About this property
Anavo Farm's stylish sheep Retreat
The Anavo Farm Retreat is located in the heart of Santa Ynez wine country in the quiet village of Ballard. It's just a bike ride to Los Olivos and central to everything the Valley has to offer, yet it feels off the beaten path. This is a unique opportunity to stay in a "pinterest-worthy" renovated guest house, with only the sound of sheep, horses, and roosters crowing in the distance. We know it's hard to get away, and so you're experience needs to spectacular... and it will be! ** Follow us @ AnavoFarm for behind the scenes!**

This was our second visit to Anavo Farms and we can’t wait to visit again! I celebrated my birthday here amongst the beauty and serenity of the farm and all of its’ inhabitants. Jenn is the perfect host and made us feel totally at home. So many cozy touches, a welcoming bottle of wine and an assortment of goodies including delicious cheese and farm fresh eggs. We enjoyed watching the animals in the pasture while having our morning coffee. There’s even food to feed them … so much fun. Close to Ballard, Los Olivos and many wineries. This is a very special place and we look forward to our next stay. Thanks again for everything Jenn!
Such a peaceful spot, yet close to all the valley restaurants and wineries.
The best part, sitting on the deck with wine and seeing the animals, the mountains, and sunset.
