- Hi, we are Harriet and Mauro and in February 2021 we bought an abandoned smallholding in Castellón, Spain. In these videos we share our life as we restore and improve our little stone house, learn to grow and preserve our own food, and bring our 4 acres of farmland back to productivity.

I’m so glad you’re back, the new roof is looking good and will keep you warm and dry. It feels good to get rid of rubbish, it’s very therapeutic. Little Sante is growing bigger all of the time. The inside is looking good too. Take care. X
Sundays are even better with a new Video from Harriett and Mauro ☀️
Thank You for sharing your Journey🙏
Nobody is ever likely to give up on as family as yours !
Glad the chaos of the roof replacement is over now and your little one is thriving, surrounded by so much care and love.
No doubt there will be some new challenges to face in the coming months, but bit by bit , you are creating what is a really good home for you all to enjoy .
Love that she cleaned her friend's cottage like that. To me that is a true thank you.
I'm glad that you took a break from filming! I was a bit worried when I noticed that you hadn't uploaded for a couple weeks, but I'm sure all of us are happy that you took time off. Have a merry Christmas and a lovely New Year!
Hola me llamo Antonio y soy un nuevo subscriptor, soy arquitecto y me gustan éste tipo de vídeos, bueno ya haré un repaso por los videos pasados, una pregunta, Santi, tú pareja eso de tomar té es porque es Argentino o Uruguayo, un saludo de Antonio.

It’s great that you are back and seeing all the progress with the roof - it turned out fantastic! As a mother of three I can tell how exhausted you are. Take good care!
We're relieved to hear from you. With a new baby I was mote concerned by the silence than I would be.
Love your little home and future plans. The future is wide open.

Nice to see you back Harriet. You and Mauro are such hard working people and have accomplished so much in a very creative way. Bet your UK family was happy to have Santi and you visit. Cheers.
Going home will feel so much better with the knowledge your roof is now watertight. Santi looks so healthy, which is a relief for you two after all this medical goings on.
I hope you will fully enjoy the first holiday time with family, friends and pets. 💖🏡👍

The roof looks great
It's lovely to see you all back again. And it was nice to see a small part of Skipton. Did you enjoy your stay i. Skipton North Yorkshire. xx ❤
Congratulations, guys, job well done.
The roof looks wonderful!
Glad all is well. Have a lovely holiday season in your water tight home. It’s beginning to feel comfortable and secure. Santi is getting bigger and looks content. Blessings to all.🥰
Missed you, so glad the roof is done, having a bad roof in winter is nerve racking! So good you took a break to go home and shop and get some time away from all the work! The new acreage sounds like a great opportunity.
Love it!!! "Don't come in here with those crumbs!"
😂😂😂
Welcome back you three 😊 Santiago is cuteness overload ❤
Good to see that you are all healthy & well. 😊❤
The roof looks excellent. Such a relief that must be!

Congratulations on finishing your roof! I was so happy to see your video pop up.
Glad Santi is getting good care! Good to see you all. Nice to take a break, are you staying with your mom, of course you are. Have a great time.
Lovely to see you back. I was drawing while watching/listening to this vlog. I looked up & thought, ooo it's scrolled onto a boating vlog. Because you were walking along the canal I'm living on my boat on! I walked up that path with my dog this afternoon. Enjoy the festive season x
Never have I been so glad to hear that it was a mundane reason why you haven't been vlogging! Had us worried there for a while. Hope you and your beautiful little family have a lovely Christmas and a happy New Year in your leak free home xx 🎄🎅
Congratulations on your new roof! Super cosy now😊.. The most important part of the house in my view..

Well done on the driving, Mauro! And thank you for the paintbrush in the freezer tip. I'll definitely try that.
It's just wonderful that you have so many major projects and upheavals behind you and can move forward into the new year with a new perspective and peace of mind. 🥰

You guys do you guys I'll be here when you post THANK YOU. 👍
Hey I like your “Golden State Warriors” sweater being a Northern California USA resident. Things are looking good!
Welcome back! I'm so glad everything is alright. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
Merry Christmas Little Spanish Homestead family!
Oh Santi is just gorgeous!! He is getting so big and so beautiful. Glad you have gotten so much done with the house. Have missed you all!
I'm glad you're back ! Hope everything goes well 🙏 💕
So glad you are all healthy and happy. Good to see the roof all done too. Have a Merry Christmas!
Wow so many big changes on the inside of the house. Great work guys!
I really love the look of your old beautiful roof. So happy you did not put on new tiles. The kitchen is a bit like mine, I made it what it needed to be. I didn't get a new fancy one put in. Doing it on my own. like you two. It is not perfect as Mauro says, but it is warm and organized now. You probably needed a break . For a moment I thought you were in Italy. The long boats are about 3 hours north of me , before you get to Venice. Beautiful. Like you I love old things. My kitchen has a few drawers because I bought some pre made cabinets for that purpose, but most have hand made curtains. I like them. If they get dirty I just wash them. I like the homey way it feels. Your home is very warm and inviting. Thank you for sharing more of your progress and life.
So good to see you all back and seeing what you have been achieving. 🇦🇺🙋♀️🎄
Gracias familia ❤😘👍🐱🐶👪🐴
The roof looks so good! And what a fun excursion hunting around for rooftiles :) By the way love the editing on this one. It had such a nice rythmn and flow.
Welcome back! Looking forward to your future videos!!!
So happy you’re back...I’ve missed you. Happy Holidays!
I think you are a lovely family. Please give beautiful Santiago 😍 a gentle cuddle from me xx
May you stay warm and dry over the winter as your lovely little boy grows hale and hearty❤
Happy Holidays Harriet, Mauro and Santi!
Love the piece of Land from your neighbor, it has so much potential...you can turn the water deposit into a big natural pool with some water lilies 💚💚💚
Glad to see you back. The roof looks great. Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas! 🎄❤️
Missed out “as lovely a family” !
So glad to see you back, you have been missed. How little Santi has grown.
Great catch up. Hope you had a wonderful family visits and you were able to relax!
The roof looks great. The extra detail that makes it really shine is the personal labor you did in sourcing the tiles. For some reason, that makes anything look just that much better.
Heureuse de vous revoir, Joyeuses fêtes de fin d'année à vous et à bientôt
I love how you were able to give those tiles a new life. Fantastic.
Now that your stovepipe isn't constrained by the old chimney, you might want to add a section, or even insulate that section. If you ever have problems with the wood stove smoking back, or not drafting enough, that might be why. It is recommended to be about a meter higher than any part of the roof that is within about 3 meters.
Thank you for giving us some news via a new video. Wish you a Merry Christmas with your family in the UK. You will be back surely next year in great shape to continue your journey in Spain. Lots of love to Santi.
Very happy to see you back & everyone is fine. Feliz Navidad to you all.
Nothing wrong with a well deserved break merry Christmas
Roof with the old tiles looks absolutely beautiful!
So good to see you again! I admit I was getting a wee bit worried. Maybe you could add some reels or shorts to your channel? So many channels are doing this, I suspect it brings in a tidy sum!!
I made a reel once!! I need to do more 😂
