    Description

    If you really want to taste the real Spain this is for you! I live on a small farm in the North of Granada. I live in a cave house in a delightful village which is 15 mins from the main town. We are 1.5 hours from the ski slopes and the beach. This is a great area if you love the outdoors and it is very historic. I have 5 well trained horses, 4 dogs and 4 cats on a 5 acre farm and also foster dogs from time to time from our local dog shelter .

    I am a British Horse society senior coach who also cooks and gardens and enjoys farm life.

    I need a happy enthusiastic person with a passion for horses .Great training is available although riding is not part of your work time unless you are a Professional rider .

    I are near the town of Galera which hosts bars and restaurants and historic sites as well as a weekly market and many festivals.
    It also hosts 3 winery's as well as its own grape .
