  Description

  Living in rural Andalucia in a cave house on 12 acres of land, 700 olive trees, 70 fruit trees, 4 dogs and 3 cats mean we are always looking for help.
  We have accommodation in the main house (cave) for up to 7 people (2 double rooms and 1 triple room), and potentially in our 2 extra cave houses.
  Now, coming into the winter season, we are looking for help pruning and harvesting the olive trees, as well as annual repairs and maintenance to the inside of all 3 caves (mostly painting).
  Any help with evening meals (vegetarian) is ALWAYS welcome.
  We are pretty relaxed when it comes to the working hours - as long as the work gets done. We are very busy day to day so will not have the time to actually do the work with you. Instruction and guidance will be provided whenever its needed. We are definitely looking for people with self motivation who are happy to get on with the work on their own or as part of a team of workawayers.
  
  We work hard and laugh hard and are looking for like-minded people.

We are perfectly situated for anyone with an interest in or love of nature, hiking, biking, kayaking, wild swimming etc. Only 1h30min from Granada and all it offers, we are also surrounded by small rural villages and towns.
