Richard and Pam were great hosts! Very knowledgeable of everything to do in the area. It was our first B & B and it was such a neat experience! Breakfast was amazing! Thanks for making Brady’s birthday special! That was so cute and thoughtful!

The Perfect Place
This is a perfect place! My husband and I stayed along with two other couples in order to visit the distilleries in the area (Four Roses, Buffalo Trace, Woodford Reserve, and Wild Turkey). Pamela and Richard were amazing hosts. They recommended the bourbon bar and pizza place a short walk from the property, the Heirloom in historic Midway, and told us how to watch the horses train at Keeneland. All were wonderful enhancements to our planned activities. The breakfasts and afternoon "snacks" were all delicious. Snack in quotations because they call it a snack, but it was enough food to replace a meal. Pamela and Richard were very flexible with the timing of meals and offered several choices for each. The rooms and bathrooms were spotless, and the king-sized beds were very comfortable. A quick text was all that was needed to get more towels, shampoo, etc. Each couple had their own room of course, but we all gathered in the beautiful dining room for breakfast, the patio for snack, and in the evenings in the lovely living room where there is a wet bar with ice maker, a variety of glasses, and soft drinks. You can BYOB adult beverages. I wish I had a magic portal to instantly transport the Charred Oaks Inn and Pamela and Richard anywhere we travel!

This place is beautiful!! Snacks and breakfast were amazing! The bed was so comfortable. I wish I could have stayed another night or 7! It’s close to Woodford reserve distillery and some good restaurants and bars. Hospitality was spot on! Best hosts ever!

We had a lovely, spacious room with a very comfortable bed in a beautifully restored historic home. The innkeepers, Pamela and Richard, are friendly and helpful without being intrusive. The home is quiet yet well located for easy access to Lexington, Keeneland and bourbon distilleries. There are many nice touches like free dessert and cheese and crackers set out in the evening, in addition to a full breakfast.

Our hosts really went the extra mile for us. They made superb recommendations for activities and helped make reservations at the best restaurants in the area. A complementary bottle of champagne and a card wishing us a happy anniversary just magically appeared. In short, we were treated better than family. It was this and so many other little details, such as fresh flowers in all the rooms and beautifully presented foods, that made our stay so pleasant. Pam and Richard are genuine and generous. We will certainly be back!

This is an amazing place. The suites are large, comfortable, and well appointed. Richard and Pamela are the perfect hosts. The breakfast provided was fit for a 5 star hotel. I cannot imagine a more perfect place to stay.

Richard and Pamela are wonderful, experienced hosts. They are more than willing to give you help and tips to find anything you may wish to do or see around the Versailles area. Their 200+ year old home is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy its beautiful setting. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Perfection in Versailles
Sometimes a place is so special that it's like the best of your family. That's been my experience at the Charred Oaks Inn. This was my second stay in seven months and I live thousands of miles away. Of course the location itself is wonderful and the town of Versailles is beautiful but the Inn simply adds the additional dimension that makes a visit perfection.

Lovely B&B close to Castle and Racetrack
Met at the door and welcomed by the owners. We enjoyed wine and Irish Cheddar with crackers in the living room at 4:00 p.m Returned from dinner at the Castle and enjoyed the best chocolate cake waiting for us in the living room. Slept well in a comfy, nicely decorated room. Wakened to a delicious breakfast that we selected from a menu the night before. We will definitely stay there again.
