Buxton
Regenerating Britain's spa heritage
Buxton is a spa town, blending views of natural landscapes and historic architecture. Columns, crescents, domes and manicured parks are all the hallmarks of a gentrified lifestyle spanning the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian eras of the country’s history. Now is the time to take a spa break in this jewel of British spa towns as it enters a renaissance following a multi-million-pound renovation of the newest member of the family, Buxton Crescent. This is the town’s only wellness hotel, with its programme of spa breaks for couples, holidays or a spa day for two.
High up on the edge of England’s Peak District, Buxton is the gateway to this area of outstanding natural beauty, contrasting rolling farmland, forests and deep valleys with high stony plateaus. This is perfect terrain for outdoor enthusiasts who like to hike, bike and horse ride.
