Home cooked meals for hard working ranchers !!
For over 100 years, Hacienda Guachipelin has been a working ranch. In 1975, Tomás Batalla Esquivel, a renowned cattle and pure bred Spanish horse breeder acquired the property. In recent years, don Tomás' children have joined their father in his efforts to further the family legacy.
The property comprises 1600 hectares of land, of which 700 hectares are set aside for the conservation of the tropical dry forest; 575 hectares are used as pastureland; and 325 hectares are being reforested with species in danger of extinction. The cattle herd consists of 200 breeding Braman cattle, with Simmental bulls; and 50 pure bred Spanish mares, with a pure bred Spanish stud. |
