Description
Hi! We’re Jamie and Harriet – an outdoorsy, animal-loving couple living in beautiful Castalla, Spain. We share our little slice of paradise with our cats, horses, and dogs, we’re always up for good company, good food, and a bit of hard work in the sunshine!
I’m originally from Italy and love to cook (so you’ll be well-fed!), while Harriet works with horses and spends as much time as possible outdoors. We’re friendly, relaxed people who enjoy meeting others from around the world, sharing stories, and learning new things.
Our Place
We live on a lovely, spacious 5-bedroom private property set on around 2 acres of land filled with fruit and olive trees. The land keeps us busy — there’s always something to do, from tending the garden to general maintenance and other projects.
We are looking for a single host at the moment due to our Annex being occupied by family and less space available.
Your accommodation will be a private room with your own bathroom and shower in our home. The toilet is shared, but there is plenty of space to relax both inside and outside the property
This is a private homestead with no business activity. -

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We provide free accommodation, home-cooked meals, and a welcoming atmosphere. You’ll be part of the family while you’re here.
In your free time, there’s plenty to enjoy – hiking and cycling trails, local castles, and the lovely town of Castalla just a short walk away, with plenty of bars, cafés, and restaurants. The mountain views are stunning too!
We’ve got lots of exciting projects planned over the next couple of years, so if you’re easygoing, hands-on, and love the outdoors, we’d love to have you join us! -

The Help We Need
The house needs a lot of help that we are happy to chip away at. There are a variety of projects that I have in mind, all with different scales of priority, and I would like to think that different workawayers could assist on a project to suit them and be a general helping hand and good company.
We would also be happy to help with learning, whether thats language, or local attractions, we have lots to offer. There is a fantastic history of castles nearby and you would love to see them.
Some of the examples of help that a workawayer could contribute with:
Garden/yard activities: Weeding, watering, Olive tree pruning, A Plasterer or Painter Decorator would be extremely helpful to us.
Households chores like: help move some household items, cook a meal, get the shopping in, clean up.
Light activities: fetch a tool, hold a ladder, help mount furniture, help to clear up. -
