Inn Details
Welcome! Our modern "castle" features lush botanical gardens with a dozen variety of fruit trees. Our two suites with private entrances open up onto private decks with views "to die for" of pine trees and the surrounding verdant hillsides. We offer a full scrumptious breakfast, and serve a local wine and hors d'oeuvres if you arrive mid-afternoon (on a platter to your room). Our king and queen beds are pillow tops, very comfortable, with goose down pillows and comforters. We are knowledgeable about the local area and will be happy to share everything we know with you.

Directions to property:
It's very easy to find. Coming north on Highway 1, take a left at the first signal as you come into Cambria (where the Welcome to Cambria sign is). This is Ardath Road. You will see a No Services sign and a Deer Crossing sign immediately as you enter a wooded neighborhood. Our street is the SECOND left less than a "block" from Highway 1, and Her Castle at 1978 Londonderry Lane is only 3 houses in on the left hand side of the street. It is nondescript from the front--go ahead and park in the short driveway next to the green garage door. If you are coming south on Highway 101 from the Bay area, make a right turn onto highway 46 in the Atascadero/Templeton area, go down that road 20 miles to Highway 1, go another three miles north and follow the above directions to our place when you intersect Ardath Road.
Airport
San Luis Obispo (SBP) 40 miles
Directions to property:
Take Highway 227 from the airport into San Luis Obispo, get on Highway 101 going north and take the Morro Bay exit onto Highway 1. You can't get lost at this point as you will go straight north through Morro Bay and Cayucos, two cute beachside towns. If you accidentally go past the Morro Bay exit you will be on the Cuesta Grade heading for Atascadero, in which case you will need to take left on Highway 46 which returns you to Highway 1 about 3 miles south of Cambria's townlimits sign.

Her Castle will exceed your expectations of a B&B by a wide margin. Eleanor's cooking, and her attention to detail within the room make Martha Stewart look like an amatuer. Having breakfast with Bill & Eleanor each morning was like catching up with old friends over a wonderful meal. We will never stay anywhere else in Cambria. You'll be wasting your time if you look further! Phil & Jeanette Ventura Las Vegas

the best welcome we've had anywhere, and nothing has been forgotten. Copious snacks, wine on arrival, generous breakfast (entertained by the visiting woodpeckers and jays) - after the early morning tray silently appears! Bill and Eleanor are such thoughtful hosts; nothing is any trouble and they are keen to help with ideas for dining and walks. We'll go back like a shot if we're down that way again.
Perfect mom and daughter getaway!

I am not one to write reviews but this B&B deserves a glowing review! Eleanor is the quintessential hostess. Wine and cheese tray upon arrival to greet us after a long drive up the coast of California. Coffee and mini cinnamon rolls before a lovely breakfast which I was able to enjoy on the balcony while my daughter snoozed undisturbed. Recommendations for things to do and restaurants to try, Eleanor covered it all. We stayed in the King room and the bed was superbly comfy. Water in the fridge and snacks to tide you over on your adventures. Fully equipped bathroom with toiletries and comfy robes. Eleanor sets the bar for B&B's. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.
Great Stay!!

This was an anniversary surprise for my wife. (So much so, that she forgot when our anniversary was)! Everything was exceptional, and our hosts Bill and Eleanor, were just great folks, sharing with us their travel and travails, and making us feel at home. A few (extra) special touches regarding our special day were very much appreciated by us-particularly the cheesecake! We've already recommended Her Castle to our kids, and we will also return in the future! Walt and Pam

I found Her Castle for my parents to stay in for their 30th Anniversary. Eleanor and I worked together on some surprised for when my parents arrived. I sent a package ahead, Eleanor purchaed a special cake at my request, bought special flowers, hung a banner and really went above and beyond to make my parents arrival perfect and special. My mom and dad raved about the care taken to make their special day spectacular. They were greeted with wine and delicious appetizers along with other treats. Mom told me the food was delicious and made with love. The hosts were enjoyable, so were the other guests when joined at breakfast. My parents have a fabulous 3 night stay, which was within their budget and great dinners in town at Eleanor's reccommendation. Thank you Eleanor for memories my parents will always cherish! Shari
