I enjoyed my stay with Jackie. She is a really nice person and was always trying to make sure that everything is ok. I was the only vegetarian while I was there and she really put in effort to make nice vegetarian meals for me. She always made sure that working hours were respected. You can always find some faults and problems if you are looking for them or if you like things in one certain way, however, if you are flexible and open minded like I tried to be, you will definitely enjoy your stay there. I always felt welcomed and liked the conversations with Jackie and with the other volunteers.

Jackie is an amazing person with a wonderful heart. She always cared about our well-being and interaction, making us practice English, drinking water and taking breaks from work to rest. She showed interest in us getting to know the neighboring villages. She is fun and a great mother to the volunteers.

Jackie is a wonderful and incredible person. Always very friendly and willing to help you with everything, she was without a doubt one the home best hosts I have ever met. I hope I have helped even in a short period. Regarding the working hours, she is always respected and the work is calm. Thank you for everything Jackie 😉☺️

I totally loved my stay with Jackie! She is a lovely person, who is fun to be around. Even though it was a stressful time, she managed to make us really good food and always tried to do activities! Jackie always checks on you and wants you to feel good. There are various tasks to do, I loved the diversion in the work. I really recommend to see the waterfall, Souve and if you can Nimes. They are all beautfiul places, but Souve might be the easiest to get to. I will miss being there, with Chanel, Shorty (the two dogs) and of course Jackie. The time there was amazing!

I really had a good time with Jackie Marie, she is very funny and lovely, and makes sure you are feeling good. The place is ok, sometimes is a little messy so try to keep it clean and well organized. I learned a lot about construction with Ash, he is very kind and patient, and is really cool to exchange culture with him. The town is beautiful, I had fun just walking around the streets and watching old people play pétanque haha, you can also go to Sauve, which is a medieval town just 9km from the house and it is stunning to be there.
