  Description

  Hi, we live in a 4 bed cortijo not far from tabernas.that stands on an acre of land, it stands at the end of a wide dirt road that homes a few other acre sized gardens & cortijos along the road . We Bought many years ago as a project but taken on more than we can handle 😕 as old country houses constantly need work. We would like to create a self sufficient mini farm & do up the house, garden & pool, we like to be creative & arty & are looking for any help from builders/joiners/ handy person/painters/ gardeners/fencing , help with cleaning/ cooking/ sorting & decorating... the jobs seam endless at the moment but we also like to take time out x visit places in the area, it's just the two of us here , we are very friendly x down to earth, x flexible , we have a double room x shared bathroom & are looking for someone to come x stay like a family member.
  We also have 4 dogs & 2 cats but they sleep in an extended building & not in the house.
  We also feed & treat the other cats in the area that don’t have a home.
  So if you like to help make something crappy look good again, upcycle things, create a veggy patch, or build something new ? then this is the place for you 😁
  The village of tabernas is 15 minutes away, it is a traditional Spanish village with lots of places to visit in the area, The views are great for walks, Hiking or cycling .
  the Spanish villagers are really friendly ( multicultural) but rarely speak English but they are used to a few visitors 😊
  Feel free to ask as many questions as you wish 😁
