I had the best time at Highrove house. Everybody is extremely kind and they treat you as a part of their family. The work is physical but easy. Especially if you are a group of 3 or 4 people you are done pretty fast. All the animals are lovely and you will definitely learn a lot about them. Generally, I would highly recommend this experience. I can't wait to visit the whole Family on my next trip to the UK!

The people at the home are some of the most generous and wonderful people I've ever met. I felt like I was part of the family and ejoyed every single day. The work is rewarding and if you work together in a team it takes no time at all. All the animals are amazing! Andy is a wonderful cook (Chris is as well of course, but what else would you expect from a top tier chef :) Phili and Terri are a wonderful mother and daughter duo who are unbelievably knowledgeable. I highly recommend a stay at the home!

It have been one of the best experiences of my life! I didn't know the mean of "lovely" until I meet Terry:) I have been working with horses, Terry teached me all the tasks and she is pretty patient with you if you don't know to speak english completly perfect. The work is easy and simply. It was strange the day that Terry didn't ask me If everything was okei and If I needed something, the whole family helped me in everything that they can, they are so kind, adorable and attentive I really wish to come back as soon as me possible Thank you truely for everything Terry!

Terri and Andy are by far the most extraordinarily welcoming and kind people. Andy would cook the most amazing meals that I looked forward to every night. The animals are very sweet too, especially Eva who adores any and all attention. Terri has made such a wonderful place to volunteer and anyone would be lucky to experience it.

It was my first experience on the wordpackers platform and everything went very well! Terri's family is friendly and will make you feel right at home! They provide all the food (plus an excellent dinner) and a single room in a cosy atmosphere. The work is easy, but it gets a bit heavy on days when you have to move many horses. I recommend the experience to anyone who loves animals, wants to live in a traditional English family home and feels in a safe environment. Many thanks to Terri's family (Andy, grandmother and others ) for their hospitality and care!

I loved the experience. The place is beautiful and the people are welcoming. Terri is a great host and her husband Andy is a great cook and a great local storyteller. I had an immersion in the culture. Horses are wonderful, I learned a lot about them in this time. I highly recommend this volunteer.

I truly could not have wished for a better experience. I had my own room and everyone was very nice. Terri is such a great person and I also got to learn plenty new things about horses from her. Andy is a great cook and always prepared the perfect dinner. The dogs made mocking out the fields lots of fun because they simply followed us the entire time and later also always loved to cuddle. The horses are all very well-behaved and of course did not mind a good scratch either;). Because of this the work was more fun than actual work and with the other helpers it did not take too long.

Terri and her family were welcoming and chatty. We were provided a room with a double bed and access to en-suite bathroom. En-suite shower was shared with other volunteers due to leak in main bathroom (this was not an issue as people knocked before entering). For breakfast and lunch we could help ourselves to food from the kitchen and Andy cooked a family style meal and dessert each night. The tasks were enjoyable and easy due to it being summer (apparently it is harder in the winter). Lots of friendly dogs, cats, chickens and horses. Walking distance to train station and local supermarket.

It was my first volunteer and i couldn't get better. it was a wonderful experience being there and meeting the family. I felt like at home. Work doesn't feel like work, very easy and with good company as horses ;) Comfortable place to sleep and great food (Andy is an amazing chef). Everyone was super friendly and helpful.
