Unfortunately we did not have a good experience with camila. She was was not able to do simple tasks no matter how much we tried to explain things to her, she seemed disinterested. The main problem was the complaints from the other volunteers that they did not want to share a room with her because her personal hygiene was very bad. We tried to help her but the situation did not improve so unfortunately we had to ask her to leave early to respect the other volunteers who shared a room with her.

The two owners Katie and Johnny were pleasant to speak to mostly The standards are high which I very much respected The work was more than agreed as theres multiple laundry to do after the rooms which goes on into early evening Starting at 11am so it turns into a long day To be fair I enjoy laundry though I could recognise it went over the 5 hours and instead of appreciating the effort I was putting in I was made to feel that somehow I was doing something wrong It says three meals a day though the food was very basic and didnt last the full week I asked for more but was turned down

I loved my time in York with Johnny, Katrin & one other volunteer. The city is beautiful and the work was easy enough with plenty of time to explore the city or nearby towns. We shared a private space in one of the rooms with two single beds and a kitchen which was perfect and Katrin and Johnny were really good at regularly communicating what needed to be done. I'd highly recommend!

It was an exceptional experience with Catherine and Johnny Johnny and their charming daughter. We were able to share many wonderful moments around dinner. I was also able to improve my English and discover some wonderful new places around York. The location is great for going out and sightseeing. Everything is within walking distance and the city is really beautiful.

My first Worldpackers experience was fantastic! Katrin and Johnny were wonderful hosts who always made sure I was comfortable. They gave me great tips for exploring York and nearby cities. I loved playing with their daughter Emily, and baby Louisa is adorable. The work was simple, and I had plenty of time to explore the city. The guest house was conveniently located near the train station and city center. I had an incredible time thanks to them. I highly recommend this experience.

My experience with Katie and Johnny was incredible! They are kind and attentive and made me feel at home! The tasks are mostly housekeeping and helping with painting the witches' new house. Johnny does an impressive job as a carpenter! Working hours are as agreed and you often work less than 5 hours a day. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to help a family that is running their own business and enjoy getting to know York and nearby cities! The Guest House is super well located! In a 15 minutes walk you will be at the train station and in 25 minutes in the city center!

My time with Jonny and Katy was really healing and exciting as a first time solo-traveller. I felt comfortable within their home, got to know their family, and connected with the girl with whom I shared the room. The work is incredibly reasonable and I even got to help with some construction, which was really nice after losing a lot of my tool access after graduation from university. They taught us some traditional games, we ate at their house weekly, and they had great suggestions for what to do in York. York is very beautiful, calm, and full of local culture. Thanks to them both!

Thank you for everything! It was a great experience, I enjoyed having a nice space to sleep shared with Cintia (another lovely volunteer). The room had a private kitchen and laundry, so it was like a tiny apartment. The working hours were perfect and the work was at least for me, easy. Katrin and Johnny were open and friendly people, Emily was a lovely kid, I had a nice time with this family. My fav room was the Witches, lovely theme room, that makes you feel like a real witch! Best energy guys!

It was my first time volunteering and it couldn't have been better. Johnny, Katrin and Emily were very kind and friendly from the moment I arrived. The work is easy and you do it in the morning, which allows you to have the afternoon free. Everything was very nice, I would recommend this stay 100%, thanks for the good vibes.

Katrim and Johnny are very kind and considerate hosts. They are a beautiful family. They care about making me feel comfortable and happy. I had my own room and kitchen with everything I needed. Work is always in the morning, some days easier than others, you can finish early and have the afternoon to enjoy York. It is a small but veeeery charming city, have history, parks and nice walks. I was able to visit nearby cities by bus and train. In general the Yorkshire area is very beautiful.
