A clean, warm and tidy accommodation which is convenient for walking down into Buxton centre.
We stayed just one night for an Opera House theatre show and it was great for that.
On street parking nearby was easy.
Had a lovely 2 night stay at Compton guesthouse. Clean and comfortable very large room with ensuite bathroom (including a bathtub) lovely victorian building. Didnt see any staff during our stay but this was not an issue as given check in instructions via text message. Short walk to centre with numerous bars and restraunts. Will definitely stay again.
Well presented within walking distance of town centre, pub's and restaurants. Anne/Dave 😆(building manager) was lovely, she worked hard to keep the place so clean and nothing was a problem if you asked 😉 stairs were challenging to the top floor but we managed and wi-fi was a bit sketchy (none at all in our room) hopefully it will be sorted by the owner. All in all a lovely place to stay ♥️
Great little guest house , easy to check in Nice room comfy bed and tea coffee provided .

Room was adequate but not as good as photos. Dark room, no light over tea/coffee area and needs updating throughout. However for the money what more could we expect?
I rented a room here for a family of three, and it was convenient to where we were going and places to eat. It's in a lovely neighborhood.
Overall, it was affordable and clean. Communication with the manager is quick and convenient, mostly through email. There's an onsite caretaker that we saw in the mornings. I highly recommend it for an affordable stay.
Really enjoyed stay, beds were comfy and room warm when radiators on. Convenient for walking into town or driving to local villages or towns for walks. Good value for money.
Staff member Anne was delightful , friendly and helpful . Very good ambassador for Compton house .
Room was good , beds just a bit too high for getting in and out . ( for us smaller people ) bathroom shower was not draining away so could not have shower on second morning !
Not good !!!
Tried to pull the core out to clean it but it was stuck in the plug hole !!
Just a note - mirrors in room and bathroom are all too high .
Good all round property and room with a good standard of decor .
As I say Anne was the only person we saw and she was lovely to chat to about the area and where to go and see . Lovely lady .
An excellent overnight stop for Buxton. Walking distance from the town and opera house. Self check in worked fine. No staff on site and no breakfast available but great value for money for the quality of the room.
Comfortable room in easy walking distance from Buxton town centre and Buxton country park. A few pubs within minutes. Simple to check-in, although we were expecting to check in at 12 and were sent away for an hour (not a problem for us!) Easy enough to find roadside parking. Tea & coffee facilities and shower gel/shampoo a welcome touch.
Mysteriously awoken by a fire alarm on our final morning which was quickly shut off… but otherwise very quiet making for a peaceful stay.
Compton Guest House was comfortable and the check-in process was straight forward. The property is dog friendly in a pleasant area, and parking would normally be fine I suspect. I stayed there during a weekend of snow, ice and rain, so my experience of the parking situation and local area was mixed. Lots of information about places to visit and options for food. The room I was in lacked glasses and cutlery, and the socket for the kettle was awkward, but otherwise had everything you would need for a nice stay with a comfy bed and a clean and tidy ensuite bathroom. I would certainly stay here again and recommend it for a pleasant break in Buxton.
