About this property
Large Custom Guest House On Hill Top Estate In Bonsall
The guest house is ideal for a relaxed retreat from everyday life. Located only 15 minutes from major cities, this 15 acre estate offers a level of peace and serenity that is hard to find while still being close enough to everything to enjoy live entertainment, exquisite meals, challenging golf course, ocean beaches, world class family resorts, major casinos, and award winning wines.
Situated slightly lower on the property than the main house, it offers a private and undisturbed sanctuary for your time away from home. The large bedroom is located at the edge of the hill and presents views of the valleys heading both north to Temecula and west to the ocean. This room is loaded with windows and receives cool evening breezes with the windows open. A full sized stacked washer and dryer is located in the bedroom for your convenience, and there is plenty of storage in the full size dresser and closet.
The other main room of the house contains both the kitchen and the living room, but this space is so large that you will never feel crowded. The kitchen boasts full size appliances (gas range and oven), large refrigerator with ice maker, and miles of counter space (including a butcher block island). There is a comfortable table suitable for four adults to enjoy home cooked meals in the kitchen space, and another 4 person table outside on the patio to enjoy the evening breeze and sunsets while eating on the private patio.
The living room has a love seat and a sleeper sofa (queen), and the smart TV is wirelessly connected to the internet to stream HD content (Netflix and Vudu), access DirecTV, or use the Blu-ray player for your favorite movies. We have a library of movies that can be loaned on request.
There are views from every window/door that are incredible as the property is located on top of the hill at the end of a private road. The driveway is gated and the property is fenced around the immediate house, but there is an additional 4 acres adjacent to the guest house path that is fenced and occupied by our three goats, Donkey, and Llama. The remaining 10 acres is not fenced, but is available for your exploration, and includes a (neglected) lime grove. Most of the land is rugged and covered with original chaparral growth, boulders, and wildlife, but does offer the most impressive views in all of Bonsall and has a maintained dirt road for ease of access.

What an absolutely beautiful location. The VRBO was very clean, and we felt like we were at home. The views were spectacular. The kitchen was equipped with all the needed appliances. We had full communication with the owners. The check in and the checkout procedure was so easy. We will definitely be returning to this VRBO. Thank you so much.
I can't say enough good about this absolutely beautiful guest house and it's gracious hosts!I was in California with a friend and her two small dogs for an event and booked this stay months in advance. I am so grateful I did because this beautiful home offered a peaceful and restful haven after some long hot days. Helen and Jay are the kindest people you will ever meet and the guesthouse just has a peaceful and welcoming feel. There are beautiful views over the valley and orchards, stunning landscape and gardens and ocean breeze on the balcony with a private courtyard. The house is next to the owners property but very private offering a balance of privacy and security. The home is well stocked with kitchen cleaning and linens etc. If you like being within reach of shopping and services but out of the rat race you will not find better than this. I would give ten stars if I could it's just an amazing place and wonderful hosts
Excellent unique location.Only suggestion to owners is to invest in simple mobile cart that can help guests manage luggage transfer to entance uphill to Guest Quarters.
we really enjoyed our stay here. we spent hours in the morning drinking tea on the back deck watching all the hawks and other birds soaring over the valley. the view is absolutely enchanting. we were very comfortable in this sweet, quiet and clean guest house. the hosts are kind and attentive… we will be back for sure. thank you for everything helen and jay!
This guest house is on a beautiful location with stunning views. There are two areas to enjoy the outdoors with comfortable furniture. The house is bright and comfortable. The shower has instantly hot and awesome pressure. We had a seamless check-in and check out with our hosts who responded quickly. The wifi was great. we were working and chilling and it was a perfect place. we also walked on the property which was wonderful to do close by. I can’t wait to return!
Place was beautiful and had all the amenities you could possibly need. We loved having coffee on the deck every morning and even brought our dogs as well as they loved the quiet and paths to take walks on. We will be staying here every time we come to visit family! Highly recommend!
We enjoyed our stay very much. Jay and his wife are such nice people and made our stay very pleasant. They were very accommodating to our needs. The property is beautiful and well kept and the view is fabulous. I highly recommend this property as a vacation destination.
This is the second time we stayed here and will absolutely be back again. The property is beautiful and exactly as pictured- rural but less than 10 minutes to the I-15 freeway, so convenient to everything. The hosts are super nice people and easy to work with. We love everything about this property.
We had an amazing stay for 5 days here with our family. Everything was perfect. Helen was so friendly and welcoming. They left our kids cookies and a flower for our loved one that passed. We definitely would book again next time we come out!
