Where Heritage Meets Hospitality in California’s Wine Country
Originally a private farmhouse in the heart of San Martin’s wine country, Fitz Place has been thoughtfully restored into a boutique retreat that blends English-estate charm with modern California comfort. Once a beloved family estate, it now welcomes guests seeking authentic Santa Clara Valley experiences — from sipping local wines to gathering under the stars.
