Unfortunately this was a very poor experience. It had its pros, but the cons were too extreme. Starting from the pros, the place is amazing and the views are astonishing. The food is fresh and natural. The animals are lovely. You learn a lot. The cons are anything else. The hosts are passive aggressive and very strict and rigid with arbitrary rules, like being unable to eat until we all start to eat (you'll eat cold most of the time). The tasks are not the agreed upon, you'll have to help with the cooking and cleaning, even with guests. The hours are close to 40 not 25.

I had a great time here! Always surrounded by nature and wonderful animals. The balance between working and free time was perfect! The work is not hard and variates between many things like gardening, animal care, cleaning, stocking wood or helping to make jam or creams. There are also a lot of things to do in your free time like drawing, painting, crocheting, making jewellery, sewing, etc. They have four wonderful big dogs which are always happy about some cuddling or going on walks. So if you love nature, being off grid, animals and a lot of peace and quietness this is the right place.

It was an interesting experience. 😊👍👏 The place is amazing, as are the animals. 🐶🐱🐴 The work is easy, and you do it together as a team, which is nice. 🤝❤️‍🩹 There was only one thing that wasn't so nice, and I have to mention it.I came to the place to get in touch with nature in exchange for work, and I was always nice to the hosts and did everything they ever asked me to.But at one point, a host started to talk to me in a very rude manner, explaining in me not being actually friendly with them and their guests, considering that they spoke Spanish between each other i did my best..

Experiencia con altibajos. Al principio bien: los anfitriones eran agradables y las tareas las disfrutaba a la vez que aprendía. Pero después, se volvieron más exigentes, riñendo y de mal humor en lugar de comunicarse amablemente, creando una relación desigual donde teníamos que aguantar las malas formas, y generando una situación incómoda (a veces agradables, a veces bordes). Además, las horas reales que hacíamos eran bastantes más de las 25 horas del post. Llegué con ganas de aprender y trabajar, pero todo esto me fue desgastando hasta perder la motivación.

Isa y Humphrey son personas muy majas que me aprendieron un montón de cosas. Tienen una experiencia inestimable y les gusta compartirla. Fue unas semanas inolvidables en un lugar muy bonito, tareas muy varias y gente local muy interesante. Esta experiencia me permitió tranquilizar la mente mientras trabajando y descubriendo la Sierra la reserva y la vida (super) rural. Todo está muy cómodo, se come muy bien y nos proponen diferentes actividades durante el tiempo libre. Gracias mucho a vosotros dos, fue un placer conoceros y volveré en el futuro ;).
