In the middle of nowhere - close to everything! Stay in elegance & comfort The Barrel House is in our 6th year of operation and originally we catered to "Bourbon enthusiasts". However, over these past 5 years, we have had so many guests stay with us for family vacations and reunions, bird watching, star gazing, history seeking, biking and touring as well as spirits! Whatever your reason to visit, you have EVERY reason to stay at the Barrel House. We are just a half hour to many interesting destinations including two trains, the Abbey of Gethsemani, museums, Lincoln and Civil war history trails and last but certainly not least, the world famous Bourbon Trail and wineries. Our house boasts king beds in both of our bedrooms and a lux shower, as well as a pavillion for outdoor dining and easy unloading of belongings. Our property has 6 acres of rolling hills for hiking. Our idea of nightlife is cozying up to a fire with a good pour, good friends and good conversation, not to mention a breath taking view of the sky. You will need to bring your own provisions as I don't keep food up at the bnb any longer.
