the art of a bed & breakfast

i think it should be on everyone's new year's resolution 

list to visit a bed & breakfast this year. just for a night.

a good bed & breakfast is a lost art, and i was reminded 

how lovely they are when we stayed in the cutest 

 cottage inn & spa last weekend. there's nothing 

quite like feeling at home while you're away, 

which is exactly what a bed & breakfast does. 

the cottage inn and spa definitely has the art

of a bed & breakfast down. we loved our stay!

this place is steps off sonoma square, so it's an ideal 

location where you can have fun exploring town 

and then walk back to your darling little cottage just 

off the square. after exploring up north in kenwood 

for the first part of our stay, we loved coming right 

into sonoma, exploring the square, and 

staying in the cutest bed & breakfast in town.

^^ the rooms are stocked with 

juice, cereal, coffee and fruit,

and breakfast is delivered in a

little basket to your door in 

the morning...heavenly!

i love beds, and i love breakfast.

so i double love staying at a good 

bed & breakfast. this one was fabulous.

 not only is the cottage inn & spa 

so charming, it is in a great location

--- like i said, right off the square,

and close to great hikes, wineries, anything

you're interested in! we did the sonoma 

overlook hike and loved that the 

trailhead was within walking distance.

while i hiked further, chase went back

to the cottage inn to get the nicest

massage...another perk of this place

is the amazing spa! chase loved it.

the days were sunny and warm, but

it cools off fast at night! luckily

this place has a "fire & ice" room

that is amazing! they close all the doors

to this courtyard and light the fire,

so after our incredible dinner at

the girl & the fig and our movie 

date, we came back and soaked in

this warmth. so pretty!

haha, loving that fire.

^^ hubby, you're handsome.

and our room had a cozy little 

tea light fireplace..darling.

thank you, cottage inn & spa 

for a lovely stay! we'll be back!
