Paul, and James are very lovely hosts. Both of them respect your times and don't push you for do something instead of asks everything as nice as possible. My experience with them was absolute good. They are very helpful and accommodating. I truly recommend them! But place is kinda isolated and not too much option to socialise in village but if you are tired of the chaos that cities bring. Absolutely try this experience

James and Paul are lovely people who made us feel very welcome. We mostly harvested olives during our stay there but also took care of their lovely dog Leo and their chickens. It is very quiet there and the landscape around the Finca is very beautiful. There is a bus to Málaga three times a day and James and Paul always offered us a lift to the bus station. All in all we had a great time and we would recommend it to other travellers if your looking for a quiet time away.

I spent two weeks with my partner at the guest house. We just met Paul, who made us very welcome. Our tasks were basically to keep things clean, organize and clean the two rooms they rent out to guests. We also did some gardening and picked some olives. It was easy to fit in around our remote jobs. The property is very beautiful, it's quiet, and the nearby village is really nice. Overall, I would recommend it to other volunteers.

I spent 3 weeks here with my partner and loved it! Paul and James were very welcoming, always happy to answer any questions or give suggestions. The property is a bit isolated however the village is easy to get to and it was easy to get into Malaga for day trips if you wanted. The work was a nice change of pace from doing daily chores to some maintenance work. Overall I'd highly recommend this work away!

I had an excellent experience on my first volunteering trip. the guest house is situated in a beautiful, tranquil region, offering stunning scenery—a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of big cities. Paul and James were welcoming and always treating us with respect and attentiveness. My volunteer partner, Olivia, was great company during the workdays; we had fun together and delivered outstanding results. The animals at the finca were also excellent companions during our downtime, especially Leo, a gentle dog who was always by our side.
