Make the most of your visit

To experience the many highlights of Chatsworth Estate, we’ve put together our five favourite things to see and do during your visit.

  1. Take your time exploring over 25 rooms, including the magnificent Painted Hall, regal State Rooms, restored Sketch Galleries and atmospheric Sculpture Gallery.
  2. Discover a garden where history and natural beauty meet. Lose yourself in 105 acres, with modern and historic waterways, a Victorian rock garden, arboretum and kitchen and cutting garden.
  3. The farmyard and adventure playground offer the perfect chance for children to meet animals, learn about farming, and burn off any pent-up energy in the peaceful, sheltered woodland surroundings. While offering a great place to pause and reflect on the day.
  4. Look out for seasonal events, exhibitions, and activities, held throughout the year. For a small additional cost, you can combine, yoga classes, plant fairs, festivals, workshops, clubs and tours with your entry.
  5. Food lovers are well catered for (pardon the pun). There are several cafés and restaurants serving a range of locally sourced dishes, homemade cakes, and refreshments. Head for the Chatsworth farm shop, offering high-quality produce, artisan goods, and unique gifts. Plan your day at Chatsworth House
