After many years of visits to Santa Barbara starting in 1962, this is unquestionably the best cottage and site I have ever seen on the Riviera. Wonderful in every regard. The restoration work adhering to the original design and conditions was very thoughtful. Joe and Rose. Napa, CA

Saw two lovely little deer munching roses very early Sunday morning. There are doves nesting in the trellis with the bougainvillea just above the potted rose bush. Babies have hatched in the birdhouse. Mama and Papa birds are very busy feeding the brood. The garden, view and home—everything is so very lovely. We plan to return this time next year. Pamela, UK

Thanks for a wonderful, peaceful place to read and reflect! Kathy and Jim. Portland, Oregon
