A magical place that stays in your heart I had the great pleasure of spending time at the farm, which was surrounded by an extraordinary aura of peace and closeness to nature. Beautiful horses, goats, rabbits, cats and a friendly dog created an amazing atmosphere of this place. It is a real oasis where you can calm down, relax and find balance. My stay as a volunteer was one of the best experiences in my life. I had the opportunity to learn how to establish contact with horses and how to be with them - it was a valuable, life lesson that I will not forget. Simona-Josip and Wiktoria - the

Joining this Croatian family made me want to repeat the experience elsewhere! Simona, Josip and Viki are welcoming and very kind; they introduced me to their culture. I was a little apprehensive about communication because of my simple English but they were patient and put me at ease. the farm is a relaxing and friendly place. The tasks are varied, always pleasant and without pressure. I learned a lot in 2 weeks, I would have stayed longer... if the opportunity arises, I will come back 😊 Good luck with the development of the farm!

If you want to feel local and slow life in Croatia this is your ideal place. Joseph and Simona are best person to meet in Croatia. Through the work and talk with them, you will see how the life is cycling and end up in loving this place. Also you will be surrounded by lovely animals and they will be your best coworkers. And yeah, food is amazing. Don't miss their homemade pizza it will blow your mind. Thank you for those good memories, see you in 6 years!!

Be prepared to get your hands dirty and emerge into this calming life!! Simona and Josip moved from the city to the countryside and learned everything by themselves. Is so refreshing to see that this couple picture their life and did everything that they could do have a welcoming the farm and farm. They share with you everything that they learned. Any questions, they are more than happy to help you. If you come in the summer you might be un troppo bene un troppo male with the heat but you get used to it and you can chill in the afternoon. Overall a very different/ great experience. Hvala❤️

My time at the farm was very good, I learned a lot about horses and about being healthier, but mainly things about myself, thank you for the advices and the delicious food, the farm is a very calm and quiet place, the work is hard but there is plenty of time to rest. I wish you the best and that you can achieve all your incredible plans for the farm. ❤️
