Newly remodeled, our one-bedroom loft offers clean modern living, with a touch of Danish charm. The bedroom features a queen tempurpedic bed with adjustable firmness for two, 300 thread count sheets and down bedding, all nestled in a cozy nook. Linens and towels are freshly laundered with detergent that is hypoallergenic and contains no dyes, phosphates, ultraviolet brighteners or perfumes. In the bathroom, a unique vintage glass block window allows the light to come in while preserving your privacy. It's the perfect spot to have a soak after a day of site-seeing. The loft also has a full kitchen with stove, oven, and fridge, and is equipped with everything you need to cook dinner or prepare your morning cup of coffee. The living area provides plenty of space for you to spread out and play games, watch a movie or comfortably read a book. The Danish modern furniture is all convertible, allowing for two additional guests to each have a twin bed to themselves. If you can't bear to be inside, spend some time on the private balcony, which overlooks our courtyard garden. Featuring drought tolerant and primarily native plants, the garden changes season-by-season, and always lends a little color to your scenery. It's the perfect place to dine outside or relax with a glass of wine.
Access to the loft is easy with your own private parking space and gated entrance just down the stairs. Each building is separate, so you will not have anyone staying below you. Our loft accommodates 2-4 people -- a perfect spot for a couple or a small family. Our rentals are also pet friendly, so your dog (Or cat? Rabbit? Turtle?) is welcome.
Bedding and towels will be provided, along with toiletries such as soaps, shampoo/conditioner and lotion. We offer EO Products, which are free from synthetic fragrances, cruelty-free, gluten-free, and GMO-free.
If this unit is booked for your required dates, we have another rental on the same property that may be available. Search "Couples Cottage | Steps to Downtown" on airbnb for more details.
**Please note that Solvang requires a 12% occupancy tax be collected on the rental rate. Airbnb does not provide a method for including the tax with the initial price, so it will be added to your booking AFTER you have requested or made the reservation with instant booking (this means we will contact you with a price alteration, and you will then have to approve a price increase in the amount of the required tax and the reservation will be updated). The tax is based on the nightly rental rate, and not on the cleaning fee. A Transient Occupancy Tax Certificate from the city is on display in the unit.**
The loft is a private second floor space that has it's own entrance. The balcony deck overlooks our courtyard garden. The shared yard below is available as well for chilling or outdoor dining. The unit is behind the main house but accessed from either the street or the alley, with your own parking spot just below the entrance. There will be nobody staying above or below you.
There is a hot tub in the yard, but for safety reasons, it is not offered with the rental. Each unit does not have its own BBQ, however you are welcome to use our BBQ which is located in the Courtyard area.
We live on the property (there are three homes) in the front house. We are available for anything you might need, but are also happy to leave you completely on your own. We work around your comfort level. A private entrance means you can come and go with minimal interaction with us or other guests. There is another rental, so you may see other guests as well. But you have your own private space, both indoor and outdoor.
You cannot be any closer to the heart of Solvang than The Great Dane Guest House. We are situated less than one block from the main street of town, Coppenhagen drive. Whether you've come for shopping, wine tasting, dining, adventuring, etc. - you will find everything is within a very short walk. We will provide anything you need to know about local restaurants, wineries, hikes, biking, shops, etc. The famous Solvang Horse Trolley comes by about every half hour Monday-Friday, which is worth a ride if you'd like to know a little about the history of our little Danish town. Right next-door is the award winning First and Oak Restaurant at The Mirabelle. We would be happy to make a reservation for you if you'd like. Also, if you enjoy gambling or shows, you can walk one block to Hotel Corque and catch a free shuttle to the Chumash Casino.
Parking is a cinch in Solvang. You can leave your car right in our driveway, and make your way on foot. If you don't feel like walking, you can rent a surrey cycle for up to 8 people. Or, catch a wine tour bus and travel in style to all of your favorite wineries. There is also an Amtrak bus stop two blocks from us, so if you're coming by train, consider making that connection. One block away is Hotel Corque, where you can catch a free shuttle to the Chumash Casino. There are also shuttles to Santa Barbara, LAX and points in-between.
**Note - The rental provides one parking spot on the property. If you have more than one vehicle, there is plenty of free street parking with no limitations on time or days of the week. On extra busy weekends, you may have to park further out, but it would be very unusual not to have a spot within one block of the cottage**
**Our city requires a 12% Transient occupancy tax, which will be added to your booking once you have requested a reservation (this means you will have to approve a price increase in the amount of the required tax upon confirming the reservation). The tax is based on the nightly rental rate, and not on the cleaning fee. A Transient Occupancy Tax Certificate from the city is on display in the unit.**
Rental rates vary. Please see calendar for rates specific to the days you are reserving.
Our rental is situated directly behind Solvang Festival Theater - a charming outdoor theater that hosts plays and music events mostly throughout the summer. From the loft, you can actually see the theater (unfortunately not the stage) and listen to the shows. While the shows can be heard clearly while outdoors, you can hear them only slightly while inside. We love hearing the shows in the evenings and have never found it to be a nuisance. But you should consider that if you prefer perfect silence. The shows are in the evenings, usually finishing up around 10pm. During the day, Solvang is a bustle with tourist activity and the tingling of bells on the trolley horses. But, by about 6 pm, things quiet down considerably and you rarely hear any noise at night.
