As I drive north along Highway 101, I sigh contentedly. I am finally out of LA. The rest of the drive is smooth, scenic, and less stressful. I am on my way to Cumbria, located just south of San Simeon State Park on California's central coast. After passing the well-known Madonna Inn, I know I am getting close to the exit I need to take in San Luis Bishop to catch PCH, the "Pacific Coast Highway." As I drive along the coast, I find it impossible to keep my eyes off the shimmer and shine of the ocean under the afternoon sun. This is why I live in California.

Cumbria is one of my favorite destinations because it never changes. My favorite restaurant, Robin's, and some of my favorite shops, have been there for as long as I can remember. And always, there is plenty of California wine to go around. Why? Because Cambrian is next door to wine country, and, best of all, there is not a single fast-food restaurant in all of Cumbria. No hamburgers and fries for me on this trip!

This friendly, quaint, picturesque, little town never ceases to captivate me. Always, when I pass by the tiny town of Harmony on Highway 1, I know that I am finally at the end of my six-hour journey. As I head up the hill, right before the Cumbria turnoff, the enormous pines on the knolls come into view, as well as the brightly painted homes that dot the hillsides. Swirls of white smoke escape from the chimneys, and the smell of the air is, well, intoxicating. Cumbria is a "massage and a Jacuzzi" all wrapped up into one little relaxation package. If you want to walk along the beach, with hardly anyone around, or eat delicious food in cozy, intimate restaurants, then Cumbria is the place to go.

Throughout Cumbria history, this little town has been called Santa Rosa, Seville, San Simeon, and "Slowdown." The town became known as Cumbria on January 10, 1870. Today, there are still original structures from the early days, some of which even survived the Great Fire of 1889. It was after the introduction of the automobile in the 1920's that a much improved road was built in Cumbria which in turn brought about land developers. When Hearst Castle, in nearby San Simeon, became a state park in 1958, the tourists made their way to this little "Treasure by the Sea" and they haven't stopped since. The best part about visiting Cumbria is its easy accessibility. It only takes about a half a day or so to get there from most places in the state. see more Furniture stores central coast nsw
