Walkable area

This area is easy to get around.
Visit the beautiful Derbyshire Peak District staying in our 17th century holiday cottage located in the old Victorian spa town of Buxton.
The highest town in England, a Market Town in the centre of the Derbyshire Peak District which makes it a great place to use as a base for walking, cycling or simply taking in the views and visiting the local villages and towns.
In fact visitors from across the world have been attracted to the warm Buxton spring waters since Roman times.

The space
Until the early 1900s it had been the home of the local blacksmith for several hundred years – now converted to provide comfortable accommodation that still retains much of its old period charm:
– large oak beam fireplace (not for use)
– thick limestone walls with deep recessed windows
– walls that slope outwards downstairs and inwards upstairs and hardly a “right angle” in the house to be found!

Even though the cottage is several hundred years old it now has all the comforts of modern living.

Fully fitted kitchen, comfortable lounge and recently a totally refurbished bathroom with all new fittings. Warm central heating for the colder months and the thick walls that make it naturally cooler inside during the warmer months.

There is a large private parking area for up to 2 cars with a garden area with seating to sit out and enjoy a drink and meals in the garden room.

It's a short drive from the cottage to start enjoying the beautiful Derbyshire Peak District ....... and just a short walk from the cottage to enjoy some great Buxton pubs, shops and restaurants.

Guest access
Guests have access to the whole house, car park, garden and garden room.

Other things to note
The cottage is fitted with all the facilities you need for a warm comfortable stay.
The kitchen has all the utensils for home cooking although there are many great eating out places within a few minutes walk.
We supply all linen, soaps, hand towels for kitchen and bathroom (but please bring your own bath towels). The bathroom has recently been refitted with brand new walk in shower cubicle, basin and toilet.
The road outside the cottage is low traffic and for access only and we have off-road private parking for up to 2 cars.

Smithys Cottage has been our holiday let since 2002. Initially a 4 star with English Tourist Board for many years then TripAdvisor 5 star and awarded a Certificate of Excellence. The last few years we have eased off a bit due to my hip op just relying on our regular returning guests. Now fully fit this is our first year on AirBnB and I'm looking forward to welcoming many new guests to our holiday cottage in Buxton.
