For the duration of our visit to the Peak District, we've been staying in the town of Buxton at the Old Manse Guesthouse, where we enjoyed a wonderful stay. Buxton is a spa town in the middle of the Peak District. Helen chose this town to stay because of its location.
It's a beautiful town, with many local pubs and restaurants, but also a nice park nearby to the Buxton Opera House and Pavillion.
We spent a while taking in the sights, watching geese fight over each other, dogs playing in the stream, all the usual stuff. It was busy enough to be interesting, but quiet enough not to be crowded.
