Perched on the outskirts of Buxton, Derbyshire, lies this fabulous, three-storey holiday home, Cheshire View. With access to a private hot tub and enclosed garden, and great positioning to nearby attractions, this contemporary property is perfect for large families and makes a wonderful base for exploring Buxton and the surrounding Peak District National Park.
Inside, be charmed by the tastefully-decorated, contemporary interior, the quality of which is on full display in the well-appointed, amply-equipped kitchen/diner, where a huge dining island takes centre stage, serving as the social hub of the house where the whole group can prepare and enjoy tasty meals whilst catching up on the day's events. If you'd prefer an alfresco affair, set the patio furniture and make use of your outdoor space, before enjoying an indulgent soak in the hot tub.
When the evening grows darker, retreat to one of four well-presented bedrooms, one of which features a plush king-size bed and accompanying en-suite shower room, the perfect spot to relax and rejuvenate as the night draws to a close. If you fancy getting to know the local area, make the short trip to the nearby Old Club House for a pint, or perhaps book a table at The Tasting Rooms if a break from cooking is required one evening.
On your way out of Buxton, be sure to spend time at the Chee Dale riverside trail on your journey to the village of Tideswell, where you can refill your energy stores at The Merchant's Yard once you're finished hiking. For those history enthusiasts of the group, the market town of Bakewell is a worthwhile destination, home to the landmark spot of Bakewell Bridge, as well as the surrounding Haddon Hall and Chatsworth House.
Further afield is Matlock, where you can spend a whole day enjoying attractions such as Lumsdale Waterfall, the Peak District Mining Museum, and the Heights of Abraham cable car cavern tours. All of this and more awaits during a stay at Cheshire View.
