Our home sits in the middle of five wooded acres in sunny Carmel Valley, just 2 miles from Carmel Valley Village. The property borders the 4500 acre Garland Ranch Regional Park and its 1100 acre Kahn Ranch Addition, allowing unspoiled views and easy access to miles of hiking trails. Surrounded by natural beauty, the property provides a deeply relaxing environment.

Be sure to read our 5-Star reviews. They give you the best feel for the property: One guest even wrote, "Where do I begin! This property is a secret gem, and I’m almost not wanting to leave a review because I know once the word keeps getting out it will be really booked out."

The natural beauty of the property is perhaps its biggest draw, but it is also very well located. Carmel Valley Village is only 8 minutes away. It has a wonderful grocery store (Jerome's Carmel Valley Market), which is conveniently located for shopping if you want to cook meals in our large gourmet kitchen. If you want to eat out, the village has several good restaurants, including our favorites: Corkscrew Café and Café Rustica. There are more than a dozenb wine-tasting rooms in the village proper. The restaurants of Carmel are only about 20 mins further by car.

The two-bedroom, two-bath Main House and its detached Office/Studio can comfortably accommodate four to six guests. The charming board-and-batten structures have an early-California style, but large windows and vaulted ceilings give them a rustic-modern feel.

In the Main House, the bedrooms are located on the lower level. One bedroom has a queen bed, and the other has a king bed (convertible to two twin beds). Each of the Main House bedrooms have convenient en-suite dressing rooms, equipped with sinks set in Brazilian granite countertops. There are two bathrooms in the Main House, one upstairs (with jetted tub and shower) , and one downstairs (with glass enclosed shower). Both bathrooms feature limestone tiles and Brazilian granite countertops.

The Office/Studio, just steps away from the Main House, has a small living room (with seating, writing desk, and TV).

Several features may make you want to linger on the property:

—First, the jetted spa on the deck adjacent to the Office Studio has spectacular views over the oak-studded hills. A soak in its hot water is a real treat. In inclement weather, you can relax in the jetted bathtub, available in the upstairs bathroom of the Main House.

—Second, the owners are master gardeners and have landscaped the property with plants from the mediterranean climate regions of the world. You can wander among numerous outdoor seating areas and hammocks, relaxing with a glass of wine and taking in the seasonal bloom of lavender, aloe, conebush, and sage.

—Third, it is a joy to cook in the spacious, well-equipped gourmet kitchen. It has black marble countertops and a six-burner, dual-fuel pro range. You may be surprised at how often you decide to stay in for dinner.

—Fourth, the Main House living room has a comfortable feel with its vaulted ceiling, large windows, ample sunshine, and wonderful views. A fireplace adds to the coziness when temperstures drop. We have paid attention to detail in our choice of decor and amenities. Quite simply, we have tried to provide the same experience for our guests that we would want for ourselves.

—And, finally, Les Restanques has Internet and DirecTV and for your work and entertainment needs.

Come stay with us and enjoy a very special Carmel Valley experience! This home is best suited for those looking for a relaxed, refined experience in nature. It is a place to enjoy one another's company in a beautiful country setting while, at the same time, only being a short drive from the Village and only a 25 min drive to Carmel Beach. We are looking for low impact, quiet guests, as sound can carry in the valley.
