Descrição
I live near arguably the most beautiful of all Pueblos Blancos (white villages) in Spain, Zahara de la Sierra. I am retired having travelled a great deal in the East including Nepal, Thailand, Burma,India, Laos etc Ihave lived in both the Caribbean and Malta and the only thing I regret about being here in Spain is that I didn't come sooner. I have a son and daughter, Rob living in Barcelona as a Voice Actor and Kate in London working with Qatan Foundation. I ran a charity for destitute children in Nepal for 21 years, but have now merged with another similar charity. Prior to our coming to Spain we lived in Cambridge, UK

Ajuda
I am looking for a couple or two friends, to help in my house and garden in Apŕil. Preferably over 25. Help may include general handyman work, shopping, cooking and gardening, but all to be agreed. IAt least one of you must be a driver. I will try to stop Sam my extremely friendly lab, from helping you, but he does think everybody needs and loves him so we´ll have to be strict (ho ho)! Also we have recently had the addition 2 of kittens so animal lovers would feel more at home!

Acomodação
We expanded and restored our 200 year old Finca 18 years ago. See pics. You will live in our main twin bedded guest bedroom which is large, has french windows onto the garden and pool, and an ensuite bathroom. You will be welcomed to live with us as family and use our large Salon which has TV, DVD, music etc. and is probably cluttered up with my dog a cat and two kittens. Kitchen, dining terrace etc. I have numerous photographs we can send if it would help make your decision.

My Finca is in a really beautiful valley and sits at the confluence of 2 rivers, one of which has pools in which you can swim. The views to the mountains from our terrace are staggering, as is the view to the village Moorish castle floodlit at night. Our village, arguably the most beautiful of all the Pueblos Blancos in the Grazalema Natural Park, is a 6 minute drive or 40 minutes walk, overlooks a very beautiful 5 mile long lake and the village has numerous restaurants/tapas bars, little general shops, a post office and health centre. We re only half an hour away from Ronda and one and a quarter hours from Seville, 2 hours from Cadiz and surrounded by Los Pueblos Blancos, the Andalucian White Villages.

I could not have wished for a more thoughtful, hard working couple - and such great company as are Leah and Christopher. Not only that but they are great cooks, love cooking and I must have gained several kilos after their spoiling. Without them moving house would have been a trial. Their selfless work made it so much easier and I will be forever… read more

Layla is such a sweet, intelligent, funny and social person. We loved meeting her and spending time with her. The tasks were nice and good organized, most days we did around 4 hours of gardening or cleaning and later in the day some hiking with Sam (for sure the kindest dog you will ever meet!) and cooking. We felt at home so fast, the house and… read more

I stayed one week with Layla and had such a good experience ! I loved the evening talks with her. She’s so inspiring to talk to, from her solo-travelling in Asia to her charity work in Nepal.
Her positive attitude to life and calm personality were like daily rays of sunshine. She is also an amazing cook :-)

The house is located in a peaceful… read more

Margery came to work for me for several weeks and was a great workawayer in all respects. A hard worker, excellent company, we shared an interest in cooking and we had great fun experimenting together. I most strongly recommend her.

I had the most enchanting fortnight last autumn with Layla. She is such a warm, welcoming person and incredibly interesting besides. We ate and drank superbly every night, but it was the conversation that went with those meals that made them really special - well, the conversation and the view of her very private garden. I cannot recommend staying… read more

Ilya and Federico stayed with me for several weeks doing so much more than I asked for, and always cheerfully and willing. When I was recovering from an ilness they literally ran the house, cooked, cleaned and tòok my dog Sam, for an hour's walk every day even when it was raining which it often was. Sammy misses them as do I. I most strongly… read more

We spend an amazing two months at Layla's place. We were helping in and around the house with all sorts of tasks. Further we cooked and walked the dog every day. We had our own room with bathroom with all comforts needed. In our free time Layla let us use her car to explore the area. This region of Andalusia is absolutely beautiful and offers… read more

Volunteering at Layla and David's place was an absolute pleasure. They are warm-hearted, well-travelled, great company and made us feel really welcome in their beautiful home. Layla and David ensured that we had everything we needed and more for the duration of our house-sit. The 'zoo' of 3 dogs and 2 cats are cute, cuddly and affectionate and… read more

Graham and Carolyn were the most perfect workawayers. Interesting and charming people who were responsible and hard working and a joy to have around. We will miss them very much as will our animals who they spoilt with walks and affection. anybody who has the luck to have them as their guests will agree we are quite sure.

Jason and Laura were an utter delight to have in our home. They were eager to help with anything, and did far more than I would have thought possible, from gardening to cooking, animal and house sitting, painting our gates and 'rejas' the iron bars Spanish have outside their windows. They fell in love with our dogs and they did them and it was… read more
