These holidays take place at two small hotels managed and run by warm, friendly – and experienced - locals. Their pride is omnipresent in the way in which they work to keep the hotels super clean and also in the way they greet guests like friends.
We only employ locals as guides, drivers, housekeepers, cooks, therapists & teachers not just because they are local, but because they are the soul of the area and bring historical colour and wealth of information that a guidebook could not.
We are in-debited to these fantastic people but, in the cold light of day, we realise our holidays help to keep families together for without this work, many would leave the area to find work away from home.
Energy & Recycling: In our office, we run our business efficiently; recycling all waste material & using natural resources as sparingly as possible. All guests are encouraged to act responsibly by minimising use of electricity, recycle waste packaging and in specifying when they need fresh towels. All water taps & toilets have been fitted with a device to reduce water flow, low energy light bulbs have been installed and hotel rubbish is recycled according to local authority policies.
Supporting Local Charities: We support two local charities with donations from our profit; a donkey sanctuary that cares for old or abandoned donkeys and a Home for children who are at risk.
Building Restoration: In the construction & renovation of the hotels, natural local materials where used and existing features preserved rather than replaced.
Food: We serve typical local dishes, with virtually all ingredients being sourced locally. This not only minimises packaging and supports local growers, but our meals then contain their optimum nutrition levels, being only hours from the ground to the table.
Culture: We encourage guests to explore & immerse themselves into the Spanish way of life by dining at local restaurants, visiting markets and buying gifts from local artisans and producers. And, if there’s a local festival … everyone’s invited to immerse themselves and taste the Spanish’s love of fiestas!
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
