Nestled in the undulating mountains of the northern Ecuadorean Andes, near Otavalo, the historic Hacienda Piman is a very comfortable base for exploring the area. The hacienda blends modern styling with traditional thick stone walls, exposed brick and carefully chosen antiques surrounded by beautiful gardens. Seventeen rooms are spread across the manor house and garden cottages. Home cooked meals of traditional soup, and pork or trout based dishes are delicious. Also visit the nearby market town of Ibarra and ruins of Caranquí where Inca ruler Atahualpa was born or relax by the small swimming pool or take a spa treatment.
