This was the best 3 weeks during which I could spend time around nature! The Hosts are so, so nice!! I met wonderful people and ate the best food there! I hope that some day I will be able to return to Penamacor!

I really enjoyed my stay! The work is simple, can get quite hard in the sun though. Working hours where managed & respected really well. The food, sleeping & washing situation is basic, but you have everything you need! And the surroundings are beautiful, i loved it!! Martha & Fernando where great hosts, thank you!

The environment is truly stunning and there's nothing like it. There's a beautiful river, ruins, and lush mountains surrounding the farm. There was a lot of downtime where you could explore by yourself and take a swim in the river. Martha and Fernando were great hosts and complement each other very well. I love Fernando's sense of humor and Martha's the sweetest. The work, although quite different from what a city kid like me is used to, was always very fair and the hours were very respected. I really learned a lot during my three weeks here and I highly recommend this experience!

La experiencia en la quinta es unica e inolvidable! Quizas por sus hermosos paisajes, quizas por los animales y las flores, quizas por la buena compañia de otros voluntarios, quizas por las conversaciones agradables con la familia, quizas fue por las mañanas de trabajo arduo, quizas fue la lectura de libros que se mezclaban con los atardeceres, quizas fue por su cielo estrellado... Quizas fue todo eso junto!! Agradezco la oportunidad me voy mas fuerte de mente, cuerpo y espiritu!!

I stayed at the Farm for 5 weeks and loved every second of it. The hosts are very nice and take the time to answer all your questions. If you're looking to immerse yourself in beautiful nature, learn about traditional farming, get back to basics and disconnect, this is the place to go! Thank you Fernando and Marta for this lovely experience!

The place is beautiful. Me and my friend went there in winter so it was really cold (no heating). When you are hurding the cows you are supossed to go through the river, so expect to live with wet clothes for the time you are there. I think this place is even more beautiful in the summer(also because your clothes would dry way faster). The hosts were very nice and I felt really welcome :)

The house is really simple, but you have everything you need. The nature is really beautiful. It might be more fun in the summer, because it can get cold in the winter and there is no heating or warm water. When you are herding the cows you need to walk throuht a small river, so your clothes can get really wet. But the hosts are nice and the hours of work were respected. Me and my friend had a nice time :) Someting you should think about before choosing this experience is that there is no phone signal at the farm and there is not always electricity, because it only comes from the sun.

I learned about connecting with myself again, and in general I had fun and liked the experience, I only wasnt staying for longer than 2 weeks, because it was hard for me mentally to stay when I dont had anything to distract me, because there was no internet, and you were really long away from the next village, no people around, but it was like a detox, so thank you for the experience🙏

What an experience! I absolutly loved my stay at the Farm! Although I was at first a bit insecure about their lifestyle, I liked it after the first few days living it myself. The nature and the animals are amazing, and I enjoyed every second being surrounded by them. Martha and Fernando were really nice and kind, and they did their best to make us feel welcomed. I'm really gonna miss the place. I would love to come back!
