Estancia Patos
Estancia Los Patos
From Buenos Aires we traveld to the very cool Estancia “Los Patos”.The main building of the Estancia Los Patos was constructed by Angel Estrada in 1969 and has been recycled and also some new bedrooms have been built due to the demand of mostly northamerican and european guests.
The Estancia Los Patos has a lodging capacity for 10 persons . It has five deluxe suites with private bathroom. One of these has a king size bed and the possibility of adding a third bed. Each room is decorated in line with the style furniture belonging to the family. In all cases, the rooms are large and have a peaceful park view
The living-room is very cozy with a big fireplace always kindled during winter time. The full-board service includes American breakfast, drinks, lunch, tea, drinks and dinner.
The Estrada family, of great polo tradition, invites guests to practice one of the more exclusive sports in the world, offering them horses, all necessary elements, and a especially designed polo clinic for those who wish to be initiated in this sport. At the estancia, polo ponies are raised, broken in and trained. The polo field at the Estancia Los Patos is one of those existing in the area and its use is subject to the activities previously planned by polo players. In the polo fields at Estancia Los Patos many renowned polo players have played, among them Adolfo Cambiaso (h), who is presently considered the best player in the world, and is distinguished by most of the polo colleagues, as one of the best players in the history of this exclusive sport.
After so much wine we had to retire back to our cute little houses in the vineyard. The entrance to one of our little homes below
Our vineyard we stayed in with the entrance to our little home below.
How cute is our home above and below.
The inside with fireplace, very nice.
We probably are right when we say that one of the loveliest things you can experience in life is to go out riding in an estancia.
We did polo and rode horses it was a great time.
That’s why we have organized horserides in the ranch, it’s the best experience we can offer our guests.
Those who come and visit us want to ride on horseback or be driven in a horse carriage. We have selected our horses very carefully and you will feel good and trust your horse in a very sort time. You will enjoy during the whole ride. In that way we have a different view of what happens in a working estancia as ours. A simple way of life linked with nature and the leisure you deserve.
