Kurrebo Hostel, Café & Plantschool

It is one of the most beautiful places in south Sweden with an extraordinary lake at the edge of our property. It is a perfect balance between simple comfort and outdoor life in nature. A good place to contemplate, enjoy the peace maybe take a bike ride or have a swim, go for a hike or simply enjoy the view :) You can of course also spent time with other volunteers, play games in the evening or enjoy meals together.

We are a large group of friends that are open minded with the intention to create a place were you can be yourself, in the perfect balance between work and leisure time. We strive to enjoy life fully – open for new, work hard, laugh loud, cry if you need, love with all you have, be free. You will share all the spaces, we will show you around, always available and happy to help and then it is up to you what you make out of it.

kurrebo is truly a beautiful place. the lake, flower garden and view from the yellow house are gorgeous! the rooms for the volunteers were way bigger than expected (i thought the rooms on the pictures were guest rooms) & the staff house with living space, art supplies and kitchen is very cozy. the work was comparable to any restaurant/cafe job i’ve had in the past (in the netherlands). the staff is really kind & involved!! i personally loved the shared lunches/dinners, my little bike rides and reading/arts & crafts with a view on the lake :)

I had a wonderful time at Kurrebo. Lia and all of the team were there if we needed anything. The tasks varied and were explained very well. Working hours are reasonable and leave time to enjoy the beautiful nature around and spend time with the other volunteers.

I highly recommend working at Kurrebo!

The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming and always willing to help. My tasks varied, from assisting with food preparation and chopping vegetables to doing the dishes. The kitchen team explained everything clearly and patiently.

One of the best parts of the experience was having our own space as the staff (including us volunteers). It gave us the chance to really get to know each other and connect. I spent lots of time with the other volunteers- watching movies, singing karaoke, swimming in the lake and exploring the beautiful surroundings.

This experience was the best I could’ve asked for. This was my first time volunteering and I really enjoyed it. The work hours were exactly as previously agreed, they were respected at all times. I liked how open everyone is and how easy it was to communicate any issues or preferences, that made everyone closer to the staff and was much appreciated. The place is just beautiful and truly feels like home, and everyone there is awesome and has an interesting life story. Thanks for everything!
