About this property

Idyllic Retreat in the foothills close to hiking and the beach. Private quiet.

One bedroom and bath on beautiful secluded property. Handmade home with thick plaster walls, wood windows and tile roof. Abundant outdoor space with patios and gardens, set in the midst of an organic farm. Close to hiking and the mountains , but also to one of the best beaches in Santa Barbara County. Rincon, the queen of the coast. This beach has miles of wide sand beach as well as a famous surf break.
A private retreat, but with easy access to the ocean and to the town of Carpinteria with its classic California small town beach setting. The main street leads you to the beach with charming shops and restaurants along the way. Whether it's a peaceful repose in the sun at the farm, or strolling the streets or the beach, this is the perfect getaway.

Frank and Sue are a true pleasure to have stay with us. They are return visitors and we are delighted every time they come. They take such good care of everything and treat our place as if it were their own. We miss them when they leave.
