This late-colonial Italian Palazzo-style building is located in the heart of the Pampas near the gaucho town of San Antonio de Areco, only a few hours from Buenos Aires.

It set in luxuriant parkland and has been adapted to receive paying guests. There are nine simple, atmospheric rooms each with a jumble of period furniture.

There are two unheated swimming pools, pleasant to use in the summer months. Activities available include horse riding within the estancia, carriage drives, nature walks. You'll also be treated to a delicious Asado, a feast of a BBQ.

What our clients say

  • The estancia stay was wonderful, and a really special place to spend my 30th birthday - I was thoroughly spoilt! Our trip to Quebrada de Humahuaca with Juan was also…

    JK, North Shields

  • Highlights?: A horse ride and fishing in the Andes, seeing elephant seals close up at Peninsula Valdes and that unexpected chapel service. Wonderful memories!

    EJ, Tregaron

  • Highlight: Andean crossing to Bariloche

    HL, Rickmansworth

  • Perito Moreno was great again but I think the highlight was probably hiking in El Chalten area which was beautiful.

    PC, London

  • An excellent holiday to a fantastically varied country inhabited by charming people. An absolute must.

    CF, Sutton

  • Everything met with our expectations (and beyond) but If there was a real highlight it was probably the visit to Estancia Christina
