Item Description
Oh, for heaven's sake! Don't bother going to Tuscany or Provence! We in Mendocino County have one of the most unforgettable inns you'll ever visit. This classic Victorian manor house, built in 1904, is set on 92 acres of meadows and forest overlooking the majestic Pacific Ocean, which is at its most ruggedly handsome here on the north coast of California. Your hostess has generously donated 3 of the 4 exquisitely appointed guest rooms, each room sleeping 2 people, for 2 nights! All your rooms have family heirlooms and Victorian treasures, and views all the way to the ocean. An eclectic collection of authentic art by such artists as Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, Ron Cooper, Frank Stella and Alberto Burri abound throughout the house. This irresistible package also comes with a country breakfast every morning and one classic Italian dinner for six. Served in an elegantly appointed formal dining room, your dinner is a five course meal of historically authentic Italian regional dishes. Offerings to the diner feature freshly harvested produce from the garden, or lamb and poultry raised on the grounds! An acre of floral and vegetable gardens surround the house for you to enjoy. Farther afield on the property, depending on the time of day, it is not uncommon to spot pumas, bobcats and lynx, or a fox or two, in addition to numerous deer on their daily forage for food. There is also something for bird watchers to enjoy, as the annual bird count by the National Audubon Society includes this property. This is truly a setting which brings you a step back in time, and offers an experience to be savored and shared with family or friends.
