  • Description

    Description

    Small finca in rural Andalucia with 3 dogs and 2 horses and a goose. I work full time an hour away and need help with tidying up the finca and feeding the animals. Ideal for a couple who are independent and want to experience "real Spain". This finca is 5 minutes from the small town of Benalup, 40 minutes from Jerez, 1 hour Gibraltar and @ 30 minutes from the beautiful beaches of Costa de Luz. Miles of tracks for walking, riding and cycling direct from the finca. Not recommended for single travellers or under 25's and usually workawayers stay @ a month.
