About Fern Farm Cottages & Buxton
Here at fern farm cottages, we offer two, bedroom cottages called “the old stables” and a lovely mid terrace cottage called” The Frond” the cottages are set in 95 acres of hills and woodland , just 15 minutes’ walk from the town centre of Buxton, the heart of the peak district, with footpaths and equestrian centre on the doorstep.
Opera, pop, literature - whatever takes your fancy when you book a Buxton cottage!
The Buxton Opera House has been beautifully restored and offers a huge variety of entertainment - musicals, pantomimes, drama, comedy and festivals including puppets, opera and literature, Gilbert & Sullivan and the fun-filled Fringe.
Another wonderful structure is Cavendish Arcarde, original site of the hot baths and today home to exclusive shops housed in the old treatment rooms. There are lots of other shops too, as well as a traditional market on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Stroll around the Pavilion Gardens, with its manicured grounds and serpentine paths. Look out for local fairs and exhibitions, the monthly farmers' market or tap those toes at an afternoon tea dance. Step inside the Great Dome, once a magnificent stable block and now the local university centre-piece - it's the largest unsupported dome in the UK, with forty-four pillars!
What else? The Buxton Museum & Art Gallery, Buxton Country Park featuring Go Ape and Poole's Cavern, Buxton Mineral Water and, of course wonderful walking in every direction - everything you could wish for on a Buxton cottage holiday!
