The Experience

Help us with daily routine with activities such as maintaining the country house and its land (e.g. new areas, restoration, painting, working in the vineyard, growing veggies, helping us in making wine ...). Also, help is needed in preparing the apartments before guests check-in. Given we are in the country side, it's mandatory to join with your own vehicle or have your driving licence (we can lend you the car if necessary)!

The perfect experience!!! Much better than a hotel. The hosts are super generous and always share their culture and knowledge. The place is gorgeous, and their dogs are also very cuddly. Some hard work, but so worth it. The place is one of a kind. Missing it already, hugs.

Hermosa experiencia, en un hermoso lugar, con hermosas personas :) Cualquier trabajo es más fácil y divertido con María y Gerri, ambos fueron muy amables y serviciales. Nos hemos sentido muy cómodos y a gusto con ellos. El trabajo más que nada fue de pintura y restauración. En nuestro tiempo libre hemos podido compartir caminatas en senderos por las montañas. Nos llevamos un gran recuerdo y dos amigos nuevos :)
