Estancias in Cordoba and Salta

What exactly is an estancia? It’s Spanish for something like a small country estate, or a country retreat with perhaps a farm or ranch. There are several lavish twenty-first century estancias in Cordoba and in other country provinces of Argentina which open their doors to guests. If you stay at one of these havens in Cordoba or elsewhere, you will be pampered with lavish, uniquely Argentine specialties such as dining on the freshest food possible, grown on site on a biodymanic farms, or sleeping in an antique four-poster bed in a room decorated with Argentine antiques.

Argentina Estancia living is the best way to experience the Argentine countryside.  The province of Cordoba is just a little bit northwest of Aargentina’s capitol city, Buenos Aires. This province is known for it countryside panoramic beauty and natural settings, and has some of the finest Argentina estancias in the country.

Located in Villa La Angostura, this hotel looks like a lighthouse on a lake. There are only twelve rooms and three suites, which makes it an intimate lakeside experience. The suites are up in the lighthouse tower area, with 360 degree views of Lake Nahuel Huapi and beyond. The regular rooms are built for the views as well, with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Lake. Villa la Angostura is about fifty miles north of Bariloche. Town is just a fifteen minute walk away from the hotel, and offers charm, cafes, and great little restaurants.
Hotel Aldebaran
