Why to come to Estancia La Margarita?

When the Aguiló family decided to open the doors of La Margarita in the
early 90s to guests and rural tourism, they had no idea what visitors would think of
their estancia. Although they themselves passionately loved the clean,
fresh air and wide-open skies of the pampas, they were uncertain whether vacationing
tourists would feel the same way.

They need not have worried. Reading the comments book at the estancia makes it extremely apparent that from the very first day, those who came were overwhelmed by the peace, tranquility, and friendliness at La Margarita. Visitors from all over the world comment again and again on how beautiful, calm, and peaceful the estancia is. They describe the delicious food, great horseback riding, and warm staff. The words “fabulously rewarding time”, “didn’t want to leave”, and “the real Argentina” appear constantly. There is no better proof that La Margarita offers a unique opportunity to experience Argentine hospitality than the testimony of satisfied guests.

Located just 280 kilometres from Buenos Aires, its location is perfect for many visitors. 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 weekend break in a wonderful location without “the maddening crowd.”

 What can you expect to find when you come to La Margarita?

Pass the tiny white-washed school and a few small houses, and you arrive at start of the grounds of La Margarita. Driving through the entrance and up to the main house, you will notice the wonderful trees and woods on the grounds.
