We recently spent two nights at the Butterfield and we could have stayed longer. The room was charming, the hosts engaging and knowledgable, and the breakfasts were fabulous. A return trip is a must!

My husband and I planned a trip to Julian in January 2012. We needed to get out of the city for some relaxation and tranquility. We hardly ever get to escape our busy schedules unless we plan months in advance.This can be difficult to do when college is in session. So, we decided to plan a simple and short trip... More

My husband whisked me away to the charming town of Julian, Ca, and treated me to a stay in this wonderful Bed and Breakfast. We stayed in the cozy RoseBud cottage on a snowy night. We made good use of the wood burning stove and firewood which they provided. The owners recommended an excellent place for dinner, Julian Grille. This... More

Spent a night in the Stanza Italia room at Butterfield Bed and Breakfast on February 10, 2012. Dawn and Ed accommodated us with our last-minute reservations and made us feel very welcome. They made sure that we had the right directions for arrival and showed us around as soon as we arrived. There are plenty of special little attractions for... More

Let me start by saying this weekend was a surprise planned by my (now fiance) for our two year anniversary. He had done his research and discovered this gem of a place just a mile from downtown Julian. Wow did he ever get it right! He chose the cozy Feathernest room which was absolutely perfect. Little did I know but... More

I came up for some relaxing time away from home. Dawn and Ed thought of everything you might need such as umbrellas, snacks and beverages and a huge library of videos and books in the common area including lots of books and information about the area. They were very warm and welcoming and full of great tips for enjoying my... More

My husband and I just spent a lovely couple of nights at Dawn and Ed's B&B. If space was available we'd have booked another night. It was great being at 4,000 ft. elevation so there was the feel of winter in the air, with a warm fireplace glowing when we got up in the morning and at the end of... More

Visiting from UK and staying with family in San Diego, we wanted a few days away and decided on Julian. We found Butterfield B&B on the Chamber of Commerce website and booked at very short notice. How lucky we were! We were welcomed warmly by Dawn and Ed, our room was cosy and comfortable and the breakfasts were amazing! We... More

Stayed in the Stanza Italia, and were lucky enough to get a room with same day reservation. The grounds are lovely, Ed and Dawn are approachable and down to earth, and the room was fantastic. After enjoying the amazing fall colors and the quaint shops in Julian, we hunkered down in our room and sat in front of the fireplace... More
