So nice to hear running water from the fountains while you relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. You can even feed the animals and pick your own lavender ;-) Close to all surrounding towns and winery's, couldn't be better.

We cannot say more good things about this property - location, charm, views, gorgeous sunsets, stargazing at night, Jen's kindness and hospitality, the animals - it was an absolutely perfect getaway.

Also liked the outdoor spaces and all the views were spectacular. Great location for wine tasting and close to Solvang and Los Olivos restaurants. ##### Susan and Jim L.

It is even more beautiful than the images in the listing. We stayed here over the weekend when we got married in the area and the location, surroundings, the amenities Jen offers are truly unbeatable. We are already planning our next stay here. If you are looking for a peaceful gorgeous serene place to stay this is it! ##### Ann K.

Anavo farm is amazing! The converted carriage house is beautifully transformed into a private cottage, and every detail to make our stay comfortable was attended to. This is truly a special place. I can not recommend Anavo Farm more highly. Jen was the perfect host. We will stay here again without a doubt. ##### Mike F.

The cottage is lovely- beautiful views of the pasture and mountains from both upstairs and downstairs. Close to towns, while still feeling nice and unplugged. There was a welcoming bottle of wine and miscellaneous snacks- which was great after the my drive, and the animals were very sweet and friendly. Comfortable bed and couches upstairs and down. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Lise B.

The views are fantastic and the property is full of whimsy. The outside garden is beautiful, with hummingbirds all around and lizards darting about. The aromas from the lavender and wisteria are intoxicating, and the firepit is perfect for a chilly evening with a bottle of wine. The unit was clean, well-stocked and roomy for two people. We loved the décor and the vibe, and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended! ##### David P.

It's beautiful, inviting, well appointed, quiet and private and thoughtfully designed, even more gorgeous than the pictures. But more then anything else, both my husband and I felt like our hosts really just wanted us to feel taken care of. From the variety of snacks waiting for us in the kitchen, to the thoughtful guidebook with tons of local recommendations, to the bathroom that had anything that we might have forgotten at home. At every turn, this marvelous place made us feel well taken care of. We've travelled all over the world, and accordingly rented endless lovely apartment. But it's the care and consideration put into Anavo Farms that makes this our new favorite spot. ##### Lee J.
