Farm and homestay in La Pampa, Argentina

Infos

• 

  Description

  We've renovated an old house on an old farm in La Pampa where we can live more sustainably. We're surrounded by fields and lagoons, cows and sheep and wild birds, and we're next to an old forest of Calden trees. We're about an hour's drive from the nearest city, but there's a village a short drive away for beer and snacks.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We live on a farm in a rural area, there's lots of opportunities for birdwatching (even flamingos are close by), walks in nature, stargazing (we have some of the darkest skies in the world), watching the wildlife...not so much for clubbing or dining out.
  Here guests can learn about the history of La Pampa, the locals of the area, learn about local traditions, study spanish or english, vegetable gardening, cooking, foraging, food preservation etc.

  Hébergement

  We have three guest rooms, separate from the main house, one with a private bathroom, the other two share a bathroom. All are suitable for singles or couples. There's also plenty of room for tents, if you have one and prefer that.
  Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included, we cook for everyone. We are mostly vegetarian and can accommodate vegetarians and vegans. We eat a wide variety of cuisines so you won't be bored by the food. We make our own bread, yoghurt, tofu, kimchi etc. There's usually homemade cakes and cookies and other goodies around too.

  Autres infos...

  We are a family of four, bilingual in Spanish and English, so we can help with either language. Con is English and has lived in 8 countries, Vero is Argentine and has lived in Europe. We've both travelled extensively.
  We don't smoke and barely drink, and have two kids in school, so it's not a place to come party, although nobody minds a couple of beers or bottle of wine at dinner. We're pretty laid back and friendly and like to cook and entertain friends. Relatives and friends who live nearby drop in, so there's often new people to chat with, in english or spanish.
  There's not really any public transport super nearby, but there's a couple of places we can pick you up from if you're coming by bus.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  We have decent wifi - it gets a bit spotty occasionally, but for zoom calls, emails, youtube etc, it's usually fine. I wouldn't count on uploading massive files or playing online shooters though.

• 

  Espace pour garer des vans

  We have plenty of space but no hookups and we'd prefer not to have the noise of a generator running at all hours. Access to the farm is over dirt roads which can be rough if it's been raining a lot.

• 

  Possibilité d'accueillir les animaux

  Calm dogs who aren't a problem around sheep or cows are fine.
