Description
We are an italo-austrian family on this farm, 20 km from the airport, 5 km from the sea, situated in the beautiful barren landscape in the heart of Fuerteventura.
We are staying either in Fuerteventura or in Austria (where we are running an Italian restaurant).
On the farm in Fuerteventura there are 2 horses, 3 donkeys, 11 sheep, 14 cats and one dog, a podenco canario.

What else ...
As we are situated near the main road between south and north of the island, there is also a bus stop 2 minutes’ walk away, where you can take the bus either to the capital, Puerto del Rosario or to the beautiful south of the island.
Just in case we also have a car which you can use for a little trip or go shopping. If you arrive in a rv/caravan there is enough space to park - only water and electricity you must take from the house.
