Moreover, the venue brings a city like atmosphere to this market town. I like the Opera house and the wide variety of different operas, theaters, concerts, musicals, and comedies they offer.

The Palace Hotel is a very grand building in a commanding position close to the railway station and…read moretown centre. It exudes Victorian grandeur but this grandeur is slightly faded. Much has obviously been done to keep the old place in a good state. The decorations are in a good condition and there are nice carpets throughout. It is beautiful inside as well as outside. The bedroom was very good, not luxurious but comfortable, clean, and had all the expected amenities The small bathroom was excellent and the shower worked perfectly. Some things let the place down. I had to wait 15 minutes to check in, in a long queue. The Wi-Fi is free only in the reception and restaurant area, but in the bedrooms you have to pay quite a lot for Wi-Fi. The lift works but is slow and has eccentricities in operation that you need to learn. The hotel boasts a good swimming pool with a tiny sauna and steam room attached, but this too is not free to hotel guests unless booked as an extra in advance. Breakfast was self-service and plentiful but the coffee was from a machine. Unfortunately although the restaurant wasn't at all full things like juice, brown bread, or cooked breakfast ingredients kept running out and staff could not keep up with replenishment. In fairness I got a good deal to stay there and I would stay there again, but a bit more management attention to detail wouldn't go amiss.

Buxton Museum & Art Gallery is a smallish venue in the town centre, with modest exhibits of…read morehistorical objects and paintings (on the upper floor) which also offers a glimpse into the history of Buxton. There are some genuine artefacts on display, most obviously the "Buxton Mermaid" (see photo) - in the 19th century, people like the infamous P.T. Barnum displayed such objects as genuine "mummified mermaids"! Unfortunately, it's all downhill from there: the mostly modern paintings on the upper floor are insignificant, made by local artists - but they do add to the "community feel" of the place, and as suggested by the many posters and leaflets lying around, the museum plays an important part in the communal activities of the town. The entry is free, and you're allowed to take photos. So if you're close by, why not drop in for a half hour on a rainy day.

Some great displays and amazing art work, especially the art work from local schools.read more

They brought props that matched our theme, and provided prints of great quality. We bought the unlimited prints package, and it was very much worth it. They arrived early at the venue to set up, and stayed until the very end. Everyone who attended left saying that the photobooth was a lot of fun and we would definitely hire Jan and Ronaldo again!

This 2 star rating is a real shame but I feel short changed after coming here…read more The entrance looks so exciting and brilliant and it looks like you have the course to yourselves. How wrong could we be! You end queing endlessly for holes, which aren't particularly hard or exciting. Its less adventure course and more boring course than anything. We didn't come with a voucher, after finding one afterwards which annoyed me as I forked out £16 to play some boring golf and queue. Make the course harder/bigger/ more interesting and less queuing please! Unfortunately wouldn't come here again:(

This is actually really good fun…read more Recently opened in The Trafford Centre, Paradise Island is an indoor crazy golf centre! Featuring two different courses, this is a fun place to take the kids but also good fun for a staff night out as we found out when we wandered along to it for a fun evening! It's not dead expensive (£7 per adult, £5 per child) and you get a discount if you're in a group. The courses are set out really well, some of the holes are quite challenging and it can get quite embarrassing when you're on your 15th shot and there's a queue of six other groups behind you...was that just me?! Oh right...! The novelty theme is very well played out throughout the entire place and the decor is fantastic. It's the sort of place you can kinda of go to with anyone, dads would love it, kids love it, it's a good place to go for a date (no really it is!) and we had a right laugh when I went with work! It's funny to see how competitive men get whilst playing...hehehe!
