Cozy 1 BR Cottage 2 Block Stroll to Sonoma Plaza.

Enter a private, secluded environment and get away from the busy world in this charming, old-fashioned cottage with many Irish touches -- but also with wireless internet connection and flat-screen cable HD TV with hundreds of channels. Enjoy the easy two-block stroll to Sonoma Plaza, where you can choose from Sonoma's best restaurants, wine tasting rooms, and gift shops, also Mission St. Francis Solano, the last and northernmost mission of the California Mission Trail. The cottage is a wonderful base for taking walks to the historic Plaza, coffeeshops, wine bars and nearby vineyards.

The traditionally furnished living room has a cozy, natural gas fireplace and sofa bed for additional guests for no extra charge. Our fully stocked kitchen has everything you need for preparing meals. The small room off the living room can be an office or nursery. The screened-in front porch is perfect for reading, and/or enjoying a glass of Sonoma Chardonnay. In September 2021 we built a redwood deck off the bedroom for outdoor relaxing or dining, and friendly deer are often, daily actually, sighted in the backyard pasture (they love apple cores).

My wife Rose and I opened the doors of Kate Murphy’s Cottage in 1984. We have thoroughly enjoyed meeting guests from around the world and playing a part in their visit to the beautiful Sonoma Valley. It has been a singularly rewarding experience. And now, I am welcoming my son-in-law, Rick Alatorre, to the endeavor. Rick will be your contact and is looking forward to facilitating a wonderful stay for you at Kate Murphy’s. Rick and I together will ensure that your time in Sonoma is relaxing and enjoyable.

Available at discount by the week, two weeks, three weeks or month, the cottage is ideal for anniversary celebrations, house hunting, visiting family and friends, or extended business trips. We have a three-day minimum stay policy.

We have instituted the following protocols to further ensure the health and safety of all our guests. Our staff and cleaning crew are fully vaccinated against the COVID pandemic. We require that anyone who enters the cottage for maintenance or upkeep or cleaning be fully vaccinated.

You are going to love Kate Murphy's Cottage; everyone does. Please read our guest reviews!
