English Tourism Council 4 Stars
 | Netherdale, a delightful ten - bedroomed house built in 1897 and set in a pleasant residential road close to Poole's Cavern and Country Park. Netherdale is a totally "Non - Smoking" but licensed premises. Denise and Frank will ensure that your stay is homely and all your comforts are catered for. |
| Our bedrooms all have colour TV, tea and coffee making facilities. Eight bedrooms are en suite and centrally heated of course. Two bedrooms are single occupancy and have their own sink with convenient toilet and shower but not within the room. There are two superb family rooms and three rooms can accommodate twin requirements. |
| We often cater for large parties of people including cricket teams and reunions. The Netherdale is a good choice for this type of get together as there is a large guest lounge for evening soirées to "replay" the days events or simply relax with a beverage and enjoy the ambience |
| Our breakfasts are renowned for giving you an excellent start for the day. All breakfasts have availability of grapefruit, cereal and lots of warm tea, coffee and toast. |
The off - road parking enables you to take full advantage of leaving your car and strolling to the restaurant area which is only a stones throw away. There is plenty of variety including English, Chinese, Indian, Italian or Spanish - but perhaps you would prefer the Olde English Pub and grub! (There is plenty of variety here).
Buxton and the surrounding area offers a wealth of places to walk, houses and gardens to visit and all sorts of caves and wildlife attractions. Evening entertainment at the Opera House now has a "year round" calendar of attractions and an excellent guide is available from the Tourist Information Centre or we would be pleased to help you with your enquiries. |
