Descripción
We are a small nonprofit amateur sports association located among the Maremma Toscana hills.
We have around 10 horses and ponies which are used for pleasure riding, show jumping, cross country, trekking and turismus all year round.
As we are a riding school, we offer a variety of lessons for very beginners to advanced riders. During summer time we may have hollyday camps group for a full immersion of horse and nature.
We also have many dogs that are part of the Farm.

Alojamiento
We have the house located right on the farm. The house is an old, unrestored cottage. You can expect a rustic and very simple environment.
You will have room and a bathroom to share. Sometimes you have to share the room with another Workaway of the same gender.
You will also have access to all other parts (kitchen, sitting room, dining room etc) of the house. There are dogs and cats that share the home too.
Food is supplied. We are happy if you want to cook and let us know new recipes! You can get your breakfast yourself and we use to eat lunch and/or dinner all together. During the summer time we also use to eat outside under a tree shadow, enjoying the peacefull nature.
