I truly enjoyed my time here. It was my first experience volunteering and it couldn't have been a better fit for me. The family is the kindest, most welcoming and always ready to help - it was a real pleasure getting to know them! The place is amazing, lots of opportunities to visit other cities such as Trento, Bologna and Venice and Mantova itself is such a lovely town - especially when taking the bike to sit by the lake! A fantastic experience that I can warmly recommend. I hope to come back one day:))

Really lovely experience! Felt very welcomed and nice environment to work in and be around. Really good communication and felt very valued as a volunteer. Great experience to learn a bit about hospitality and Italian culture. A lovely opportunity to meet lovely people and lovely fellow travellers. Definitely recommend also a fantastic position to see a lot of Italy very easily and a great way to learn Italian. A very inspiring experience and lots of lovely memories. Also, the farm is in a very calm and tranquil area which is very grounding and Mantova which is very close is stunning!

This is a beautiful place for disconnected, , you have a comfortable room and a kitchen with everything you need to cook , you should know that these are not vacations, you have many benefits but in exchange you must work the agreed hours with a lot of dedication , it is a very demanding job since perfection is expected of you and you must know how to work under pressure ,but Bea is always looking out for you to have what you need, she and his brother are very good people, they always help me with everything. is in Mantova, with good conextion for go to venice, verona, Bolzano etc thanks!!

The farm is a very beautiful, cozy countryside family hotel! You feel like a member of Italian family! The hosts are very kind and supportive. All tasks are clear, you should be ready to learn doing many different things for a hotel business.

My time at the farm was beautiful. I stayed for five weeks and during those weeks I was welcomed wholeheartedly into their home by Bea, Luca and their family. We had amazing meals, learnt so much about the italian language, I cycled around the area which is ripe with nature and such beauty and was able to visit many places with another volunteer which also added to the experience making a new friend! The work is easy when you get the hang of it with some busy mornings, I enjoyed it! Be prepared to work responsibly, the whole experience and people I will never forget. Grazie mille :)
