   Description:
 

This huge old ex-hacienda, midway between San Miguel de Allende and Guanajuato, is situated outside Dolores Hidalgo in a small, safe, friendly village. Once a presidio, or fort, along the silver trail in 1567, it became a hacienda in the 1700's. Walls are meter-thick adobe. We are perfect for family reunions and vacations. We have beds for up to

30 people in your group, and we love kids! (They love us too! ) Parents love us also, because unlike large resorts, you are renting the whole place. Your children can run freely within the walled 10 acres and you don't have to

Watch them every moment.

Beautiful, rustic elegance, furnished with colonial antiques and local artisan pieces. Private, fully staffed, including cooks, maids, gardeners, bilingual manager, private massage therapists now offering spa services, and stable/pool personnel. Luxurious bedding with high thread-count linens and feather beds, plus down duvets. There are 10 fabulous suites, with private bath, satellite TV and high-speed wireless internet, propane fireplaces, hot-and-cold water dispensers, sitting area, private terraces, and beautiful views of the Sierra Madres. The pool is heated with a dozen solar panels to assure year-round comfort, and features a poolside Jacuzzi. The hacienda is approximately 50 rooms, with more than 40,000 square foot under roof, and ten walled-in private acres. There are gardens and enormous porches. We have beds for up to 30 people, and are a perfect location for family reunions, special birthday celebrations, workshops, and weddings. All meals, use of horses and mountain bikes are complimentary, and included with your rental.

Very Child-friendly. Smoking outdoors, please.

Step out your door and onto the silver trail. This is an Ideal location for visiting a different colonial town each day, or simply enjoying the best of Mexico's Bajio region. If you like, you can begin your day with a horseback ride on the original Camino Real, through the beautiful countryside. Work out in our commercial 17- piece Cybex gym, then head towards one of the lovely towns nearby. Shop for beautiful talavera pottery in Dolores Hidalgo, shop for EVERYTHING in San Miguel while you enjoy gourmet restaurants, hot springs, and golf. Wander the charming streets and cobbled alleys of Guanajuato. Practice your soccer skills, or invite the locals for a friendly game of volleyball on your private sand court. Schedule a massage with our private massage therapist. Chauffeur available for reasonable fee, also very knowledgeable bilingual guide for trail rides (horse, car, or mountain bike,) and seeing historic silver trail locations that most tourists NEVER see.

Most ex-haciendas are carefully guarded by their owners. It is difficult even to see them, let alone rent them. This is definitely not your average vacation rental. Please inquire early to avoid disappointment. We fill up very quickly.
