Set into a hill overlooking olive groves and the jabalcon mountain this is a world away from the stresses of everyday life.. Sitters would have to be happy to be away from others as we are located outside of the village along unmade roads. The perfect place to relax, we have a large cave house a small cave apartment or space to park a small motorhome. The house is run entirely by off grid solar power so sitters would have to be eco friendly in their use of electricity. There is wifi available and although not as fast as some may be used to it is fast enough to stream tv and no problems with normal web browsing. When work/life allows myself or my husband may return home but will not disturb your stay with us and are happy to use whichever part of the accommodation you are not using.
Our Home
The cave house is in a rural position in Benamaurel perfect for anybody wishing to relax for a while Warm in winter and cool in summer an even temperature is maintained in the house although there is a log burner in the main house for colder weather. We are located along some unmade roads but access is good and the village is close by and you would need your own transport. Typical Spanish village with petrol station, banks , medical centre, shops, small supermarket and plenty of bars to chose from. 10 mins drive away is the much larger town of Baza with all amenities While not 5* we hope that you will find our home comfortable and welcoming and somewhere you can make yourself at home for a while.. Great area for walking, bird watching ,biking, star gazing or simply relaxing.
Responsibilities
We would expect sitters to take care of our animals and just make yourself at home. We have 3 small dogs in the house 1female 2 male (all spayed/neutered and microchipped) 1 large dog in an outdoor pen ( very large intact male, very docile ) we also have a cockatiel.. Sitters would also have to monitor the solar system to maintain electricity supply and occasionally use a key start generator. Rubbish needs to be taken to any of the numerous bins located on the main roads and if here for an extended stay gas bottles would have to be exchanged at the nearby petrol station
