There are stunning ornamental gardens and world-famous Georgian and Victorian architecture providing an impressive backdrop to a rich and vibrant range of music, theatre and festivals.  The town is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the region and there are a wealth of independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants alongside the attractions of Poole’s Cavern, Buxton Opera House and The Crescent Spa.
