We really enjoyed staying at Richard's guest cottage for 4 days. The location was wonderful, a short drive from Abbot-Kinney, not far from Santa Monica. Richard's colleagues welcomed us with fresh bagels and all the fixins, plus a variety of libations. The garden is a lovely little oasis. The only thing we lacked was enough accessible outlets for our multiple gadgets - but that's a very minor thing. We had a wonderful time and would love to come back again.
