A great place stay in the middle of the Peak District. Perfect to get to both Kinder Scout and Alton towers. Very comfortable and a nice pub around the corner (The Duke).

We had a lovely stay. The property was clean, comfortable and spacious for the five of us. The location is excellent, with Buxton just a 20 minute walk away or a short drive. Attraction and hiking/trail routes are also very close. Plenty of on street parking. I would certainly recommend.
