Home

Welcome to Brin's Cottage website (formerly Buxton Ranger Cottage).



In late 2006 the cottage was renamed Brin's Cottage in honour of Marjorie Brindley (Brin) who found the cottage and was the driving force behind it's purchase, restoration and opening for the benefit of the Buxton Rangers.

On this website you can find out how to book, the activities around the cottage and the history of the cottage.

History

This is a 17th century dwelling, owned by Girlguiding Buxton Districts.

The cottage was bought in 1961 by the Buxton Rangers, the money to purchase the property was raised from a grant from the King George Fund and the County Youth Service plus regular money raising activities, such as Coffee mornings, jumble Sales and with the help of donations from kind friends, paid for the materials used in repairs and decorations.
