Experience island life - gardening and house-keeping in Scotland

If you want an authentic taste of Scottish life, I highly recommend visiting the Isle of Arran. Andrew is a warm and welcoming host. During my stay, I helped in the community garden and learned about COAST, a local grassroots NGO focused on marine conservation. A was very flexible when I needed to work remotely and adjusted the schedule to suit us both. I also helped with housekeeping, painting, and some outdoor tasks—even tree pruning. The island's stunning coastlines and forests left a deep impression. Living here for a month was an honour, and I gained a richer understanding of Scotland.

My 3 months with Andrew was like living with my best friend in a magical place. Between laughter, traditional dances, good food, and beautiful views. Andrew is a very kind, friendly person and will always make you have a good time in his house.The tasks are very simple and he is always willing to help and explain everything. The island of Arran is beautiful, you never get tired of exploring it. My English is basic, but Andrew helped me improve it, he practiced with me every day. I met his girlfriend Petra, she is fabulous. They are a perfect duo to make you feel at home! I absolutely recommend

My experience in this volunteering was truly amazing. Andrew is a very kind and charismatic person, and during free time, we took advantage of going on hikes around the island since he knows some beautiful trails. If you want to connect with nature, this is the ideal place. Regarding the tasks, they were quite varied, whether it was gardening, cleaning, chopping wood, painting, and more. I learned a lot here; I would do it again. I got to meet his wife and several friends; everyone was very kind to me during this time. I will cherish fond memories of this place.
