Tranquil space with LOTS of room. Boasts views of mountains with large, covered deck with kitchen.
Putting green in back yard. Large built in firepit with seating for 8. Massive remodel just completed with new kitchen and baths. Large LR and DR which is perfect for multiple families. Kitchen is fully equipped (with spices and oils as well) and there is an eat in kitchen with bar stools. Dog allowed, must contact owner before booking for approval. Pet fee of $200 will be charged.

The Space:
This house was my private residence in Carmel. The kitchen and baths have been completed remodeled. Kitchen has original cabinets but all appliances are new as is the counter. LR and DR have quintessential Carmel ceiling with hardwood floors and hand thrown tiles in entry. Fireplace in LR is wood burning and room is very large enough for two families. Bedrooms are in a separate area of house, so if you are entertaining, noise is minimized.

Great Property

We rented this home as an overflow for a few couples as we also rented a larger estate house in the neighborhood. It was perfect and nicely appointed. Easy 15 min walk to town and very secluded!

Great base to explore Carmel

We really enjoyed staying at this house. It was the perfect place to explore Carmel with our dogs. The property was extremely dog friendly and there is a great park within walking distance to take the dogs, along with leash free beaches a 30 minute walk away. The house is very cute and comfortable and was well equipped. We have family in the area and would definitely stay here again.

Wedding weekend

We stayed here for our wedding weekend as we were coming from out of town. The house is stunning! The owner was so quick to respond when we needed help, the location is very central so easy to get around town, loved that we were able to bring our fur babies with us for the weekend as well.

Comfortable House

We greatly enjoyed our stay. The owner was very communicative and addressed our concerns quickly and completely. The house is very nicely appointed including a well stocked kitchen with plenty of room for 4. Our dogs enjoyed romping in the backyard. I would note that the walk to town was longer than expected.

Great for family and dogs

The large fenced-in yard made it so easy and safe to let the dogs out before heading off on walks or to the beach. The large living room was great for all 6 of us to hang out, eat, or play games. During the unprecedented rains of the previous weeks, the sump pump running constantly at night was noisy for sleeping.

Family get away

We really enjoyed staying at Penny’s house for a family trip to Carmel. The house looks just as advertised with updates throughout the entire house. The 3 bedrooms are quite spacious and the house was very clean when we arrived. The kitchen is well equipped and we were able to cook most of our meals while staying there. The fenced backyard was wonderful. We were traveling with our 2 dogs who really enjoyed the large space to play in. The flowers are beautiful. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck in the mornings eating breakfast under the umbrella.

Spacious and Cozy

My wife and I took our 2 year old son and our in-laws to Carmel for the weekend and the house was perfect for us. It was cozy, quiet and spacious, had all the amenities we needed, was very close to all the restaurants and shops in Carmel + not too far from Monterey .I'd definitely recommend for anyone looking for a nice stay in Carmel or Monterey

Exquisite Large and Modern Home With Plenty of Backyard Space!

Staying in this home was truly so special! There are endless areas to hangout between the living room, dining area, kitchen, a second dining area, barstools, and outdoor space. It's so comfortable, well decorated, and instantly felt like a vacation upon arriving. The only arena I would square away ahead of time is the schedule of the yard maintenance. While my group was outside on the deck, the leaf-blower came. I was not notified ahead of time, so we had to come in until they were done. We were having a BBQ for my mom's birthday the following day thank goodness, so it was no problem. There seemed to be a bit of confusion of the yard schedule, but this is an easy thing to plan for ahead of time once the owners have the updated schedule. If you're wanting to plan a day on the deck in the backyard I would just ask ahead of time to plan accordingly. I would absolutely stay here again, and plan to.

Good Location

We were very pleased with our stay at Hatton Fields. Pros- The Location of the home is great! We had several issues during our stay and the property manager quickly resolved them. Plenty of space for 5 people to spread out in the home. Cons- I believe the master shower was hooked up wrong. You must turn the handle to C (cold) to get hot water and turn the handle to H (hot) to get cold water. Clearly something wrong. I would take a point off for cleanliness. The owner of the home books people back-to-back and relies on the previous renter to start the laundry and dishwasher vs having the linens professionally cleaned. And the big glass doors and windows had hand prints and smudges all over them. However The rest of the home is very clean. Overall I would give this home 4 out of 5 stars when comparing it to other homes in the area. We would stay again.
