My stay at the guest house was complex but enriching. The guest house and garden are beautiful, created with great taste. Volunteers should know they stay in a separate chalet without a bathroom, which was cluttered with furniture and business items during my visit. Elizabeth plans to reorganize it for better accommodation. I recommend uploading chalet photos and detailing house rules in the WP publication to avoid surprises. As for Elizabeth, despite our initial differences and her direct personality, she's an interesting businesswoman who is open to honest/kind feedback and self-improvement 🌿

I had a lovely time at the guest house. The house is beautiful, has a huge garden and is surrounded by nature. The town, Monaghan, is about 3km away and can be reached on foot or by bike. It provides good bus connections to Dublin and Belfast. The host, Elizabeth, is very kind and caring and made sure I got to know the Irish culture. She is also an excellent cook and provides a delicious meal in the evening. My vegetarian diet was not an issue. The work will be distributed among the days as needed, thus there is no daily schedule/shifts. Great if you're looking for a quiet experience in nature!

Laura. It was so lovely to meet you and host you. I really enjoyed having you here ...as did Itzel. It was also great that you both got to share and 3njoy the trips to Belfast, Dublin, Hollywood Lake etc and the surrounding town and villages. Hope college is going well and that you have settled in to the new year. Best wishes. Elizabeth

The experience was really good, it was my first time as a volunteer and I felt very comfortable with the lodging and with the hostess. Elizabeth is fabulous, a very friendly, energetic woman, all the time she made sure that I visit the town and surroundings and that I get to know the culture and custums of Ireland. Tasks and schedules were respected as the publication says. The house is beautiful!!! The garden is amazing, beautiful place to live. It is 3km from the town, you can go by bike or on foot. Although it is quiet, the landscapes there are really from a movie!

The experience in the guest house was ok. It's a beautiful house in the countryside with beautiful landscapes. The work was a little hard and required having work experience with housekeeping and cleaning since the cleaning needed to be done really quickly and in a perfect way. The volunteer accommodation isn't inside the house, but that's good because you'll have privacy. I recommend this volunteer if you like to live in the countryside and if you have worked with cleaning and housekeeping. Otherwise, it could be very stressful.

I think Fernanda was not prepared or suitable for any of the tasks that came with the role here. All was basic common sense house keeping. Also her personal issues caused alot of stress here and the need for me to seek advice and guidance from the support team. Sadly I do not recommend Fernanda for any house keeping related volunteer positions.

I had a good time staying at the guest house. The house is very beautiful and unique, especially the garden at night. Elizabeth is a caring person who wants to share with volunteers the Irish culture. During my time there I had the opportunity to visit Belfast, and Dublin,explore Monaghan town, and attend regional music festivals. As for the work,it was in general easy to learn. I helped with gardening, cleaning and breakfast. The hours and schedule varied from week to week.
