This is actually a 4.5 star review. Our family had a terrific stay at this lovely estancia over the Christmas holidays. With views of the vineyard, hills, and farm buildings from the infinity pool and deck at the lodge were unbeatable. We all loved the trail rides around the vast fields and nearby park land. The horses were well conditioned... More

A lovely quiet location about 2 hours drive from Montevideo. The food was great especially as I am vegetarian, a rarity in Uruguay, and a real effort was made a real effort to cater for me. The wine was also excellent from the estancia's own vineyards, delicious and very reasonably priced. I also had several lovely quiet rides out in... More

But seeing as you can't give a 3.5 I'll round it up to a 4. First thing I would say is that I totally disagree with previous reviewers that you will "feel like a real gaucho". Going on a horse trek through a vineyard and getting a tour of an animal farm does not a gaucho make! But I'm presuming... More

I was traveling with friends this past thanksgiving week and we stayed at the Finca Piedra. We arrived full of excitement and left in love with this Estancia. Sandrine and Jason are the proprietors and they were incredible. This place has it all- a vineyard that produces a Syrah I am obsessed with, settled into an amazing country side where... More

Finca Piedra is a very nice estancia in the countryside of Uruguay.Owners Sandrine and Jason together run the farm, winery and guesthouse. I've spend a couple of days horse riding and mountain biking in this place as a quiet intermezzo between visits to Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires. Very much enjoyed the life on the farm and the beautiful... More

Having covered some great places along random international vacations I gladly share this under-advertised gem in the Uruguayan 'campo'. On route from BA to Jose Ignacio our group found ourselves in the warm embrace of Estancia Finca Piedra. My travel planning tends toward an easy devolution from fast paced to totally chill and this was the absolute perfect transition between... More

We had a rough trip down to South America with two flight cancellations and a long delay on the flight that eventually got us there. Our first day was in BA where it rained all day, so it wasn't the greatest start to a vacation. Then we went to Estancia Finca Piedra and our vacation began! We stayed two nights... More

This estancia is run by a lovely family who is also producing wine on the estancia. Sandrine and Jason were running the estancia while we were there and were vey warm and helpful to arrange activities for our 2 boys ages 12 and 9. The estancia has nice vineyards and is also near a lovely area with large rocks that... More

We had a fantastic stay at Finca Piedra. The service was amazing and nothing was too much trouble for Clemence. We stayed in the room attached to the restaurant which we really enjoyed as it was close and easy. Just outside our room was a fireplace that we sat around to read our books and relax, and the fire also... More
