Farmhouse Inn in Forestville, California, is putting the finishing touches on its $8 million redesign, led by San Francisco-based hospitality firm hospitality firm SB Architects in collaboration with Myra Hoefer Design and ValleyCrest landscape architects. The renovation enhances the hotel’s mission of providing an authentic insider experience of California wine country.
Nine new luxury guestrooms reflect the historic barns of Sonoma County’s vineyards and hillsides through wood, stone, handwoven fabric,s and simple yet elegant furnishings. Large doors and windows open onto private decks nestled in a wooded grove. Carrera marble bathrooms with galvanized fixture complete the look.
“The redesign’s added elements and thoughtful details enable the hotel to take full advantage of its prominent and unique location in the Russian River Valley,” says Catherine Bartolomei, co-owner of Farmhouse Inn.
Opening in September, a new farm-to-table spa will feature treatments that use spring forest honey and heirloom cider apples from the hotel owner’s ranch, as well as herbs grown right in Farmhouse’s kitchen garden. Additional amenities will include a new fitness center and revitalized pool area.
