This was a long weekend getaway and we chose the cottage for privacy knowing that it would be detached from the inn. It was a great choice. The cottage was in the back and we had our own entrance via the gate which opened on to a private deck. We walked all over town and into the Mendocino headlands right... more

Well, my last stay there was the Second time I visited Mendocino, and the Whitegate Inn. Overall I feel its what a B&B should be. Quaint, cozy, and the staff are very accomodating. Built in l887, Victorian style, just like it was then is now. The dining room you have your two course breakfast has to be the best a... more

I wanted a special way to celebrate my 50th birthday, and I wanted to go some place where my dogs could come, too. The bed and breakfast Whitegate Inn in Mendeceno not only provided a wonderful escape, but charged only one fee per STAY per animal, vice a charge per night. The accomodations are not 'doggy' by any stretch of... more

We were delighted to find room at the Inn as our final 2007 gift to ourselves. We booked the Garden Meadow room, which is on the second floor. We were immediately taken with the gleaming white facade of the house, built around 1894, if memory serves. All was spotless and charming. The stained glass window, which serves as a skylight,... more

We stayed here the weekend before Thanksgiving and it was a wonderful experience. The bed was super comfy, the gas fireplace was thermostat controlled so we woke up every morning to a roaring fire, and soft robes to wrap up in. Breakfast was a gourmet experience every morning and the innkeepers and staff couldn't be nicer. They even allowed our... more

My stay there was such a piece of magic, an integral part of my wonderful week in Mendocino.Susan and Richard Strom really know how to set a warm and comfortable... more

My expectations were high after all of the tripadvisor reviews and unfortunately, the Whitegate Inn didn't live up to them. It started when one of the staff clearly shooed us away when my husband and I showed up (on our anniversary) an hour before check in to see if we could leave our bags. Once we did get to our... more

My husband surprised me with a weekend getaway to the Whitegate Inn for my birthday. Our room was the Cyprus--first floor closest to the front door. The bed was gorgeous and very comfortable to sleep in. Linens on the bed were of a very high quality, and included down comforters and a feather bed. There was also a jacuzzi tub... more

We decided to begin my birthday week in Mendocino early. I researched Whitegate Inn after reading about it in my favorite B&B books. After working in the high end hotel industry for years (unbeknown to Whitegate Inn), I was immediately impressed upon my first verbal communication for reservations. Inn owners: Susan and Richard are two of the BEST I have... more
