    Description

    We are a little family (muy husband Miguel Angel and me, Olga) living in the countryside and arranging our home and garden. Some animals live with us, mainly our dog, Gaia, a goat and temporarily a pair of donkeys.
    It's very beautiful picturesque place close tu a small village on the river. We are living in the south of Cantabria, in the valley of the river Pisueña.
    Our plot is quite large with trees and beautiful nature corners with views to the mountains of Miera.
    People here still preserve their ancient traditions and in many ways their lifestyle. The place is known as Farmers valley. If you like Nature, wild life, and also domestic animals, this valley will offer you all that options.
