My experience at the guest house was absolutely amazing. Annie, Pete, and the whole the guest house gang are incredibly welcoming to all who come through the doors. The work is simple and varied so you won't get bored. The house is full of music and dancing (and soup!). If you are going during the winter, take an extra pair of socks and get a taste for tea.

This was one of the most enriching cultural experiences I've ever had! At the guest house, I was welcomed like family, with work hours respected and a flexible, understanding environment. Visitors should bring warm clothes in winter and clothes that can handle dirt or paint, as tasks often involve renovation, repairs, or gardening. I immersed myself in Irish culture, learning traditional dance and music, and enjoyed the stunning nearby lake and nature walks. I'm so grateful for this incredible opportunity—it's an experience I'll always cherish!

At the guest house, you will meet lots of amazing people from all over the world to go on excursions and to Lake Mask with, and the hosts are so friendly, I really loved the community here. Gusz took us to Clifden and Annie gave us a ride to Croagh Patrick! Working hours were respected, it was mostly painting, and I got to learn a new skill in how to cut and grout tiles, too :-) There is lots of music and Irish dancing :) The house is currently being renovated and thus a bit cold and dusty even in summer, so I'd recommend you bring sturdy work boots, and a thick pullover or two:) All the best to Juno

The guest house! What an adventure! I loved my first stay here. The family was wonderful, and I felt at home from the start. Note that the guest house is still under renovation, so expect some disorder and dust. It might not be ideal if you prefer a spotless environment. The work was easy, and the family is super flexible! The highlight of this experience was the great connection I had with everyone, including the other volunteers. Their warm welcome and generosity made me feel like I was a part of the family! Kiss everyone 😘!!!

A huge thank you to everyone at the guest house! Annie and Peter are lovely and make you feel so welcome. Also a big shoutout to their sons Gus and Theo who were awesome to work with as well! This has been an experience I'll never forget. The community and the people at this place is like no other. Schedule is very flexible, there are no set days of work. You will really connect with nature here. I will miss going for swims at the lake. I handled mainly landscaping duties which was totally fair work. I'll miss everyone and am happy I got to meet so many cool people. And Juno too!

My experience at the guest house was incredible!! If you want to immerse yourself in Irish tradition, this is definitely the right volunteering option. Lots of dancing, music, loved ones and a lot of LIFE! I'm going to miss the dances on Fridays, Annie, Pete, Guz, Freddie, Teo, Juno and the whole family. Thank you, you will forever be in our hearts.

The guest house is for sure the most irish experience that you will have! with a lot of dance, music everyday, friendly and lovely people, a bunch of lake spots to swim and a really really warm and sunny weather (only the last part isn't totally true, but it's ireland). annie and pete are really lovely hosts, actually much more than that! i felt at home and between my own family. guest and any other person that you will find at the guest house will for sure be the same, met a lot of amazing people over there, it was hard to leave.

Hello everyone I thought a lot about how to start talking about Greagh house but the truth is that you need to go there and see it with your own eyes, dance with your own feet and hear it with your own ears. Perfect place to have a valuable cultural immersion, find a community to be part of and make friends. The house is big and needs a lot of care, Anne is not usually strict with the tasks, but if you are going there I ask that you look at the place with care and help keep things in order. I thank Anne, Pette and the whole family for making us feel at home 🧡

My experience in the guest house was one of the best of my trip. Annie and Peter make you feel like family and include you in all their plans. The work was very easy-going; Annie always tries to make sure you feel comfortable with what you're doing, and the schedules and days were quite flexible. I really enjoyed the music and dancing, Sundays at the lake, walks, sunsets on the rooftop, the pubs, and the great vibes that were always present in the house. I will definitely return and stay longer; I made many friends and have wonderful memories. Thank you Annie, Peter, Theo, Gus, Joe and everyone 🫶🏻
