  • Description

    Description

    We are a free spirited middle-aged couple living in a small village house in the Provence of Sevilla, approximately 1 hour drive to centre of Seville and 1.5 hr from Malaga.
    We took early retirement and moved here from Scotland in 2020.
    Our lovely little village provides an excellent base for exploring Andalucía.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are based in an excellent location for discovering Andalucía.
    We can be flexible with 'helping hours' but as a rough guide we thought, Mon-Fri, 10am-2pm and all weekends off, giving you plenty of time to explore.
    The village itself provides many amenities including several cafe/bars which all serve tapas, grocery shops and a pharmacy. We could introduce you to many of the locals who have welcomed us into their village....and all have stories to tell.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We live in a 3 bedroomed village house with a courtyard type garden at the back.
    We can offer a twin bedroom however, we only have one bathroom, so we'd need to share.
    We will provide breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We are both smokers, unfortunately, so we don't have a problem with that however, this is kept strictly to the garden area.
    There is no public transport within the village itself, but we'd be happy to drive you to nearby towns and villages or the nearest railway station which has trains to Seville, Malaga and Madrid.
