If you want to hang out in the countryside for a while with no distractions and nothing to bother you, this place is perfect. Monica and Miguel strike the perfect balance between being very friendly and giving guests their privacy. The food was delicious. The rooms are clean and pleasant.

In case you like horses, El Galope is the place to visit and stay! And even if you don't like them, but are interested in perhaps trying them out (like me), it is yet again the right place for you. We were visiting Uruguay for few days and spent one night in El Galope, arriving early in the day from... More

“Very relaxing stay”

Reviewed 14 April 2013

We had a great one night stay at El Galope on a trip over from BA. The setting of the farm is lovely, right in the middle of the Countryside. It was an easy trip from BA on the ferry and then a 45 bus journey. We had a double room en-suite which was very comfortable. We hired the bikes... More

“Very peaceful”

Reviewed 14 March 2013

I really loved the quiet, peacefulness of this place but be warned there is very little to do. The house and surrounding are absolutely beautiful and the hosts are very very pleasant and private at the same time. There are 3 dogs and two are rather friendly!! We went on a bike ride and to be honest, I am pretty... More

“Peaceful surroundings and wonderful horses!”

Reviewed 4 March 2013

We enjoyed our 2 nights at El Galope. Miguel and Monica were great hosts and our fellow guests were very interesting. It was a welcome change of pace from Buenos Aires. The night sky was incredible, with more stars visible than we can remember ever seeing.

“Perfect isolation”

Reviewed 1 March 2013 via mobile

Loved this place. Stayed 2 nights, just enough time to relax and unwind after some frenetic travelling. The owners are really nice and friendly. The rooms are sparkling clean and comfortable. The kitchen/lounge is great to relax in, as are the hammocks dotted around the grounds. Horse riding lessons are available every day and you can take a walk to... More
