In the 1860s, Dr. George Crane purchased property near St. Helena in Napa Valley. In 1879, he enlarged the simple farmhouse on the estate into Sunny Acres. The history of this lovely Victorian home is still on view in the parlor, which boasts photographs of Dr. Crane and his wife Frances, as well as their piano and several pieces of their furniture.

In 1927, John Salvestrin, a immigrant from northern Italy, moved to St. Helena and purchased the Crane property. Today, John's son Ed and Ed's wife Susanne imbue the Sunny Acres bed-and-breakfast with a warm, family atmosphere that makes their guests feel right at home. As you look out your bedroom window, you may see Ed tending his prized grapevines. Or visit the kitchen to join Susanne, former pastry chef at Sutter Home Winery, while she prepares a delicious country breakfast. The town of St. Helena, famous for its restaurants, shopping, and nearby wineries is within easy walking distance.

Sunny Acres rooms have a queen size bed, private bathroom and shower. We happily take one-night reservations!

So take a step back in time, discover Salvestrin Vineyard and Winery, and enjoy a wonderful stay in Napa Valley at Sunny Acres.
