Cottage

Hi I'm Jane! Ever since I was young, I’ve always known I’m happiest living an outdoors lifestyle in the sunshine, in the countryside and close to the sea. After many years of corporate life, I own Finca La Cantarera and bit by bit I'm developing and improving the farm, to create our true habitat for humans.

I wanted to escape the rat race, an exhausting weekly routine of a repetitive lifestyle that leaves little time for relaxation or enjoyment.

Finca La Cantarera has 19 acres of land, a mixture of clay and loamy soils, mainly left to grazing pasture. It’s a wild habitat, purposefully kept like that to attract wildlife, to nurture the bird life on the migratory journey across the Straits. To allow the ecosystem to thrive, to encourage our own development within nature.

Each day starts with watching the sun creep over the hills. At the moment the herd brays for the morning feed, the insects buzz, birds tweet and chickens squawk to be free to forage; the day is fresh, clean, energised and ready for activity!

Nature and animal life is a huge part of our lives at Finca La Cantarera, we invite you to share it with us. Horses, donkeys, goats, dogs, ducks and chickens make up our menagerie. Henrietta (our head chicken) can be persuaded to share an egg or two, subject to her laying schedule! Our animals live a natural life, in herds, flocks and packs, they are naturally inquisitive and will want be curious to see you.

- I love being able to walk into Tarifa town from the finca!
- to be able to hike or mountain bike into the countryside directly from the finca
- to ride my horse in nature
- to be a 5 minute drive from the beach
- to have tranquility and peace
