The Roseleigh is well situated in the heart of Buxton amongst the hills of the Peak District National Park.

The Duke of Devonshire originally owned the land that the Roseleigh was built on in 1870.

The Roseleigh lies on a quiet pedestrian walk (shown opposite) and overlooks the lake set in the 23 acre Pavilion Gardens.
