Experiences
What you can add to your stay
The things that don’t come with the house and are asked for separately. Arranged before you arrive, so there’s nothing to organise once you’re here. They work equally well for a holiday, a celebration or a working team.
Level 1
So you don’t have to deal with anything
Breakfasts
Freshly baked bread, eggs from the hens and fruit from the grove, served wherever the group wants it.

Housekeeping
Every day or only when needed, whichever the group prefers. Done in the afternoon, when nobody’s in.
See more
Transfers
Our own drivers and eight-seater vans. Arranged from here and charged by the transport provider.

The shopping, done before you arrive
We do the shopping for the group and it’s in the house when you get here. You pay only for what you use, at cost.
See more
Early in, late out
The house has an early check-in and late check-out policy, subject to availability and at additional cost.

Level 5
For a celebration
Catering
For when the group grows and the house’s own meals aren’t enough.
Bar and cocktails
With a bartender. Set up in the garden or under the pergola.
Florist
On top of the ones cut from the garden every morning.
DJ and sound
Within the house rules on hours and volume, which are written down.
Photography and video
For when the day deserves to be kept somewhere.
Coordination
Someone to hold the thread of the day so the group doesn’t have to.
«It says a lot when it’s time to check out and no one wants to leave.»
Ask for whatever you need
None of this is a closed list. If the group needs something that isn’t here, you say so and we find it. That’s what has happened most often.

How they work
They’re asked for beforehand, not during
Each one depends on someone else’s diary: a cook, a guitarist, a beautician, a bakery. That’s why they’re agreed before you arrive rather than on the fly.
You don’t have to choose any. A stay with no experiences at all is a complete stay: the house, the garden, the pool and the seven hectares around it already belong to the group.
There are no packages either. You ask for what interests you and leave the rest.
R.S.V.P.
What to ask for in advance
None of this is compulsory and none of it has a form. You tell us on WhatsApp and it’s sorted before you arrive.
Each notice period is written on its own page, because everything takes what it takes: a breakfast is sorted in forty-eight hours, and a paella starts a week earlier, at the market.
