  We have space available for workawayers a couple or individuals. There are lots of things to be done and plenty of scope for all types of skills and people with lots of mini projects. Over the coming months there are many different types of things to do as it is an on going project.
  
  
  There is one space currently available. I am in a wheelchair and need help around the home with cooking, cleaning and arranging. 2 partss of the home I cannot access and it would be great if you could help arrange things in those areas too. Some driving will be required so you should be over 26 to be covered on the insurance of our car.

  The property is 500m2 which includes 3 apartments and a swimming pool and 2 large patios and is a 15-minute walk away from town.
  
  My place is big and plenty of comfortable spaces for you to relax in in your spare time. We are in a great location the views are beautiful and sunrise is always stunning to watch, we are in the countryside with plenty of walks all around but we are also close to town. There is a mountain bike which you can use and the beach is a 10 minute ride. We have miles of beaches and coastal walks that are quiet and peaceful throughout the year.
  
  We have a gym, swimming pool a covered outdoor terrace for dining. A lounge chill out area with all movies series etc in English and live tv from every country.
  
  Whilst we do not drink alcohol, we are easy going and if you wish too that is fine but if you need to drink every night this is probably not the place for you.
  
  We are close to a seaside resort so if a hazy beach summer/autumn with live music in the air, we have an air show on the beach here in September and sunset promenade walks is your thing get in contact with us.
  
  We are situated a 15 minute walk from Torre del Mar where there is good bus connections to Malaga, Nerja, and Granada etc. There is also a bus stop at the bottom of our road which goes to Malaga. If you like to spend some time sightseeing we have Granada (1.5hr), Malaga (30mins), Marbella (1hour 45 mins), Ronda (2 hrs) Seville (3hrs), and Cordoba (1.5hrs) away by bus.

  We are a coastal town mainly used by the Spanish during the summer. Torre del Mar is a medium sized coastal town it has an extensive shopping mall with a cinema, the town has plenty restaurants and bars and a 8km beach promenade, cycle path and running track along the beach we have 2 beach gyms open to the public and both in the mornings and evenings it is bristling with people out training. Malaga is a 40 minute bus ride and there are plenty of castles, art, historic places to visit there. The climate is one of the best in Spain due to the Sierras behind Torre del Mar and close proximity to the Mediterranean sea ensures wit have a pleasant climate all year round.
