    May 07, 2013

    The innkeeper, Lisa is a gem. A great hostess and a fabulous cook. Our rooms wer comfortable, the breakfast delish, a delightful experience. We stayed, unfortunately one night on our way to Asheville, NC - if we would have known what a delight this Inn would be I believe we would have stayed longer! Who would have know there was so much to do in and near Loretto, KY. I can assure you should we travel this way again our stay at Lisa's will be more than one night. Christine

    Over the top

    April 29, 2013

    We loved our visit to Loretta and our stay at The Hill House Bed and Breakfast. We were taken care of extremely well and they went over the top to make sure we had what ever we needed. The beds were extremely comfortable and the hostess was delightful as were the other guests. It is a perfect place to stay while visitng the Maker's Mark Distillary or the Sisters of Loretta.
