Stay in Cambria's..."Her Castle"* Homestay Bed and Breakfast Inn ~ Cambria's Her
Castle is a large, lovely home nestled in the woods just south of the Cambria,
California downtown and nearby famous Highway 1. Bill and Eleanor Seavey
purchased it in 2004--our first guests stayed with us in mid-2005.
Ours is an absolutely stunning setting overlooking the surrounding
hillsides--green in winter and spring, and amber in the summer and fall. Nature
abounds nearby, with deer and raccoons visiting often. Dozens of species of
birds frequent our decks seeking "handouts," including brightly plumed
woodpeckers, jays and sparrows. Monterey pines, redwoods and cypress grow within
our small estate and provide shade cover and a tranquil scene.
Speaking of the estate, we have a virtual botanical garden which you are free
to roam within and around--on several levels. Over a dozen species of fruit
trees (apple, lime, lemon, grapefruit, orange and plum) grow on our sunny
slopes. There is an almost infinite variety of shrubs and flowering plants, as
well as desert yucca, cactus and succulents. Potted plants and custom muraling
accent the gardens and home. While Her Castle is not grandiose, it is charming
and serene, with modern convenience-- yes, we have free WiFi.
As a b&b, we offer a full breakfast and with a menu catering to your
individual needs if at all practicable. (You can probably skip lunch!) With
luck, you will be able to interact with other guests besides your hosts Bill, a
former small town relocation expert and presently alternative investment advisor
(see his recent "downturn survival book" at TheCrisisInvestor.com), and Eleanor,
a former family daycare provider/pre-school teacher in Orcutt, California. (We
moved here by way of North Santa Barbara, Southern California, Ontario, Canada,
and the Pacific Northwest.)
We know the area well and can help you with all your questions. (Try to stay
here at least two days as there is easily 48 hours of things to do!) With high
gas prices we will endeavor to help you economize on your trip if necessary--in
particular, we know the finest restaurants in town and where/when the best
bargains are! Also, you can catch the free trolley one block away. Your hosts
are tennis club members--if YOU play courts are less than a mile away.
Thank you for your interest in Her Castle, a truly unique b&b experience on
the gorgeous Central California Coast.
Your hosts,
Bill and Eleanor Seavey
