    Spend a few weeks immersed in breathtaking natural scenery, abundant wildlife, and a taste of self-reliant living. Our compact resort is built to operate independently, surrounded by the beauty of nature. We're looking for hands-on help with upkeep, including painting, minor construction, and repairs, as well as gardening tasks like planting, harvesting, and landscaping. We take pride in preparing healthy meals, catering to both meat lovers and vegetarians alike. Located in the Gibraltar National Park, we're amidst stunning waterfalls, refreshing river swims, and breathtaking vistas.
