A Rare Opportunity to Own Cambria’s Oldest and Most Celebrated Boutique Bed & Breakfast

Tucked along the tranquil banks of Santa Rosa Creek in the heart of Cambria’s historic seaside village, the Olallieberry Inn is a timeless Greek Revival treasure offered for sale. Built in 1865 and proudly listed on the Register of Historic Places, this iconic property seamlessly blends historic charm with refined modern luxury. Surrounded by lush English gardens and anchored by the largest coast redwood in Cambria, this boutique inn offers an unparalleled setting just steps from downtown shops, art galleries, and acclaimed dining.

Consistently rated #1 of 8 inns in Cambria on TripAdvisor and recognized by the San Luis Obispo Tribune as the top-rated Bed & Breakfast in the county, Olallieberry Inn is a proven, award-winning hospitality business with over 40 years of continuous operation and more than 60 years of welcoming guests in one form or another.

Situated on over a half acre and approximately 3,857 square foot floor plan. The inn features 9 beautifully appointed guest rooms, each uniquely designed to reflect the home’s original character and the signature Olallieberry style. All rooms include private baths, fireplaces, luxury beds, fine antiques, original artwork, and plush bedding. In keeping with its romantic, serene ambiance, guest rooms are free of televisions and telephones, while complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the property. A Tesla charging station adds appeal for eco-conscious travelers.

Guests gather each morning in the charming dining spaces to enjoy a full three-course gourmet breakfast prepared in the inn’s commercial-grade kitchen—a highlight of the Olallieberry experience. The expansive backyard opens directly onto Santa Rosa Creek as it winds its way to Moonstone Beach, creating a peaceful retreat rarely found in such a central village location.

Rich in history, the property was originally built by the Manderscheid brothers, early Cambria businessmen, using local Cambria pine and Big Sur redwood milled at the Leffingwell Saw Mill. Over the decades, it has been lovingly stewarded by prominent local families and carefully restored to preserve its architectural integrity while enhancing comfort and functionality.

Located minutes from Hearst Castle, Moonstone Beach, the Pacific Coast Highway, and Piedras Blancas Lighthouse, this is a rare chance to own a landmark property.
