What you need to know before your trail

Perhaps if Joe and Vicky had known what relocating to a tiny village, tucked in the Alpujarra mountains, would really be like, they might have hesitated… They have no idea of the culture shock in store. No idea they will become reluctant chicken farmers and own the most dangerous cockerel in Spain. No idea they will be befriended by an 85 year old spliff-smoking sex-kitten or rescued by a mule. Life is never dull as they embark on their Five Year Plan. At the end of five years they must decide. Will they stay, or return to the relative sanity of England? Vicky and Joe’s story is packed with irreverent humour, animals, eccentric characters and sunshine.

Travel Guide

Experience life in a Spanish Village BookTrail style

Victoria and Joe Twead leave England behind to go and live in the quiet mountain village of El Hoyo in the south of Spain. They have a five year plan so that if things don’t go to plan, they will return to the UK.

They are to build a house, new homes on the attached orchard and see how things pan out. Let’s just say they are in for a few surprises with the inhabitants – both human and otherwise!
