I had such a wonderful experience living on the ranch with Enrique and Esther. They were warm, welcoming, and always made sure to check in with me. I did exactly the work I anticipated: feeding, grooming, tacking up, leading guests on daily rides. Occasionally I helped with other tasks such changing sheets or unloading groceries. I had lots of down time and was able to enjoy the pool when the guests were out on excursions. We also were able to use the car to drive into town, take days off to visit other cities, or join the guests on their day trips. I highly recommend, it was a dream!

I stayed at the finca for 7 weeks and I couldn't have spent those weeks better😊Enrique and Esther are such nice and welcoming people who try their best to ensure that your volunteering experience is good. The voluteers rooms are clean and in good shape such as the kitchen which is very well equipped too. You don't ever have to worry about going hungry here and if you have any problems you can ask for help without hesitation. I got to help with both the kitchen and the farm which I'm very grateful for, I liked the fact that my tasks varied. Enriques the farm are amazing and so is the place❤️

I had an amazing experience at the horse farm. Enrique and his family are incredibly kind and welcoming, and I felt at home right away. Because my travel plans changed unexpectedly, Enrique kindly offered that I could arrive earlier, for which I am very grateful. During my stay, I had plenty of free time and enjoyed learning how to cook several traditional Spanish dishes. Once the guests arrived, I helped with preparing breakfast and was also able to join various city trips. This allowed me to see many different places in Andalucía.
I can only recommend this stay!

I can't even begin to describe what a wonderful time I had here! I stayed at the finca for ten weeks and I have been living literally every horse girl's dream. You can tell that every animal there is dearly loved. the farm are very well trained, very relaxed and responsive. The food there is absolutely amazing, 11/10!! Everybody there is so nice and it really feels like being part of a big family. And they regularly check in with you if you are unhappy with anything. On my days off I got to visit various cities, that was also nice. Will 1000% come back and I already miss everything!!!

The stay at the farm was an absolute dream and exceeded all my expectations. Enrique and Ester do everything to make you feel at home from the second you arrive. Such a warm and lovely family! The work is absolutely appropriate and was great fun with the 2 boys who work at the stables. Enrique does everything to ensure that you have a great time there. I was able to spend a weekend in Seville and really got to ride a lot. Every day you get delicious freshly cooked food from Ester that you can look forward to. For me this time will always have a special place in my heart. I already miss it!

I appreciate the attentiveness of the host, Enrique, who knew that one day I my dream is to have my own farm and possibly be a horse trainer, and I received a lot of support from him in this regard. The tasks he assigned helped me gain experience in this field, and when I asked about the farm and how he built his business, he was always open for it. In his free time, I've received riding lessons from him, in my opinion, he knows a lot about the farm and riding. I had to go home earlier because of a job, and instead of getting angry, Enrique told me to follow my dreams, made my heart melt :)

Enrique and Ester are wonderful hosts, who want you to feel at home and as part of their family. I felt very welcome from the moment I arrived. There were 3-4 other volunteers present during the time I was there and I enjoyed the exchange with people from different backgrounds, countries and ages. Experience with the farm and with life on a farm is definitely a plus as you will have to work independently at times. Unfortunately I had to leave early because of health reasons (celiac's disease). I would have loved to stay longer.

So I will review both of my experiences: My 1st experience was a special one.. very dear to my heart 🥹 I made a beautiful connection with the two other volunteers 💛 The three of us visited Sevilla Feria in April together which was wonderful, a must see! 💃 Also, the flowers in Spring on the farm!!! 🌸🌼 So beautiful! 2nd time- For the month of December I was solo. A little tough sometimes but it made me strong 😅 and it gave me time to really connect with the farm. I also spent Christmas on the farm. It was heart warming, decorating the tree with little Quique 🥹 Thank you for all 💛

We think the communication was off and a lot of things went wrong from the start already. When we arrived they had lot of guests and didn't have time for us and were not really welcoming. Maybe they had a lot of stress because of the guests, but they shouldn't let that affect us. Keep in mind that the title says ''come help us riding the farm'', but no riding for the work was done, only yard work. We decided to leave after 1,5 weeks, because we did not come all across Europe for 6 weeks to not enjoy the experience. The cooked food was great and our accommodation was very good, it was 10min walk
