Rustic mountain retreat

Escape to the beauty of the Santa Monica mountains with breathtaking views and hikes on the door step. This rustic guesthouse is across the courtyard from where we live. You can share our pool and collect fruit from our orchard. We have an incredibly friendly Pyrenees - St Bernard mix, Ozzy, who likes to co-host. But we don’t allow pets as the local wildlife is not as friendly as Ozzy! This is a place for nature- lovers who don’t mind the odd critter. Or a 20 minute drive to buy a coffee!
