Location:

The Roman Spa town of Buxton famous for its mineral and spring water sits amongst some of the most beautiful countryside in England, being on the edge of the Peak District National Park whilst being accessible to the cities of Manchester, Sheffield and Derby.

The annual Gilbert & Sullivan festival in Buxton's Edwardian Opera House attracts visitors from across the world while tens of thousands visit the town to sample its mineral and spring water, to stroll through the Victorian Pavilion Gardens and enjoy the surrounding Peak District National Park countryside. There is a direct train link from Buxton into Stockport and Manchester while Manchester Airport is within 25 miles of the town.
