About the host
Hosted by Jeanne and Leo Glover
My husband and I have lived in the Santa Ynez Valley for over 30 years. In all of our travels, we have found few places as beautiful as our own little Valley. We feel very fortunate to live in such a special place and look forward to sharing our experience with our guests.
Why they chose this property
The Santa Ynez Valley is the perfect retreat. A tranquil, gorgeous setting offering many activities and yet just a 30 minute drive to the beautiful city of Santa Barbara. Enjoy wine tasting at the numerous wineries in the area, shopping in the quaint Danish village of Solvang, a stroll through charming Los Olivos with numerous tasting rooms and shops, or dining at wonderful local restaurants. Hiking biking or boating/fishing in Lake Cachuma. For golfers, the River Course at the Alisal in Solvang is a great public course. Monthly golf packages available.
What makes this property unique
This is a wonderful combination of privacy and convenience. We are situated on 10 acres, yet we are a very short walking distance from downtown Santa Ynez. A beautiful setting with a detached and very private second residence. Vaulted ceilings add spaciousness and charm and the large fireplace is both sophisticated and cozy. We've furnished it with everything you will need for your stay!
