About this property
This well-presented, ground floor flat rests in the delightful Peak District town of Buxton, excellently positioned adjacent to the 18th century Devonshire Dome and The Pavilion Gardens, just a few minutes’ walk into the town. With a beautiful setup of bright and airy spaces combined with thoughtful attention to detail, this charming retreat is perfect for couples seeking a quality break in a wonderful region of England.

Fully relax and unwind into your stay with the help of the accommodating lounge area, complete with a plush, neutrally-coloured sofa and two armchairs to spread yourselves out on. The dining table opens out to fit more chairs under, should you need to and the kitchen is appointed with modern appliances and composite worktops, getting you through your holiday break in style; laminate-wood floors finish the interior in a quality fashion.

Comfortable and cozy, fantastic heating system which was greatly appreciated on a few snowy days in January. Perfectly equipped with all you could need in every room. Located ten minutes walk from town centre and station. Hope to return when the weather is better!
