A charming carriage home on a private estate

Join us in a lovely carriage house on a private country estate. Step into Provence without driving very far! This beautiful carriage home is nestled in the countryside, on an 8-acre property in a very peaceful setting. It is located in Danville just east of Blackhawk and within walking or biking distance of Mt. Diablo. Charmingly furnished, with a stunning outdoor patio area and custom fireplace. Easy access to Carmel, San Francisco, Tahoe, and Napa. Pure paradise!

Quiet and comfortable
Quiet and comfortable accommodation. Lots of birds and squirrels to watch. Our first morning we were surprised to see a huge Hawk sitting in a tree outside the window. Good location for easy drive to airport and surrounding cities. End of road has a mice trail head.

Paradise away from home
I am very grateful that I had a little piece of paradise away from my own Ranch home. I took my mother to visit family up in Northern California last week. Our Hosts were lovely people. They made us feel welcome right away and also left us to our private moments. The setting is gorgeous. Couldn’t ask for more that way. I would definitely go back there again with my husband sometime. It’s nice to have a fully operational kitchen so you can either go out to the restaurants nearby or cook at home. It’s cozy and lovely all the way around. Couldn’t ask for more!

Beautiful home
We were really happy with this location and the beautiful back house we stayed in. WE brought our two dogs and they were at home in the huge fenced-in backyard. It's very well-appointed and had everything we needed. I highly recommend staying here.

Relaxing Stay at Carriage House

Magnificent property and living space
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the carriage house and waking up to walks above the creek with spectacular trees and upper level property with expansive views. The patio/lawn area was nice for our toddler and was impressive lit up in the evening. The interior layout was comfortable and open as pictured. We had fun visits from the owners two pups! Our hosts were excellent with communication and we enjoyed our conversations. They accommodated us easily when requesting to add an extra night and when needing help with a AAA pick up at the end of our stay. This Vrbo experience was superior in every way and we would definitely want to make a return visit.

Wonderful oasis
This was the perfect place to find some peace and quiet during our home remodel. I am so happy we found it. The grounds are beautiful and it was wonderful to watch the Barn Owls start flying at dusk. Thank you Liz.

Great Thanksgiving Get Away
A great property that gave the feel of being in Provence. Liz was great to deal with and we were able to fly in from out of town and meet our son's future in-laws and celebrate a Thanksgiving Feast on the outdoor patio under the café lights. What a beautiful setting and the unit worked out perfectly and was very comfortable as we felt like we were in the French countryside. The stonework and landscaping is beautiful and the lighting at night is fantastically done. We couldn't have had a better location for our Thanksgiving dinner.

Paradise in Pleasanton!!
The carriage house and property were beautiful. The location was perfect for us. A quiet, peaceful neighborhood in the country, yet close enough to shops, restaurants and amenities. The home was equipped with everything that we needed. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were clean. Liz was a great host. Very responsive throughout the entire process. We highly recommend staying here.

Great Carriage House
I love the location and the vibe. Great backyard. Felt very private even though it was right next to the main house. The cleaning job was very good, but there were a few little stains here and there that I think should have been cleaned. The main reason I didn't give it 5 stars over all because it's not luxury, but it's very very nice and comfortable. Communication with the owners was easy and timely.

7/5 Stars!! Magical, Romantic, and Oh-So-Peaceful
Our stay at the Carriage House was one of the best stay-cations we've EVER had. TLDR; we actually live very close and needed a place to stay during our remodel. The carriage house was perfect. The interior design and the gardens are top-notch. Clean, quiet, homey, inviting. If you're 1) remodeling, 2) have a wedding in the area, or 3) just need a Napa-style stay-cation.... look no further
