    2010

    Just 70km north of Tel Aviv, The Farmhouse at Bat Shlomo Vineyards is a magical countryside getaway that melds a fully integrated winery, a luxury guesthouse and a farm-to-table culinary experience with contemporary Israeli art, design and architecture. The Farmhouse is one of Bat Shlomo's 13 original homes built by graduates of the Baron de Rothschild’s agricultural school in 1889.
