“What a place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Mu husband and I spent several days here in June. We chose La Margarita because it was far enough removed from BA so that it is not a touristy estancia, which we didn't want. It is quite authentic and much of the food we ate is from right there on the ranch, including the vegetables. Although it was cold and rainy, we managed to get in some good rides on the pampas. We knew when we came in in the afternoon Raquel would have a roaring fire and tea set out for us. David, Susanna, Raquel & Lalo made our brief stay a real joy - the highlight was getting my husband on a horse for the first time. David then sent us a very nice photo album with the pictures he took. Dreaming of returning during warmer weather. Raquel's food was fabulous!

“Learned how to ride a horse, felt like I was visiting a friend's country house”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 September 2011

My two sons (10 and 12) , my husband and I stayed at the estancia during the Argentinean wintertime, for three nights. The place is so relaxing and charming , you feel as if you are visiting your great aunt's ranch. We loved how the ranch has been maintained in it's original (well maybe not original original) condition and one feels like he has stepped back in time fifty years ago. If you go, you MUST visit the pulperia nearby. We went in the evening which made the pulperia visit all the more dramatic as we could not believe people still operate businesses in that manner.
At the estancia we stayed in the rooms in the main house and took all of our meals and tea in the dining room. The beds were comfortable and the fireplace vital. We rode horses twice a day and by the end of the visit we could actually trot! It was a pleasure to see my city sons ride gaucho style through the pastures. The horses were well maintained and responsive to their riders, they were't lazy trail ponies we have found on trips to the Western US. The people who work at the ranch are absolutely lovely and make you feel right at home. I recommend this set

“Great Escape for the family!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 July 2011

person found this review helpful

After many visits to our favorite Estancia, this one tops the list. We arrived and stayed in self-catering accommodations and rode horses twice a day in the beautiful pampas. My family and I were treated with open arms by the entire staff, David, Susanne, Raquel and the "gauchos", who accompanied us on our horse rides. My children were able to enjoy their first horseback rides. It was an event not to be missed. A sadness overcomes us all when we have to leave our retreat and head back to the hustle and bustle of Buenos Aires, but fondly await our opportunity to return to this hidden oasis. -

“A beautiful and peaceful escape from the big city!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 March 2011

My second trip to the Estancia and just a good! It's pure tranquility....ride horses through the pampas, relax by the pool (or fire depending on the season!), taste local wine, enjoy a traditional asado, watch the sunset and see the milkyway appear. The staff make the stay really personal and you are looked after from beginning to end, for me it's the perfect city get-away. Enjoy!

“Tranquility & Peace followed by great company”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 March 2011

If you like horses and typical farm animals together with ostrich chicks then look no further, the food is fantastic all home grown local produce, we had two days of being the only people here waited on hand and foot followed by the arrival of various Argentinians until the place was full, all of whom were great company for lunch and dinner also the horse riding through the pampas grass and open farm lands. Lots of wild life and the local town of Talpaque is worth a visit. No tourist rip of here it was just the ticket and we will be going back soon.
