The Ballard Inn is a charming B&B located in a beautiful semi-rural community a couple of miles south of Los Olivos. It is full of well-appointed nooks inside and outside to enjoy, including many games and books. The staff is very friendly and the breakfast is excellent.
We absolutely loved staying at the Ballard Inn. It made our entire trip so much more fun and festive. It’s decorating is amazing and feels like you are staying in someone’s lovely home.
