Charles Cotton Hotel, Buxton

This pub has an hotel feel to it but once you get to the room at the back it is a lot better this room is quite big and fairly comfortable. There were Four real ales on the bar i had a drink of Slaters Bitter which was very nice the other beers were Whim Hartington bitter/IPA and a beer from Salamander brewery. Not a bad pub to have a few drinks in.

Nice corner pub. Dark wood interior with bare floorboards. Real ale on sale, but cant remember what it was. Lunch served, though not sure about evening meals. Not very helpful am I!

Having visited Hartington repeatedly for the best part of a very long time I could not remember ever having a good pint in this place - not one. That is until today 07/06/09. Once a place to be avoided the transformation under the new management has been miraculous. The local real ales (Leatherbritches & Whim) were supurb as too was the food. I'm reliably informed the accommodation has improved too. It really does make a nice change on having to report such a massive improvement. Would I visit again - yes, most certainly. Small car park at rear of the hotel & street parking available in the village square. Pretty village, good dairy shop near to pub. Up from one star for the location & old times sake to three stars.
