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 πŸ«€ 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!

Matty was my first host being a volunteer and safe to say it did not disappoint! I had various work, met his family and friends/co workers, great food and got to see some amazing local spots. Matty has great character and I believe this to be the reason for such a positive experience. The house and location is stunning, garden is thriving, what else do you need!? I think that this would be suited to everyone, plenty of space for time to yourself and if you have an adventurous spirit you'll take a lot from here.

The experience I had was exceptional, being part of this volunteering allowed me to learn, know and have a complete immersion about life in the countryside, at the same time I had the opportunity to meet great people, have significant experiences and unforgettable moments, taking into account that the tasks to be carried out are in accordance with what was agreed, Matty welcomes you into his house and makes you part of his home, apart from the fact that he is a great host he makes your stay the best. Recommended to everyone who wants to live a similar experience!!!!!

I loved it! The place is surrounding by beautiful hills you can do walks and enjoy the quietness of the nature of Wales. The house is big and cosy with a beautiful architecture, the room is like being in a hotel 5 stars, feels like a movie!. The work times are flexible, respected, and you have enough spare of time for yourself. Matty is a really kind person with a lot patience to talk with, helpful if you're trying to improve your English. Aswell Matty and his family are really genuine, lovely and opened to share about its culture It was a unique experience 😊. Would love to be back!
