Buttermilk Hill is a small hill located in the county of Surrey, England. Situated in the southeastern part of the country, it is part of the North Downs, a ridge of chalk hills that stretches across several counties.

Rising to an elevation of approximately 200 meters (656 feet), Buttermilk Hill offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Its location within the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty makes it a popular destination for hikers, nature enthusiasts, and photographers.

The hill derives its name from the buttermilk, a traditional dairy product made by churning butter from cultured cream. This name suggests a historical association with dairy farming in the area. The landscape surrounding Buttermilk Hill is characterized by rolling green fields, scattered woodlands, and charming rural villages, contributing to its picturesque appeal.

The hill is also home to a variety of flora and fauna, with wildflowers, butterflies, and birds being commonly spotted in the area. Nature lovers can enjoy peaceful walks along the footpaths that crisscross the hill, taking in the fresh air and serene atmosphere.

Despite its relatively modest height, Buttermilk Hill offers a sense of tranquility and escape from the hustle and bustle of nearby urban centers. It is an ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat, a connection with nature, and breathtaking views of the Surrey countryside.
