Amenities.
Great location and well laid out living space. The bed was very comfortable. A small cupboard for dry foods would have been good to have and a shelf on the wall at the side of the basin. Ideal for one or two people. A robe and toiletries would have been a good touch, otherwise it was it was very good.

100% recommend!
Perfect place for a getaway in Buxton, it was very clean and tidy and has everything you need. It’s also located in a perfect place as your right next to all of the restaurants/bars/shops etc.
The apartment building is lovely (looks very grand) and the apartment itself is stunning.
Lots of parking very close by (less than a 5 minute walk away) and only £5 a day.
Also spoke with the property managers on the phone and they were more than helpful.
Couldn’t ask for much more.Would 100% recommend.
