Description
We are a Spanish/English couple so both languages are used. (however, some knowledge of Spanish is needed). Although we are a couple, of many years, unfortunately there are times I cannot be at the house cortijo , therefore sometimes there is only Hipolito (Male) there. He sleeps in a flat below the main house. We are very easy going people and we live in a calm environment. We have cats but no dogs or children!
We live in the beautiful area above 'costa Tropical' in Andalucía. Although rural its easily connected by road to local towns and the coast. Only an hours drive to the cities of Granada and Malaga.
The 'Finca' produces mainly avocados but also mangoes, oranges, lemons, cherimoyas, pomegranates, guavas, grapes to name a few.
Sometimes we need house sitters. Free accommodation but buy your own food!Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
