Cozy Retreat at Red Gate Farm

Welcome to Red Gate Farm

Free your spirit at this charming, rustic horse farm. Enjoy a private, second-floor apartment with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, a cozy living room, and a kitchenette. With keyless, PRIVATE entry, it’s the perfect spot to unplug and recharge.

THE SPACE
Nestled on a peaceful 5-acre retreat in the heart of the Saddlebred capital of the world, Red Gate Farm offers tranquility and charm. Three friendly horses call the property home and love greeting guests at the fence for a carrot and a photo op. If they’re not in the front field, feel free to take a stroll down the driveway to the back pasture for a visit.

GUEST ACCESS
You’ll have full access to the PRIVATE second-floor apartment. The host resides on the main floor with her dog who will be kenneled during your stay.

INCLUDED
-Private entrance with keypad lock
-1 bedroom with a queen bed (twin blow-up mattress available for a second or third guest)
-Kitchenette (mini fridge with freezer, microwave, single-burner hot plate, toaster oven, and Keurig coffee bar)
-Full bathroom
-Living room with a 40” Smart TV (DVD player with DVDs, plus a few games and books)
-Wi-Fi
-Fire pit

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
Conveniently located 10 minutes from I-64, 60 miles from Lexington, KY (home of the Kentucky Horse Park), and 33 miles from Churchill Downs. Downtown Shelbyville, just 10 minutes away, offers quaint restaurants, shops, and plenty of antique stores for treasure hunting. Also is conveniently located close to the Bourbon Trail.

Horses: The horses may not always be in the pasture behind the house due to pasture rotation. If they’re not in the front field, they’ll be in the back pasture behind the barn. Feel free to walk down for a visit. This is a working farm, you may see Host or her Dad doing farm maintenance, mowing or working/riding the horses.

*****In Kentucky, the Equine Activity Liability Act (KRS 411.195) states that people who participate in equine activities, assume the inherent risks involved, including injury or death caused by the horse’s unpredictable behavior. As required by this statute, there is a warning sign posted on the fence at the main gate of the property, to the right of the designated parking area.

Farm life: This is a true country escape! Expect to see wildlife like deer and coyotes and plenty of bugs.

Security: For guest safety and farm security, there is an external Ring Camera at the back of the house, monitoring the garage entry (guests do not have access unless walking to the side). A Ring Doorbell is also located at the front door.
During your stay at this holiday home, you'll be close to Clear Creek Tennis Center. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchenette in the holiday home.
