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 (or a platter to your room). Our king and queen beds are 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. - Nearest major airport: San Luis Obispo (SBP) 40 miles
- Directions from airport:
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. - Meeting places:
- Downtown Cambria possibly
