I love the South American cultures so my reviews will be slightly biased : ) I liked everything about this place. It would have been better if I spoke Spanish. This is one of the best farm stay experiences. It's my 4th day in Argentina and I love the food here. It's a land flowing with milk and plenty of meat - meat with good flavour! This place serves good meat. There are plenty of options for vegetarians too. Thank you!

This ranch is absolutely beautiful - off the beaten track but that makes it all the more authentic. Loved the pack of dogs running around and there were obviously a lot of horses. We had a very large room with a woodburner which I'm sure would be lovely in winter. The staff are super attentive and accommodating, even with limited English. We enjoyed 2 horse rides a day (they will take you out separately if you are experienced and ask nicely). The lunch each day was a BBQ feast and the entertainment also very good. The only negative is the mosquitos and horse flies, if you are liable to get bitten I suggest you bring the strongest repellent you can get and cover up!

Diego and his hard working team are amazing! It's a beautiful and relaxing place, the food is excellent, entertainment also very good and the rooms are clean and comfortable. We highly recommend a visit!

This was an amazing experience. A beautiful house, fantastic staff, loads to do. Our teenaged children loved it. There was a pool, fussball, pool table, communal room with a fire, bicycles, horse riding, walking - just fantastic. One of the highlights of our trip to Argentina. The rooms were lovely and - as it was winter here - each had a lit stove. Really welcoming. We came with a big pile of laundry which was done for us - washed and ironed- overnight and when we came to pay, the owner didn’t charge. Pablo and his team have something really special and do a wonderful job.

We booked a day trip to this ranch from Viator and it exceeded my expectations. The previous reviews were spot-on. Great food, great entertainment, and an interesting view into the traditional Argentinian ranch life. Their demonstration of their communication and training of horses was outstanding.

The ranch has very friendly and attentive owners and staff. We were greeted with hot empanadas and cold beer, wine or soft beverage. This was followed by a horse ride through a short trail at the ranch. Upon our return to the main building, we saw the guest rooms which were spacious and comfortable. There is a small pool near the rooms and a newer larger pool with a sitting area, located about a hundred yards away. Freshly grilled meats were served for lunch at lovely set up tables in the shade outside - together with wine and beverages. This was followed by gaucho entertainment of songs, dances and horsemanship. Very courteous and attentive staff. Excellent experience.

We traveled to Igàzu, Buenos Aires, Mendoza and Patagonia. This ranch was our best experience. Fantastic service by Pablo and his team. I would strongly recommend the overnight as you will be able to spend more time on the horses. The show at dinner was totally unexpected, I won't ruin the surprise! Accommodation and facilities were luxury for a ranch and very unique. Service was the best we had in Argentina. You can see some of what they do on the"Somebody Feed Phil" series on Netflix. Special shout out to Pablo, we had forgotten a charger and he went way out of his way to get it to us.

A stunning estate and a really nice, full and fun day in the countryside. The day starts with a warm greeting, with delicious empanadas and a beverage followed by a very well run horseback ride, even for first timers. Then some R&R, followed by lunch with lots and lots and lots of food and lots to drink. And then a show. Kudos to all the staff for your huge effort to ensure everyone has a great day.
