The Goose & Turrets Bed & Breakfast, located in the seaside
village of Montara, California, on the San Mateo County coast,
offers a quick getaway from San Francisco and Silicon Valley.
This slow lane refuge pampers fast lane folks by paying close
attention to both Bs: comfortable Beds and
bountiful Breakfasts.

The historic building, constructed around 1907, and its quiet
gardens are only 20 minutes from San Francisco airport and 30
minutes south of downtown San Francisco. Best of all, a
pleasant half-mile walk takes you to a clean sandy beach
where harbor seals stare back at the occasional beachcomber.

Every afternoon at 4:30, tea and goodies appear in the spacious common area.
Tea is a good time to meet and talk with fellow guests and the hosts
-- who can also help with dinner choices. By the way - this is not
"high tea," that's for children & nannies. We'll explain when you are
here.

Fires in the fireplace when it's foggy dispose guests to choose a book
to read or music to play (either themselves on the piano or by others
on the CD-tape deck).

Sunny days, guests enjoy bocce ball, lying in the hammock, sitting in the genuine Appalachian courting swing, watching birds and smelling the roses and jasmine - all to the background sounds of splashing fountains. Astoundingly, no biting insects will join you.

Many of the herbs and vegetables used in Goose & Turrets breakfasts come from the surrounding gardens and orchard.
