Location is excellent as very close to Buxton where there are nice restaurants, shops, gardens etc. Great base for visiting the surrounding area. Property is spacious but could do with some maintenance. Parking on the street is a nightmare unless you have a tiny car.

As group of 7 friends we had a wonderful time at the Cottage. The property, particularly the kitchen, is fully kitted out with everything you could need during your stay. There was plenty of space in the bedrooms with comfy beds. The living room is slightly small if all adults are staying, but the dining room can easily sit everyone. Easy and beautiful stroll into the centre of Buxton, very lucky we had a sunny weekend to enjoy it all to the fullest. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Cottage was as advertised, easy instructions and communication, clean and comfortable. Well equipped. Living room a little small for six adult occupants.
