I love the experience. It is a nice place to really get away and focus on yourself and the nature around you. The work was easy and fun and we had a lot of free time to hike, go to the waterfall or the nearby town. Mariana and Pedro are super sweet and nice. I'm happy to have been here ✨️

Loved my stay with Pedro and Marina. Working with the horses in the beautiful mountains was really incredible. They are both very accommodating and if you ask them for something always try and make it work of possible. You are signing up for a remote mountain area tho, so as said before bring some books :) Thanks to everyone from the team 🌱

I had a very good experience at the farm. I came in a period when there weren't any guests, so it was quiet calm. The job was mostly in the morning : we had to clean the boxes, refill the water and bring some of the horses in the stables while others would be put on a closed pasture to let them eat all the day. In the evening, everybody was free in the fields. We lived (with another volunteer) in a caravan in front of the house. Mariana and Pedro were very kind and we could ask them all the questions we had in mind. If you enjoy animals and nature it is a good place to have a break.

I had 3 great weeks at the farm. The work was exactly what was communicated and the hosts were very nice and always there to help if we needed something. Plus the landscape around is absolutely beautiful. Make sure to bring a book or something as it is a very quiet, relaxing place :)

It was my first volunteering and I loved it. Mariana and Pedro where lovely, who always made sure that u have everything what u need. U can always come to them and ask if u are unsure about sth and they will explain it to u. You are going to live in a Caravan next to the stables. Most of the Work is in the Morning with cleaning the stables, catching horses and giving them Hay. So u gonna have a lot of Freetime. The stable are in the middle of the National Park so u will be surrounded from the Beautiful Natur of Portugal. Take some warm stuff with u! It can get quite cold during the nigh

This was my first volunteering experience and I had a great time at the farm !! Mariana and Pedro were amazing hosts who welcomed me and made me feel at home immediately. I had a lot of fun working with the horses, but also learnt a lot about how to take care of them and to manage the stables. The nature around the house is beautiful and the bakery in the village makes the best pastels de nata !! It was a great experience that I would recommend to anyone. Thank you again for welcoming me at your place :)

This was definitly my best volunteer experience so far. Loved the horses, dogs but most of all Pedro and Mariana. They were the sweetest and checked in constantly with the volunteers and they really cared even though they are very busy. I was able to ride twice which was amazing, the area is rural so the bigger town is 1 hour walking to get some food etc. But hiking in the area is definitly beautifull. The work is clear, cleaning the boxes, water, feeding, raking and sweeping. Conclusion is that this is an amazing experience, thank you Pedro and Mariana for everything and i hope to see you ❤️
