Buzzards View Reviews

Alex R.
The cottage was super comfy with everything we neededand those views! Can’t wait to come back soon, it was just perfect really.
Alex
The house was comfy and a perfect spot to start our North Wales adventures. The host really made us feel at home, which was lovely.
Emily
We had a really lovely stay here. The location is spot on - peaceful and so pretty, perfect for relaxing or exploring nearby. The drive up was a bit nerve-wracking at first, but after a couple of trips, it became much easierand the stunning views were totally worth it. We loved unwinding in the hot tub, enjoying the sunset with a glass of wineand just taking it slow. It’s a great spot for both adventure and chill days. Thanks for sharing your lovely place with us - we didn’t want to leave!
Jamie
Honestly, this place is a real treasure! It’s super tidy, peacefuland perfect for a chill escape. Lucy was lovely-made us feel like old friends in no time. We spent hours just relaxing with a book, soaking in the mountain viewsand didn’t want to leave. Our dog loved exploring the nearby area too. We’re already planning to come back. If you’re thinking about booking, just go for it-trust us, you won’t regret it at all!
Emma
We’re a family of four and really enjoyed our trip. There are loads of cute spots to discoverand even in the rain, the scenery is beautiful. The drive up to the cottage was a hit with the kids, though it’s not ideal for huge vehicles. Everyone was so friendly too!
Emma
We just spent a fantastic week at Buzzards View. The location is perfect, perched on a hill with stunning views of Snowdon. The drive up is quite narrow and steep, but our small family car managed fine. The house itself is warm, spaciousand super comfortable for four people plus the dogs. Plenty of walks right from the doorand the hot tub was perfect to relax those tired legs after a day exploring. We loved it!
Jamie
We had such a lovely time at this charming little cottage nestled in Welsh Wales' rolling hills. After a week over Christmas, we honestly didn't want to leave! Lucy was fantastic-really helpful and friendly. A tip: follow her directions, not the satnav, when you're driving up. The journey's a bit long but manageable, even with a big SUV like ours. The hot tub could do with a coverand the master bed is a tad firm, but overall, a great stay!
Emily Carter
We had a fantastic time at Buzzards View Cottage! From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel really welcome and looked after us. The views are stunningand the decor is spot-on - so cosy and charming. They were super helpful when our car broke down, offering assistance and friendly advice. We truly felt like honoured guests. Everything we needed was providedand our stay was just perfect. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!
Emily
We really enjoyed our stay here! The views are absolutely stunningand the cottage had everything we needed. Lucy was super helpful with directions-definitely follow her advice over sat nav. Perfect spot for a peaceful escapeand the hot tub was fantastic!
James
Perfect getaway for quiet days
Simon
This cottage was lovely with a really fine view! The best one was definitely from the main bedroom. Unfortunately, the views from the ground floor shown on the website were a bit blocked because the trees had grown quite a lot. We really appreciated the sitting room with the French doors. The hot tub was fun, though we had to deal with chasing away the flies. Lucy, the owner, lived nearby and was super helpful. There was internet, but no mobile phone coverage at all, so making calls was impossible. The access track was also very tricky.
Emily
What a lovely cottage with stunning views! It's a bit out of the way, but that's part of the charm, really. You can just enjoy the peace and quiet with only the gentle birdsong and bleating sheep for company.
Ben
This beautiful cottage is tucked away from the hustle and bustle, offering incredible views of the Conwy valley and Snowdonia in the distance. It’s warm and cosy, yet still feels spacious. The hard floors are great for our dogand we absolutely loved the hot tub with that lovely view!
Emily
We had a brilliant time with amazing views and a well equipped cottage! We would definitely come back again. The hosts were lovely, friendlyand so approachable without being intrusive. They struck a great balance. A super week spent in a special place!
Lucy
This cottage is just wonderful, with such amazing views! The hot tub is lovely and really adds to the experience. The owner was super helpful too, which we really appreciated.
Michael
We had a fantastic week at Buzzards View and what a view, absolutely superb! The cottage had everything we needed and was very clean and tidy when we arrived. The hot tub was a great bonus after a long day of walking. We will definitly be back, thanks Lucy for making us feel so welcome! Michael and Roz x
George
We had a lovely time at this cottage! The views were amazing and having a hot tub was such a nice bonus. It really made our stay special!
Lucy
This cottage is absolutely beautiful and in such a stunning location. We really chilled out to the max! Would definitely recommend itand we might return sometime.
Sarah
After following the owner's excellent directions, we arrived to stunning views. The track up to the cottage is steep and narrow but manageable with care. And without the climb, there’d be no views, so totally worth it in our opinion. Beautiful cottage, warm, comfortable and very well equipped. There were just the two of us (along with a springer and a Labrador), but plenty of room to accommodate four adults in comfort. Excellent location for many stunning walks. Highly recommend the cottage and location!
Mark
We really liked the isolation of the cottage. It was perfect for getting away from everything. We also thought it was a handy spot for exploring. The cottage is spacious, well-equippedand has a brilliant bathroom and shower room. We adored the hot tuband there’s no light polution here!
