Set in the heart of the Peak District, Chatsworth is a truly iconic destination. It is home to a magnificent Grade I listed house and stables, a breathtaking 105-acre garden, and a vast 1,822-acre park. The estate also features a charming farmyard, an adventure playground perfect for families, and one of Europe’s most significant private art collections. Whether you are drawn to rich history, world-class art, or outdoor adventure, Chatsworth offers a unique blend of heritage, culture, and natural beauty, making it an unforgettable experience for every visitor.

Take a stroll around the garden, the result of nearly 500 years of careful cultivation. Over the centuries, the garden has evolved to reflect changing tastes and fashions, yet many of its earliest features remain, including the Canal Pond, the Cascade, and the First Duke’s Greenhouse. The garden was first created in 1555 by Sir William Cavendish and Bess of Hardwick. In the past 100 years, many historic elements have been beautifully restored, while a number of significant new features have also been introduced.

Chatsworth is managed by the registered charity Chatsworth House Trust, which is dedicated to caring for the house, collection, garden, and parkland for everyone to enjoy. Income from visitors directly supports essential conservation work, as well as the programme of exhibitions, events, learning, and community outreach. Every ticket purchased is reinvested into the charity, helping to make all of this possible.

Chatsworth also plays a vital role in the local community as a thriving cultural and educational destination, a nationally important historic landscape, and a working estate committed to environmental responsibility and sustainability.
