Sightseeing
The iconic Chatsworth House is a 5 minute drive from our home.
Chatsworth is the seat of the Duke of Devonshire and has been home to the Cavendish family since 1549. The family still live here, but all money from ticket sales goes directly to the Chatsworth House Trust which is dedicated to the long term preservation of this wonderful piece of history.
Chatsworth is also the place to go for all die hard Jane Austin fans. Pemberley is still very much alive!
