In a quiet corner of Sonoma’s Russian River Valley and surrounded by vineyards, the delightful Farmhouse Inn truly deserves the accolades it receives as one of the best small hotels not only in California but the entire country.

The Atmosphere

Hidden amidst wooded meadows and vine covered hills lies this exquisite yet unpretentious jewel. From the moment you arrive at this brother and sister run affair you feel as though you’ve been welcomed into the family. The Farmhouse Inn is the perfect combination of rustic heritage, modern design and understated luxury. The entire property has been restored and updated with great attention to detail, enlisting local craftsman to ensure a seamless transition between old and new. The friendly staff are the icing on the cake and are supremely attentive without ever being overbearing.

Your Room

The twenty five luxury suites and cottages are spread over several buildings, linked by fragrant citrus and lavender lined pathways that guide you through the property. All are beautifully appointed, refined and bright, and feature cozy feather beds, luxurious linens and jetted or soaking tubs. Many have indoor and outdoor fireplaces, private patios, heated marble floors and steam showers or saunas.

Food & Drink

The Michelin starred on site restaurant is an integral part of the Farmhouse Inn experience. The food is sourced from the owner’s nearby ranch and local farmers, and is paired with some of the finest regional wines. The impeccable, sophisticated yet friendly service ensures an unforgettable dining experience.
