A proposito di questa casastruttura in affitto
Historic Butternut Cottage - First home of actress Bette Davis in Sugar Hill, NH
Questa casa era in origine una fattoria che si dice abbia bruciato. Robert Peckett III mi informò che suo nonno viveva nel vecchio cottage quando lo vendette all'attrice Bette Davis durante una delle sue visite a Sugar Hill. Bette apportò diverse aggiunte e modifiche alla casa. In particolare, ha aggiunto un fienile e due camere per gli ospiti, un garage e una facciata protetta nella veranda. La casa dispone di mobili da cucina e piano di lavoro realizzati a mano, quattro caminetti decorativi, un camino funzionante con una stufa a propano e una stufa a legna funzionante. Il portico schermato ha molti mobili da esterno per rilassarsi nelle pigre giornate e serate estive. Una terrazza in pietra laterale offre sedie Adirondack per farti godere il giardino e la meridiana di Bette. Le camere da letto al piano superiore con pannelli in legno hanno vanità integrate e librerie che si dice siano state realizzate a mano dagli equipaggi dello studio Warner Brothers. Il bagno al piano inferiore, recentemente rinnovato, dispone di una vasca per pantofole che invita a prendere i muscoli doloranti dopo una giornata trascorsa a passeggiare sulle White Mountains o a sciare a Cannon Mountain e Mittersill Alpine Resort. Le accoglienti camere da letto al piano di sotto del fienile hanno un facile accesso a questo bagno e dispongono di pareti a pannelli e caminetti decorativi. L'attrazione principale della casa è la stanza del fienile, dove una bella collezione di foto della carriera e della vita di Bette è esposta sul muro che circonda la TV e la stufa a legna. C'è una raccolta di film di Bette in formato VCR e DVD per il tuo divertimento. Goditi una serata rilassante guardando uno dei film di Bette mentre guardi i ceppi brillare nella stufa a legna.

Amazing week at the Butternut Cottage. Beautiful surroundings and a wonderful place to totally disconnect. Historic home with all the modern updates to make it comfortable. Perfect location to explore the White Mountains and North Country. The owner was very attentive and communicative before and during our stay. The Bette Davis history was the cherry on top of a one of a kind stay.

We were delighted by the detail, comfort, and history of the cottage. Every sitting area was interesting, comfortable, and relaxing. The kitchen is superb and could easily support an ambitious meal prep. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood and taking in the peaceful surroundings of the cottage. Look for to staying again in the summer months!

We love the Franconia/Sugar Hill area have stayed in many different rentals, and this was by far the best. So amazing to experience the history of this house and see the beautiful way it has been cared for and restored. It's fun to see a picture of Bette Davis sitting right on the hearth in the living room! We spent some cozy nights by the wood stove watching her movies too. We had one minor issue with the house, and Marion could not have been more responsive and helpful. Loved our stay, and hope to be back!

One of the most lovingly updated historic properties I have stayed at! The location is beautiful and silent but convenient to 93. The building retains every ounce of its charm, original carpentry and trim while offering responsive, zoned climate control, a high-end chefs stove and hood, powerful water pressure downstairs, and comfortable bedding. Marion is a very responsive host who was helpful throughout minor hitches (like upstairs sheets that the cleaner might’ve overlooked— the only issue in an otherwise spotless, faultlessly clean home). I am a little ashamed to admit as a child of 1992 that I had never even heard of Bette Davis before staying here— I enjoyed learning about her through her old home and would also not hesitate to stay at this property regardless of that added historic value. I look forward to coming back.

We absolutely loved our stay at Bette Davis’s Butternut Cottage. More than just a cottage, it’s reminiscent of 19th century farmhouse with exposed wood beams in the ceilings and rooms throughout. With 5 fireplaces and 2 wood stoves, rumor has it Warner Bros studio craftsmen built the cabinets throughout the home for Ms Davis. Extremely private, the property is tucked away from the rarely traveled main dirt road and I was able to walk my dog for miles off leash without seeing another soul on many a morning. Sugar Hill and it’s sister community Franconia Village sit at the northern end of Franconia notch just south of the quaint 1950’s style Main Street of Littleton, NH, a must see. The views in the area are the best New Hampshire has to offer. We particularly loved the Bette Davis room where we watched her movies provided by the host on VHS. Nostalgia on all levels while surrounded by 30 photos of magazine covers, historic scenes, wedding photos and more. (There is streaming and an dvd available as well.) Even if I had never heard of Bette Davis I would want to stay in this lovingly cared for property. It is evident the owner has taken pride in restoration and upkeep of the property; no easy task. I would highly recommend a visit here if for only a weekend, a week, or, as in our case, an entire summer season.

