571 Ukiah St., (800) 486-2104, (707) 937-5266. 8 units; $$-$$$. Unsuitable for children under 12. Some wood-burning stoves. Full breakfast. No pets.
The 1867 salt box-style John Dougherty House is one of the oldest in town. Depending on the weather, a communal living room with fireplace or sheltered deck with lounge chairs is a good place to enjoy coffee or tea and afternoon cookies. Rooms are in the main house, in an adjacent water tower repurposed into a charming two-room suite with a 16-foot-high beamed ceiling and wood-burning stove, and in two cottages amid a lovely English garden that holds a memorably fragrant purple rose bush. All of the cozy rooms are a little different, and most have pine furniture, stenciling on the walls, and ocean views. Bed linens are 600-thread-count Neiman Marcus sheets, and they are always ironed.
