English Country Farmhouse

Escape to your own private sanctuary in the heart of SYV. Behind secured gates, Chateau Ynez awaits—a magical French country estate where Provençal luxury meets California living. Float in the sparkling heated pool as golden light dances across manicured grounds, pluck organic fruit from heritage trees, send kids to their upstairs headquarters, enjoy game rooms (and karaoke!) and gather around crackling fireplaces. Your gateway to an unforgettable experience, minutes from Los Olivos and Solvang.

About This Space:

Discover Chateau Ynez, your own private French country estate that seamlessly blends Provençal elegance with modern comfort.

* Luxurious Indoor Spaces: Step inside to discover spaces designed for both intimate moments and grand gatherings in true French country style. Three wood-burning fireplaces create cozy havens throughout the chateau, while the chef's gourmet kitchen—worthy of a Provençal farmhouse—beckons culinary adventures with local wine country ingredients.

* Perfect for multi-generational groups: The upstairs sanctuary sleeps 6 and serves as the ultimate kids' headquarters, complete with its own balcony overlooking the backyard action. Picture this—adults savoring wine and grilling at the premium BBQ while lounging poolside, as children enjoy their own space above yet stay connected to the fun below. It's the perfect balance of togetherness and independence that makes everyone's vacation truly relaxing.

The main-level game room features a convertible billiards/ping pong table, while the upstairs game room—complete with its own fireplace—is stocked with every game imaginable for hours of family fun. For evening entertainment, unleash your inner performer with professional karaoke equipment featuring two pro microphones.

* Unwind in Ultimate Comfort: After days of wine tasting and exploration, melt away stress in the therapeutic steam shower, then sink into the finest linens on premium mattresses—because extraordinary days deserve extraordinary rest.

You'll also find a grand salon plus two intimate sitting areas, and a peaceful meditation/yoga room for wellness moments.
