Somewhere in Time B&B

Lexington, Ohio.

Take your spirit back to the early 1900s and enjoy the warm and friendly atmosphere of the old Martin Touby Mansion. Read a book in the parlor, sit in the garden, or walk to the barn and pasture where horses and other animals spend their days.

Bed and Breakfast Description

The Homestead is a gorgeous turn-of-the-century home, built by Martin Touby in 1904. The home features 12" exterior walls (double bricked), hardwood floors and beautiful oak and cherry woodwork. The beautiful wood staircase takes you to a sitting area on the second floor and to the four bedrooms and three baths. The first floor welcomes guests in the gathering room to socialize, the beautiful dining room, or parlor where guests are welcome to play the piano or shut the pocket doors for privacy. Guests may enjoy special time on the wrap-around porch filled with wicker rockers or the back patio overlooking a beautiful herb garden and horses grazing in the pasture below. The home has been remodeled to include all mechanical updates, including air conditioning, while retaining the charm of the early 1900's.

Accommodations include two large bedrooms with king-size beds and private baths and one room with a queen-size bed and one with two three-quarter beds which share a bath. Full breakfast is included.

Take an old fashion sleigh ride in winter or a picnic lunch by the creek and rockers on the wraparound porch.

We also offer over-night horse boarding for those guests who wish to ride the many trails nearby.
