  Description

  We are a family from Germany and living since 5 years in the mountains of Andalucia. One hour to Estepona and one to Ronda. It's a small village named Genalguacil and our Finca is 10 minutes by walking away from it.
  Two dogs and two cats are living with us in this wonderful nature.
  You will find a river with pools for swimming, walking trails, bike tours, climbing... And a lot of other things. In the village you can find everything you need.
  A few bars, swimming pool, supermarket and a vegan restaurant.
  It's a place for relaxing and having a good time🌞

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Genalguacil is an village of art. Means, that we have an art museum and a lot of different sculptures in the hole village. Every second year there is in August an big art festival with artist from all over the world. In this 16 days there is a lot of program and the sculptures get installed in the village.
  
  There are a lot of foreigners living in the village and my mother in law. So you can connect easily and the community is very nice and helpful. We have groups of working party's, Spanish classes and other stuff.

  Help

  We are searching a person/ couple/ little family who wants to take care of our land from the 29. July until the 7. September. So round about six weeks.
  
  Your work would be watering the trees and garden and take care of two dogs and two cats. One of the dog is a Mastín mix and is a bit more challenging, so it’s better to have dog experience. They are all really lovely with humans and kids and love to be cuddled. But other female dogs are not always accepted.
  
  So if you like a simple life and like to calm down surrounded by beautiful nature and lots of hiking routes, this is the perfect spot for you! If you need help with anything my mother in law lives close and can help every time.

  Accommodation

  We have a small rustically house with living room, kitchen. A sleeping lodge and a guest house. We have an outdoor shower (hot water) with roof, a compost toilet and the washing machine, fridge and the electricity is running with solar. But that shouldn’t be a problem in august ;) we don`t have wifi, no television. We have a 5-year old child, so if you´re a family there is a children bed, toys and a big trampoline to play. If you have a caravan, you can also park it on our ground.
  
  So if you like a simple life and like to calm down surrounded by beautiful nature and lots of hiking routes, this is the perfect spot for you!

  What else ...

  In this region you can do a lot of sports, visiting nice nature and swimming spots and the favorite town Ronda is quite close. The Mediterranean see, Tarifa, Gibraltar and Málaga as well.
  
  Once the day there is a bus in the village to Ronda where is the next train station.
  But it's better to have a car here.
