Farmhouse Inn, Napa Valley
For a romantic idyll in the heart of California’s wine country, head to Farmhouse Inn. Originally a farmhouse, as the name would suggest, this beautiful rustic property has effortlessly evolved into a luxurious retreat in the heart of wine country.
LOCATION
An easy drive from San Francisco or neighbouring Napa Valley and we’ll soon find ourselves settling into the wilds of a beautiful, rural landscape. Farmhouse Inn is an utterly relaxing escape, but it’s also an easy jaunt into the gourmet towns of Healdsburg and Santa Rosa, as well as a plethora of Sonoma Valley wineries. Should we want to venture further afield, we can enjoy hikes amongst the Redwoods and along the rugged coast.
OUR ROOM
Dotted around the gardens, we’ll have the option of staying in the original farmhouse, its outbuildings or a barn. A perfect fusion of chic and rustic, each room of the rooms oozes tranquillity with light flooding in from the windows. Soft colours, sumptuous bedding, quirky wooden furniture with a fireplace we can enjoy in our room and on our private terrace.It all adds to the cosy feeling. Oh, and don’t even get me started on the beds… Quite possibly some of the largest and comfiest I’ve ever seen.
WHY I LIKE IT
It’s the little touches that do it for me at Farmhouse Inn. Aside from being welcomed as though we’re family, with a glass of local wine (man I’m easy), we’ll also find a ‘Farmhouse Provisions’ box in our room, fully loaded with local goodies. And, if we’re still hungry after those, we’ll get freshly baked cookies and marshmallows by our bed each night. EACH NIGHT! The best bit? The s’mores bar. Seriously…there’s a s’mores bar. I’m wrapping mine in bacon. No doubt about it.
