If you´re thinking of treating yourself to a stay at a comfortable estancia, this is the one - go for it! It´s no longer a working farm but is a historic estancia (one of its owners was recently the subject of an exhibition at the Gaucho Museum in Montevideo) that´s been tastefully converted into a hotel. You can go horse riding, walking or just relax in teh lovely public rooms, complete with roaring log fires. The rooms are good, teh food is great, especially the merienda. I loved it!
