Walter and Sylvia's place in Topanga is a little piece of paradise away from the LA freeway craziness. It's a little tricky to find if you were as jet lagged as I was when I drove out there but don't let that put you off. The house is perfectly located - close to Malibu and Santa Monica, the beach and the mountains, and just perfect. It's exactly as it looks in the photos, and Sylvia is the loveliest, most helpful and accommodating host. Definitely would love to come back one day.
