Travel Tip
Think about packing clothes and footwear for the weather, notebook, sketch book, camera, rainhat or umbrella if desired. You'll find people in the Pacific North West typically don't really wear raincoats.
All of our tours are walking tours, and include a lovely hand prepared "Pret A Porter" lunch from the Auberge de Seattle cuisine. We'll set up a picnic lunch for you on a wood foldout picnic table with chairs.
Tours typically depart from L'Auberge de Seattle Inn at 10:00 am. These tours are for our guests and vary from 4 to 7 hours. Your tour guides have an unquenchable passion for the beauty of the garden, revealed through innovative designs and cutting edge plants. Both are graduates of the Landscape Horticulture School of South Seattle Community College. One is an instructor and the other a landscape designer. You either will be hosted by Miss Claire in the picture to your right or Instructor Peter. Some of these gardens require an advance phone reservation and allow only a limited number of visitors per day. With the busy summer season fast approaching, we suggest you make your reservation for the Gourmet Garden Walks way in advance.

Close your eyes, imagine, and relax with all your senses as you take in and enjoy our French Country Inn...modeled after the Inns of the Loire Valley of France. Your stay is more than a moment; it is feeling of being transported to a magical place.... We are a romantic Auberge Inn that is modeled after the French Country Inns that are known for being hidden away, where they offer total privacy and serenity in a luxury setting that is conducive to romance and developing whole body wellness.
As in the quiet secluded private Auberge's of Europe, hidden away in a forest of evergreen, we are especially enticing for lovers who seek a romantic setting away from it all for the day, week or longer. Well off the beaten path covering five acres, lovers can roam the grounds, sit on the veranda, and enjoy homemade tarts, cakes and other treats upon request. Our private suites and apartment are available at reasonable prices. We are beautifully furnished and accessorized. Just bring your suitcase: everything else is waiting for you, from fresh flowers in your room to extra pjs and night gowns in your drawers!
L'Auberge Edge of Seattle is in the Woodinville Wine Country, on the East Side of Seattle between Redmond and Woodinville. From the main road look for our gravel drive way with a street sign called "REMY WAY". You'll pass our lavender flower rock entrance, fruit trees, green house, raspberry plantings, vegetable garden, and a strawberry patch.
Upon request we will serve a light supper on your arrival day. We offer Thursday afternoon Tea Parties, twice a month French Regional Dinner Cooking Classes and a once a month wine tasting seminar, which are all available for your enjoyment. |
