Guestbook for Butlers Cottage
Wow what a gorgeous little gem of a place you have.Thank you for the special touches, ( fresh coffee)my favourite brand, fresh flowers in rooms and the other extras, all went a long way to make us feel welcome. The village and surrounding area were delightful and to top it all unexpected gloriouse sunshine.
Staying in Butlers cottage made what was just a spontaneous two night break unforgettable. We did not want to leave.

Dear Ray,
We had always dreamed about a romantic week away in a Thatch cottage, Butlers Cottage was more than we could have expected, 400 years of History, and yet your tiny cosy cottage had everything we could want and more,Butlers is a place you expect on a film set.
Mr & Mrs Evans.
