The stay with enrique was fun. i met some great international people and enjoyed nice food and good company with his family. the work was mostly physical, giving straw and grain, mucking out, etc. personally, it was too heavy. i was really tired all the time. some riding was done when tourists were there. there is a lot of freedom with the farm though when enrique approves of your riding. i do think he is a bit unappreciative of the work done. i've had to remind him of the work i do and yes, sometimes i had trouble doing it all alone.

Staying at the farm&the farm was a truly great experience. They instantly make you feel welcome and like a part of their family. Important thing to mention is, the amazing food, typical spanish dishes, there. Esta is truly one of the best spanish cooks! There can be lot of work to do around the farm, but taking care of the farm and the other animals is even more rewarding. I really liked how sensitive all of the farm are trained and riden, and especially training the younger the farm was a great experience for me. I'm already missing all the animals there :))

Enrique, Estelle, Marylou, Nacho and little Enrique Jr, provide a great family environment and made me feel very welcome in their home, sometimes language barriers occurred but we were always able to communicate openly and understand eachother in the end! The experience on the farm will be a memory I will never forget! the farm, dogs, cats, goats, chickens and duck will forever remain in my heart! After a long break with the farm I got my confidence completely back in the month I spent on the farm, I would highly recommend this experience and if any worldpackers want more details contact me!

La finca has a special place in my heart. I made friends for life & had an opportunity to train young the farm after a 3 year break. Enrique and his family make you feel welcomed from day 1! They r there for u. Food is delicious (real Spanish cuisine made by queens themselves- Esther and MarieLou). Work hours r as agreed after 4h u r free & u can ride as much as u want! Farm is remote, but Enrique is willing to drive u to the nearby cities. I worked close with Enrique (training youngsters) & he always communicated with me & solved issues. You can see he has a big heart for his the farm & family <3

It didn't took long to feel like family. All the fun and the jokes and hard times everything felt so natural.What is written is what you'll have, work for four hours a day and have the rest to be with the beautiful nature,pool,be with most amazing the farm you'll ever meet, go on hakes and explore the nature by walking. They are very generous and willing to drive you to the near by town for you to enjoy Andalusia. They were so helpful with everything and explained everything. Enrique and Esther are amazing! Always there for you. Even with the hard times and mistakes they always calm you down.❤️

I had a really great experience on Enriques farm. The farm is surrounded by beautiful landscapes and the farm are great. The working hours are as promised and Enrique let's you ride as much as you want. Everyone was super nice and welcoming and you'll feel like home really fast. The other volunteer were also super nice and I've learned a lot about nature, food and even about myself. I would recommend staying here to everyone that wants to experience nature, do some handiwork and be surrounded by cute animals and beautiful the farm.

The work is 4h like agreed and you'll do it all on the morning, after that you have free time to ride or relax by the pool. Main tasks are cleaning boxes and fields and feeding. Nacho a worker in there is very helpful and nice while helping with tasks. While I was there (1month) we didn't train any young the farm, but could ride as much as wanted on hacks and arena. They happily take you to the near city and are open to give you your days off whenever you want. The communication with Enrique could improve, but we could always talk openly about necessary things. Overall I enjoyed my stay :)

The overall experience was good due to the other workers we met & being around animals on a beautiful farm. This was a great opportunity to be in nature, ride, take a step back, & learn about yourself. However, this listing is overall inaccurate. There was no “training youngsters” involved. Be prepared to buy some of your own groceries to supplement the food provided to be full. With full transparency, we experienced difficulties with the host-Enrique is a poor communicator who lacks general manners & often made things uncomfortable with the other workers as well. It's what you make it!

Dear Emily.

You will never forgive that you couldn't lead the trail rides. Training youngsters? Did you really want to train youngsters?

The first day you rode here, a 14 yo calm mare, you fell on the walk, not even troting!!. The next day you were not able to make the calmest mare we have in the stable trot!! Did you really want to ride a 4 yo stallion that has never been ridden? You even sent me messages saying how bad you felt for not showing how good rider you were!! Training youngsters? We really need help in training youngsters, but you were not the person to help on that. The other things you did, you did it well !!

And in case you don't know, if the person of the four of you in charge of cooking only prepares lentil burgers to eat, it's easy to stay hungry. She is responsible for not preparing consistent things and she is the one who made us the shopping list. And in any case, why didn' you tell me during your stay? why after you leave?

I also hope that the wine and peanut butter you bought is not part of what you expected to have here.!!

Good luck
