I had an amazing time there and ended up extending my stay because I loved it so much! Alex and Seb are super fun, welcoming, and always up for a good laugh. I really enjoyed having the freedom to manage my own schedule and decide what to focus on. If you're looking for a peaceful, creative, and truly relaxing place, this is absolutely the perfect spot. I couldn't recommend it more! I will really miss the badminton games and the amazing cooking. Wishing you both all the best for the future! Much love, Deutsche Kartoffel 🥔

So grateful for my month at the home--a delight! It's all exactly as described, with no surprises (so when they tell you it's cold in the winter, or a schelp to town, believe them!). Tasks & hours were manageable, and it was easy to work around my remote work. I appreciated that Alex collaborated to create a menu of tasks that suited my skills & interests while meeting their needs. Socially, it was easy to get the alone time I needed as well as connect with others (hosts & volunteers). Úbeda was lovely to visit! I'll miss Sebastian, Alex, and the pups! I hope to see them again soon. :)

Mi experiencia fue muy bonita. El lugar es hermoso, rodeado de naturaleza y al mismo tiempo cerca del centro de Úbeda. Alex y Sebastián son muy organizados, lo cual facilita todas las tareas. Las actividades son fáciles y, por mi parte, disfruté mucho haciéndolas. En definitiva, es un lugar que super recomiendo si buscas tranquilidad y espacios de inspiración. ♡
