Wellwood Lodge Buxton

Wellwood Lodge is a lovely large Victorian house in the historic spa town of Buxton in Derbyshire. This spacious house is ideally situated for experiencing the varied landscape of the Peak District National Park, where rugged moors and pretty dales offer an abundance of activities from walking, cycling, climbing, caving and fishing.
If you're after a cultural break, the house is convenient to the town's famous sights - Buxton boasts lovely parks and gardens, a wonderful theatre, a stunning opera house, shopping arcades and ancient buildings, pubs and restaurants. The house is only a mile from Buxton Country Park, where the high wire theme park Go Ape provides pulse-raising fun -

Stay at Wellwood Lodge and you will be able to explore beautiful countryside by walking from your door - a scenic wetlands eco area and woodland are just around the corner, while for a longer hike, you can access heather moorland by traversing the many picturesque footpaths. The bustling market towns of Bakewell and Ashbourne are a short, scenic drive away as are many National Trust properties.  Chatsworth, the seat of the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, and Haddon Hall, a fine example of Elizabethan architecture, are amongst England's finest non affiliated properties.

Buxton is home to a selection of festivals including a Jazz festival in February and the Opera season during July and August. The town is vibrant with contemporary culture, while retaining a grace and serenity from a bygone era. If you are looking for activity and culture on your holiday, this fantastic house in the Peak District is a great choice, at any time of the year. Trains and buses depart from the town to all the many and varied attractions of the Peak district making Wellwood lodge the ideal holiday location even if you dont arrive by car, and if you do you can let the train take the strain!

Wellwood lodge is a handsome detached family home over 3 floors, situated in an attractive residential area of Buxton. The approach from the road is up an inclined path (no steps) with auto lighting and hand rail.Outside is a terraced style garden with raised patio on the roof of the garage - a lovely spot that catches the morning sun and where there is a fantastic view of the Dome and Georgian Crescent, Grin Low, and in the distance views of Solomon's Temple Folly.
This pet-friendly house is a wonderful place to stay for a large family celebration or reunion, or a group of friends on a holiday full of activity and culture. The house is an ideal base to explore the delights of the Peak District throughout the year. We offer a ‘home from home’ experience for guests to come to escape, relax and unwind.
