    Description

    We are a simple, off grid smallholding. We have chickens and ducks for eggs and meat.
    We will also be taking in some young pigs. We already have a couple of pet pigs who are funny and super clever.
    We also have donkeys and horses who are our friends and companions and you would be very welcome to spend time with them. Plus cats and dogs.

    There are two cob houses that we live in. We would like to make a cob/pallet smoke house but other tasks keep coming in to be done first. So if you would like to learn how to create with sustainable materials you would be very welcome..
    We have been collecting bits of broken pottery since forever and we would like to start making a mosaic for the outside shower. So if you are a bit arty, or would like to try, you would be welcome

    There are lots of different tasks around the farm, most associated with the veggie garden or the animals. We share all the tasks and volunteers are encouraged to learn and choose the tasks that interest them. . Plus sharing in the care of the animals -- horses, donkeys, dogs, cats ,pigs, chickens, turkeys, and ducks. We are part of the Local Food Initiative where we exchange our duck and hen eggs for other produce.

    We are a chilled out, quiet place where you can live independently and enjoy your own space.
    We have two person caravan with its own outside kitchen/veranda it is comfortable and dry. we welcome people with their own van.
    ~~~~~~


    We moved to the Alentejo in 2004 and we lived in the caravan for two years until we moved into the small mud/straw/clay eco house.

    It is essential that you like animal. I am happy to share knowledge about the horses if you are interested. I encourage contact time with the horses and the donkeys.

    We offer accommodation and food which you can prepare in your own outside kitchen, it is also good to prepare and eat food together sometimes . We are 2 hours from Faro about 40 minutes car ride from the beaches at Vila Nova do Milfontes. we are very rural so if you have transport that would be good for you but this place is ideal for people who like the quiet life and happy with their own company. Our village is only 15 minutes walk and it has a bar, shop and padaria.

    We are off grid but we have wifi

    NO DOGS because of the livestock.

    We are about 30 minutes from the Atlantic coast with some of the most fabulous beaches you will ever see and we will make sure you get out and about.
