On a recent month-long road trip, we decided to visit the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, go to some races at Keenland, visit Shaker Village and enjoy some of the beautiful horse farms in the Lexington area. We were once again delighted with our choice to stay at A Storybook Inn. This was our second visit and we chose to stay in... More

Wow, what an amazing anniversary weekend! The inn is beautifully decorated, and feels so luxurious. The breakfasts were so delicious! We were also able to indulge in late afternoon treats and wine! It was so lovely to have an in room massage, it just made it that much more relaxing. All of Elise's restaurant recommendations were great.

First of all, I am NOT a B&B type person. But my 3 sisters are. We gathered from California, Virginia and West Virginia for the first Christmas we have all been together in years. What an amazing place. Elise is a master of her craft of inn keeping. We stayed in the guest house so we would have a place... More

I took my mother to the Storybook Inn for their Christmas Tea. It was easily the best I've ever been to. The rooms - living room, hallway, conservatory- were beautifully and cleverly decorated for the holidays. Everywhere you looked you saw little touches that added to the overall ambience. The food was delicious and well presented. I had Earl Grey... More

First of all, the grounds of this circa 1830 estate are restful, quiet & peaceful. A Storybook Inn itself is absolutely beautiful with lush, yet comforting public rooms on the first floor, a gorgeous conservatory in which to partake of breakfast or afternoon teas when offered (Christmas as example). The second floor suites are wonderfully themed from films and decor... More

Please DO NOT HESITATE to make your reservations and stay at A Storybook Inn if you are in the Lexington area. The attention to detail, level of service and wonderful dining are just the start of what we experienced. Elise, Veronica and the staff made a stress-filled previous 3 months melt away upon arrival. It is our new destination location... More

I am the naturally suspicious type. If something sounds too good to be true then I tend to think that it is.
