    Description

    My companion, Amelia, and I are creating a little paradise on our 2 acres of land here in a beautiful mountainous area in Nayarit, near to the Santa Maria del Oro crater lake. Amelia is Mexican. I was born in England and I acquired Mexican nationality after living in Nayarit for many years. We both love to travel and meet people from all over the world, especially those with a sense of humour! We enjoy having international visitors here as guests and to learn about their home and experiences. I am a keen gardener.

    There is a taxi service based in the nearby town of Santa Maria del Oro and I am sometimes available to take you in my car to and from town to do some shopping.
    A stream with a swimming hole borders the property, there are shade houses, a barbecue area and outdoor kitchen, table football and a pool table.
    We maintain a huge tropical garden with fishponds and many exotic plants.
    It is a beautiful area for hiking, biking (we can lend you two bicycles), bird watching and kayaking (you may rent kayaks at the lakeside). If you enjoy being in close contact with nature then you will love this place!
