"We loved our stay at the Cheshire Cat Inn. Everything from the easy check in, our cottage was adorable and spotless and the delicious breakfast delivered to our door every morning. The location is great, close enough to state street but also quiet and peaceful. We have stayed in Santa Barbara many times, usually closer to or right on the ocean which is beautiful but can be very noisy since the highway runs along the shoreline. We will definitely stay here again!"
