Welcome to Cedar Gables Inn, a luxurious Napa Valley Mansion. Built in 1892 as a wedding gift for E. Wilder Churchill and his bride to be Alice Ames, it is one of the "big four" 10,000 square foot mansions in Napa. Designed by architect Ernest Coxhead, one of the three top architects in San Francisco, the shingle style mansions focus is Shakespearean Old English. Few architects have created buildings as quirky, playful and personal as Ernest Coxhead, or as historically informed and serious. Few architects cast the same spell. It is entirely different from that of any residence in the state and has been restored to magnificence. Winding staircases lead to nine beautifully appointed guest rooms with queen-size beds, period details, and private baths, some with whirlpool tubs and fireplaces. The "Old English Tavern" with its massive fireplace, leather chairs, and corner bar adds to the comfort of Cedar Gables. The secret passageways and hidden staircases add mystique and charm. The elegant dining room with hand cut lead crystal chandeliers is the height of romantic atmosphere for entertaining your guests. A fantastic state-of-the-art Culinary Showcase Kitchen affords you the ability to entertain on the grand scale. Come and be enchanted by this most unique and luxurious jewel of the Napa Valley.
