Descripción
We are Sandy and Jose and we have changed our B&B in Castellón for a new life and adventure in Asturias.
We live now in a very small village in Asturias, about 30 minutes from the airport and the sea, about 40 minutes from Oviedo and 50 minutes from Gijón.
It is a quiet village in the middle of cows and horses and a few neighbors.
We are at 12 km from Salas and 17 km from Pravia but there is no public transport.
We are real animal lovers and have 8 dogs, 9 cats, 1 vietnamese pig, 3 donkeys, 4 sheep and some chickens.
We like to meet new people and learn about different cultures.
We provide a private bedroom with bathroom and have good working wifi.
Sometimes we need a little help in the vegetable garden and garden and for cleaning the House. But mostly we need someone to take care of the animals when we go visit our family and friends.
Jose only speaks Spanish and Dutch. Sandy speaks Spanish, Dutch, French, English and a little German.
We don't mind smokers but in the house it is forbidden to smoke and we don't want you to use an ashtray and clean It after smoking.
No problem for vegetarians.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
Travellers can benefit from a really nice room with private bathroom in a really nice place with stunning views. We have free wifi and I am a good cook (I love to cook and when posible with fresh products).
We live in a very beautiful, but not very famous province. Ideal to hike.
We are the ideal place to practice spanish, dutch, french or english.
We are also very sociable and like to have people around. Jose speaks Spanish, Dutch and Sandy speaks English, Spanish, Dutch, French and a little bit of German.
For those who loves animals, our dogs and most of our cats are very sociable and are always happy to see new faces.
Ayuda
We mostly need someone to take care of our animals so we can go visit our family and Friends sometimes. And ocasionaly some help in the garden or cleaning the house.
We prefer 2 persons to take care of the animals as there are a lot of them.
Idiomas hablados
Inglés: Fluido
Español: Fluido
Francés: Fluido
Holandés: Fluido

Alojamiento
We offer a nice and comfortable room with private bathroom. Bed and badlinnen wifi and heating.
Algo más...
We do not allow smoking inside the room and house, and outside we ask to use ashtrays or keep the cigarettes ends until the garbage can.
We don't mind people drinking alcohol with moderation but we do not allow drunk people in our place especially when they come to take care of our animals and we are not home.
We also try to keep our place clean so we ask respect for the environment.
We are rather isolated, so for some people maybe it is to isolated. You must drive 12 kilometers to the nearest pub.
