Cottage in Organic Lemon Orchard - Southern California FarmStay - Pet-friendly! | Cottage in Somis
1 Bedroom Cottage in Somis
Stay in a cute stand-alone cottage surrounded by 20 acres of organic lemons and avocados. Go for long walks, enjoy avocado toast, make fresh lemonade, and pick oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines right off the tree when in season. Breathe in the fresh air, surrounded by palms, pines, and eucalyptus groves. Walk up the hill to take in beautiful sunsets over rolling hills and California farmland. Located within a quiet, gated community, the property offers both privacy and a sense of openness. Conveniently positioned about one hour from Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, and within 30 minutes or less of many Ventura County beaches, it is an ideal base for both relaxation and exploration.
Zava Ranch is a small organic orchard designed with a focus on thoughtful land stewardship and a slower, more intentional pace of living. Unlike high-traffic farm properties, the environment here is quiet and low-impact. You’ll notice the difference in the stillness, the bird sounds in the morning, and the absence of constant noise. The land is actively cared for, but without rush or intensity, creating a setting that feels both natural and restorative.
The cottage is a bright and comfortable studio of approximately 400 square feet, ideal for a couple or a solo traveler. While the interior is well-equipped and thoughtfully arranged, most guests find themselves spending their time outdoors—walking the property, sitting under the trees, or simply enjoying the open space and views.
Inside, the cottage features a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, sink, microwave, and a kitchen island with seating for two. Whether you’re preparing a simple breakfast or using freshly picked fruit to create something special, the space is designed to be functional and easy to use.
The main living area includes a queen-size bed with nightstands, a window bench, a spacious closet, two reclining chairs, and a loveseat, creating a comfortable place to rest, read, or unwind after a day outside. Natural light and views of the surrounding orchard make the space feel open and connected to the outdoors.
The bathroom is a good size and includes a shower, with clean, simple finishes. A washer and dryer are conveniently located just outside the cottage for guest use.
Step outside to your private terrace area with a dining table and seating, perfect for morning coffee, outdoor meals, or simply enjoying the quiet surroundings. There is also a playground nearby, making the space welcoming for families traveling with children.
The surrounding area offers a unique combination of rural charm and accessibility. You are close enough to enjoy restaurants, shopping, and beaches, yet far enough to experience a slower pace, open skies, and minimal traffic. Nearby attractions include Ventura and Oxnard beaches, local hiking trails, farmers markets, and small-town centers.
We understand that many guests need to work remotely, and reliable internet is essential. The cottage is equipped with high-speed internet (approximately 100 Mbps) with a dedicated access point on the roof, providing strong and consistent connectivity for video calls, streaming, and work needs.
Hosts live on the property and are available if needed, while still respecting your privacy. We are happy to answer questions, provide local recommendations, or assist with anything that helps make your stay more comfortable.
This is a place for those who appreciate simplicity, nature, and a setting that feels intentional rather than busy. Whether you are here to relax, explore Ventura County, or simply spend time in a peaceful environment, the cottage at Zava Ranch offers a unique and grounded experience.
