Martijn, Karin and Noah are just amazing! Very warm-hearted and welcoming people. And also Bamboo is such a sunshine, he is probably one of the nicest dogs I have ever met. โ˜€๏ธ We spent some really nice time together. Sometimes Micha and I were over to their place or we were sitting together by the fire. They had some wonderful stories to share. We enjoyed it a lot. Work was great too. Very chilled and relaxing . I highly recommend this place! We would both gladly come back anytime.๐Ÿ€

Martijn, Karin, Noah and Bamboo were the best! Mi and my partner Micha had a very pleasant stay, they always tried their best to help us :) work was nice as well, Martijn has many fun projects you can help with. Bamboo was probably the nicest dog I've met so far! We really had a great experience, would definitely recommend! Greetings from Finja and Micha PS. Micha is really inspired by goats now:D

Martijn and the family were so welcoming and helpful! We loved hanging out with the resident cats and Bamboo (pet dog). We had a lovely time working and staying at the hostel and met some friendly travellers along the way. We mainly did gardening tasks and painting during our stay, and these tasks were adapted for our abilities, skill level, travel plans and weather. Public transport options are limited, for us this was not too much of a problem as we were happy to slow-travel on this trip, however I would hire a car if I were to return to make the most of what southern spain has to offer.

I recommend this place and the host wholeheartedly. It is in a very nice location and if you go a few more miles (about 15-20 km) you will reach a beautiful, natural mountain area with lakes, climbing areas, etc... The hosts were very nice and friendly. They did what we agreed on. They were also very open about the time and work, so I had the opportunity to bring my work hours forward and finish earlier in a given week, and then I was free to do whatever I wanted with the rest of my time... So, thank you again for your openness and welcoming atmosphere. I really enjoyed being there.
