Dallidet Adobe is perhaps tricky to find. It's right in the middle of town in San Luis Obispo, but access is up "secret" streets due to a busy shopping center that was built....perhaps to hide it away! The Gardens are old and fabulous ~ a retreat from the busy outside world. Volunteers will take you through the grounds and the... More

We almost missed finding this glimpse into old San Luis Obispo, and we're so glad we persevered. The story of the family and the house is an intriguing part of local history, and the exhibition at the S.L.O history museum offered even more. These old adobes are fast disappearing. Don't miss seeing this one.

Lovely historical spot; pretty gardens; adobe home; nicely renovated; used for private and community gatherings. Very personal and private area. Relaxing to visit. Spring and Summer are best times to visit.

A little bit of history in the heart of San Luis Obispo, a lot of activities taking place here. Great place for pictures. The gardens are beautiful and very well maintained.

Very well preserved old adobe home. Nice gardens. Docent informal tour was very interesting. Well worth seeking out.

The Dallidet adobe is really a must-see in San Luis. The gardens are lovely, even in winter, beautifully tended by volunteers. The house is a fascinating glimpse into the past and a leading Central Coast family's history. We were given a tour of the house (including the cellar with wonderful old tools!) by a marvelous docent who shared his knowledge... More

I recently visited the Dallidet Gardens and Adobe. I was so impressed with the docents working in the adobe, they were both informed and enthusiastic. From what I understand they hold weddings in the gardens. I image a wedding there would be amazing as the grounds are so lush. A really wonderful gem in the heart of SLO.

Unfortunately this lovely sight is barely known amongst even locals, but it is a breathtaking acre of gardens right in the heart of downtown! It isn't open very often, so check the website before you go. I think fridays and sundays in the afternoon. The house is a historic adobe and the docents provide a good tour. They also throw... More
