What an amazing spot! Not only are you in the middle of a beautiful piece of property but the hosts couldnt be any nicer and the room any better. If Santa Ynez is on your map give the Cottage at the Barn a try.

Our stay at the Cottage by the barn was wonderful. We were looking for a private place that will allow pets. When we found this listing we got so excited! All we can say is that it met all expectations. Private, clean, all amenities that we wanted to have, and just a very short drive to Solvang. The owner was very helpful, oferred suggestions for restaurants around the area, and spend some time with us animal lovers explaining horses, we were able to pet them and take as many pictures as we wanted. We will definitely think about Cottage by the barn when visiting the area in the future. We highly recommend this place. Joel and Silvia Taylor
Owner's Response: Hi Joel and Silvia,
We really enjoyed having you stay with us. We love to share all of the amazing restaurants in our area. The shops here are unique and it was my favorite place to go even before I lived here. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay and that you got to sample a bit of our beautiful valley at my favorite time of year. Come again!! Marcia & Brian Nelson, Owners

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cottage by the Barn. The unit was warm, clean and very cozy. It was nicely decorated and very clean.

The property sits on a working horse ranch which was an added plus. My daughter and I had the chance to feed the horses around the property one morning. It was fun and something we don't get to do very often.

If we are ever in Santa Ynez again, we would definitely stay here.

Owner's Response: You guys were so quiet we hardly even knew you were here. We are happy you had such a good time. Our horses love it when they get attention! We hope to see you again if you are in our area.
