Where do I begin? Staying with Sophie and her family has been a truly transformational experience— I felt integrated into the family and larger community, hours were always respected and tasks were varied, the other volunteers were fun and friendly, and the food was phenomenal. I feel blessed by this place and very grateful it was my first volunteer experience at the outset of a long journey. I will miss Merlin, Guinevere, and Gizmo/Lancelot and hope to return soon ❤️🌈🧚🏼

I loved my experience at the project Garden! Sophie and her family made me feel incredibly welcome. The place is spacious with a huge garden. Tasks were simple, and hours were respected yet flexible. The city is picturesque with a unique, spiritual vibe. I found the peace and harmony I needed. Sophie's food was delicious, and the electric bike they lent me was super helpful for exploring. I had my own room initially, then a tent to myself. Sleeping in a tent was a new experience, but it was pleasant because Sophie always made sure I was comfortable. I even learned about gardening. I recommend it

Staying with Sophie and her family was a truly wonderful experience. They are incredibly welcoming and warm, and even with their busy schedules, they always take the time to talk with you and genuinely care about how you're doing. They are also very patient and encouraging when it comes to teaching gardening tasks. Overall, it's a great environment to practice English and feel at home.

My Experience at the project was ultimately positive... the food was amazing (Sophie is a wonderful cook and a kind and lovely person), the garden is small but there is always something to do and the hours and days of work are very much flexible! I would 100% recommend this experience, but with some caution to their family businesses which are based on extremist spiritual and alternative beliefs (they do not push any of this onto the volunteers) but it was a bit too much for me - the best way I can put it, is that Glastonbury just isn't for me. I simply should have done more research :)

It was the most confortable place that I've been since I began backpacking. Sophie is always friendly and she really tries to make your experience the best possible. The work is flexible and the food is delicious. They also borrowed me a bicycle so I could ride in Glastonburry, it was fun.

This was my second time staying with Sophie and her family and I enjoyed my time. I was really stressed out at the time about an upcoming exam I needed to take, but Sophie was so very understanding and made me feel at home, letting me stay despite my low physical and mental energy. I appreciate her and her family so much for welcoming me again and being there for me. I got to play with their cats, help out with cooking, and make a bonfire :)

My experience at the project Garden was amazing! Sophie is the kindest person I have ever met, her place is very cozy, I felt really comfortable during my stay. The work hours are flexible and so are the days off. 100% recommended experience. I hope to see you again Sophie! 😁

What an incredible experience :) I felt at home, Sophie is a wonderful person, with a beautiful heart. I helped planting and harvesting vegetables and preparing the beautiful garden for winter. I also helped with social media. All meals were included and I could use the kitchen at any time of the day. I was able to eat many organic vegetables from the garden and Sophie always made sure to have vegan options for me. I stayed in a private room, which was super cozy. The city has a mystical vibe and it's easy to go to nearby cities. I highly recommend the experience, it was an enriching time!!

My experience was genuinely perfect. Sophie is the kindest woman I know and together with Sally, her mother, they create a beautiful atmosphere of cooperation. The tasks were all related to her garden preparing the beds for the next season, days with physical work but totally rewarding. I recommend it to all those who enjoy contact with nature. Glastonbury, furthermore, is a gem of England that pleasantly surprised us.
