Guest rooms and suites all come with a verdant view of the estate and put a contemporary riff on its rich heritage…
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A footpath leads directly from the garden terrace through meadows and kissing gates to reach Chatsworth House in twenty minutes.
The rooms
Sash windows frame sweeping valley views, paired with locally woven Derbyshire wools, handmade glazed ceramic lamps, and freestanding roll-top baths.
Restaurant
The Garden Room
Wicker chairs and brick floors fill this sunlit conservatory, looking straight out across lawns toward estate parkland.
Interiors maestra Nicola Harding conceived the look alongside Laura Burlington, the estate’s duchess-in-waiting.
At the table
The Gallery serves produce sourced across the Chatsworth Estate, and the duck-egg blue bar pours local gins.
How it began
Originally a historic coaching inn for turnpike travelers, the stone building was acquired by the Devonshire family in 1830.
