The Daughter’s Inn

The Beazleys carry on family traditions by opening Napa’s newest Bed & Breakfast Inn…

The Daughter’s Inn may be the newest B&B in town, but Jim and Carol Beazley are not new to the B&B’s of Napa! They opened the Beazley House, Napa Valley's first bed & breakfast inn, 21 years ago. The Daughter's Inn, opened just this last November, is their sophisticated new B&B. The inn is appropriately named as the owners and innkeepers are Jim & Carol’s daughter, Brooke Peterson, and her husband Perry. A family tradition is truly being carried on here! Just two doors apart, both inns are located in the Historic Downtown area of Napa.

The Daughter’s Inn was originally built in the early 1900’s in a grand Queen Ann shingle style. It was "modernized" in the 20’s to reflect a more Arts & Crafts style exterior. This lovely mansion has beautiful Venetian chandeliers, coved ceilings, a magnificent wood staircase, and an original carved ceramic fireplace, all lovingly restored to reveal original charm and beauty -- truly a fabulous home.

As you enter the grand foyer you are greeted warmly by your Innkeepers, Brooke or Perry, who live on the premises. Beautiful large "lights over glass" windows abound throughout the house creating a bright cheery feel. The ever so inviting living room, with its fabulous fireplace, is a great place to sit and enjoy the moment, read a book, or just converse with a friend.

Each guest room is as individual as their names. All of the rooms are named after "flower fairies" and decorated with the colors of these flowers, commonly found in England. The attention to detail is evident everywhere, and includes all the modern conveniences. The rooms are large, beautifully decorated and furnished with English and American antiques. Each room has a private bath, large shower, whirlpool tub, and fireplace.

Guests at the Daughter's inn will enjoy a delicious full breakfast described as "low fat, high taste!" Everything is prepared at the inn, including fresh homemade muffins and breads.

The Daughter’s Inn is in the Historic Downtown area of Napa, a comfortable walk to fine shops, world-class restaurants, and the picturesque Napa River. You can also catch the Napa Downtown Trolley and cruise to many Napa attractions including COPIA, Napa Premium Outlets and more. What an ideal location!

Wine Country Spas

Pamper yourself in Wine Country...

Last month WineCountry.com editorial staff visited three spas - two in Sonoma County and one in the Napa Valley - to experience a selection of the unique offerings available at various spas in Wine Country and present them to you, our readers. Here is what our staff members had to report:

Have you ever wondered what happens to all the by products of the winemaking business? Well I just had the chance to find out. On a cold and rainy day I visited the Raindance Spa at the Lodge at Sonoma to indulge in their Grape Seed Rose Hip Mud Wrap. After relaxing in tranquil surroundings I was wrapped in a luxuriously warm paste made of milled white wine grape seeds and rose hips. This combination is said to infuse the body with powerful antioxidants and vitamins E and C to build and maintain a good blood vascular system…and although I can’t be sure it did all that it certainly felt good.

The Raindance spa has created a lovely atmosphere with cozy fireplaces and places to just sit and relax. One can dip into the natural hot mineral waters located in a beautifully designed courtyard just outside the main building, or enjoy the Raindance Suite, the spa's signature treatment room which is designed for individuals or couples and boasts a private fireplace, cedar sauna, Monsoon shower, and hydrotherapy tub along with a private balcony overlooking the spa garden.

Whichever treatment you choose you will not be disappointed. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and when necessary unobtrusive. And now that I know that wine by products can be put to such good use…..I will just have to enjoy more wine and do my bit to insure we have plenty to go around.

Visit www.thelodgeatsonoma.com and click on the link to Raindance Spa for all the details.

In continued pursuit of wine related treatments, next came the Vintage Wine Treatment at the newly opened Vineyard Creek Spa, part of the Vineyard Creek Hotel and Conference Center in Santa Rosa. Housed in a separate wing of the hotel, the Spa offers a tranquil, well appointed waiting area, spacious locker rooms with a large steam room, and wet/dry treatment rooms to accommodate a variety of different treatments.

The Vintage Wine Treatment starts with a full body exfoliation using crushed grape seeds mixed with a soothing lavender body gel. This is gently rubbed over the entire body and then you slip into the waiting bath filled with an anti-oxidant grape seed tea. After relaxing peacefully for 20 minutes and sipping on your choice of a Sonoma County wine or herb tea you emerge smooth and relaxed. A full body grape seed oil massage finishes the treatment…and a nap is about all you can think of from then on.

