Informazioni su questa struttura

Railway Guest House in Charming Midway KY Horse Park,Bourbon Trail,Keeneland.

This unique, early 1800’s historic house sits 50 FEET from the railroad. The train blows by 3x during the day, tooting & whistling away & once or twice at night. It is the second oldest residence built in Midway. The plot of land where the house sits was one of the initial purchases from the railroad company which was one the first towns in KY to build a Railroad Town.
Guests will enjoy their private, bright & cozy upstairs with 2 nicely sized bedrooms with plenty of closet space. The bathroom in between the bedrooms & breakfast nook is very small, but clean & efficient. There is a mini fridge, coffee & tea station. Ice bucket @ 5:00 pm each night is available upon request. Entrance & exit is through the front door & through the one-room art gallery which is closed off from the rest of the house. 9 ORIGINAL VERY STEEP & NARROW STAIRS leads to the cheery upstairs accommodations. STAIRS ARE NOT FOR PEOPLE WITH MOBILITY ISSUES. BIG, HEAVY SUITCASES ALSO WILL POSE A PROBLEM IF YOU ARE NOT UP FOR WRANGLING THEM UP THE 9 STAIR CLIMB. Please see pictures :)
Ample off street parking is available. If you are bicycle-touring/racing, garage arrangements in back can be be made for bicycles. Off street horse trailer parking can also be arranged.
Ellen, the host, lives in the back part of the house which is closed off from the art gallery room & upstairs. The house is located on the residential side of Main St. (aka Railroad St.) & is 1/2 block away from restaurants & shops where you will also find Ellen’s Art Gallery & Gift Shop THROW ME A CARROT.

Beautiful Historic Home Right in Midway

This is such a beautiful historic home. Location couldn’t have been better for our days at Keeneland since we could go in the pretty back roads and miss the huge traffic jams. At night, we booked dinner in some fabulous small restaurants in Midway, which were just a few steps away. The home was comfortable and yes, the stairs are steep, but no problem for us. Would absolutely stay here again!

Serenity

Beautifully appointed home in historical and charming Midway where art, restaurants (foodie delight), unique boutiques, quiet walks and pleasant greetings are plentiful. Downtown is just across the street to these conveniences. Taking a tour of a horse farm, Bourbon distillery or winery is only minutes away and well worth the time spent. Lexington is minutes away for all the attractions, but quite honestly Midway and this beautiful home provided such serenity that we felt this was a home away from home and it was hard to leave. The host is very warm and welcoming and we were treated like friends as if we've known each other our whole life. This entire trip has been memorable for the ages and this property and host were the little gem that made is absolutely perfect!

Charming 1830’s cottage

A girlfriend and I had an event in Frankfort, just 15 miles away, and wanted a more interesting experience than can be found in a hotel. We both really enjoyed this home, full of the owner/artist’s colorful, whimsical art. Each of us had a spacious bedroom of antique furniture, with a small well equipped bathroom, and a sitting area with window, coffee, tea and small refrigerator off of the landing between us. The gardens were beautiful, and Ellen was a great host. The steps are steep but we had no problems climbing them, and the rope handrail felt authentic. We would definitely stay here again. We also enjoyed the eclectic little shops and restaurants in downtown Midway, within easy walking distance.

Weekend Getaway

As two working moms, we were excited to have a weekend where our calendars aligned. This cute little house was the perfect space and location. In the morning we were able to walk and grab a cup of coffee before heading out to a few distilleries. In the evenings, we took advantage if the nearby restaurants. The space was clean and there were cute touches throughout. As stated in the description, the stairs up are narrow and steep. The shower is also very small, functional and clean, but small. If you sleep late, you will want to know there are a couple trains that go by “early”(after 7 am). The tracks are just on the other side of the street close to the front of the house. As an early riser, this wasn’t a problem for me. Overall, it was prefect for two moms needing a couple of nights away. I would definitely stay here again.

This is our 3rd stay with Ellen for a well needed girl’s weekend. As always, we left with more great memories. Ellen is a very attentive host and we love the convenience of being able to walk to the dinner on Main St. Having coffee in the morning was very cozy. That’s all we needed! Thanks Ellen, We’ll be back.

In town for the Thoroughbred Makeover at the Kentucky Horse Park.

My stay couldn’t have been more perfect! The horse park is a short drive and several excellent restaurants are within walking distance. The town of Midway and the accommodations were absolutely charming. Ellen’s beautiful artwork, fascinating life story and love of horses (as evidenced in her art) made my stay even more memorable and special. I would definitely recommend a stay here. Ellen, thank you so much for a fabulous stay.

A Cozy Place to Stay

Staying at Ellen's was very refreshing. Ellen was very easy to work with and very patient with answering my questions. I was a little concerned about being near the train tracks, but it was very cool! Most of the time we didn't know it had went by! The steep stairs were challenging, but staying in a historical place made it worthwhile.

An Artistic Treasure!

Cannot say enough wonderful things about our 4 night stay at the Railway House in Midway, KY! From the darling home with very comfortable accommodations, immersion in the owner's gallery of bright whimsical equine art, the location in picturesque Midway to Ellen's gracious hospitality and engaging personality, made our visit 5 star plus! Great location & proximity to the entire Bluegrass area and Midway is the quintessential quaint Southern town with a variety of great restaurants and shops. We are looking forward to many more visits with Ellen!
