We are looking for a practical, responsible, autonomous and healthy person to help us maintain order and cleanliness in the house and its surroundings, as well as to assist with cooking tasks and table service. We offer accommodation in a shared room, daily meals, access to the pool and Wi‑Fi. The exchange is 5 hours of help per day, with 2 days off during the week to be defined. The environment is quiet and respectful, ideal for people who enjoy nature, living together and the relaxed pace of a vacation home.
Activities & Shift
Activities are organized in shifts of approximately 5 hours, depending on the needs of the house. On the days when the kitchen is active, mainly from Friday to Sunday, it is necessary to be available to collaborate for 2 hours in each shift (08:00–12:00, 12:00–16:00 and 18:00–22:00). Collaboration is flexible and organized according to the needs of each week.

It is important to respect the quietness of the house and of the groups carrying out activities. Also maintain cleanliness and order, both in shared and private spaces, after use. White or beige clothing and an apron will be provided for volunteers to use during the work shifts. Applicants must be healthy and without addictions. No animals are allowed.
