About this property
Country Cottage with hilltop views - Families and Pets welcome!
The cottage is located at the top of a hill on a 2 acre property. Enjoy beautiful views, quiet rural location, artful decor and driving distance to hikes, wine-tasting, beaches and casinos.
Pets and children are welcome!
The 2-bedroom cottage is very comfortable with art from all over the world. It has a cozy queen bedroom, a second bedroom/office with a double bed and large desk, comfortable living room, fireplace, kitchen and dining area.
If you need a third bed I can set up a single mattress (with bedding of course) on the floor of the second bedroom. Just let me know!
There is also an outdoor picnic table and various seating areas around the garden. Hibachis are available for BBQ.
The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes and cookware, and has a gas stove/oven, microwave, fridge and toaster oven. Coffee, tea, spices, condiments and other cooking basics are available for your use.
Guests are welcome to use the nearby laundry facilities of the main house. The laundry has a washer, dryer, iron & ironing board, outdoor laundry line and laundry baskets for guest use.
The cottage has its own driveway and entrance separate from the main house, and plenty of parking.
I enjoy offering a pet-friendly environment. The yard is fully fenced and am happy for dogs to explore unleashed, and that guests can relax knowing their pets are safe and happy!
Let me know about your extended animal family in your inquiry, and I look forward to meeting them in person when you check in...
I charge a $75 pet fee up to 2 pets, and $25/pet for 3 or more.
If you are spending time at the beach, I can lend you a couple of beach chairs, beach sheets, towels and sand toys.
Check-in and check-out times are flexible depending on other bookings. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll make sure your stay is comfortable.

About the host
Hosted by Lucy Boyd-Wilson
I grew up in England and Toronto, and later studied and lived in Montreal for many years. Finally landed in San Diego where I am living "happily ever after" in beautiful rural Fallbrook.
I am an animation software developer and have worked many years developing video-games and animation software. Now I am a virtual reality programmer-artist.
Let me know if you'd like to try out a unique virtual reality experience during your stay! I create gentle experiences that I show at local art shows. I love to share my work :-)
I have traveled far and wide (Europe, Asia, Central and North America...). I love meeting people of all race and language. And I love exploring different kinds of food!

What makes this property unique
I enjoy offering a family and pet-friendly environment.
The yard is fully fenced and I am happy for dogs to explore unleashed, and that owners can relax knowing their pets are safe and happy :-)
