La Masia Alt Penedes

We offer volunteers the opportunity to be within easy reach to the small town charm of Spain but completely immersed in nature and only 1 hour from Barcelona city.

We are a husband and wife running a rural tourism venue at our 17th century masia. We have three lovely dogs we like to take on long strolls through the vineyards. We enjoy the simple pleasures of country living, open fires, home cooking and most of all the peace and quiet with a sprinkle of birdsong.

We stayed at La Masia Alt Penedès for two weeks and had a great first volunteering experience. Sophie and Michael were very kind and always checked on us (you can see how much effort and love they have put into the place). The work was hands-on (organizing, painting, gardening, change a fence, cleaning) and well explained. Food was provided, and the guest house was amazing. The town is very quiet, but overall it was a great experience and we’d love to come back in summer.

I wish I could write a longer review, but honestly this place was incredible and we truly enjoyed every moment here.

Had a great experience here. If you are looking to get away from city life and stay somewhere immersed in nature, then this is the place. Very calm and beautiful place to reset.

Our stay at La Masia Alt Penedes was so magical. We worked on very tangible and creative projects - specifically gardening and landscape design, we worked 2 weddings which was fun and I did some social media stuff which was a breeze because the grounds are so beautiful. I can’t recommend this stay enough. The region was beautiful and Sophie was very social able and went out of her way to be friendly, generous and show us some local restaurants. We also loved the puppies :)

Was lovely to have you both. I am sorry about the ant problem but great idea from Chris until the bug guy comes with his magic potion. It should be sorted soon. Hope you have fun travels in the south x

La experiencia fue hermosa, la Masia es un lugar soñado. Con mi novio ayudamos a renovar una zona del jardín y fue muy agradable ver el antes y después. Sophie siempre nos trató con respeto y amabilidad, Michael nos llevó a conocer caminos y recomendó lugares a donde ir. Hay transportes públicos para poder manejarse y conocer lugares independientemente.
Recomiendo este voluntariado y espero que podamos volver muy pronto <3
