't know to speak english completly perfect. The work is easy and simply. It was strange the day that Terry didn't ask me If everything was okei and If I needed something, the whole family helped me in everything that they can, they are so kind, adorable and attentive I really wish to come back as soon as me possible Thank you truely for everything Terry!
