7 Gables Pension

I just have to do a separate post on this place.  If you like Shabby chic with a little french influence this 7 Gables Pension is for you.  Even better if you like Wine tasting want to be able to walk around.
Located in Prosser, washington  a small town, with small downtown, that has several antique shops.  It has a big industry though, and thats wine.  Its basically a farming community with a big growth of this industry.  They have and are continuing to build a area called Vinters Village, when completed, it will be a large amount of wine tasting houses and restuarants along with some places to stay.
7Gables is part of the Vintners Village and was recently written up in Sunset magazine. Sitting on 6 acres the B&B is quiant and quiet. The house is a restored farm house, which recently had 4+ bathrooms added on.  The grounds are beautifully maintained, with a picket fence surrounding the main property, and a wrap around porch to relax on and  take it all in.  The home is filled with charming antique and new furnishings mixed together.

There is a huge garden that she grows the produce  used for meals in the house.  Becuase she grows a fair amount of produce, she sells to some of the local chefs and business'. In talking to the owner Debbie, and getting a sneak preiview, she will be opening an antique shop in late July early August where she will have many pieces of restored and painted pieces & pieces similar in style seen in the house, and a bit of a farmers market- selling some of their garden produce. I look forward to making a trip back when she has this open.
These little piggies are soft sculpture and all three are attatched. They were so cute sitting on our bed
when we arrived.
Debbie has a lovely kitchen with modern appliances where she makes the most wonderful breakfast for the house guest.  I understand she does special events as well at the house such as bridal teas.  I can't wait to go back, and now that the secret is out, I'm sure it will be harder to get in to.
