The gift giving season has arrived and life can get pretty busy. While the holidays are full of gatherings, parties and celebrations, a quiet getaway to charming Bardstown will rejuvenate the soul. Here discover the “Most Beautiful Small Town in America,” that offers a relaxing escape during this hectic time. Stroll the historic downtown and visit the unique shops, museums and pubs, all decorated for the season. Bardstown is also known as the Bourbon Capital of the World, with dozens of local distilleries. At the center of the beautiful town find The Bourbon Manor Bed and Breakfast. While our park-like, wooded setting feels like a remote hideaway, guests can easily walk to downtown. However, our inn has everything needed to unwind at our location. Every morning begin with a gourmet breakfast, pamper yourself at the on-site day spa and top off the evening with a cocktail at our Bourbon bar. Book your Bardstown escape with us today or give the gift of a tranquil retreat with a thoughtful gift certificate.
The Gift of a Bardstown Winter Vacation
While Bardstown has the quiet charm of stepping back in time, there’s still plenty to 
do. A holiday or winter getaway here has the perfect balance of relaxation and activities. We invite you to stroll our lovely town, sip a fine bourbon drink and explore the local history.
Of course Bardstown is famous for the best bourbon and any visit must include touring
the local distilleries. Learn about the history and distilling process while sampling the warming, amber drink. Find your new favorite or a wonderful gift for family and friends. For even more bourbon lore, visit the Oscar Getz Museum of Whiskey History. Not as well known as the bourbon are the fantastic wineries in the area. Sip wonderful wines at Springhill Winery, Chuckleberry Farm and Winery, and Forest Edge Winery.
During the holidays Bardstown’s beautiful downtown has all the classic traditions. The town hosts a tree lighting ceremony, candlelit tours, and parades. Admire the lights and 
decorations while strolling the shops, museums, and art galleries. Then take a break at a historic pub for a delicious lunch and warm up with a smooth bourbon cocktail.
My Old Kentucky Home, Bardstown’s famous restored mansion, holds two special Christmas events. The “Merry & Bright” tour shows off the home decked out for the holidays including six, 12 foot tall Christmas trees. Your Victorian dressed guides will sing traditional songs, and reveal strange holiday customs of the era. During the tour learn about the Christmas pickle, Yule Log, Krampus and why sword fighting frogs appeared on Victorian Christmas cards. Each room of the home becomes the stage during their “A Christmas Carol” play. Share the journey through the mansion with Ebenezer Scrooge and his discovery of the true meaning of Christmas.
