Perfect location for easy walking to all bars and restaurants on the main drag. If your looking for a very relaxing cocktail, I would recommend Liam Ash (a couple of blocks away)

This cute place was ideal for us! It is walkable to everything we wanted in downtown Bardstown. Our only complaint was the bed. It was very soft and we rolled to the middle that is a personal preference. Very clean and accommodating. I would highly recommend!

Fantastic stay! Extra clean, quaint, and convenient for walking in and around historic downtown Bardstown! Host was outstanding - easy access and clear communication! Walked to Heaven Hill Distillery, took a carriage ride, and enjoyed the numerous restaurants (Old Talbott Tavern, Rickhouse, Pat’s Place, and more). 30 minute drive to the Bernheim Forest Arboretum to see three Thomas Danbo Trolls and the Jim Beam Distillery. Easy and ample street parking!

Great location and clean historical house. Needed more detailed instructions about the lock and were sent 2 different lock codes, which I inquired about and received back what appeared as a general reply which did not address my question. However the host did respond to our call from the property and helped me get in. Would stay again.

The place is a little difficult finding at night, the main house doesn't have any outside lights, just lights on the guest house, which are difficulty seeing from the road. It is a good idea to trun on flashlight on your phone walking back to the house. There are cracks in the driveway and the front step has a severe incline. The house was very clean upon arrival. The couch has no cushioning, it felt like I was sitting on the floor kissing my knees. The bed felt like it has a valley in the center of the bed. I asked the host for a breakfast restaurant recommendation, never got a response. The coffee carafe spout is broken, it was a little difficult pouring a cup of coffee without spilling all over the counter. Other than that it was a nice place.
