Casa del Herrero presents a wonderful example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style which is still so popular in California. The house and garden complement each other beautifully. I strongly recommend that anyone who plans to visit should become a member first. The cost of two tickets is the same as the the price of a basic membership which includes free admission (with reservations) and guest passes, a newsletter and free or discounted entrance to reciprocating gardens and museums. Note: Reservations are necessary because of the terms of the Conditional Use Permit under which Casa del Herrero operates.
