I had such a great time at this place. Femke and Marijn were extremely welcoming and friendly. The work was pretty fun too—it varied from day to day, and I enjoyed learning new things about construction and how volunteering works in general. It's a great place to go for a hike and enjoy the silence as well as the surrounding nature. I would definitely recommend visiting this spot.

A great place with kind and caring people! I worked together with other volunteers on renovating the house. The work could be different day-to-day or the same depending on the tasks. Marijn and Femke were great to work with and were very patient and accommodating. The surroundings were beautiful and definetely a nice place to hike. It was my first worldpackers experience and I couldn't have asked for a better place to start!

It is a very nice place in the nature. So nice to hear just the nature sounds. It is so much nice to hike there. The hosts and also everyone in that place is very nice. I am still here and stay some longer here. I will visit this place again. Thank you Femke and Marijn.

It was my first volunteer job and was definitely a good one, learnt a lot about different trades and construction techniques and spent some time in the Spanish mountains as well as down by the beach. Marijn and Femke are amazing and supportive and the other volunteers I had were also great. You got your own private room, kitchen and bathroom, we even got to go on a snow outing! Food is delicious and always on time as promised. The actual work can be tough at some stages but it's not too many hours throughout the day so definitely manageable. Overall a great experience!

Femke y Marijn son unos anfitriones estupendos, desde que llegamos nos ofrecieron una casa hermosa para dormir y la comida que necesitábamos. La experiencia es buenísima para conectar con la naturaleza aprendimos muchas cosas nuevas de la construcción y de como vivir en el medio de la montaña, recomendamos mucho si quieres desconectar y hacer caminatas por la montaña 🥰🥰🥰
