The estate’s owners, the Arias Cornejo family, personally welcome visitors. Staying in the Estancia is an experience that allows travellers to really get to know Salta’s countryside, to share the authentic lifestyle of a working estate and to learn in detail the history of the north of Argentina, a region rich in traditions and the former battleground during the wars of independence.
Staying at the Estancia is an experience that allows you to know Salta inside, share the lifestyle of a real estate in production and learn the details of the history of the North, rich in traditions and events linked to the struggle for independence.
The main house or most important building in a estate is known as the “sala”. The sala at El Bordo de las Lanzas has kept its thick walls, sturdy beautiful ironwork and colonial doors leading to tropical but refreshing verandas. It is one of the best examples of colonial architecture in Salta.
In its rooms guests can find an important collection of furniture, wood carvings and religious paintings of the 17th and 18th centuries, as well as archaeological remains found in the nearby grounds, valuable books and centenarian documents.
On the grounds surrounding the “sala”, Graciela Arias devoted herself to design a park where local and exotic subtropical plants grow in harmony.
