    Description

    We live in a house in the countryside in Ronda, Málaga, surrounded by nature and tranquility. It's a beautiful place with a lot of potential, but between work and everyday responsibilities, we don’t have the time to maintain the garden the way we’d like. In fact, our garden is more like a jungle!

    We are a couple (my wife and I), and we live with 4 dogs and several cats, so if you like animals, you won't get bored here.

    The idea of hosting someone came from realizing we needed help with the outside —sorting the garden, cleaning up a bit, and making small improvements. No experience is needed, just a willingness to help.

    We offer accommodation in a private room with a separate bed and private bathroom. There is internet at home, but we don’t have a TV. Additionally, homemade meals will be provided during the stay, so if you like simple, home-cooked food, you’ll feel right at home.

    If you’re looking for a short stay in an authentic rural setting, with animals, nature, and a bit of time to disconnect while lending a hand, feel free to get in touch!

    Vivimos en una casa en el campo en Ronda, Málaga, rodeada de naturaleza y tranquilidad. Es un entorno precioso, con mucho potencial, pero entre el trabajo y las responsabilidades del día a día, no tenemos tiempo para mantener el jardín como nos gustaría. De hecho, ¡nuestro jardín es una verdadera jungla!

    Somos una pareja (mi esposa y yo), vivimos con 4 perros y varios gatos, así que si te gustan los animales, aquí no te vas a aburrir.

    La idea de acoger a alguien vino precisamente de ver que necesitábamos una mano con el exterior —ordenar el jardín, limpiar un poco, y hacer pequeñas mejoras. No hace falta experiencia, solo ganas de ayudar.

    Ofrecemos alojamiento en una habitación privada con cama aparte y baño privado. Hay internet en casa, pero no tenemos televisión. Además, habrá comida casera durante la estancia, por lo que si te gusta la comida sencilla y casera, estarás a gusto.

    Si buscas una estancia corta en un entorno rural auténtico, con animales, naturaleza y algo de tiempo para desconectar mientras echas una mano, ¡escríbenos!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    By staying with us, you'll have the chance to experience rural life in Andalucía and enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. You'll live with us in a rural setting, where you can share simple moments and enjoy the tranquility the area offers. Although we’re not an extended family, the experience will be calm, and we’re always happy to share our local customs, homemade food, and talk about Andalusian and Spanish culture.

    We want to be transparent: we’re very busy with our daily tasks, so sometimes we may be away or working on other things. However, we always aim to make you feel comfortable and welcome, and if you have any questions or need help, don’t hesitate to let us know.

    Additionally, if you’re interested in gardening, you’ll have the chance to learn through hands-on experience while helping us improve the garden. We believe this is a great opportunity to relax, disconnect, and immerse yourself in an authentic rural experience.---------------------------------------------
    Al hospedarte con nosotros, tendrás la oportunidad de conocer la vida en el campo en Andalucía y experimentar la tranquilidad de la naturaleza. Vivirás con nosotros en un entorno rural, donde podrás compartir momentos sencillos y disfrutar de la paz que ofrece la zona. Aunque no somos una familia extensa, la convivencia será una experiencia tranquila, y siempre estamos dispuestos a compartir nuestras costumbres locales, nuestra comida casera y hablar sobre la cultura andaluza y española.

    Queremos ser transparentes: estamos muy ocupados con nuestras tareas diarias, por lo que a veces estaremos fuera o estaremos trabajando en otras cosas. A pesar de ello, siempre procuramos que te sientas cómodo y bienvenido, y si tienes preguntas o necesitas ayuda, no dudes en comentarlo.

    Además, si te interesa la jardinería, podrás aprender de la experiencia práctica mientras ayudas a mejorar el jardín. Creemos que es una excelente oportunidad para relajarse, desconectar y sumergirse en una experiencia auténtica de campo.

    Help

    We are looking for someone to help with garden maintenance. The tasks include tidying up the garden, clearing overgrown areas, and doing some small improvements (like weeding, trimming plants, etc.). We don't require any specific gardening experience, just a willingness to help out and some basic knowledge of how to use garden tools. It’s more about lending a hand and helping us manage the outdoor space. If you’re comfortable working outdoors and are happy to get your hands dirty, this will be a great fit!
    ---------------------------------------------
    Estamos buscando a alguien que nos ayude con el mantenimiento del jardín. Las tareas incluyen ordenar el jardín, limpiar áreas desordenadas y hacer algunas pequeñas mejoras (como deshierbar, podar plantas, etc.). No requerimos experiencia específica en jardinería, solo ganas de ayudar y algunos conocimientos básicos sobre cómo usar herramientas de jardín. Se trata más de echar una mano y ayudarnos a gestionar el espacio exterior. Si te sientes cómodo trabajando al aire libre y no te importa ensuciarte un poco, ¡será un trabajo perfecto para ti!

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The accommodation we offer consists of a private room with a separate bed and private bathroom. The house is a bit damp and cool, as we are in a rural area, so you may need some extra warmth during your stay. We don’t have amenities like a TV, but we do offer access to the internet so you can stay connected. Additionally, you will have access to a small, very basic private kitchen with a refrigerator, where you can prepare some of your own meals if you wish.
    ---------------------------------------------
    El alojamiento que ofrecemos consiste en una habitación privada con cama aparte y baño privado. La casa es un poco húmeda y fresca, ya que estamos en una zona rural, por lo que es posible que necesites algo de abrigo durante la estancia. No contamos con comodidades como televisión, pero ofrecemos acceso a internet para que te mantengas conectado. Además, tendrás acceso a una pequeña cocina privada, bastante básica, con una nevera, para que puedas prepararte algunos de tus propios alimentos si lo deseas.
