Shieldaig
It is peaceful, beautiful and very happy. It is located in one of the most beautiful places in Wales. There are masses of wonderful walks and no large cities or major shopping areas. It is 2 miles from the beach which is often visited by dolphins and porpoises.
I live alone with a cleaner visiting once a week. i give all volunteers the freedom to do whatever they want but expect a positive involvement in community life.

Mi experiencia con Hywel fue inmejorable. Me senti comoda desde el momento en que llegue ya que el es muy amable y queria que lo pasemos lo mejor posible. La casa es preciosa y los alrededores son increibles, un paraiso en medio de la naturaleza. Sin duda voy a volver

I absolutely loved my experience her so much that I came back and plan to again! Hywel is an excellent cook and food is plentiful, the property is absolutely beautiful and Hywel knows everything you can imagine about the local culture and history here. The working hours are respected and he is happy to accommodate requests and scheduling. He will even take you on local tours. Awesome!

I had a lovely time staying with Hywell! He had lots of stories and such a beautiful area, the house is so cosy and inviting. I learnt so much and especially loved the cooking:))
The work was very enjoyable being outside and gardening with flexible times.

Hywel is a wonderful person with amazing life stories and a big heart. The work was easy and always clearly explained. I even learned how to mow the lawn with his cute little tractor—which was a highlight!
His two lovely and well-behaved dogs made everything even better. He also took us to visit nearby towns and showed us some cool local spots.
Thank you, Hywel, for making us feel so welcome—we truly felt at home!

Had a fantastic week with this host! His cooking was amazing and always available, and we loved his movie picks and fascinating stories. He was super generous with rides and even gave us a tour of nearby towns. The work was light—just some gardening and chores—and we enjoyed every minute, especially hanging out with his two adorable dogs. Highly recommend!
