Description
Andrew (Greg) & Barbara (Ellie) and two very friendly dogs Archie & Phoebe, now into our fourth year with the orchard and farm house in the heart of the Valencia region. Our finca is in good condition but still lots of interesting jobs inside and outside in the campo. Ideally we are looking for people with good level of Spanish as our new year resolution is to get fluent this year.
Note: The type of work here means we only offer places to those over the age of 21
We are only 2 km from the nearest railway station. Valencia is 40 minutes and very easy via train. It's a short drive to the mountain area with some testing walks and great views. There and plenty of beaches within a 30 minute drive and many places of interest nearby. We have a couple of bikes you can use anytime and it's very quick to get into the local town for shops and bars etc.
This is a normal workaway with around 20 hours per week in exchange for food, drink and accommodation.
Usually we work from 11:00 to 16:00 in winter and 08:00 - 13:00 summer. Ellie usually does the daytime meal but the rest of the time is yours to do as you wish. You have your own kitchen and lounge or we can share evening times also.
The work outside can be weeding, pruning, mulching, picking fruit and various landscaping projects. Inside there are some repair jobs, decorating, furnishing, cleaning, painting etc for when the weather makes it difficult to be outside.
It is important for us that you enjoy your stay, so we are flexible with the type of work you prefer.
Workawayers do not need any specific skills but must be fit, healthy and willing to learn new things. We do expect good hygiene and tidiness and rest assured that all work must be safe with protective equipment as necessary.
Only one rule is no smoking near to the house! This is a healthy place with lots of fruit, vegies, nut and olives

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Silvia)
Silvia was only with me for 10 days but made the most of her time here. Always getting involved in whatever work was needed and using her free time to explore the area and make new friends. A very pleasant person to have around in every way. I would definitely recommend Silvia to other hosts.

We spent a delightful three weeks at Greg's orange and avocado farm. The accommodation is very comfortable, and Greg made us laugh a lot. Thank you for truly making us feel like your house was ours (mi casa es su casa). All the best with the renovation and farm projects.

Together they made a great contribution to the 'campo' by clearing, weeding, pruning and burning. Also they are both very good cooks and they provided such great meals.. I was lucky to be… read more

Greg is a very nice and easy going host that does not expect you to work too hard! I actually wanted to work harder! The living situation is also very nice, the farm is set in a lovely, fairly remote area but which is easy to access via train and the rooms are spacious with comfy beds (and nice and clean). There is plenty of work to be done but it… read more

Carmen came on her own because her husband was stuck in the US. She was very proactive and motivated to address all of the help I needed. Very fit, energetic and an excellent cook.
Her stay, unfortunately just one week, was immensely productive for me... and the help with Spanish language and culture absolutely fantastic. Would thoroughly… read more
