Description
This is an estancia that retains the essence of the original Patagonian estancias. It is located within Los Glaciares National Park. The estancia was formerly devoted to sheep production, maintaining a small herd nowadays.
The main buildings of the estancia are a relic of the typically Patagonian pioneer vernacular architecture. Guests at the Hostelry, which functions in the former main house,
experience the authentic life of Patagonian estancias while the estancias everyday life carries on and it is common to see the men riding past herding the cattle and/or sheep and disappearing over the horizon. Behind the house is the vegetable garden which provides most of the fresh produce consumed on the estancia.Types of help and learning opportunities
