Say hello to another property spotlight feature! We have hand-selected three idyllic self-catering properties in Buxton that we absolutely love, and we know you will, too.
Here, we showcase three beautiful properties in Buxton: West Road, Hollybush Cottage, and Spring Gardens. These properties are perfect for spending quality time in the countryside! Buxton is located in the heart of the Peak District, offering access to the most beautiful hiking trails, museums, gardens, and breathtaking landscapes. Take a walk, go cycling, or enjoy a picnic surrounded by nature, then rest up and truly enjoy every minute in these beautiful properties.
First of all, why stay in Buxton?
When you stay in one of our selected self-catering properties in Buxton, you’ll be surprised at how much there is to do locally. Here are a few places we love to visit whilst staying in the area.
Visit Buxton Pavilion Gardens: These gardens are a proper local gem and a lovely way to spend a day. The Pavilion Gardens is a Grade II-listed venue showcasing Buxton’s Victorian splendour. They are spread over 23 acres and feature a boating lake, a miniature train, play areas, fountains, and wildlife.
Visit Buxton Opera House: A fine example of Frank Matcham theatre design, the Buxton Opera House offers a year-round programme of entertainment. It hosts a variety of performances, including opera, ballet, theatre, and concerts. Make sure to check the schedule during your stay!
Explore Poole’s Cavern: We love a visit to Poole’s Cavern. This magnificent Carboniferous limestone cavern is one of the finest show caves in England, featuring many extraordinary formations sculpted over millions of years. Mary, Queen of Scots, is said to have explored it! A visit to Poole’s Cavern offers the chance to explore a vast limestone cave system. Guided tours lead you through its fascinating formations, providing insights into its geological history.
Explore Buxton on foot: Buxton is the perfect base if you enjoy walking. We enjoy the Limestone Way and Monsal Trail, which are excellent walking routes through hills, woodlands, and historic landmarks. Buxton is ideal for gentle strolls or more challenging hikes!
