About The Queens Head Hotel
Travellers heading to the Peak District for walking, cycling or fishing will find The Queens Head Hotel a practical place to base themselves, right on Buxton's High Street. It suits guests who want somewhere simple and central rather than a destination in itself, with easy access to the town's own attractions as well as the surrounding countryside.
Rooms are en-suite, with family rooms available for those travelling with children, plus drinks available in room and free WiFi throughout. Breakfast is served on-site, and there's a bar for an evening drink, with 24 hour reception for flexible arrivals and luggage storage handy for guests exploring before or after checkout. Free on-site parking is included, and cycle storage is provided for anyone tackling the local trails.
Beyond the hotel, guests can walk to nearby pubs, bars and restaurants, and the area offers golf and fishing options along with entertainment nearby. It works well as a straightforward stopover for those focused on the Peak District's walking and cycling routes rather than on the hotel itself.
