Splendid Isolation! Dream Kitchen with Two Luxe Suites, on 2+ acres near town Refugio is a contemporary Spanish-style guesthouse, a peaceful retreat, and a place to wind down at magic hour. Refugio boasts two state-of-the-art suites, each with private deck and fire-pit (and mini-bar). Indulge your inner chef in the fully-equipped teaching/catering kitchen and expansive patio overlooking two and a half acres of pasture, with two 300-year-old oak trees. The two completely separate and private suites at Refugio can comfortably accommodate one or two single(s), one or two couple(s), and family or professional groups. The lounge area of the kitchen/studio boasts a queen-sized pull out sofa equipped with lush linens and pillows; a folding carved wooden room-divider provides added privacy. Sheets are Italian, wi-fi is strong, and bathrooms boast heated tile floors, comfy bathrobes and lush towels, locally-sourced products, and high-end fixtures. You will not find any televisions here. Instead, the Oak Suite has a huge oval bathtub and wood-burning fireplace; the Barn Suite a spacious, double-headed shower, large and sheltered deck, and a wall paneled with old barn wood. We have been long-time renters on VRBO, and always looked for homes with two equal suites, so we created the ultimate two-suite home, and threw in total luxury and complete privacy for each suite. A complimentary bottle of Paso Robles wine awaits you at this 'Bed and Bottle' in Wine Country. Parties: Without prior approval, gatherings of more than 12 persons, children included, will not be permitted. With prior approval and depending on the type of gathering, additional fees/event contract may apply and may include stipulations regarding noise, shut-down time, responsible trash removal etc. Pet Policy: We love dogs and have had virtually no problems welcoming them to Refugio. There is a maximum weight limit of 50 lbs total, and a fee of $60 per dog. Please do not leave your dog unattended in the house unless he or she is in a crate, and please be sure they do not get onto any furniture or beds. Thank you for taking your pet out into the pasture to relieve themselves rather than staying close to the house, to avoid smells.
