This is my second time volunteering with Glyn, Danny and Pancho and what a wonderful experience it's been. The tasks and hours are reasonable and shared cultural experiences with me on days off. This town has truly become a home away from home and I will miss everyone greatly!

First of all, I would like to thank you for the great experience and all the doors that volunteering has given me. Glynn and Danny are great people full of culture and history to share, Pancho is a lovely dog and the tasks are varied, the city is a quiet place with a beach nearby, ideal for those who want to live a typical experience of British life.

I absolutely love Glyn, Danny and Pancho! This has been the best Worldpackers experience I've had so far. I've extended this stay and will return again at the end of the year! From the beginning, they went out of their way to make me feel right at home. They are accommodating and reasonable with hours. The town and the locals are lovely. I highly recommend this experience! Little tip to win Pancho the chihuahua's heart: completely ignore him when you meet him. The more you try to make him like you, the less likely he will 😂

It has been such a pleasure to host you Feliz, I'm afraid you may have stolen Pancho's heart I'm actually a little worried! 😅 Danny and I have loved the joy you have brought into our lives.
Still we are now friends, and we're looking forward probably to spending Christmas with you!

It was our pleasure to host you Kaynã, you really have been one of the best working guests we have had, across all the platforms we've worked with! We are really looking forward to hosting you again later in the year, and I'm glad you found somewhere else locally in the meantime so we are seeing you regularly!

Glyn and Dan are so welcoming and truly want you to enjoy your time during your stay. They showed me around various towns in Devon and had me try various English foods. It is truly an experience I will never forget. The work hours are fair and the host accommodates the work to fit your strengths.

I don't know how to describe in few words the beautiful experience I had in this place. Glyn, Danny and their adorable chihuahua Pancho are really charming and loving, surely the best hosts you can find, they made me feel at home all the time. The room is super comfortable and the meals are delicious. I was very happy helping them and I really enjoyed my stay here, I will miss you and hope to see you again soon.

This volunteer exchange was amazing! Right off the bat when I arrived Glyn had tourist pamphlets and a map ready for me. The accommodation is beautiful and cozy and Glyn and Danny are so welcoming it almost felt like home. The work itself was great, a bit of cleaning but mostly I did Marketing for her holiday let. I am so so glad they loved my work as I designed a website for them & built up their socials— it made the 3day trip there {I was traveling from afar} completely worth it! I hope to see their business succeed and wish them all the best with Pancho and life and all<3 Andrea Paula

My stay with Glyn and Danny was fabulous! I felt at home as soon as I got there. They are both lovely people and Pancho is the coolest chihuahua. The town is beautiful and I felt comfortable and relaxed during my whole stay. Glyn and Danny ensured I had a cultural exchange experience and helped me make the most of my days in Teignmouth. The work was enjoyable and I was happy to be able to collaborate with Glyn in advertising their holiday let. My room was very nice and comfortable, and the food was always delicious. Thank you so much for having me! I look forward to seeing you again :D

It was a lovely experience! The city is slow paced and the tasks are not hard to manage.

I'm sorry you didn't feel your experience with us was worth a proper positive review Karen. We were generous, open and honest in our offer with you, and trusted you with our home while we were away. I hope you appreciate it one day.

They were very accommodating and really made an effort to ensure I was comfortable, enjoying the local area and well fed. The meals were very delicious and really catered to my diet. The location is amazing and in the heart of everything. They are very good about hours and never asked to stay for extra work. I would also do dishes in the evening and think its good to have an understanding of that. It was an enjoyable experience. You will get a good idea of some real cultural opinions and differences. We had some great evenings hanging out, listening to music and they are a joy to be with.

Scott stayed with us a long time ago and at the time I never read his kind review, as we were on another platform. I'm sorry, because I would have been very happy to give him a good review at the time had he reminded me!
Scott was an easy guest who applied himself to some quite challenging tasks we gave him and I'm very happy to recommend him to other hosts .
Apologies to you Scott for this very tardy response to your review. Hope you are well.
