My experience was very good. I stayed for a month and it's a great place—peaceful and relaxing. You get to meet different volunteers and guests from all over the world. The work is good, and you have plenty of free time. A great experience, I definitely recommend the place.

I absolutely loved it here! I only met Andrea a few times, but he was very nice. Rudy is in charge here, and he was amazing! The work was easy, and I met a lot of cool people. We're right next to the Giant's the hostel, which is really cool! You can see the sunset every day from the hostel. It's about a 40-minute walk into town, but there's also a bus stop very close by. I had a lot of fun here! It was a really great start to my volunteer experience!

This experience was magical ! The place is gorgeous, the work is light and Rudy is absolutely welcoming and flexible person. I've got to know a lot of people , both guests and volunteers and to explore Ireland, which matched and surpassed my expectations. The work is really flexible and in your days off you can plan trips all over the island without problem . Besides, as the hostel is not huge, the work is not heavy at all and there's plenty of time for exploring the area. If you are looking for a calm experience, far from everything and close to the nature, this is the experience for you !

My experience at the hostel was incredible! The hostel is a welcoming place, ideal for those seeking peace and tranquility. I recommend exploring the local attractions: Giant's the hostel, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, Dunluce Castle, The Dark Hedges, Ballintoy Harbour, White Park Bay, Bushmills Distillery, and the town of Portrush. André and Jacey are wonderful people, attentive and always willing to help! It was an enriching experience in every way! ❤️

The location is right next to the Giant's the hostel and a little beach that is absolutely lovely. However, public transportation is expensive, and it's about a 45-minute walk to the nearest town, so the location is a bit isolated. The hours and tasks were very easy, and you get lots of days off to explore. The only downsides were that the volunteers stayed outside in a shed that had lots of spiders and very bad mattresses. Additionally, while working, I often felt micro-managed and mildly uncomfortable.