The Vineyard Creek Spa is open to the public as well as Hotel guests and offers a full range of treatments and packages designed to suit just about every taste.

http://www.vineyardcreek.com/index.html

At the Mount View Hotel and Spa I enjoyed the Dr. Hauschka Full-Body Rhythmical Treatment. This treatment was beautifully presented by Estethician, Corrine Rowland, who is one of few people trained in the technique. The relaxing and unique full-body massage uses a soft rhythmic technique, stimulating the blood and lymph systems, thereby strengthening and detoxifying the immune system. As a result I felt totally de-stressed and deeply relaxed. The holistic approach helps to restore the flow of natural life rhythms, and with the aid of pure botanical products and a nurturing touch by Corrine, I found myself sinking into utterly blissful relaxation.

Following this marvelous treatment I slipped into a luxurious Lavender Hydrotherapy Bath located in a private room, allowing me to totally escape into a quiet, serene world of my own. The comfortable tub is suitable for individuals or couples, making a Seasonal Hydrotherapy Bath or Mud Bath the perfect way to spend a soothing afternoon.

The Mount View Hotel's newly remodeled spa has 12 private treatment rooms, locker rooms, a large outdoor heated pool, and a Jacuzzi whirlpool. Tranquility and privacy are so ideally conveyed at this elegant spa which offers an extensive variety of treatments and packages. From the moment you step into your robe and slippers until the end of the treatment you are totally pampered.

The Mount View Hotel also offers charming rooms, suites and cottages. Within the hotel is one of Napa Valley’s finest restaurants, the Catahoula.

For the ultimate in relaxation and pampering, be sure to include a spa visit in your itinerary for your next trip to California's Wine Country!

Tasting Room Recommendation

Yorkville Cellars in Anderson Valley

A WineCountry.com staff member recently visited Yorkville Cellars, located in Mendocino County’s scenic Anderson Valley along Highway 128. Yorkville Cellars is one of the ten original certified organic vineyards in the North Coast regions of California. This CCOF (Certified California Organic Farmers) certification, which the vineyard has held since 1986, guarantees that no pesticides, herbicides, fungicides or chemical fertilizers are ever used in the growing of Yorkville Cellars’ grapes.

All of their estate-grown and bottled wines are produced from grapes grown in the 30-acres of vineyards that surround the winery. Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grapes are from the Randle Hill Vineyard, while the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc grapes are grown in the Rennie Vineyard. Yorkville Cellars is the only North Coast estate to organically grow all seven of the Bordeaux grape varietals.

In addition to producing the five main red wines of Bordeaux, Yorkville Cellars also crafts two blends; Eleanor of Aquitane and Richard the Lion-Heart. Eleanor of Aquitane is a classic Graves-style Bordeaux blend made from the very best estate-grown Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes. Richard the Lion-Heart is a blend of the five red Bordeaux grapes grown in the Yorkville vineyards, bringing together all the full-bodied aromas and complexities in one very fine wine. Other wineries have been known to blend all five Bordeaux-style grapes, but never from one single vineyard location. This fact and their "Masters of Organics" Award makes Yorkville’s wines stand out from others in their class.

Winery proprietors, Edward and Deborah Wallo, founded Yorkville Cellars and bottled their first estate wines in 1994. The driveway, lined with over 500 rose bushes, leads to the original highway that ran through the Anderson Valley in the 1940s, towards coastal Highway 1. You will find the winery's tasting room located in the middle of the estate vineyards and surrounded by 175 year-old oak trees, which provide much-needed shade during the warm days of summer.

Edward Wallo specifically chose the location of the tasting room for the Oregon-like view visible from the wrap-around porch and the rolling California hills behind. He says, "The Mendocino region still holds the feeling of the locals getting on with business."

The next time you visit southern Mendocino County, stop by Yorkville Cellars’ Tasting Room and experience their wonderful wines firsthand. They offer wine tasting daily from 11 AM – 6 PM, free of charge.

Yorkville Cellars can be found on the web at http://www.yorkville-cellars.com

A WineCountry representative recently experienced Hotel Oceana, and confessed wanting to forgo all planned expeditions and simply take pleasure in the elegant Spanish charm, cool fountains, palm trees and tropical flowers, perhaps ending the day with a trip to the spa! In the evening you’ll find enjoyment in sipping wine under a beautiful coastal sunset from a balcony dripping with fragrant "giant honeysuckle" vines. This month you can enjoy superb wines from the Santa Ynez Valley, as Koehler Winery is hosting a wine tasting in Hotel Oceana's guest lounge on Friday, January 24th and 31st, from 4pm to 7pm.

Upon rising in the morning, be sure to indulge in the delightful breakfast served in the guest lounge. Hotel Oceana is said to have the best breakfast in town, for the unbelievable price of $9.
