The camping was a fantastic volunteer opportunity. Tuesday and Wes are great hosts and nice to get along with. The work was straight forward and hours respected. I had such a great time I will be returning!

Tuesday and Wes are so kind and I appreciate what they build in the camping. The tasks were clear and they make me understandable all time because sometimes I am in difficult to understand the irish accent. So don't be scary for that. If you are a person who love staying in a country side, reading a book, listening music and you are not so sociable the camping fit for you. If you need city life, you could go there and you could use the 2 days off to visit the main cities in Ireland. They are so polite to pick you up. The dorm where you'll sleep it's a loft so cozy. I ate good. So let's go!

Amazing experience! There's always something happening in the camping it's impossible to get bored, we work hard, we party hard 🎉. Everyone is kind and gentle, even in the local pub (Mid Atlantic Team will be missed). All the best to Tuesday, Wes, Ziggy, Pixie and Púca!

I enjoyed my time here! It was nice to have variety of tasks - outside work, painting, cleaning etc. I like the schedule (10-13; 14-16), had enough free time. Every day we had lunch and dinner all together with host family and volunteers. Dinner we were cooking taking turns day to day (btw useful thing to know for the future volunteers is that food for lunch&dinner at the days off you buy and cook for your own). Room was cozy and beautiful :3 Hosts are beautiful and creative souls, very interesting people and open in communication. I glad I had this experience, best wishes to the camping!))

This host is great, the place is magically beautiful and they really care for the gardens, pets and people. When the weather is good, you work outside, if not, inside in construction and even getting to know some machines. In summer, the job is more to care for the guests, preparing the yurts with hot tubs and pods. Very lovely and even in the rain a beautiful experience even if you only decide to go for a walk on the property after work. In conclusion: amazing, unique, had a great happy time and might come back!
