  • "Lovely cottage."

    Beautifully decorated and comfy beds. Hot tub checked each morning by the owners. Gift of a home made cream tea was a lovely touch. Would definitely stay again if back in the area.

  • "What a wonderful place to stay."

    Right from the start we were made to feel really welcome with great communication from Jane and Steve. We could not fault the cottage, so cosy we felt at home immediately. A lovely cream tea and some wine awaited us on arrival, very much enjoyed after a long journey. Everything was spotless. We had a very relaxing holiday, lots of walking and evenings relaxing in the hot tub. Thankyou for a wonderful stay and hope to return in the future.

  • "I stayed here with my fiancée and this cottage is so beautiful."

    The property is extremely well looked after and is in immaculate condition. It feels very homely and cosy - we could not have wished for anything better. Every room is very spacious; the living room, kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms! The hot tub is covered, so despite the cold and rainy weather, we used it everyday and always looked forward to it after a long day out. This was our favourite! It is in a perfect location with everything that you need within a short driving or walking distance including a pub, supermarkets, hiking locations or the town! To top it all off, we were welcomed with some scones and cream tea which tasted amazing and a bottle of wine too. Both a small detail but a thoughtful one too. We both loved staying here and it's a shame we had to leave so soon but we definitely recommend this property without a doubt and hopefully can stay here again soon!

  • "We have had a lovely time at Shenton Terrace."

    The kitchen was well equipped. It was nice to find homemade scones and cream with a pot of tea ready to make up when we arrived and also a bottle of wine for the night. The log fire was great after a long wet walk in the peaks (after we had a well earned soak in the hot tub to ease our sore muscles) Our bed was sooo comfortable we slept like logs. I couldn't fault anything. Jane and Steve were on hand if we needed anything (like extra logs for the fire) but they respected our privacy. It was a lovely cosy house. We had a great time and will definitely return.

  • "Absolutely wonderful little place to stay!"

    Or not so little.. Sleeps 7 easily. Beds are so comfortable and the bedding is luscious! Everything you need and more for cooking in the kitchen and it was very clean in every room. The hot tub was a bonus and we made lots of use of it every single day. Nearby supermarkets and shops for anything you need and a local pub on the same road if you fancy a pint. We would definitely book again. The owners are lovely, they keep in touch whenever you need them, and will attend the property if needed. Didn't even know if and when they'd been to check the water in the hottub, they were so discreet. Came home feeling so refreshed! And the homemade scones on arrival were absolutely gorgeous! I cannot compliment this place enough! It is wonderful. Thank you Jane and Steve for making our holiday perfect xx

    Hi Lel, Ah we love that you had a wonderful time at the cottage and made the most of the hot tub. We're so pleased that your stay was perfect which is just what we want for guests. Thanks for staying at the cottage. Look after yourselves Thanks Jane & Steve Property Owner

  • "Absolutely beautiful house and location."

    The welcoming scones and drinks were much appreciated. Everything you need for a relaxing break was available. The hot-tub was a bonus and got well used! The bedroom lay-out was spot-on for our family and the addition of stair- gates to prevent our 4 legged friend from exploring too much was a nice touch. It was great that Jane kept in contact during the stay to ensure that everything was ok. The house was ideally situated for access to Buxton and the peak-district. The area was quiet and had a great night's sleep. The only downside is that we only had 2 days but hopefully will be back in the near future.

    Hi Colin, Thank you so much for the feedback. We love that you liked the cottage and the great location. The hot tub certainly is great isn't it. Thanks for staying at the cottage. We hope to see you again on the future. Take care Jane & Steve Property Owner

    We arrived to a welcome cream tea plus a bottle of wine .. and doggy treats. The cottage was absolutely lovely and spotless throughout. It had everything we could’ve possibly needed and much more. The bathrooms were modern and fresh. Beds super comfy The hot tub was a real treat and just what we needed for our relaxing break. Jane checked In to see if we needed anything . The local pub Is just steps away if you fancy an evening tipple and is dog friendly . There are a fair few takeaways nearby too (mostly pick up only) but the cottage has every facility you’ll need if you fancy cooking. Morrisons is only a 5 minute drive away All in all a fantastic choice of cottage and I’m sure we will return . The front bedroom overlooks the golf course . A lovely view Thanks Jane & Steve x

    Hi Jayne, Were so pleased that you and your family had a nice break and liked the cottage. It was lovely having you all at the cottage. Thank you for looking after the cottage, you were perfect guests. It certainly is a great location isn't it being close to town but on the outskirts where it's quieter.

About the location

BUXTON

Tideswell 7 miles; Bakewell 12 miles; Matlock 21 miles.

It was the constant 28 degrees centigrade of the bubbling blue waters of Buxton's eight thermal springs that originally attracted the Romans to the town. However it was during the 18th and 19th centuries, under the patronage of successive Dukes of Devonshire, that the Palladian splendour of the Buxton of today was designed and built - including the magnificent semi-circular Crescent, The Great Stable, Hall Bank, The Square, The Pavilion Gardens and The Opera House. Today visitors continue to enjoy these magnificent buildings and gardens, as well as the Opera House's full programme and annual festivals of music and arts. There is good walking close by with rugged peaks to the north and gentle hills and dales to the south and a number of pretty towns and villages are dotted throughout including Bakewell, Ashford-in-the-Water, Castleton and Edale. The stunning properties of Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are within easy driving distance and must be seen while visiting this area. A great base for exploring the Peak District.
