Detalhes

Descrição
Looking for responsible/handy someone(s) to look after a farmhouse and do a bit of gardening.

We grow almonds, olives, pomegranates and other fruit and veg on the farm for our own consumption although at the moment we are just focusing on tidying up the land. There are also lots of wild plants as well as some bees for a bit of honey if you dare go near them!

Previously there was a campsite on the finca and several houses which were used for holiday lets. The houses are all still operational and need some work done, so any building or construction skills would be great. We are off grid, which means we get our electricity from solar panels and our water comes from a well so if you are good with sustainable systems or want to learn how to set them up then there's plenty of that going on here.

You will need your own vehicle as you will be up there on your own and the location is very remote. Views are second to none and closest neighbours are wild goats.

I spent several months at Marco's place and had a great time there.
He was mostly away, so I chose not to rate cultural exchange since it would not be fair.
Marco him self is very laid back and easy going, even while he was not present, he did still provide the information I need and had always an open ear.
The place has a lot to offer, especially… read more

This workaway was very special for me, After spending 3 months working in and around Marco's property I can say that I have learned a lot about myself and have expanded my skill set. During my time I did some cementing, painting, filling, carpeting, mosaic, olive processing, cleaning and fixing. I had a wonderful opportunity to improve my spanish… read more

Yes! You do need this family in your life!

I was honoured to have Sam, Ester, Aron and Efraim on our finca because they kept the place moving throughout the most difficult period we/the modern world has ever been through.

During the pandemic we suffered huge losses in terms of business and product value but Sam and Ester put in the hours to… read more

In a beautiful setting, with a variety of jobs and tasks. In our almost 5 months there (we were there just as the corona lockdown started), we pruned olive trees, built a henhouse, outdoor stairs and bench with a table, repaired and painted walls, weeded, cleaned and cleared, boarded up an oval window and more. We really enjoyed the variety of… read more

We have had such a great experience at Marco's place. The property it's a real gem in the middle of nowhere surrounded by outstanding views and a wonderful silence.
The work was never too hard and we had plenty of free time for hiking, reading and enjoying the swimming pool. Unlucky we had to leave early than what we thought but we still have… read more

In November I stayed one and a half week at Marco's place and I really enjoyed my stay. I loved to wake up whitout hearing anything and the views were breathtaking! It is away from civilisation and the perfect place to get back to your grass roots. It was nice to meet other workawayers as well and I'm still in tough with them! Some days it was… read more

Our experience with Marco was great. he lives there with another Spanish family whom are very lovely and they all welcomed us as part of their family. We had our meals together as one big family :) depending on the weather sometimes we had barbecue, and Sundays were Paela day! Yum..

Sean, Anna, Henry and Rose are the dream team that keep the proverbial ship on course no matter what the conditions. I (unintentionally) tested their resolve and was really impressed with how they overcame anything that myself or my farm could throw at them. Really inspiring actually.
Sean is bestowed with unique, rare and all in all priceless… read more

It has been such a great experience to have had the opportunity to live in the secluded hills of Lorca. It will always hold a place in our hearts; such breathtaking views & scenery which can be enjoyed on every peaceful walk in the wilds. We were fortunate to have been in charge of all the houses (acting as Caretakers for the rental properties;… read more

Randolf was the best! Always keen to get busy and kept the momentum going even on our barmy schedule. He is very good with anything pragmatic and is full of good ideas. He had a lot of good advice pertaining to the structure and upkeep of a campsite, a venture which I am keen to peruse, and he continues to help by passing on info even 2 months… read more

Thanks Marco for your hospitality, space and generous treat of your workers.

I spend just one week here as I had to leave earlier than scheduled due to personal reasons. Marco offers lots of space to develop your ideas and qualities into work, there's loads of work to be done and one can choose the work which fits best.

The area needs… read more

We really enjoyed workawaying with Marko. This is a very kind and sociable person with whom it is pleasant to spend time, work and talk on any topic.
 Our trip was planned for a month, but it turned out that we spent two here!

Calum and Jaclynne aka the hench bench bunch were unstoppable during their time here at the farm! Such fun to be around and they always found new and interesting ways to improve our space.

Calum and I truly felt a connection with Marco, he’s someone we consider a friend and in our normal life would be the kind of person we would hang out with.
He gave us creative freedom and as a result of this we were able to begin building a stone bench (which we can’t wait to see the finished product!). Due to a scheduled meeting of friends we… read more
