Description
I moved from the US to Malaga, Spain, as a woman in my 50s with my two dogs, and I adopted two more in my five-bedroom Pool Villa in Malaga, located 40 Minutes North of Malaga airport, in a beautiful village with stunning mountain views. Open to help where it can be provided, including help with pets, home, local travel, and/or general home or admin support. What talents or abilities do you want to share? You can also travel to local communities, experience all Spain offers, garden, hike, eat, drink, swim, and play with dogs. I would love to create a safe place to share the beauty and culture of a traditional village while living a healthy and peaceful lifestyle. Men and women or couple can share their talents and energy on this journey.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The region and village are rich in Spanish culture, scenery, gastronomy, and amenities that suit all tastes and budgets. This beautiful inland area will take your breath away. It offers spectacular scenery, excellent country roads to explore the area, and other historic cities close by, with transport links to the many gems of Andalucia! Rural tourism is, at its best, perfect for nature lovers!

Accommodation
The room is just outside the main house through an enclosed patio with one bathroom, air conditioning/heating, and a fireplace. The bathroom is an adjacent large room with a walk-in shower, a jacuzzi tub, and a shared washer and dryer. You can access the main house through a kitchen door via the inside patio. The main areas of the home, including a kitchen, a pool, a cabana, a patio, and gardens, are shared spaces. We have a large pool and cabana where we can have outdoor grilling, sunbathing, meditation, yoga, or whatever you feel like while looking at the mountains. There are two bikes on the property available to explore the village.
I will purchase food for home to prepare, and we can cook separately or together as desired and convenient.
What else ...
We have horseback riding, hiking, restaurants, local fairs and festivals, and weekly markets with fresh produce, home goods, clothing, meats, and seafood.
The property is fully fenced and secured with gates and security cameras—unnecessary because there is virtually no crime here, and the neighbors watch out for each other.
The location for this well-maintained detached 4/5 bed villa is a 5-minute walk to the nearest quality restaurant. It is only a 15-minute walk to the center of this popular, traditional village north of Málaga. Nestled in the stunning, unspoiled countryside
