Our stay at Kingscroft was truly exceptional. We were warmly welcomed by Wol, and he was extremely attentive throughout. Our room was beautiful, just as you see in the photos. There were so many lovely touches, fresh fruit and plenty of bottled water. The bed was so comfortable, we slept really well. Vicky's breakfast was incredible, the choice was unlike anything we've seen before! It's all pre-ordered and the portions are very generous. The location was great too, just a few minutes to walk to the restaurants, shops and Pavillion Gardens. We will definitely come back again and would highly recommend to anyone headed to the Buxton area. Thank you Wol and Vicky for a fantastic stay.

We were visiting Buxton in order to attend a show at the Opera House and booked to stay for one night at Kingscroft. We found the property was meticulously clean and very homely. The hosts were very personable and more than happy to help with advice about the area. The breakfast was pre-ordered from a comprehensive menu and the food was absolutely delicious and served in very generous portions. The warm summer fruits crumble with yogurt was unexpected but beyond delicious. My wife and I have already decided that we will return to Kingscroft the next time we return to the area.

Absolutely nothing.

Lovely place with incredibly polite and welcoming hosts with charming and thoughtful additions in the room. The bed was very comfy, we slept well and it’s conveniently located.

The advert on booking.com says full english/Irish breakfast which it isn’t as the guesthouse is vegetarian so we had to go elsewhere for breakfast and I wouldn’t have booked this given it was my partners birthday had I seen that advertised on booking.com (still not sure where it’s clear but never mind) but I appreciate it does mention it on the actual hotels own site having since checked

The four of us were welcomed by Vol and given a very informative introduction to staying at Kingscroft. Three of us are vegetarian / vegan so had chosen Kingscroft because of its non-meat breakfast, and the menu was interesting, varied and delicious , all pre-ordered so everyone's choices were fulfilled. The rooms were decorated elaborately, fitting with the Victorian character of the house, our beds were extremely comfortable. The location was excellent, on a quiet street out of the centre of Buxton but only a 10-15 minute walk away.

The room could have been a little warmer, following a week of cold weather and heavy rain, meaning our clothes were already wet when we arrived. However a very thick overblanket was provided which kept us warm at night.

It's a lovely hotel tucked away on a quiet street, close to town and also a short distance from walking trails. The owner, Wol, gave us a very warm welcome and provided lots of information about the area. We stayed in room number 6, up on the top floor. It was a good size, quiet and the bed was very comfortable. We had a great night's sleep. The room was clean and came very well equipped with a great selection of teas, coffees, biscuits, fruit and the added luxury of comfy bathrobes and slippers. The breakfast was fantastic, lots to choose from and generous portions. It really set us up for the day!

Beautiful house in a fantastic location. A very warm and friendly welcome from Wol( Woldymyr) who we saw every time we left/ arrived back at the house and for breakfast each morning. Very spacious well equipped room and extremely comfy four-poster bed. Liked the addition of complimentary fruit and numerous bottles of still/sparkling water. Breakfast is AWESOME! All vegetarian with vegan options. And what options!! Freshly cooked to perfection Portions are huge- Wol does warn you at check-in- ignore him at your peril. We both dialled back the options on day 2 breakfast. Will definitely be returning!!

That I didn’t live there- lol

The breakfasts were huge and plenty to choose from, our only little niggle was I hadn’t realised it was all vegetarian, we did miss the bacon but the veggie sausages were lovely, we chose this guest house because we love the Victorian era and it didn’t dissapoint, Would definitely stay there again, just a short walk to pubs, restraunts and shops. Wal was perfect host, nothing was too much trouble , all good quality , the towels were really thick and fluffy

Nothing not to like

The breakfast menu is incredible and the breakfast itself was one of the best I have ever experienced in a hotel .We had fresh almond croissants with strawberry's, fruit smoothie ,full English (vegetarian ) but the veg sausage was very tasty ,a selection of fresh fruit ,unlimited tea and coffee .A breakfast sitting set us up for the whole day .The front of house chap(i cant remember his name ) could not of been more friendly and helpful .There is nothing bad I can say about this hotel ,we had 2 rooms and both us and our friends enjoyed our stay immensely .

having to have a normal breakfast the morning after stopping there

Breakfast was outstanding. A very comprehensive menu choice and everything prepared and cooked to perfection. Location was very good, and very convenient for walking into the Pavilion Gardens. Vol, the host, was very attentive and made us feel very welcome

We were surprised to find that it was not the policy to clean the rooms each day, nor even to change towels and make up the beds. When I enquired, I was told that this was available on request, but despite the comprehensive briefing when we checked in, this wasn't mentioned. It wasn't a big problem, but it was a surprise.

Breakfast was fantastic. I was unsure at first as only vegetarian breakfast was offered. However, everything was great quality, cooked fresh and portion sizes were very good. 'Wol' who checked us in and looked after us, was great, gave detailed information about the hotel and surrounding area. The hotel was in a nice quiet area, but close to shops, opera house and pavilion, so great location.

We were given an early check in (3:30pm instead of the standard 5pm) however I think this is far too late. I would normally expect to check in around lunchtime. Other hotels we have stayed at in the area offer standard check in at 2pm, but earlier if requested.
