If you like animals, you will be pleased to meet, dogs, chickens, frogs, horses, goats and also deer, and foxes. You can also bring your own dog. Volunteers will have the opportunity to reconnect with nature and share their musical, artistic and culinary skills or whatever talents they have. They can also keep fit working on the
smallholding
Warning: There isn't any supermarket or shopping mall in Oteruelos. There's just a bar/cafeteria/bar open in the summer.

Porque Oteruelos es un pueblo precioso perdido en la naturaleza con lugares realmente mágicos. Los voluntarios se encontrarán un lugar donde podrán disfrutar de la tranquilidad y compartir sus conocimientos culinarios, artísticos, musicales o de cualquier otra índole. Ponerte algo en forma trabajando el huerto. Y si te gustan los animales te encantará conocer los perros, los gatos, las gallinas, las ranas, los caballos, las cabras y si tienes suerte los ciervos y los zorros. Puedes traer tu perro también.

Normalmente estamos Tadeo mi hijo y yo y algún amig@ que se quedan temporadas por aquí. Los trabajos serán principalmente de ayuda en la huerta (conocimientos de permacultura bienvenidos) preparar la leña, las tareas de la casa , ocuparse de Ali, la perrita, y de las gallinas. Y tareas de mantenimiento en el gallinero, la cochera y en la casa. We are Tadeo, my 17 year son, and me. And occasionally we have friends staying small periods. The main tasks are working the smallholding and in the garden ( pruning, trimming, watering, weeding, planting vegetables and bushes) plus household chores and garage and chicken shed maintenance.

I loved my stay in Oteruelos. Santi is a welcoming and friendly host and he is always willing to teach you new things. I feel like I’ve learnt a lot from him. Ali and Pou are the sweetest dogs and you can get to know the village and its people just by walking them around.
The daily tasks are pretty simple but every once in a while you get an harder task (part of the challenge).
If you are looking for a quiet and calm place to connect with nature and animals this is a great one.
There are not many ways to get to the city but Santi always finds time to get you there and show you new places.

We absolutely loved our stay in Oteruelos! Santi went above a beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. The work, which was mainly helping in the garden and cooking, as well as some cleaning, was done by the afternoon so you get the rest of the day to explore both Oteruelos and the neighbouring towns thanks to Santi offering to drive us around, as well as the bikes we were able to use. We will especially miss the beautiful dogs Ali and Po and the lovely walks we went on with them. It really was an unforgettable experience and we are so grateful for our time here.

Our stay in Oteruelos was wonderful. Santi is a warm and welcoming host who made sure we felt at home throughout our stay and went out of his way to show us local attractions. We enjoyed lots of good food, spending time with the 2 beautiful dogs, and our daily duties were mainly outdoor tasks in the garden and nearby forest. We are very grateful for the incredible time we spent with Santi!

My stay at Oteruelos was amazing! Santi is a very good and welcoming host with a lot of stories to tell. My daily tasks were working in the garden, taking care of the chicken, going for walks with the dogs and making lunch.
Santi was so generous to drive me and the two other volunteers around to show us some stunning places in nature or even Soria.
The two dogs were soo sweet and intelligent, I will miss them dearly.
A thing you should keep in mind is, you have to rely on Santis car or go by bike, otherwise the place is not reachable easily by public transport.
Thank you!

Este voluntariado fue una gran experiencia para mi, fue mi el primero que hice y me sentí más que bienvenida, además Santiago es muy amable y flexible con las actividades, las cuales pude desarrollar sin ningún problema ya que eran sencillas. Finalmente pude conectar con la naturaleza y aprender sobre ella y estoy enteramente agradecida por esta experiencia.
