9 Wilson St, Renwick; d $150; )
On an elevated section
in otherwise flat Renwick, this charming old house is a treat. Dyed-in-the-wool local hosts
run a welcoming B&B, with stately decor, and homegrown fruit and homemade goodies
for breakfast. Free bikes, outdoor spa and gardens make this a tip-top choice in the heart
of the wine country.

Tucked into
the grounds of an 1886 homestead, these four rustic cottages offer privacy and a reason to
stay put. Each is unique in its layout and perspective on the gardens and vines. Our pick is
the Stables, with its lemon-grove view. Anyone for tennis?
