On a warm, sunny day in Kentucky, there is no better spot that a lounge chair by the pool. Lounging at a neighborhood pool, a water park, or if you’re lucky, your own back yard, can all be relaxing, but sometimes you need to truly get away. You can do that and remain in the Bluegrass State with a stay at The Kentucky Castle. This incredible destination in Versailles is a boutique hotel, restaurant, event space, and has had a complete transformation over the past few years. It also now has the best pool in Kentucky, tucked away inside this majestic castle, and it’s utterly indulgent.
There was once quite a bit of mystery surrounding the castle on the hill in Versailles, but this majestic place is now known as The Kentucky Castle, and it’s an amazing destination in the Bluegrass.

The grounds of the castle are what has changed the most recently, with the addition of more landscaping, gardens, and even some friendly animals. Many of these efforts are meant to make the castle more sustainable, as well as interesting for visitors.

But perhaps the most beautiful outdoor addition in the past year is the pool. The property had a pool when the renovations began, but it has been completely redone and is available for those with overnight reservations.

The pool opens for the season on May 31st, and there’s no other lounging experience quite like it. Since there are not many rooms at the hotel, you’ll have peace and quiet while relaxing poolside, and also beautiful views of the castle and surrounding farmland.
