Eat, Love, Indulge in the Wine Country Before Baby

Nestled in heart of California’s pastoral Sonoma County, Farmhouse Inn, Restaurant & Spa blends rustic charm with lavish hospitality to provide parents and parents-to-be with some much-needed relief from the frantic pace of family life.

This inviting 6-acre sanctuary is surrounded by miles of vineyards and features a beautifully restored 1870 weatherboard farmhouse which now houses the inn’s farm-fresh Michelin one-star restaurant.

In addition to sustainable fine dining, the inn also offers a landscaped pool, full service spa as well as a plethora of outdoor spaces that have been carefully designated for guests’ complete relaxation.    

Now, with their uniquely designed "Over the Moon" package, 5th generation farmers and owners Catherine and Joe Bartolomei are extending their welcome to expecting couples. With five children of their own, the Bartolomei's understand the need for relaxation during pregnancy and have therefore prepared a very attractive package that promotes both romance and rejuvenation for parents to be.

Along with a spacious but homey room that features elegant furnishings, a private deck and fireplace, your two-night stay includes a three-course seasonal dinner at the celebrated Farmhouse Restaurant. As foodies delight in Executive Chef Steve Litke's masterful use of local ingrediants for an elegant meal inspired by Sonoma's diverse heritage of Italian, French and Mexican immigration, a Master Sommelier will pair each course with fine local wine for dad and creative non-alcoholic beverages for Mom. Furthermore, an all organic two-course gourmet breakfast will be prepared for guests each morning.



During the day, dad will venture on a private wine tasting with three local vinters while mom relaxes and readies herself for delivery with a special pre-natal spa treatment. At the conclusion of your visit, you will be given a Welcome Baby Take Home Gift which features a line of pure skin care from Sumbody of Sonoma plus a restful lullaby CD for your baby on the way. 

As a creative memento of this special time, the Bartolomei’s will offer to book a professional photographer whose talent captures the glow of pregnancy in a gorgeous vineyard setting.

The “Over the Moon” two-night package is $1,395 midweek and $1,595 on weekends. If desired, the photo shoot is an additional $525 and includes a linen bound album of 12 images of your choosing.
