In the gentle hills between Napa and Sonoma, time seems to stand still. This is a place where the old world is not forgotten, where rural charm rules the day, and where everyone lives the good life because it’s the only one they know. Lazy days are spent walking the vineyards or biking the hills. A game of bocce or an al fresco massage helps pass the hours before a sunset so beautiful it makes the heart ache. Fine meals of fresh local fare give way to intimate evening gatherings, often under the endless starry sky. Here, the people are happy and the pace is slow, because as local vintners have told us time and again, you can’t rush perfection.

Now you have a chance to be a part of it all. In the midst of this peaceful haven, The Orchard at The Carneros Inn is the best of Wine Country. An intimate community of just 17 luxurious Cottages that share amenities with the renowned Carneros Inn resort, The Orchard insists on relaxation, indulgence, connection to the land and rich social experiences, all informed by the casual sophistication of the famed Carneros region. This serene retreat is less than one hour from San Francisco but a world apart. Introducing The Orchard at The Carneros Inn – Napa made perfect.
