Thank you Linda for the great stay at the Maiden. It is always so beautifully decorated and so close to the beach. The bedrooms are great and the mattresses very comfortable. We love to relax and watch a little TV after a full day on the beach, however, the couch is not comfortable enough to make that enjoyable. It is pretty and looks great in the room- but just not comfortable. We enjoyed our time in Buxton! Thanks again!

Perfect relaxation spot

Short walk to the beach and far enough from commercial area to not be bothered. Check out conners for groceries and uncle eddy for ice cream and putt putt. Public beach access a mile away is perfect for a night time fire.
