  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    One or two rooms with two beds are offered in an apartment perfectly equipped with a kitchen, living room and two shared bathrooms. If it is available, you could consider putting a double bed in a room, if it is not occupied in that period. We have a very large garden with a private forest and fields. In summer you can enjoy the pool in your free hours and stroll through the forest of our farm. Always taking care of the harmony of the environment and living with other people who live on the farm. We have two bicycles for those who need them to go and return to town. We have a horse, they can take care of it in their free time if they are interested, and if we talk about it and see that they know how to ride independently, they can ride a horse around our farm whenever they want.

    Se ofrece una o dos habitaciones de dos camas en un apartamento perfectamente equipado con cocina, salón y dos baños a compartir. Si está disponible, se podría mirar de poner una cama doble en una habitación, si no está ocupada en ese periodo.
    Disponemos de un jardín muy grande con bosque particular y campos.
    En verano se podrá disfrutar de la piscina en sus horas libres y pasear por el bosque de nuestra finca. Siempre cuidando la harmonía del entorno y conviviendo con otra gente que vive en la finca.
    Tenemos dos bicicletas para quien las necesite para ir y regresar al pueblo.
    Tenemos un caballo, se puede cuidar de él en su tiempo libre si les interesa, y si lo hablamos y vemos que saben montar autónomamente, podrán montar a caballo por nuestra finca siempre que quieran.

    The farm is located in the middle of the forest, but only 8 minutes walk from the town center. The town has shops, a supermarket and everything you need. Access to the town can be by road or by train with the direct line from Barcelona - Puigcerdà, with a stop at Ribes de Freser. The train ride from Barcelona takes about 2 hours, and from the train station to our house it is about 15 minutes on foot. In their free time they can relax on the farm and enjoy their free moments, visit the Núria Valley, go hiking in the area, visit a waterfall, go to the river to bathe, go via ferrata, climbing, canyoning among other things. We are looking for people who want to work, but with a good traveling spirit, wanting to share moments and experiences together, we can do some food or barbecue all together as a family.
