We had a wonderful stay at Buzzards View, an amazing location and was great to spot the Buzzard fly by and all the lovely animals and views surrounding the property. Accommodation was lovely and comfortable and exactly suited us. Nearest amenities are not far away in Brixham, where you have a choice of all the supermarkets. Lovely walks from the property although with the National Trust property nearby you do have to watch for traffic along first part of the lanes from the property.

A lovely cottage to stay in, central location to travel around the coastal area, fabulous views of nature and wildlife, on a clear night the sky and stairs are magnificent.Jeff was more than welcoming, very friendly and told us about the local area and the farm when it was a working farm. Peaceful, tranquil and a place to stay to unwind from the stresses of life😊
