I had a good time working at this project, the hosts were very friendly and welcoming and I was lucky enough to enjoy some lovely home cooked meals during my stay.

I had a good time working here! The host family is very nice. The cooking was great and it was a nice way to meet other travelers. This was a good first Worldpackers experience for me overall.

I had a wonderful experience at the home. From the hosts to the volunteers to the locals, everybody I met made an unforgettable impact. Raymond and Ilaria truly made the villa feel like a home away from home, so much so I ended up staying an additional week. The work is tiring but definitely doable and is rewarded with Ilarias incredible cooking. Highly recommended.

Despite the fact that this has been my fifth experience it doesn't mean that it's been less challenging or interesting than the previous ones, totally the opposite... I never imagined having transformed an unexploited area into an amazing and unique garden also carefully preserving its natural elements. Added to this, both Raymond and Ilaria his wife are super respectful and polite with spontaneous smiles always ready to make feel everybody quite comfortable. There's another relevant aspect to be mentioned: Ilaria prepares the best Italian food I've ever tasted.

No fue lo que esperaba, a pesar de que nos advirtieron que no había calefacción las instalaciones fueron bastante precarias, en términos de limpieza era bastante sucio y para 9 personas que fuimos en un momento había solo un baño que se podía ocupar, lo que era bastante incómodo. El lugar es muy alejado y no es fácil acceder a buses para ir a pueblos para conocer, por lo que los días libres no había mucho que hacer. Además había una voluntaria ilegal que constantemente hizo la experiencia cada vez más desagradable, hablaba a las espaldas de otros y daba órdenes que no le correspondían.

I would stipulate that we left you the apartment in a spotless condition. It is up to the helpers to maintain their areas clean.
There are actually 2 bathrooms, though it seems no-one wanted to use the shower in the bathtub in the second bathroom.
As far as the heating, the living room was constantly at a minimum of 20º. I checked with you every 2 days, asking if the bedroom was OK, to which you always replied yes.
I had offered that you move the bed into the living room before you arrived, but since you insisted that you were comfortable, that was not necessary.

There were actually 7 helpers during one of the weeks using the 2 bathrooms, including yourselves.
All the rooms have their own bathrooms, but due to a broken pipe we asked the helpers in one wing not to use their bathrooms.
You would have had your own bathroom if it was not for the fact that we allowed 2 helpers to stay an extra 10 days, as their host contracted covid, and another helper asked to stay an extra week. Otherwise there would have been 2 people per bathroom.
If you had a problem, you should have communicated. I constantly asked to check everything was OK. I believe what people tell me, and am not clairvoyant

Las primeras semanas todo bien pero gracias a lourdes (una voluntaria que está de ilegal) todo empezó a decaer, el lugar no es maravilloso pero tampoco terrible, solo que ella se cree la dueña de casa y hace que el ambiente sea desagradable hablando a las espaldas de todos

To start, Raymond's property was very beautiful and surrounded by lush nature. We were excited to read that it was an old property once owned by the Templar in the 1350's. The guest house we stayed in definitely showed it was built back then, and was not the cleanest. We aren't picky, but even for us, it was hard to stay there. Although we were curious about the history of the land, we weren't given much information. Lastly, it was too secluded for us. We want to add that Ilaria's (the wife) cooking was phenomenal. 10/10
