Luxury holidays in Cambria

The laidback seaside village of Cambria sits on a stretch of California coastline that’s dotted with pine forests, unspoilt beaches and small towns. Hit the surf off Moonstone Beach (you’ll want a wetsuit), hike into the hills on Bluffs trail, or simply settle your Pendleton blanket on a stretch of sand and soak up the sun. There are vineyards to visit, enormous elephant seals to spy on, and antique shops to peruse in this former California boomtown too.
