What the classifiers highlight

Five hundred acres at the foot of the Santa Ynez Mountains hold 41 individual cottages, most with sea or creek views, stone fireplaces and outdoor rain showers, where the Kennedys once honeymooned and Churchill wrote. Forbes rates it Five Stars and highlights Stonehouse, its Wine Spectator Grand Award cellar running to 12,000 bottles, plus seventeen miles of hiking trails.
