Guests are easily able to access Kentucky's finest attractions and experience multiple aspects of this diverse state. Located in Central Kentucky guests are easy able to access historic and diverse cities such as Harrodsburg, Lexington, Louisville, Midway, Frankfort, and Versailles.

Ready to welcome guests from around the world, all living spaces are available for guests to use, including our private courtyard.

Situated in the heart of Kentucky’s capital city, Frankfort and within Central Kentucky, a place famous for its bourbon and horses, guests will be charmed by this recently renovated historic home. No matter your reason for travel, this home offers all the modern-day amenities a guest could desire.

Thoughtful in every detail, guests will experience the historic charm through the signature style of Castle & Key.

First Floor:
The modest mainstreet side entry belies a grand welcome within the antique doors. Guests will spill into a luxurious sitting room ripe for relaxation and libation after a long day of Kentucky adventure. Beyond the sitting room is a beautiful library filled with antique books, Castle & Key memorabilia and historic photographs.

The dining room comfortably seats 8 guests. Local chefs specializing in local cuisine and farm to table fare are available to cater upon request.

Adjacent to the dining room is an informal bar space with all the tools needed to craft a perfect cocktail for yourself or your guests.

Each bedroom features a Smart TV.

We invite you to join us to enjoy Kentucky’s hospitality at its best.

Guests are able to walk to many local attractions, but the best way to travel Central KY, is by personal vehicle.
