Estancia La Madrugada Areco

Discover tranquillity with this history-steeped retreat

Only a few kilometres from the cobbled streets of San Antonio de Areco is where you’ll find Estancia La Madrugada Areco, a renovated farmhouse that still keeps the traditional charm of its previous structure. With its original brick walls and surrounding aguaribay trees, this estancia is the ideal stay if you’re looking for a retreat steeped in history.

The accommodation options consist of three spacious suites painted in tranquil colours. These rooms include original features that have been restored, such as window-panelled doors with wooden shutters that open onto the gallery and an exposed brick-and-wood ceiling. The rooms also showcase carefully chosen selections of antique and refined objects.

Connected to the suites by a long corridor are the dining room and its crackling fireplace, along with a living room where you’ll find a billiard table and various restored furniture. Head out onto the veranda to breathe in the country air and soak in the majestic views of the aguaribay grove and the verdant garden. For dining you can savour afternoon tea, fixed three-course menus and outdoor barbecues prepared by the estancia’s chef. All ingredients are sourced from the organic garden to create a wonderful farm-to-table dining experience.

During your stay at Estancia La Madrugada Areco you can enjoy a wide range of activities. These include horseback riding across the countryside, taking part in guitar sessions, relaxing your muscles with a massage or embarking on a gaucho tour in San Antonio de Areco.
