My week at the project was wonderful! It is a place full of peace and good energy. I was able to cook with vegetables and fruits from the garden and other local products. I also helped take care of the garden for the winter. The work was simple, and Matty is flexible with the schedules. Matty is an amazing person, very kind, fun, and great company. He was also very patient with my English. He always had interesting topics and stories to share. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun with him. I definitely recommend this experience and I would love the opportunity to come back one day! ☺️♥️

My experience at the project was very positive. The place is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. The work is physical, but you get used to it. Taking care of the chickens and the vegetable garden was truly enjoyable. The nearest town is a 25-minute walk away. Matty is friendly and makes you feel at home. Overall, it's a recommended volunteer opportunity for those seeking a calm environment and contact with nature.

I had a great time at the farm! Matty is a very welcoming host and great conversationalist. The house and garden are beautiful with a super interesting history. I really enjoyed spending time with Haggis and the chickens and cooking with vegetables from the garden. The nearest town Talgarth is only a 25 min walk away with a great bakery. I definitely recommend the farm!

I have absolutely loved all of Wales and Talgarth is such a cute gem. Matty is a wonderful host and made me feel safe and at home from the first day. Both his house and his farm are stunning: surrounded by hills and woods, I felt at peace, free. He's also been very patient with all my questions ahah: even though I was born and raised in the countryside I feel like I've learned more from my time here than at home. You'll get used to the physical work pretty soon and after a while I've grown so fond of the animals and plants that it didn't even feel like work anymore!

My volunteering with Matty was great. The place is really calm and relaxing, perfect to unwind. Matty is super friendly and welcoming, you quickly feel at home. I went on some amazing walks thanks to his tips, and the scenery was beautiful. Honestly, I had a great time. Thanks again, Matty!

I am so grateful for my experience at the project and couldn't recommend it enough. It is a very special place, a beautiful house surrounded by incredible nature and lots of history. Matty is just a great host and person, very interesting to talk to with a great sense of humour. I really enjoyed working in the garden, I learnt a lot about sustainability and growing food etc. Plus there are chickens and sheep to play with which is a huge plus! If you want to slow down and get in touch with nature this would be perfect for you. Thank you Matty ☺️

I deeply treasure the experience I had at Collage Farm! Matty is amazing respectful, kind, honest, and easygoing. He is always willing to help you learn 🫀 During my stay, I learned a lot about sustainability. It helped me become more aware of the food I eat and how to take care of my body and mind. The site is a bit far from the nearest town (Brecon), but if you're looking for a quiet place to connect with nature, this is the right spot! Thank you, Matty, for trusting me and turning this experience into a beautiful memory.

I highly recommend volunteering here if you love nature, hiking/outdoorsy stuff, and aren't afraid to get your hands a little dirty. Matty is an amazing host who cares about his volunteers and makes sure that you are comfortable (and well fed!). The work was physical but very rewarding and I loved being outside in the garden everyday. Haggis (his sheep) was very talkative and kept me company in the garden too haha. Overall, my stay here was incredible and I'll miss the project very much. Definitely a 10/10 experience. 😌

My stay at the project was the best experience I've had traveling as a Worldpacker. Matty is a great host, an amazing person and with a great outlook on life. Everything about this volunteering is perfect for getting to know Wales, its beauty, its culture and its people. After spending 7 weeks there, I left with my heart full of inspiration and lovely memories ❤️ Thanks Matty!
