Buzzard’s Rise somehow manages to feel homely and slightly glamorous. It’s a great base for exploring the area and the owners are on hand to help you do that. We were recommended two great locations for dogs walks which meant I spent my mornings walking along a river or admiring stunning views from the hills. When the weather failed us we curled up in front of the fire and watched the rain come down. ...

Buzzard's Rise is joint first in our rating of all the holiday homes we have booked, over the last 16 years of holidaying in the UK, (multiple times a year, so that makes quite a lot of cottages we have visited!). The attention to detail on what guests need and how to make us feel comfortable was brilliant, even down to useful lead/coat/towel hooks, boot racks and coat dripping space outside! The quality of the fittings, fixtures & equipment was amazing and to have lovely glasses to drink out of and two cafetieres to accommodate decaf & caffeine drinkers was fabulous! The secure and huge garden was totally amazing for our piece of mind and our energetic terrier, Darcy, loved having space to chase her ball. (She even improved on her recall & allowing us to pat her outside, during her holiday, big progress for our Rehomer!) We loved that she could be left outside exploring without worry of her expanding her exploring further than the garden! To walk in and feel immediately at home, is a rare experience in a holiday home, but Buzzard's Rise, certainly felt like home and was immaculately clean, warm and cosy. The provision of ample wood for the fire, cleaning materials, dishwasher tablets etc. and a beautiful Welcome Hamper were the ''icing on the cake'' (or ''cream on the scone'', might be more apt!). Vicki and Jon have done a fabulous job with this property and were so helpful with useful tips of walks, places to visit and cafes in the area. It is certainly our intention to return for another wonderful stay, explore further, complete more walks and hopefully, use the outside seating area and fire pit. (The weather over New Year was a little challenging for sitting outside, even for us!) ...

We can't thank you enough for such an amazing review of Buzzards Rise! We're over the moon that it's up there as one of the best you've ever stayed in after an impressive 16 years of holidaying in the UK! What's especially nice to read is just how much Darcy the terrier got to enjoy the beautiful garden area without a care or worry in the world too. Thank you again for your delightful comments and we would love to see you visit again in the future. Joel, Customer Support...

Buzzards Rise exceeded our expectations in every way. The attention to detail was just incredible and the decor is stunning. If I could score this property it would get 20/10. We didn’t take our dogs as we were on a fact finding mission but they’ll definitely come with us next time and there will be a next time. Thanks Vicki and Jon for such a lovely welcome. ...

Buzzards Rise was exactly as it seems in the pictures, a lovely place to relax and enjoy your surroundings. There are lots of amazing dog walks very close to the property, plus a good pub in walking distance and fine dining a short taxi away.

A true gem of a cottage - one of the best we have ever stayed in. The owners have thought of everything. The garden was fully secure for our two dogs, making all the difference to a relaxing stay.
Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed in this cottage, with the few exceptions stated in our Review Guidelines.
