Hi, we moved to our home in North Dorset August 2014. It is a farm in a beautiful area of England. We have 3 children aged 20 - 12, 2 dogs and a cat and are preparing for beef cattle. It is a very friendly area, and the train station is close by. We planted 17000 trees over the last 3 years which need some help maintaining. We are establishing a garden, renovating a barn, making doors, painting. There are lots of different jobs to do from helping on the farm, to the garden, to cleaning and cooking in the house. If you have carpentry skills, brick laying or building skills, that is useful but not necessary.

We recently finished converting a barn to a large studio with a kitchen, it is attached to the house but quiet and private with great views.

Our farm has been in our family 100 years, the land is used by a neighboring farmer, but we manage the large gardens, courtyard and barn for events.

You can see our farm here: www.stanfordfarm.co.uk

As well as weddings at the farm I run a lesbian festival and other womens events.

Jobs that need doing:
Planting / weeding new garden areas
Mowing lawns (tractor mower)
Painting areas
Wood work and small building works
Working on event days at the festival or weddings.

I live at the farm with my partner Beki and her son William (13)

We have two caravans for use for volunteers to stay in. We have volunteers all year round so there maybe other volunteers here if you come on your own. We have shower and toilets blocks and outdoor kitchen.

Short-term cultural exchange in the old Roman City of Chester in exchange for helping with DIY around the house and garden.

Set in central Chester the location is close to everything you need and can enjoy in the city. Chester has many interesting things to see and do, including cultural and artistic opportunities. You can also walk along the Canal and River as well as tour the city on The Roman Sandstone Walls. The black and white Tudor buildings of the Rows are a tourist attraction and many people visit each year. It is close to North Wales, Manchester and Liverpool. I also have other guests staying, often artists and actors, as I like meeting new people from all across the world.

The helper will have a private double room, with excellent views over Wales, plus shared kitchen, bathroom, living areas and gardens. Food is not provided however occasional shared meal if that suits. I would ask the guest to remain vegan/vegetarian and non-smoking whilst in my home.

Hi, I am regularly looking for helpers as there is nearly always a new project to do here. I would prefer a couple or a someone who is creative and ideally has Carpentry, Construction, DIY and Maintenance Skills In particular please, but who can also assist with all manner of things from house cleaning, DIY, Gardening, renovation and building. I am looking for a couple, but having said that, would consider a person travelling alone too.

This is a lovely old farmhouse tucked down a Cornish country lane on the Rame peninsula. I am within walking distance of the beach and national trust coastal paths where there is amazing surfing and lots of walking opportunities. I do not run the farm as a fully working farm but do have chickens, 2 pigs, dogs and cats

I am in the process of renovating a vintage caravan, barns and out buildings, and am, along with a friend, hoping to build a small straw bale and half 'old window frame' lean-to glass house, a tree house and a clay pizza oven an... more inside

We are a small independent backpacking hostel in the centre of Birmingham, we have a small team of cleaning staff that handle our day-to-day cleaning tasks as well as team of permanent reception staff which deal with front of house tasks and occasionally general cleaning.

All of our staff are former guests who fell in love with our quirky little place and eventually became a part of the team, if you decide to join the team you will be with fun young individuals from every corner of the globe! It is a great place to improve your English, learn about different cultures and maybe even make some life long friends!

We generally only accept volunteers for a period of two months or more as training is required to fulfill most of our positions. If you are looking to stay for an extended period of time we are more than happy to give you small 'vacations' occasionally to explore the rest of the UK! These are subject to approval, as it depends on how busy the period is.

We are a family with three young boys (9, 8 and 5) based in beautiful Somerset. We live in a house which is currently undergoing renovation. We have pigs, chickens, a dog and cats. We hope to have someone who will enjoy spending time with three fun boys and can help with jobs around the house which may vary from gardening to painting to basic housework to walking the dog!

There is a bus from Wincanton (5 mins away) to London and lots of places to explore nearby for example Stourhead and Stonehenge (40 mins away by car).

One vacancy during May. Fully booked during June, July and August... Only open to people who have some experience with horses.
The reviews below are from when I lived at Withy Cottage. Since July 2018, I've been at Manor Farm. Different environment, same me!

I am a semi retired teacher with a love of the countryside, my animals, wildlife, cycling, art, music and dancing. I have a small grassland holding for my 4 horses. I live in a very tiny cottage, deep in the Lincolnshire countryside; ten minutes' drive from Horncastle and Spilsby, small market towns, and 30 miles from Lincoln, a beautiful historic city. There are buses to these towns, but it's a very long walk to the bus stop. ((We really are very rural). Our nearest train station is in Boston, which can be reached via either Grantham, Lincoln or Peterborough from most towns with nearby airports.

Hello! We live in Totnes, in South Devon, England. Totnes is considered to be one of the most 'alternative' places to live in the UK! In addition, there are many environmental and social projects which support the community. We moved to a small house here and are trying to improve it in order to be able to live with other people.

There are 3 people who currently live here, me (Charlotte) and my two children Rowan (age 6) and Aven (age 16months). There will be other people who come to stay as the house improves and people are able to stay in the rooms. My son who studies art sometimes stays here with a friend. He is brilliant and drawing and can offer lessons!

Each room needs work eg. move walls, repair floor boards, install small kitchenette, fit bathroom, small build on the back of the house, etc. Ideally this would suit a person/s who have some building (including carpentry and plumbing) experience! Non smoker, quiet person, happy to be around a small family but also opportu... more inside

Looking for someone for 1 or 2 weeks starting on over the period 17th April till 29th. I have travelled a lot over the last 10 years but am now settling down! I'm a teacher in a primary school but will be on Easter holidays and want to get some jobs done! I am vegetarian though if you would like meat your welcome to eat it. I am very close to major transport options into the city centre (10 minutes drive/ train or 20 minutes on the bus. There are a few bars and restaurants close by and some pretty woodland/canalside walks. I am looking for someone to help with decorating, moving things, cleaning,gardening etc.I would expect 3 hours work a day for bed, breakfast and fair use of the wifi. Other meals you are obviously welcome to store and cook here! The room is a pretty double with lots of storage.
Lola (the dog) is very friendly and loves walks in the woods and cuddling on the couch too! I am a good host and will happily take you to a few of the local sights/pubs if you would lik... more inside

We are a family home comprising of 6 of us (us and our 4 grown up tribe who stay at home sometimes) coming and going , 2 dogs, a rabbit and 3 sheep lawn mowers. There is usually lots going on and we like that. We are looking for an individual or couple that are both happy to muck in and be hands on. Short stays are fine, longer stays considered. Unfortunately for the week of the festival, (last week of June) we will have a full house. There are lots of things to do inside the house and out, but we are quite relaxed and open to new ideas. It would be hugely beneficial to us if you have any skills such as carpentry or specifically experience turning wooden stables into living accommodation. At this time of year, we need help with a variety of tasks, from strimming and brush cutting, to collecting and preparing firewood. The large garden is always in need of weeding and pruning. Cooking and cleaning are always a welcome addition, as a bit of contrast with the heavier work outside.
