  • Description

    Description

    We are a small family: Lea (10), Nina (52), and Markus (51). We rent out a small, creative cottage with a pool located on our estate, separated from our private living area by a fence.

    We live amidst pine trees in a peaceful setting, sharing our home with three tame cats and several wild ones. Cosmo and Estrella are two small black cats we adopted as kittens a year ago; Cosmo is very affectionate and loves to cuddle, while Estrella is the boss—brave and protective of our home. We took in Tiger three years ago; she is very calm and composed. She comes over for cuddles occasionally but loves her peace and quiet.

    We are both artists working in performance, painting, sculpture, and music, and we always welcome creative guests.

    Our is an idyllic, Frida Kahlo-inspired country house set in the quiet Andalusian countryside—a place to dream, unwind, and get creative.

    Nestled in a small forest, it offers tranquility and a unique atmosphere defined by art, color, and music—making it ideal for a creative getaway.

    Located just 15 minutes from the sea and the white villages of Vejer and Conil, it combines nature and inspiration with easy access to a wide range of leisure activities.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We engage in creative activities almost every day and often take trips to the beaches and nearby villages. There are constantly wonderful events taking place at great locations—such as ancestral dance sessions, sound baths, concerts, jam sessions, and much more. You are free to decide whether to join in or pursue your own activities. The surrounding nature is also beautiful. Our village has two small supermarkets and three restaurants.

  • Help

    Help

    We need help feeding and looking after the cats. It would also be great to have help watering the plants, doing minor repairs (such as fixing a fence damaged by the wind, covers, or kitchen shelves), and possibly mowing the lawn.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We have a beautiful glamping tent here that is all yours. Nearby, there is a small saltwater pool and sun loungers, as well as some hammocks in the woods. You are welcome to use our covered outdoor kitchen, and we can also provide a private gas stove if needed. We have an outdoor shower and two dry composting toilets. We live in a yurt. You can also park your van here, and we will provide electricity and clear well water.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We love the peace and nature here. If you feel the same way, you’ve come to the right place. Respect for nature and for one another is very important to us. We enjoy sharing ideas, making music together, dancing, and creating—whatever you feel like doing. We also cherish our downtime when we want to be on our own, usually in the evenings. We can give you a lift in our cars or lend you a bike. However, it is better if you have your own car, as our village is somewhat secluded—it’s a 15-minute drive to the nearest village. There are local shops and three restaurants, though, so if that’s enough for you, you can manage without a car.

    Flecki (1 year)

    Flecki haben wir sterilisieren lassen und füttern sie seitdem. Sie ist sehr scheu. Wenn man sie füttert, darf man sie auch streicheln.

    Tiger (2 years)

    Tiger war unsere erste Katze. Mit ihr habe ich meine Katzenallergie überwunden. Sie lief uns als kleines Baby auf der Schnellstraße entgegen. Sie ist sehr ruhig und kommt manchmal zum Kuscheln. Sie ist die Diva im Team.

    Cosmo (1 year)

    Cosmo ist der verschmuste Bruder von Estrella. Er ist sehr lieb zu allen Menschen und Tieren.

    Estrella (1 year)

    Estrella haben wir zusammen mit ihrem Bruder im Juli 2025 aufgenommen. Ihre Mutter ist zu dem Zeitpunkt verstorben und sie brauchten jemanden, der sich um sie kümmert. Estrella ist sehr mutig und neugierig. Sie kuschelt gerne und ist sehr zutraulich. Sie ist die mutigste aus dem Team.
