Volunteering at Dingup House was a rewarding experience. Chris is warm and welcoming, and we had many intriguing conversations. She’s built a successful business with dedication, and it shows.

Lola, her lovely dog, is trusting and well-trained. The house is cozy, the bed comfortable, and while the workload can be demanding, I still found time to recharge.

I especially enjoyed learning in the kitchen and the sense of community here. It’s a great place for those willing to put in the effort.

Thanks, Chris, for your kindness and a memorable stay!

I volunteered at dingup house for a little over a month and it has truly been the most special experience. I learnt so much and I am now determined to have a little veggie garden and chickens of my own one day:)

Chris is so wonderful and welcomed me into her home so kindly. We took her grandsons on holiday, visited lots of her lovely friends, attended her fitness classes and went on some amazing day trips together.
I will miss having Chris to watch I’m a celeb with every evening!!!
I highly recommend for volunteers to come here, it will be nothing short of incredible💗 Thank you Chris xxx

Chris is a very experienced woman who is working hard! She supported us during our stay and was understanding when i made mistakes in e.g. housekeeping. You can surely learn a lot and have fun but you also need to be flexible!

We felt welcomed from the day we arrived. Although there were some issues with arrival/departure dates, we tried to stay flexible and support Chris in her decisions. In the end, everything worked out well.
We were lucky to get the chance to visit the Truffle Kerfuffle Festival and met some chefs who stayed at Chris' BnB. During our stay we got in touch with many different kind of guests and could practice our English. We enjoyed socializing and getting to know the Australian culture through exchange with guests who stayed there.
Chris is doing her job with love and passion!

Chris and Shane made me feel welcome the day I arrived.
The work varies everyday a little bit and you get a lot of free time to take some time for yourself and explore around.
They took me to see all different amazing places and meet a lot of people.
For me it was my first time traveling overseas and I could not have started my travels in a better place😊
They are my Aussie family now and I will 100% be back!
