Buxton is a spa and market town in the centre of the Derbyshire Peak District. Ideal for walkers any time of year, it is surrounded by peaks and dales, moors and beautiful rambling countryside.
Explore Buxton's parks and gardens in the evenings after
a hard day's walking. Visit the local pubs and restaurants (without the worry of driving) - or help yourself to the free Buxton Spring Water at St.Annes Well.
