Company information

Hi there - We’re the Elwes family! We've lived and travelled to many places across Europe so we appreciate the joy of feeling at home in new places and love to host! Our daughter Emily, who mostly lives from Barcelona, Spain, helps us manage our listings, so if you're thinking of spending time with us you're likely to be chatting to her (she's the tech-savvy one)! Based in the countryside we love sharing our farm, yurt and house with guests. On an average day you'll catch us looking after our sheep, gardening and fixing things in the farm. We have a great love of all things creative, holistic and historical.
