  Lovely retreat.. we were basically alone on the premises. The gardens and outdoor areas are well maintained and peaceful but a lack of adequate conservation measures inside the home means that this place will not be of this quality for too much longer.. I could smell the furniture dry rotting.

  It's a very awesome place to go enjoy all types of gardens and the design of this place is incredibly beautiful I wish I own this place I'm rich enough to live in this house.

  As beautiful as the city of Guanajuato is, it is surrounded by tourist traps of all sorts, including bogus or crappy museums (made for the sake of sucking every last penny or peso out of the inadvertent tourist) for every taste. San Gabriel the Barrera is among the honourable exceptions. Located outside the downtown area of the city, it's easy to miss it, yet worth it.
  The house of the hacienda has been rehabilitated in proper fashion & they offer free guided tours (you need to tip the guide), our guide was very knowledgeable & spoke very decent English, making the tour inside the house very enjoyable for my Canadian friend. After that you can feel free to wander in the gardens which are beautiful & well kept. You can buy a bottle of wine at the café in the museum to accompany.

  Historic mining hacienda well worth the visit. Do allow a guide to explain the history of life In those times. Paying the guide small tip is more than worth it!

  Bellisimo! Puedes pasar todo el dia en este sitio.
  La entrada es muy economica y tambien se les cobra addicionalment para tomar fotos pero super economico! El tour guide era muy buena onda y en verdad sabe como contarte de la historia de la hacienda.
  Gorgeous place to visit you can really spend all day there! The entry fee is very economic and they do charge an additional fee to take photographs (but like i said very economic) If youd like they even have a small outdoor restaurant where they will serve you food/beverages. This place is also available to rent for events/parties.

  This place is beautiful, you can spend a few hours walking around. I recommend visiting early morning. Do not leave guanajuato without seeing this place, read a little of the history before going. Take a bus from downtown guanajuato. DO NOT MISS YOUR STOP! Or you will have to walk a long way back.

  This hacienda is definitely a place to go to when in guanajuato. The grounds are beautiful and the staff is helpful. They were making improvements on the grounds at the time but it did not distract from the beauty of this place
