Gorgeous Cottage!

This is one of the best vacation rentals we’ve stayed in. The photos don’t do Belle Vue Cottage justice- it’s even newer, nicer and cleaner in person, and the landscaping is gorgeous! If you’re looking for a home away from home that’s in close proximity to Buellton, Solvang, Los Olivos or Lompoc, then don’t hesitate to book. The hosts are the nicest people and have included everything you might need for a very comfortable stay. We hope to return for a longer stay next time!

Stunning home! A must stay in Buellton!

Amazing stay in wine country! The home is absolutely beautiful. It was the most beautiful vrbo rental we have ever stayed at. Owners welcomed us to their home and made sure we had everything that we needed for our stay. Backyard patio and waterfall koi pond gives it an added touch. You feel like you are on a magical vacation in the beautiful farmhouse style suite with large bathroom shower and very comfortable soft queen bed. There is even a washer and dryer if needed. There is everything you need and more in the kitchen and coffee bar area. We highly recommend this property for a quiet weekend in wine country. Location was perfect and the evenings were delightful in the quiet neighborhood. We would stay here again in an instant!!

Amazing, quiet home!

We were so pleased with our stay! The home is so comfortable, quiet and the hosts have literally thought of everything! Very close to some of the best food you will ever eat in your life! S Y Kitchen, Industrial Eats, etc. We also really enjoyed the back garden area. We ate our breakfast there every day, surrounded by hummingbirds. This home is perfect for a couples get away weekend. We met Richard and Sky (the dog) and they were both absolutely lovely! We cannot say enough about how comfortable and perfectly appointed this property is. Don't miss the sunset over the mountains from the front yard. We are very excited to stay here again. We absolutely loved this home! Thank you so much for having us!!!

Awesome guesthouse experience

To start with - we have stayed in many other rentals and rank Richard as probably one of the most caring host we have had. They have done an absolutely outstanding job in this place that - although attached to the main home - feels like you're in your own private home. Everything in this place is of the highest quality and even the backyard has, like the house, so many special touches that allow you to truly enjoy your time both inside and outside the home while you're there. We were their 1st long term guests (for 5 weeks) and, with the way the place is configured and the many amenities provided, we were always extremely comfortable (so much so that the time just flew by) and we couldn't thank Richard enough for providing us such a wonderful place to stay and enjoy this beautiful area of the central coast.

Cozy farmhouse cottage getaway

This was the perfect place for a quick getaway to the Buellton/Solvang/Santa Ynez area. It is conveniently located close to shopping, wine tasting, hiking, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed the cottage. Not only was it cute, but it was extremely clean, comfortable and very quiet. Everything in it was new and of excellent quality. We came here to celebrate my wife's birthday and were so surprised with the balloons, banner, and chilled bottle of wine awaiting us! We actually enjoyed the wine in the beautiful back garden area watching the hummingbirds and the koi in the pond. The seasonal touches and the Halloween decorations were fun & amazing. Richard and Toni were very attentive, checking in with us to assure that everything was to our satisfaction (it was!). The whole experience more than met our expectations! We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Richard Slowikowski

Host profile image
My name is Richard, and my wife, Antoinette — Toni — and I own and live in the main home next to Belle Vue Cottage. We moved to the Santa Ynez Valley in 2008 and have loved calling Buellton home ever since. We are retired after long careers in retail and truly enjoy the opportunity to host visiting guests. We are close by if you have questions or need anything during your stay, but we also respect your privacy so you can relax and enjoy the cottage as your own peaceful retreat.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this beautiful area because of its peaceful setting, wonderful climate, scenic views, wineries, restaurants, and small-town charm. Buellton is perfectly located near Solvang, Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, and the surrounding wine country, making it a great place to enjoy the best of the Santa Ynez Valley. We created Belle Vue Cottage so others could experience the same comfort, beauty, and relaxed lifestyle that made us want to call this area home.

What makes this property unique

Belle Vue Cottage is a private guest cottage with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and memorable sunsets from the front windows and porch. Guests can relax outside with a glass of wine, enjoy the peaceful garden setting, listen to the tranquil sound of the waterfall, and unwind in a quiet retreat close to wineries, restaurants, scenic drives, and everything the Santa Ynez Valley has to offer. The cottage was personally created and thoughtfully decorated to feel warm, comfortable, and welcoming.
