Built in 1928, this quirky bungalow is filled with bijou charm and plenty of character. Located down a winding narrow lane in the East End neighbourhood of Ojai — a six-minute drive to the town centre — its major selling point is the aura of absolute peace and serenity. The surrounding landscape is dominated by the dramatic mountains and the hosts have planted a gorgeous array of leafy vegetation in the garden, including fruit and pepper trees. Inside, it’s cottagecore with a Californian twist. A few of our favourite features include the all-encompassing wood panelling of the living room and master bedroom, the vintage dressers in the kitchen and the colourful woven bedspreads. For extra boho vibes, a former artist’s studio flooded with natural light has been converted into an additional bedroom. Spend all afternoon around the pool before lighting up the barbecue and having dinner under a pink sunset.

Local guide


About Ojai

If you thought Palm Springs was out there, just wait until you visit Ojai. Pronounced as if you just unexpectedly bumped into someone you don’t like very much (‘Ohh...hi’), this pastoral sanctuary north of Santa Barbara in the Topatopa mountains has it all. Meditation retreats run by old school hippie healers? Absolutely. Organic farms spearheaded by new-age thinkers? You’ve got it. Five-star spa hotels with gourmet dining rooms? That too....
