Leaving the guest house and Inís Mór was absolutely awful because I had the time of my life there. Brenda, the manager, is the kindest, warmest person i've ever met and she makes the place feel like home right away! Unfortunately she finished up her season and left while I still had a while to stay. Seán is a smart and funny man! He respects the boundaries and hours agreed upon and he has a lot of knowledge about the island! The other volunteers were great. The place is located on the more remote far side of the island, but perfect for nature lovers! I will be back, biggest hugs from me!

It's my second time at the guest house and it couldn't have been better. I feel at home when I'm here and this season was a retreat. We had many guests, I met people, I had great experiences and I got to explore my favorite places on the island. Tasks were divided and organized and our days off were always respected. Thank you, Brenda and Sean for this season, I really felt at home. I wish you all the best.

My best experience with Worldpackers so far. The Lodge truly felt like a home to me, everyone was welcoming, warm, and we were an excellent team. It was really a joy to do the activities everyday, which are very easy to handle, and leave you plenty of time to go and explore the island. Inis Mor is a beautifull place, great for those looking to disconnect from the world and enjoy nature. It's perfect for hiking, biking, and has a long and interesting history. Sean is a great host, very attentive and fun, and Brenda, the manager, is one of the best people you can hope to meet.

I stayed for a month and mainly worked with 1-3 other volunteers and the manager, Brenda. PROS: Brenda went above and beyond to create a welcoming environment, even doing extra work to ensure we had the best possible experience; Sean or Brenda drove us to town and elsewhere when possible; Shifts ended at 12:30pm or 3:00pm, so plenty of free time; Was given full access to the kitchen and all the food, could put in requests for ingredients; Flexible schedule. CONS: Most shops/cafes (except for pubs) close around 4:00/5:00pm; Sean was at times unclear with his expectations and instructions.

As I write this review, I'm SO upset to be leaving the guest house. It truly felt like a home away from home and its own little oasis on Inishmore. Sean is a very kind host who always made sure the volunteers had everything they needed. And I can't say enough that will encapsulate how amazing the manager, Brenda, is. She is so funny, caring, and supportive and meeting her was one of the best parts of this experience. This experience let me relax in the beautiful Irish countryside, meet new people and experience new things. I would highly recommend this position to anyone!

Hi to everybody! I lived a very nice expeience in the guest house Walker Lodge, i felt very well with the host Sean, a local gentleman of the island, with Brenda the manager, a mexican girl very friendly, aware and wise and with the other volounteers. The landscape of the island is awesome, the location is in a peacefull zone, ideal for relax, hike, swim and meditation, but if you want to live the local social life there is some pub at 25 minutes of bike where they often play Irish music and serve tasty beers. I really enjoy my stay, i met very nice people and i practised my english. Bye bye.

A great volunteer opportunity! the guest house is in such a special location, within a welcoming community. The team is amazing, with Brenda and Sean making sure your time on Inishmore is enjoyable. My work included cooking, cleaning, and helping out at reception. Hours were respected, and your contribution is greatly appreciated. This left plenty of time to explore every corner of the island. There's lots of food for cooking, and the volunteer accommodation is comfortable and in a separate house from the lodge guests, giving you privacy. This experience is absolutely worth applying for!!

I immensely enjoyed my stay at the guest house on Inishmore! The owner, Sean, and the manager, Brenda, were incredibly kind. Brenda trained and supervised us, and was respectful of our agreed time commitment. I also enjoyed taking on some admin work. The only bad experience I had was with another volunteer. The location is amazing for nature lovers. There are stunning cliffs and a beautiful beach very close by, for those fine with cold waters. It's a bit far away from town, so I recommend it for people who are happy to entertain themselves with e.g. a good book in the evening.
