About this property

Quiet wooded Guest Cottage

Behind a charming garden gate, through your own private entrance is a cozy retreat conveniently located just 1 mile from the village of Carmel-By-The-Sea. Our very spacious studio is a pleasant walk or quick drive to exceptional restaurants, shops & galleries and beautiful beaches and all that Carmel and that the Monterey Peninsula has to offer.

Our studio is tastefully done with warm Provencal colors. The king size bed is so cozy with alpaca pillow top and down comforter. You'll enjoy a quiet & peaceful night's sleep and wake up rested for a great day's adventure.

Enjoy having your own favorite coffee or tea on the patio bistro table with some great pastries from the popular local bakeries.. In the late afternoon a glass of wine from from the own local award winning wineries along with some cheeses.

Enjoy a perfect get-away for a birthday, anniversary or special week-end or week.

Nice Wonderful cottage!

The cottage is large with a comfortable bed, nice bathroom, functional kitchen, sitting couch for tv plus an outside beautiful table next to a garden, very peaceful. Wonderful & nice owners who are very quick to help & friendly, but leave you alone unless needed for something. It is a very nice place to stay in Carmel by the Sea.

Cute and quaint

We loved Barb’s place so much. Very clean and cozy. Perfect for my husband and I to visit Carmel and surrounding areas. Comfy bed and nice amenities. All of Barb’s restaurant recommendations were spot on. Favorite being Dametra Cafe and least being Misson Ranch. Cooler weather than I expected in June, and always windy so needed jackets daily. Fog doesn’t burn off till noon sometimes so plan sight seeing accordingly. Gorgeous sunsets from beach. Love the charm and lovely feeling you get from Carmel and Barb’s place!

Great host!

Enjoyed staying at the cottage. The amenities that Barb provides her guests are exceptional. And she is equally as lovely. Great location close to everything. Got to hike Point Lobos, go to the aquarium, take some beautiful beach walks, antiquing, and do a e-bike tour of the 17 mile drive. One issue for me was that the internet is a bit sketchy in the cottage. I had a few things I needed to do for work and had to move around and sometimes go outside to get connected. But not a huge issue. Just be aware if it is important to you. Overall, great experience.

Great Holiday Stay

We stayed over Christmas and were greeted with a bottle of wine, a basket of snacks and several other sweet treats. The cottage had everything you would want or need in a home away from home. The location is in a nice neighborhood close to all the coastal activities. We did them all! The outdoor patio was so well done. We highly recommend a stay here!

Excellent location for our stay in Carmel. Barb was very accommodating and thinks of all the things you may need while on vacation. We enjoyed the patio with the bird and squirrel watching. Close to town and the restaurants are incredible. Also a great place to leave from to do some local cycling.

Clean, comfortable and quiet stay in a beautiful garden setting

The property is located in a quiet neighborhood a short drive from the village. The guesthouse is very clean throughout with high quality, comfortable furnishings and linens. The host was very friendly and hospitable. The outdoor space is a great place to start and end the day. We enjoyed our stay very much. We agree with some of the other reviews regarding the need for some clear surfaces for guest's belongings.
