Luxury Holidays At Hacienda Zuleta
Hacienda Zuleta is a traditional, working farm that has been in the family of former President, Mr Galo Plaza Lasso, for over a century. Set in 4,000 acres of beautiful grounds that comprise pastureland and forests, edged by the Ecuadorian Andes, the location offers plenty of opportunities for unique, cultural and outdoor activities. Relaxing holidays here begin with a warm welcome from the family and superb Ecuadorian cuisine, created with ingredients including vegetables, fruits, bread and milk, produced on the farm, provide the perfect comfort food. Guests of this country house-style eco-lodge can explore interesting places on the estate including archaeological sites and an Ecuadorian cheese factory, with horse-riding and mountain-biking being popular ways to get around. Those who enjoy nature will love it here and it’s an excellent place for bird-watching. The hacienda also runs an Andean Condor rehabilitation project that is open for guests to visit. At least one evening here should be spent sipping a cup of warm tea outdoors in the fresh air, before retiring to your cosy guest room where you will no doubt drift straight to sleep.
