I went to quila cridhe with my bestfriend Ivey. We both had the time of our lives with this amazing family. I had hospitality experience, Ivey didnt, and i can assure you, even without hospitality experience its doable and so much fun. We did the frontdesk and waitressing, but also did the christmas shop decorations. We were with 7 volunteers, and in the evenings we would cook dinner for everyone, every volunteer would cook a dish from their own country. We would also go out to the pub, or watch a movie with the whole family. We had a wonderful time and are very thankful for Isla and Paul!<3

I had the most amazing 2 weeks at the guest house. Paul and Isla were the most warm and welcoming hosts and i felt so at home the entire time. The location and views from the guest house are so beautiful and i met the most amazing people. I would highly recommend for any travelers needing a place to feel at home and relax and hope to be back to visit one day xx

I had an incredible month living in Drumie & working at the guest house. Isla and Paul are the most generous & kindest Scottish host you could hope for. Their toddler Shaw is adorable and they have the cutest dog Cola, who loves snuggles. They made me feel very relaxed and at home. During my stay; I loved our family dinners, movie nights, board game nights and everything in between. the guest house was such a fun team environment to work in and I loved feeding the Highland cows. Highly recommend the experience.

My time at Quila Cridhe was amazing! Isla and Paul are lovely hosts, kind and generous! Little Shaw and Cola can be quite chaotic but that just contributes to the warm family atmosphere! The farm is surrounded by beautiful nature landscapes while still being well connected to nearby cities. The other volunteers were wonderful as well and we did lots of fun things together on our free days and evenings! Sadly we stayed for two weeks, but I would gladly come back (at the very least to enjoy those scones again)! Thank you Isla and Paul!
