A lovely apartment, very clean and welcoming with a cream tea waiting.The dogs were made to feel welcome which is a must for us.It was lovely and toastie warm which we needed as it was a very wet week.A bucket and mop might be a good idea in addition to the vacuum cleaner as I didn't like having to leave muddy paw prints on the floors for the owners to have to clean.

Lovely first floor apartment with everything you need for a break in Dorset. It was spotlessly clean and had very comfortable beds. The owners were friendly and very welcoming. The location is only a short drive away from West Bay with off street parking. We had a great time and would definitely stay at Buzzards again. Thank you.
