By the Hill

This quaint guest house backs onto a nature reserve, surrounded by hiking trails and under fifteen minutes from Beverly Hills. You'll have a private patio, but the heated pool is shared with the main house next door. Set up as a studio, the bed is not separate from the living and dining areas, so you won't have much privacy. While you'll find the kitchenette stocked with beverages, it's very small – you'll want a car to head out to eat. Luckily, you're under a mile from some fantastic restaurants, and your host has plenty of recommendations.
