    Description

    Welcome to our charming B&B Equine Ranch facing the impressive Cayambe Volcano and located three kilometers from Cayambe City center. We’re situated in a lovely Andean nature nirvana within the remote Paquestancia native dairy farming community with access to more than 100 kilometers of scenic nature trails, our beautiful waterfall, communal house, dense endemic Buga forest and off grid tourism cabin, approximately 90 minutes drive time north of Quito with easily accessible convenient public transportation. We offer guest accommodations, camping, horseback riding, guided wilderness hikes, soul renewal retreats, meals and special event services.

    My name is Jeannie, I was born in the United States and during almost three decades learning to know this amazing country I’ve developed a deep love for Ecuador and the Ecuadorian people. My youngest son was born in Quito twenty eight years ago and we both live here on the property. Tania works with us Tuesday through Saturday as our full time housekeeper/cook and Franklin cares for the horses and gardens. Additional help is welcome and most appreciated as our activities are increasing and expanding. Thank you for considering an opportunity to join our team, we look forward to working together serving our guests, caring for our equine herd, our property, and the Paquiestancia community. Warmest greetings and best wishes!
