Circa 1898. Gracing Santa Ynez wine country in a picturesque Santa Barbara, California neighborhood, this classic Victorian features a steep front gable and Colonial diamond-paned bay windows. A veranda and balcony invite relaxation. Gather for afternoon wine and appetizers and indulge in homemade cookies in the evening. Romantic, upscale accommodations boast modern conveniences amid well-placed antique furnishings. Stay in a spacious guest room or the Penthouse Suite with a living room, fireplace, whirlpool tub, waterfall shower and private terrace. After breakfast, take a short walk to the theater district or browse through local shops. Several packages are available with a variety of activities included. Hop on the electric shuttle to savor the urban wine trail to sample the harvest from local vintners. Save time to take a day trip to tour the stunning Hearst Castle.

We have stayed at a number of B&Bs, but this is the best. We especially liked the wonderful breakfasts on the porch overlooking the garden.
