Meet your neighbors:
The ranch is only 2 km from the local village where you will find open friendly people eager to get to know you. We include daily maid service not only to clean the house but to act as your liason to the village. These peaceful little villages in the mountains have their own charm. Living at the ranch give you a leisurely chance to walk into the village in the morning, enjoy the aroma of torillas baking over a wood fire and to watch the children at their simple games. Horses and donkeys are still a major means of transportation here. There are always local town festivals going on somewhere nearby and if you are interested in attending that can be easily arranged as Mexican are a hospitable people. This is part of a rural tourism initiative to provide jobs and cultural exchanges. Please join us.
