Chatsworth House
Nestled in the heart of the Peak District National Park, Chatsworth House is one of the ‘Treasure Houses’ of England.

The 105 acre garden is particularly impressive with giant water features, sculptures, a maze, and stunning views of the house and park.

The estate also holds a range of events throughout the year, including a Christmas market for you to peruse in November.