We stayed at this wonderful cottage in October and it had everything that we could imagine. The house was very clean and well stocked to cook our nightly dinners. We enjoyed a Bette Davis movie every night along with a campfire in the evening. The area is quiet and peaceful, but still close enough to places to explore. Marian was a wonderful host and we would love to return to this special place in NH.

I meant to write this a few weeks ago. This is a great historical house that is well maintained with a nice mix of modern amenities.
It was exiting to learn about Bette Davis, the house was very comfortable and relaxing. The area is very chill great hiking and nature activities without the traffic and bustle of North Conway.
The host was responsive and cared that we had a great time and we did. We will be back

A wonderful experience. Not only is the home everything described, but it is so much more. Quiet, secluded, comfortable. The history added so much to the stay, and if you have knowledge of historical New England the artwork, heirlooms, woodwork, decorations and nearly every piece of furniture is something to take a long look of appreciation. It's far enough away to feel away, but close enough to access services and enjoy the whites. Our children loved the home and experience and we were sad to go. Hope to come back in the future.
A tip for future guests: go to the market nearby. They have everything you need and the prices are better/same for meats and vegetables. Save the drive time.

A wonderful place for a summer sojourn.
My wife and I, and our family, will always have pleasant memories of our summer visit to the Butternut Cottage. The two of us stayed for an entire month while, over that time, our son, his wife and assorted family members and friends joined us for two and three day stays. It was a wonderful place for the two of us to spend the twilight after a long hike sipping wine in the screened-in porch or, when we had guests, for a pleasant get together with loved ones. The kitchen was well equipped for both simple and more complex cooking. Each of the rooms had its own charm. Within a day or two we felt quite at home. We really appreciate the effort Marion has put into making the place welcoming and accommodating.

A must stay if you are a fan of Bette Davis! You can almost feel her presence as you enjoy your time in this lovely home. So peaceful and quiet. We loved having our morning coffee on the screened in porch, just listening to the birds chirping. Although it rained for most of our stay, there are plenty of movies, books and games to pass the time away. We will definitely go back!

We've rented from VRBO over 25 times. So, from experience, we can say this place is GREAT! Marion is excellent with all communications. You can tell she really loves this house. We stayed two months and hated to leave. The house is charming and peaceful. The pictures are accurate and the front living room is an inviting place to relax and just look outside! Plus, the Bette Davis connection and history of the house makes this rental even more special. It is rural but an easy drive in every direction, and the views around Sugar Hill are breathtaking! Would definitely rent again.

Another lovely stay
We came back after a wonderful stay this summer and had another peaceful respite. A wonderful location, a wonderful time of year to enjoy the cottage. Beautiful foliage and a flock of turkeys greeted us each day. Can't wait to come again in different season!

Butternut Cottage lived up to my high expectations!
Butternut was built by Bette Davis—a woman I have admired since I read her autobiography This n’ That when I was 17. Having the opportunity spend a few days in her home was a dream come true. Marion has created a wonderful shrine to Ms Davis in the “barn” and the entire house is in the way Ms Davis would have preferred it, colonial antiques tastefully displayed with a warm and homey vibe from the fireplaces. The screened in porch was perfect for peaceful meditation overlooking the forest in all its splendor. The kitchen is well stocked with pretty much anything you might want to cook and immediately felt like home. Super clean, great communication with Marion, who was very accommodating with a last minute special request. Thank you Marion and Butternut for a restful five days. I left feeling more energized and inspired. Hope to return, perhaps next time for an extended stay.

Wonderful retreat
We had a few days to unwind after a family trip and thoroughly enjoyed our three peaceful, quiet days at Butternut Cottage. Even the teenagers fell in love with the charming house and sat down for a screening of All About Eve. The property was a lovely space for our dog to play and for my husband and I to enjoy a glass of wine while listening to the birds. We cannot wait to return again!

Porch is amazing
The Butternut cottage had everything we needed. Plenty of space for the family, well appointed kitchen. The screened in porch was amazing! We had lazy mornings filled with coffee watching the birds float through the yard. The location was great too. A short ride to Littleton or Franconia Notch.

Charming Butternut Cottage
We loved our time at the Butternut Cottage. The house is so comfortable and lovingly maintained. We are a family of 5 and there was more than enough room for us to spread out. The location is very peaceful. Marion (the owner) was very responsive with questions and concerns.
We are planing to rent again next year and are already very excited to return!
