Product Description

No time for a siesta – the ups and downs of life on a Spanish farm

Clive and June Wolfe live in a beautiful old Cortijo in the stunning countryside of Villanueva del Trabuco , Southern Spain, with their fifteen horses, two goats, one sheep, three dogs, seven cats, and ten chickens! They run a thriving holiday business – letting out their converted barns for self catering holidays, as well as providing horse riding, mountain biking, guided hikes and other excursions. Clive is a talented builder, working all week for clients and most weekends at home renovating the farm. June is kept busy looking after all the animals, home and family, the holiday business, taking clients riding, and through necessity has become a pretty competent builder herself!
This is the story of their life now, and how it all began………..

This book is a little treasure. June Wolfe's writing draws you into her world on her little farm in Spain. When you've read it, you feel you know her! If you love animals and people, you will not be able to put this down and will be hoping for more! I've had the joy of staying at Cortijo los Lobos on two occasions, so I have the advantage of being able to picture it all in my mind as it happened. Once you have "fallen in" to "No Time for a Siesta," you will long to visit there and experience the magic for yourself. This book is the second best thing.

This book just skips along at a pace, like a conversation with a friend.
All the trials and tribulations of family life while settling into a new country and learning the language.
Animal lovers will really enjoy all the tales of grateful abandoned animals who came to share their lives with this happy family. Lots of helpful information in the pages for ex-pats living in Spain too.

True grit 3 Mar 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I read 'No time for a siesta' in the Kindle edition. For anyone considering living in this lovely part of Spain the book gives a realistic picture of the trials and satisfactions of dealing with the country, the weather and a tiresome bureaucracy. The books title says it all. The sense and sensitivity of Clive and June come across in their relationships with people and animals and they deserve success with their venture.
