Farm-Fresh Breakfast at Our Kentucky Bed and Breakfast

Every stay at Maple Hill Manor begins with a homemade breakfast served in our historic 1851 dining room, followed each evening by a dessert social. Meals feature Kentucky Proud ingredients and eggs from our own chickens, plus dietary accommodations.

Start Your Day Off Right in Our Historic Dining Room

Start every morning of your weekend getaways off right, in the elegant dining room at our Bed and Breakfast. It’s a gracious space designed to set the tone for a relaxed and memorable day. The room’s focal point is a hand-painted mural commissioned by former owner Sylvia Smith around 1970, depicting the Manor as it appeared in 1851. A stately fireplace and two soaring nine-foot windows frame views of the patio and gazebo garden, filling the space with natural light and timeless charm.

Breakfast at the Manor

Each morning, breakfast is freshly prepared and served between 8:30 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. For guests departing early, convenient to-go options are available before 8:00 a.m.—simply note your preference during Digital Registration.

We are happy to accommodate special dietary needs with advance notice, including gluten-free, keto, vegetarian, sugar-free, and allergy-specific requests, ensuring every guest can enjoy a satisfying start to the day.

Evening Dessert & Beverage Social

The hospitality doesn’t stop at breakfast! At Maple Hill Manor, gracious Southern hospitality and thoughtful touches are woven through every part of your stay. As you return to our historic Bed and Breakfast in the evening—perhaps after a day on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, exploring Bardstown’s historic downtown, or simply unwinding in our peaceful gardens—join us from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. for a homemade dessert in the dining room, accompanied by coffee and tea. 

This relaxed gathering is a delightful way to satisfy your sweet tooth and connect with fellow guests during your getaway. Then linger a little longer on the grounds, where hammocks, garden gazebos, firepits, and cozy outdoor seating make the perfect spot to enjoy the evening before retiring to your room.
