The Experience

In April, May and June help is needed with things like mowing grass, working in the vegetable garden, cooking and some construction work. In July and August you assist us with the campsite (mowing grass, watering flowers, cleaning facilities, cooking). In September and October the help can be on the farm: cleaning stables, or cutting wood or maintenance of buildings. This year we will be reconstructing an old wagon into a tiny house.

Arnold and Bernadette are incredible hosts. This was my first worldpackers experience and it was great, thanks also to their daughter Katinka. The place is very relaxing and is really great to conect with nature and the animals. The work is easy enough and they respect the hours given. Hoping to go back next time I'm in Slovakia and seen them again. Thanks a lot for this amazing experience :)

My first impression was that these moments would be very special, and they were until the end! It was fun doing activities completely different from what I'm used to. We cleaned the pool, watered the animals, cleaned the accommodations, mowed the lawn, and worked in the garden. We even tried chopping wood. We took turns cooking and shared meals together, talking about camping and local culture. The atmosphere was friendly and respectful. Bernadette and Arnold were very kind and took us to nearby towns. It was an amazing experience. No wonder many volunteers want to come back.

I volunteered at Farm & the camping in the Slovakian countryside, and it was a nice experience. I connected with new things, surrounded by nature and learning about the local culture. The tasks were manageable, not hard. Arnold and Bernadette, were flexible and always helped with our needs. We had a private room and assisted with meal prep. We also visited beautiful nearby towns. This was our first volunteer experience, and we are grateful for Arnold and Bernadette's patience in teaching us. They are open-minded and flexible. I definitely recommend this place to connect with nature.

I had a nice almost four-week stay with Arnold, Bernadette and Katinka. I improved my cooking considerably and my hosts were flexible with what I was allowed to cook, providing me with the necessary utensils and ingredients. Apart from that I was doing odd jobs around the farm, from refilling water buckets for the animals to moving the grass. My hosts gave me company at the dinner table and then gave me my own space afterwards so that I could do what I wanted. The other volunteers were lovely and fun to be around, and around the farm there are peaceful trails to follow.
