BUXTON

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.

Friendly, pleasant owners with a bottle of milk provided on arrival. There was a good laundrey room. Excellent location near to Buxton, a beautiful area for walking.

The area we stayed in was very convenient for many of the tourist attractions and local towns. The cottage is in a small hamlet so there is much peace and quiet and it was a lovely place to relax in. Local footpaths led to beautiful views.
