A couple planning a romantic mini-break to Santa Barbara County will find Danish Orchid makes a great base for exploring the charming town of Solvang. Known for its unique Danish-style architecture, you can explore all it has to offer on foot as the vibrant centre – with its many eateries and bakeries – is just a few minutes' walk away. For an experience further afield, we recommend visiting the local wineries of the Santa Ynez Valley, or a drive down to the coast for a swim in the ocean. Pick up some groceries on your way back and cook your dinner alfresco on the barbecue, before retiring to your cosy home and planning tomorrow's adventures.

In this kitsch, funny little place you’ll find a statue of the Little Mermaid, a bust of Hans Christian Andersen and a replica of Copenhagen’s Round Tower, as well as windmills, year-round Christmas...
