| Location & Parking: |
The imposing sandstone building enjoys a peaceful, leafy location overlooking The Serpentine (Park) on one side (right) and the beautifully restored Pavilion Gardens to the front (below). Within the gardens are the Conservatory, Octagon Hall, Spa Water pool and Bandstand plus a lake and miniature railway.
Greenery abounds in all directions and the blend of trees, lawns and flora along with the quietness of the immediate area (broadly residential) combine sublimely to produce a relaxing atmosphere, which can only be fully appreciated first hand. The Opera House, Georgian Crescent, Pump Room and St Ann's Well are all 5 minute or so level walk and form a gateway into the unique town centre that is Buxton. |
