This century-old, plantation style working ranch just about defines the word bucolic. And you can throw “charming” in there for good measure. The rooms are spacious and filled with well-chosen antiques, each with its own sitting area. The 105-acre estate is laced with hiking trails and gardens and it boasts a good tennis court, for those who want to work up a sweat. Breakfast is included and it’s superb, the eggs are produced right on the ranch. Guests have a tough time leaving Beltane’s expansive wrap-around porch; it’s the perfect place to while away the afternoon-into-evening, glass of vino in hand. Tip: Request one of the upstairs rooms for the best views.
