Where you'll sleep

Nineteen rooms, one ranch

Cábala takes over Rancho de la Osa entirely — every room is ours for the weekend. They are historic adobe: thick walls, a wood fire in most, no two alike, and each one named for someone who actually slept in it. Rooms are booked whole, not by the bed. (You'll notice there's no room 13. There never has been.)

Where they are

The ranch's own guest plan — three rows around the courtyard and the bonfire. Pick a room to jump to it.

Plan of Rancho de la Osa: the main hacienda with the ranch office and dining room in the centre, the cantina and heated pool to the north-west, the group meeting room to the north-east, a bonfire in the middle of the courtyard, and the corral and riding arena to the south. Guest rooms run in three rows: 10, 9, 8 and 7 along the north, 11 to 18 down the west wing with 19 set just off it, and 6A, 6B and 5 down to 1 along the east.

How rooms work

Each room sleeps up to five. The beds listed are the beds that are in the room — anyone beyond them is welcome to bring a sleeping bag or their own arrangement, and the ranch knows that's how we use the place. A room is where you sleep, not your entry: every guest still needs a weekend ticket.

Rooms that connect are noted above, which is the easy way to put a group of eight or ten together. Prefer the stars? There's camping on fourteen acres instead.

Rooms open for booking when the next edition's dates are announced. Join the list and you'll get the window before everyone else — or read the policies first.
