Nestled in acres of Kentucky woods and hills, Castle Hill Haven is close to civilization but worlds away from its bustle.

Relax in your Tower Suite, complete with luxury ensuite bathroom and almost 700 sq. ft. of living space, spectacular views, and a private balcony, or in one of five other bedrooms. Climb the spiral staircase to curl up with a book from the third-floor library or read in the Tower Suite window seat overlooking the front lawn. Pick berries and apples when they're in season, ramble in eleven acres of private land, or take a stroll down to the barn to see the chickens or feed the goats. The kids in your party can enjoy the play area in the third-floor library or play in The Cottage, a heated/cooled two-story playhouse with attached play set and a sitting/sleeping room with TV/DVD player and twin lofts. Use of the Cottage is available for day use or sleeping space for an additional $49 per day.

Cook dinner in our fully-stocked custom kitchen. Enjoy meals on one of two outdoor decks or in one of three indoor eating areas (see photos), complete with KamadoJoe grill.
