Colonia Wellness: Herbs, Nature & Wellbeing
A half-day experience to connect with nature and come back to yourself.
Reconnect with yourself and nature at historic Estancia San Pedro, just 15 minutes from Colonia del Sacramento. Among meadow, forest and history, this experience invites you to slow down, breathe and simply enjoy the moment.
The day begins with a tasting of Hierbas de San Pedro infusions and an introduction to herbalism. Then we explore the estancia and the forest to discover the plants around us—their scents and some of their traditional uses.
We share afternoon tea surrounded by nature, then finish among green spaces and the quiet beauty of sunset.
More than a walk, it's a moment to pause, feel, connect with nature and come back to yourself. 🌿
The history of Estancia San Pedro
The history of San Pedro is deeply tied to the development of this area of Colonia. Its name comes from Arroyo San Pedro, named after the saint and marking the northern boundary of the old estancia.
In the late nineteenth century, the property was part of a large estate devoted mainly to livestock and farming. In 1873 it was acquired by The River Plate Company, based in Manchester, England.
Over the years the land was subdivided and also saw the arrival of immigrants from different backgrounds to the region. In 1923 the main buildings of Estancia San Pedro were auctioned and later went through various stages and owners.
In 1976 it was acquired by Edward Shaw and María Padilla. Today, the historic main house remains linked to the family and preserves part of the identity and memory of the place.
In this same setting, Hierbas de San Pedro was born — a venture conceived on the estancia itself from the natural herbs of the landscape, dedicated to floral products, mother tinctures and herbal blends.
There is also a symbol especially linked to the history of San Pedro: two crossed keys, used since the origins of the area and represented historically on the main house, the gates and the cattle brand.
“History, nature and local knowledge meet in one place.”
