Estancia La Margarita

Visit once, fall in love forever...

Welcome to Estancia La Margarita

Stay on a genuine Argentine estancia and enjoy exhilarating horseback riding across the pampas in the heart of gaucho land. Estancia La Margarita was built in 1870, and here you can discover a way of life that has long disappeared in many parts of the modern world.

Located just 280 kilometres from Buenos Aires, the location of the estancia is perfect for many visitors to take a short horse riding holiday (see our “horse riding” section) or  a place to  experience the gaucho life. La Margarita is far enough away to avoid the crush of tourists suffered by estancias nearer to the capital, but close enough to enjoy a break in a wonderful location without “the madding crowd.”

Because Estancia La Margarita is not a day tripper estancia you will not find hordes of tourists here.  This is a traditional working estancia that has been sympathetically refurbished over the  years to provide a comfortable and homely environment. A place you can ride out daily across the famously glorious pampas, breath  pure fresh air, eat free range food ( you can even collect the eggs) and generally  forget the stresses  of city life for a few days .

We often need volunteers so please have a look at our “volunteers programmes” section if you are interested which also gives details of  the working holidays we offer.
