Descripción
We are Nikki and Tom, an English couple that along with our cat live in an old farmhouse about 10km away from the village of Álora. We love living in the countryside, and Tom grows a lot of our vegetables. We enjoy good company, conversations, playing cards and board games. We are looking for a workawayers, to come and work with us, not for us, for a week or more. Someone who enjoys the peacefulness of the countryside, and perhaps is looking to leave the rat race behind for a while. We have a swimming pool and nearly 20 acres to explore. We are more than happy to do a WhatsApp video call, and can be very flexible with the work hours per day, meaning a long weekend work free is on the cards, ideal for a trip away exploring. Having your own transport would be a real bonus, but not a requirement. Groups would be considered if camping/campervan.

Our home is about 5km from the train station, although only a short distance, it takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes to walk, although a couple of times a week we are more than happy to take you to the train station. It is possible to get to get a train to Malaga, and the coast, also the Caminito del Rey at El Chorro. Adjacent to the house, we have numerous rural walks with nature all around. We are non smokers, and would prefer non smokers. We enjoy meeting other people, sharing mealtimes together and playing board games.

We are new hosts, and Anthony was our 2nd workawayer, but this was his first placement, so neither of us knew how it would go. We needn't have worried from the initial video call we knew it would be okay.
Anthony is extremely polite and respectful, and very hard working.
He has a huge array of working skills, and… read more
They welcomed me with open arms and we shared an incredible time together. Initially meeting Tom at a local restaurant because they live up an old riverbed turned track seemed concerning but actually this turned… read more
