Cosy Central Buxton Terraced House

Location was great. Rooms, especially bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. Had no issues whatsoever. Host was great in that I received several emails explaining access and facilities.

There are a series of welcome packs and I requested the ‘beer’ one. Instead, got biscuits. Was also informed that a list of local restaurants etc would be left for us but this was nowhere to be seen. That said, I’m an old hand at finding the best so in the end was of no major importance. The premises more than made up for any shortcomings.

The location is okay although there is very limited parking anywhere close. Be prepared to hunt for a parking space and it may be several streets away.

We opted for the 'Butches pack' as a welcome basket. They looked like part of a pack of supermarket sausage and bacon with a couple of eggs. These were not sealed or dated or nice looking. As we did not know who had handled the meat, where it was from, or indeed how old it was, we chose not to eat it. There is a local butchers just around the corned where we purchased our own bacon, sausage etc. Such a shame that the 'butchers pack' did not come from a local butcher. When we arrived, the fireplace did not work. We reported this to the host, and in fairness, someone came to the property to fix it. The concern came when the fix was done by jabbing a kitchen knife into the workings until the lighting mechanism worked. With no Co2 or smoke sensor in the room and the lack of any gas certificate, we chose to play safe and didn't use it. We were frustrated that the gas combi boiler has been installed in the lounge since the photos were taken. Having the boiler constantly clicking on and off while trying to relax was an unwelcome distraction. The property was lacking up to date smoke and Co2 sensors, there was no fire blanket or fire extinguisher. I thought these were compulsory for a rental? While the big TV was modern and had all platforms available, the trailing leads were a poor addition to the scene. This was the same in the bedroom, giving a feeling that the property had been rushed and poorly thought through. The property was described as 'refurbished' which I think is is a bit on an overstatement. The property has been updated but is far from a refurbishment. The kitchen had been altered but then roughly screwed back together which again made the finish look rushed. The bathroom had been updated but with no attention to the finish. The shower had good pressure but was not re-tiled. New shower valve but an old rust mirror. Again, updated, not refurbished.

It was very clean and extremely comfortable. Great location next to the centre of Buxton. Well decorated with all essentials included. The big TVs are a massive bonus and a beautiful welcome pack on arrival made us feel very welcome.

The property was warm clean and cosy, had everything you would need for self catering. Beds were very comfy and the bathroom was lovely. Excellent location and on street parking wasn’t a problem. Excellent communication right from the start. Lovely welcome pack of breakfast products and had the bonus of an early check in!

Nothing

Great value and comfortable house, spacious and all modern conveniences available.

Wish we could have stayed longer!

Excellent location, easy access arrangements, comfy clean and high spec facilities. Well thought out kitchen and equipment and a great bathroom. Great communication with hosts via WhatsApp and email. The house was larger than we expected and we appreciated the terrace outside space.

Some noise from delivery vans in the early morning.

The house was beautifully presented, clean and has everything needed. Location was great, with some lovely pubs and restaurants within a 5 minute walk, and really easy to get in to the center. The TV, Wi-Fi and all facilities were great. Would definitely rebook.

Nothing, if I was to be really picky, it could have done with a tea towel.
