Perched on a hilltop above Temecula's wine country, this Mediterranean-style house delivers golden-hour views that sweep across the Southern California mountains – the kind you'll want to linger over from the alfresco dining terrace as the sun drops behind the peaks. Days here have a natural rhythm: a morning in the light-filled living room with those wide desert views, afternoons around the pool or on the bocce ball court, evenings gathering outdoors for dinner. Temecula's rolling hillside vineyards and acclaimed tasting rooms are on your doorstep – you might even treat yourself to a sunrise hot air balloon flight over the valley.

Home truths
The lead guest must be at least 21 years old.
Two of the nine bedrooms – bedrooms eight and nine – are in a separate guesthouse rather than the main house.
The home sits at the end of roughly one mile of dirt road, so you'll want a car with reasonable ground clearance. We recommend picking up groceries and supplies before you head out, as the remote setting means town is a proper drive away. There's free parking for up to seven cars on the driveway and one in the garage.
Because of the remote rural location, occasional unexpected power outages can occur. It's worth having a torch to hand and keeping devices charged.
This home is in a rural area where wildlife and insects are common, both indoors and outdoors. It's worth supervising young children and pets after dark.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a travel cot and high chair. Request them in advance to make sure they're ready on arrival.
Wood-burning fires aren't permitted at this home.
