It was the constant 28 degrees centigrade of the bubbling blue waters of Buxton's eight thermal springs that originally attracted the Romans to the town. However it was during the 18th and 19th Centuries, under the patronage of successive Dukes of Devonshire, that the Palladian splendour of the Buxton of today was designed and built - including the magnificent semi-circular Crescent, The Great Stable, Hall Bank, The Square, The Pavilion Gardens and The Opera House. Today visitors continue to enjoy these magnificent buildings and gardens, as well as the Opera House's full programme and annual Festival of Music and Arts. There is good walking close by with rugged peaks to the north and gentle hills and dales to the south. A great base for exploring the Peak District.

Previous visitors' comments about The Shavings:
The location was excellent. Owners were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Particularly liked the fact that tea, coffee and milk were waiting for us plus some posh biscuits. Accommodation was very clean and excellent value for money.

Friendly and helpful owners, nothing was too much trouble for them. The Shavings is in a beautiful area with lovely walks.
Mrs Ruffles, Ipswich, June 2011
The location and area was fantastic and the accommodation was just what we needed in terms of a base to explore the Peak District. Also we could take our dog which was an added bonus. The hamlet of Cowdale was lovely with access to some great country walks.
Mrs Wright, Beverley, June 2011
Clean and comfortable quality accommodation in the midst of stunning countryside.
