A Butler's Manor
An elegant Colonial house built in 1860 by the Jagger family -- one of the earliest English settlers to Southampton -- and now the home of Christopher and Kimberly Allen, A Butler's Manor combines a sense of tradition with the comforts of today.
A Butler's Manor takes its name from Christopher's profession. A proper British butler with over 20 years experience, Chris has run estates in both Europe and America. The personal service that is the hallmark of his profession, along with Kim's attention to detail, will make your stay at A Butler's Manor an experience in hospitality you won't soon forget.
