Great for family get-togethers The house is enormous and easily caters for 3 or 4 families. Living room in particular is huge and dining room big enough to accommodate us all. Exceedingly well equipped kitchen, The bedrooms are all fantastic in terms of size and comfort, 4 bathrooms. Great fun in games room. Good location. Lots of parking. Nature reserve nearby good for dog-walks. Close to town centre.

Wellwood lodge welcomes you to an impressive and beautifully appointed house of very generous proportions
Dogs may come for £30 each per stay, a stunning nature reserve awaits just a 10 minutes walk, or if preferred the ancient woodland that leads up to Corbar Cross 5 minutes along the road.
Delighted to be awarded a certificate of excellence by Trip Advisor Wellwood Lodge is on the edge of glorious countryside yet just ten minutes walk to the bars, shops and stunning architecture and parks of Buxton!

Considerable recent updating gives visitors a superior self-catering experience in the beautiful spa town of Buxton and the stunning Peak District.

Buxton's beauty is a popular choice for weddings, the house is in walking distance of the Palace Hotel, Old Hall Hotel, Crescent Hotel, Devonshire Dome and Pavilion Gardens, all popular reception venues. We have had brides leave from our door for their big day, families delighted to have a venue where they can relax informally together without the constraints of a hotel.
As a resident since childhood I am an enthusiast of my beautiful town, the specialist shops within the Cavendish arcade the former spa bathing area, the extensive choice of places to sample the local gastronomic delights, the wonderful Opera house and the stunning Pooles cavern which is rated as England's finest show cavern are just a few of the highlights. The beautifully kept 23 acre Pavilion gardens is a wonderful place for all ages to enjoy a fun filled time.

Amazing House - Great Location!!
We stayed in the house for a week with 6 kids aged 10 months to 12 years. The house itself was amazing with loads of space and activities for the whole family. The house is situated in a perfect location, close enough to walk into the town centre to take advantage of local parks, shops and bars/restaurants as well as being in the heart of the Peak District. For large families looking for a great place to get away together, I would strongly recommend this house.

Wonderful cosy country stay
I visited with a group of girlfriends for my sisters birthday. We had everything we needed for cooking big meals and staying so warm and cosy during our winter stay! We found a path up into the Peaks right behind the house and it’s a short walk into town for visiting the cute pubs! Susan was very responsive and helpful throughout!

60th Birthday celebration
Perfect accommodation for friends and family, ages from 4 to 64. Children enjoyed the playroom. The dining room table was big enough to accommodate us all. The kitchen had plenty of mugs and plates etc and everywhere was immaculately clean. Would definitely recommend, thank you Angela

Buxton family weekend
Well equipped house within walking distance (steep walk back) of Buxton. Garden was a bit smaller than anticpated and garden furniture could do with a lick of paint.. House was well equipped especially the kitchen, could do with another bathroom but that can't be helped! All in all we had a great time! Some rather strict rules and were surprised to have to strip all beds and empty bedroom bins on checking out as we would have thought that was the cleaner's job but it did not affect our enjoyment of catching up with family.

The house is enormous and easily caters for 3 or 4 families (we were 4 families with kids). Living room in particular is huge and dining room big enough to accommodate us all. Several bathrooms. Basement games room. Good location. Lots of parking. Nature reserve nearby good for dog-walks. Easy access to countryside. We didn't explore Buxton but it looks very pleasant. Would definitely go again.

Perfect spot for a large group!
We had a fantastic time in Buxton at Susan’s place. We used all of the bedrooms, which are comfortable and spacious, the living areas and kitchen are huge, so we had lots of space to hang out and socialise. Having three/four bathrooms also helped! The kitchen is extremely well equipped for a group visit too. Buxton is a gorgeous town and only a ten minute walk away, as is the train station. I’d highly recommend Susan’s place to anyone wanting to organise a gathering for friends and/or family!

Lovely House
The house was lovely and was well equipped. It was quite a difficult climb to the house for me with C. O. P. D and I think this should be mentioned in the description
