Glendeven Inn

lendeven Inn is a delightful country inn developed around a handsome New England Federalist farmhouse built in 1867 by Isaiah Stevens for his family, who occupied the home until the late 1930's. The Farmhouse has three suites with fireplaces, ocean views and outdoor porches or balconies. Additionally, it has two cozy rooms, one with dormer windows overlooking the ocean, the other looking out onto a private garden.

The Stevenscroft building, added in 1984, houses four spacious luxury rooms with fireplaces and ocean views, each distinctly furnished with contemporary art, comfortable furniture, antiques, custom woodwork and tile bathrooms. Most have an outdoor balcony or porch.

The Carriage House suite, opened in 1999, offers "luxurious seclusion". It features a large living room with fireplace, refrigerator and microwave, a private balcony overlooking the Innís gardens and old water tower, a bedroom with a magnificent woven brass king-sized sleigh bed and stove/fireplace, and a beautifully tiled bathroom with a skylight and double shower.

All rooms at Glendeven have featherbeds, CD players, hairdryers and robes. A delicious breakfast is delivered to the rooms in the morning, and proprietors Sharon and Higgins host wine and hors díoeuvres each evening.

Glendeven also hosts one of Mendocino's top art galleries, operated by a partnership of local artists and featuring their contemporary ceramics, original paintings, jewelry, sculpture and etchings.

Lovely gardens and grounds contribute to Glendeven's aura of peacefulness, making it a wonderful place to stay on your next get-away to the spectacular Mendocino coast.
