Description
Hello, we are Aldo and Marion. Aldo is german and I am dutch.
We are living in the south of Spain for 23 years now.
Our house lies in the beautyfull valley of Ronda la Vieja about 25 minutes by car from Ronda.
For the last 10 years we rented out our ,in old style renovated ,cottage to tourists but this year we stay in our cosy house.
We have 2 horses, 3 dogs and 2 cats.
We are looking for someone (or a couple) who can participate in the care of the animals.
Maybe even take over the care for a short period so we can visit our family in Germany and the Netherlands.
It is important that you worked with horses before.
