It was my first experience volunteering, and I couldn't have asked for a better place. This place is magical, very quiet and it connects you with nature and with yourself. Lola and Maca are wonderful people who are there for anything you need. Thanks for this experience, I will be back

I am infinitely grateful for this experience.
Lola and Maca, the hosts, two incredible women who run the cortijo with a lot of passion, work and above all, a lot of generosity.
A place full of magic and love, surrounded by nature and peace, that touches the skin from the very first moment.
I learned more in one month here than in years of my life.
The house is beautiful, the rooms impeccable, with a private bathroom and incredible views. The schedules are kept and the food Maca prepares is unbeatable!!
In the afternoons, if you want, Lola will teach you to work with polymer clay in her workshop.

How can I explain what the house was to me? I left a little piece of my heart behind, to return. My experience was wonderful, the house is a precious place just like those who inhabit it. It is home, it is love, it is tranquility. Thanks to Lola's wisdom, Maca's support, and Lisa's joy, I had some of the most beautiful experiences of my life. 🤍 Helping with the household chores and helping Lola in her workshop has always been a pleasure. 🤍

Heartwarming togetherness with Delfina. She helped a lot, filled us with light, and made a great contribution in polymer clay. We would really like her to come back.

It has been an incredible experience! It exceeded my expectations. Lola is a very kind, respectful, and generous person with everything, especially with her workshop and her knowledge of art; she is also very cultured, an open book, and it's impossible not to learn if you are by her side. With Macarena I learned to value nature more and to take care of what is toxic for my body and the environment in general. She is an excellent cook who delights you with her rich and healthy dishes. Taking Lisa for a walk is a pleasure. She is a very affectionate and sweet little dog. The three of them are a beautiful family and welcome you with love.

We have really enjoyed Fanny's stay with us.
A collaborator in our many tasks, a close person and an artist in her polymer clay work.
We wish you the best of luck.
