Farmhouse Inn

Of course, visitors don't just come for the luxurious accommodations. The Michelin-starred restaurant attracts its own following with such iconic dishes as Rabbit Rabbit Rabbit – a trio of bacon-wrapped loin, ribs, and leg confit.

And the new rooms, in the back of the six acre property with an outdoor terrace surrounded by groves are the kind that you never want to leave: decorated with chic, whimsical farm accent pieces, throws on the light wood fourposter bed created from wool from a neighbor's sheep, a fireplace, a large Carrera marble bathroom with a jetted tub.

A major renovation and expansion a few years back resulted in a new spa, even lusher landscaping, and an increase in the room count – all without sacrificing the privacy and subdued glamour guests have come to expect.

Sonoma County's Farmhouse Inn looks and feels like a classic New England country inn with a sunny clapboard exterior, big whitewashed porch, and a dining room simply adorned with wrought-iron chandeliers, ladder-back chairs, and filigree-patterned carpet.
