About Alan and tim

64 years old | Academic

We are a Scottish/English couple who now live in Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain. We're mostly retired (Alan is a retired academic, Tim, an IT specialist) , but we remain busy with singing in a choir, Scottish country dancing, walking and gardening. We care about the environment and try to live here as sustainably as possible.

We bought the house eight years ago and set about restoring it, blending traditional elements with the modern . We were especially happy to find a house with an apartment attached so that family and friends could come to stay.

In 2017 we decided to make this our permanent home, which then meant we could think about welcoming some pets into our midst as well. We adopted Isi and Ferdi from a cat refuge here in Lanzarote in 2019 and started keeping chickens shortly after that.

Merveilleux séjour à la Casita de Tim et Alan ! Nous avons été accueillis comme des amis , la parfaite organisation de nos hôtes à rendu le séjour très agréable, Les chats Mr Ferdi et Melle Isy sont très attachants Nous avons vite trouvé nos marques pour nous occuper d’eux et des 5 poules . La maison est confortable, très calme , et il y a a proximité beaucoup de choses à voir. C’était un plaisir de venir à Yè et de rencontrer Tim et Alan !

I had an incredible time staying with Tim and Alan. They are warm and thoughtful hosts. They made me feel at home and took great care to ensure that my stay went as smoothly as possible and that I was able to take full advantage of all that Lanzarote has to offer. I particularly appreciated the few days I spent with them on my arrival and departure. Isi and Ferdi are incredibly gentle creatures, each with their own character. They're very easy to look after, and very endearing. Ferdi is a bit picky with food, and it's hard to resist his begging meows for treats! Isi will eat anything (when she's very hungry, she can eat flies 🤣 ), and is particularly intelligent. I'd never looked after chickens before this stay, but it really wasn't complicated and they're fun animals too. Tim and Alan's house is very beautiful, peaceful, and an ideal base from which to visit the various points of interest on the island. In short: I absolutely recommend Alan and Tim. For me, they fully correspond to the spirit of Nomador: travel, animals and meaningful encounters! Thank you again for everything guys :)

Tim and Alan are the best kind of hosts you can wish for: everything was explained in detail, they made sure we were settled well and would encounter no issues, and above all, they are very kind and good company. We felt absolutely confident when they left and their preparation made it very easy for us to take care of everything without ever experiencing any confusion. Their cats are absolutely adorable and love company as well, which made it even easier to take care of them! The house is located in such a nice location, where it's peaceful and tranquil throughout the day and night. They've turned their home and land into a very nice place that's a pleasure to take care of. Given our experience with Tim and Alan, and the responsibilities that were entrusted to us, we would most definitely repeat the experience. We´ve gained a friendship along with our experience and are looking forward to see what the future holds in store!
