Francisco moved down to southern Spain after serving in the Spanish military to start his own construction business. Starting out doing his apprenticeship as a plumber, then learning to be an electrician, before moving on, constantly augmenting his abilities in this profession, which clearly stood him in good stead when he & Tracey converted the old stables - doing all the work themselves. Sports bikes "were" his passion, having built his first ever motorbike from scrap parts when he was only 14 years-old and gone on to tour most of Spain at great speed in his spare time!
Tracey, although horses had been a life-long hobby, made her way in the catering industry as a restaurant owner, before moving to Spain in the late 1990´s with her then young daughter, where a few years later she met Francisco - the other half of her orange, as they say here! Having expanded her equine hobby to become a small business, Francisco soon learnt to ride a horse, instead of a metal steed, would be the way to her heart and they have trekked many trails together since ;)
Both love the outdoor life, competing in Endurance riding whenever they can. Francisco makes a mean paella (no really, we aren´t biased!) and Tracey´s homemade bread barely makes it from the oven to the table. They are busy, and you will see them around as they tend to their animals, but they wont be in your way - unless you need them. They love nothing more than a great BBQ when all the family is together, Tracey´s daughter and Francisco´s two sons and some good friends for company. Obviously fluent in Spanish and English you can be assured they will help with any problems you may have and resolve anything within their power to assure your holiday is the best ever.
