    Description

    Hello, we are a family made up of Tacuabe(12), Fabián (48) and Magda(40). The dogs Arco, Inga Atenea and Pascual (Gato) the 11 pipinas (chickens), Mr. Plumitas (peacock) and the horses (Centella, Kuref, Thunder, Rain, Pyandi, Athos, Juanita and Chaparrón) the latter do not live with us, they are a few km away in the countryside.
    We live in a privileged place of 2000 square meters and three blocks from the beach surrounded by nature and accessible to the main services of the La Pedrera spa.
    In the other property there are 2 houses that are rented mainly in high season (December / January).
    It motivates us that they help us in our entrepreneurship and share our space with people who value simplicity and love nature.
