A brilliant exchange, with flawless communication, lots of updates, advice and photos sent over during the stay as well. The home was very comfortable, spacious and beautiful, but the view towards the Ocean from the outside seating area was so enchanting that we spent most of our time there! Ventura is brilliantly placed to see a lot of California: we visited LA multiple times, explored Santa Barbara and Santa Monica, camped in the Joshua Tree National Park (an amazing experience), and explored Sequoia National Forest in a daytrip.

Ventura is brilliantly placed to see a lot of California: we visited LA multiple times, explored Santa Barbara and Santa Monica, camped in the Joshua Tree National Park (an amazing experience), and explored Sequoia National Forest in a daytrip. But ultimately our favourite place was Ventura, so easy-going, beautiful and bright. And our favourite place within it was Mark and Sue's home - thank you for sharing it with us, it has given us so many happy memories!
