Glenreasdale House

A warm welcome here in this historical house, lots going on in this arty place. I have had amazing reviews on Workaway, which sadly is not working now in the UK. I love the cultural exchange when people stay from allover the world.

Just me and the people that I teach, all my fiends who call in regularly. I am a working artist and printmaker, taking inspiration form the local environment. This is an eco friendly house and garden.

I loved my time with Karen at Glenreasdale house! She is so kind and welcoming, such a great teacher of all things art and house keeping and gardening, and always encouraging. The work was very doable and you have lots of flexibility. I felt so cared for and will miss my time here tremendously (especially watching Antique Roadshow and Masterchef). I would recommend for anyone looking for a calm and relaxing experience! Thank you Karen!!!

Karen is really a very kind, cheerful and inspiring woman.
She works hard to make sure we have the best experience in your home.
They were very special days, where I could connect with people and the local culture, besides knowing incredible landscapes in this country that won my heart.
I really recommend this experience!
Thank you, Karen! I am gonna miss you 🌷

I really enjoyed my stay with Karen :) All the time I was surrounded by calm, good energy and creativity. Karen is an incredible and very kind person! She was always keen to show me new places and share a recipe or a book :) House is beautiful too, with a warm and sunny kitchen. I particularly loved the view from my room. Usually I would help around the house or in the garden. I am very grateful for this experience since I got a chance to see breathtaking parts of Scotland and learn from someone as wonderful as Karen :)

Karen is one of the sweetest and most wholesome human beings I have met. Spending time with her was an absolute treat. Her house is spectacular and cozy, and I deeply enjoyed my time here. She took me to several wonderful places when the weather was nice. The work was easy, flexible, and enjoyable. I had a lot of time to work on my personal projects after work and travel around Scotland during my free days. Life here was slow and peaceful and it was the perfect place to recharge.
