Located in the small town of Forestville, California in the stunning Russian River Valley Region of Sonoma County's famed wine country, Farmhouse represents the finest level of Sonoma inns, restaurants and spas - sublime guestrooms, farm-fresh food and seasonal spa treatments.
Owned since 2001 by siblings Catherine and Joe Bartolomei, whose family has farmed in the Sonoma County area for five generations, Farmhouse Inn, Restaurant and Spa evolved from a lifetime of family traditions that center around the rhythms and inherent beauty of nature. Each individual space offers a mix of historical whimsy, classic elegance and luxurious sophistication. With 6 concierges for 18 rooms, the Farmhouse Inn offers highly personalized and attentive service.
The full-service Farmhouse Spa, conceptualized by Francis and Alexander and designed by Myra Hoefter Design of Healdsburg, offers gracious service paired with exclusive treatments centered around produce harvested and distilled on-site. As a luxurious courtesy offering, guests are invited to partake from the Bath Bar, with seasonal scrubs, salts and soaps to take to their room.
The Farmhouse Restaurant, continued recipient of one Michelin star from 2007-2010, reflects Sonoma's rich offerings: Each plate that Chef Steve Litke creates tells a story about Sonoma County: its incredible diversity of agriculture and artisan producers, its rich heritage of Italian, French and Mexican immigrants and its consistent focus on organic and sustainably farmed fruits and vegetables.

"This B&B was so fantastic - the perfect weekend getaway! Not only were the rooms amazing - great, soft beds, sauna and jacuzzi in each room, but the owner and staff were so helpful and kind. Additionally, the perks were fantastic. Where else can you make s'mores in your in-room fireplace?" - leisurely89, California

"Not only were we pampered in the room with the fantastic steam room, huge whirlpool bathtub, fireplace, fresh cookies each day, extremely comfortable bed and beautiful lush green views from each room but we were equally pampered with the most lavish dinners and scrumptious breakfasts. We love traveling and have stayed in fabulous 5 star properties around the world...The Farmhouse Inn is a world class quality property and is now one of our very favorite destinations for a sleepy getaway!" - snobbishtraveller, Los Angeles
"One of the most magical properties we have enjoyed...from a steam shower (to die for!), heated bathroom floors, fireplaces, surround sound...The fabulous accomodations are laden with superior details and appointments that are intended to leave you surprised and amazed at how thoughtful the staff is...The complimentary "bath bar" with handmade soaps, brown sugar body scrub, and bath salts...all available to you in apothecary jars with bags to bring back to your room was such a divine treat...Each morning we were delighted with a gourmet breakfast of seasonal, local fruits, an "entree" of either sweet or savory breakfast offerings, and fresh baked pastries." - JustCamille, California
