I went there at Xmas once n accidently walked into the family's Xmas dinner. Servants everywhere carrying platters... They just ignored me. Prob thought I was the gardener...

[@katrinashaw3174]

Christmas there is like a magical wonderland! Well worth a visit!

[@claireaustick8898]

Hi guys I live in Sheffield so this is on my doorstep. When I go I walk my dogs around the grounds and it's beautiful. You can't take dogs inside but with those grounds who needs to. I've been inside many times and you never see everything. I'm so,so blessed to have such beauty all around me. If you do make it over here then please please please visit Derbyshire. I love your passion for all things British thanks guys ❤

[@karolynwainwright8000]

Travel companies run coach trips to Chatsworth, many thousands of people visit every year especially at Christmas

[@janolaful]

​@@mykota2417 it's beautiful there at Christmas I hope they invited you to join them lol 😊

[@michaelnolan6951]

I am from NZ, currently live in England (Salford) Chatsworth was the first stately home I ever visited and even walking through the grounds you can feel the effect of centuries of planned landscaping and gardening. Inside was literally mindblowing. I was vey quickly overwhelmed by the amount of historical detritus collected by a family who has lived here for centuries. On back staircase, dimly lit by a bare bulb, I found a 500 year old Tintoretto painting - not behind glass or velvet rope. There were hundreds of visitors but it was so big I was alone most of the time. At one point I sat down in an empty corridor to rest. It was only after i got up that I realised I had been sitting on King George IIIs coronation throne. (Why was it here?) Oh, this bedroom was where the Duke of. Wellington slept? Oh, this is a 5000 year old Egyptian memory stele? Coming from a country where the very oldest buildings were barely 150 years old, Chatsworth was like a dream.

[@garyskinner2422]

Nicely worded, I'm a tad confused why you used the word detritus though, this means debris or waste haha

[@damienyoung751]

Thumbs up for Salford.. but you came here to Salford from NZ?.. wowzers lol😂

[@stephenhickman304]

That’s EXACTLY the sense I feel when there - it’s just stunning. As for value…….? it’s priceless

[@wendyfield7708]

Michael Nolan. The coronation THRONE would not be at Chatsworth. It is very ancient and use only for the actual crowning of the monarch. It is more likely to be another chair used at George III’s Coronation…

[@michaelnolan6951]

​@@wendyfield7708I am just remembering the label on the wall, soI could be wrong. My impression was that it was called the Coronation Throne but I cannot swear to it.

[@nadeansimmons226]

The great thing about the current duke is the fact he keeps adding to the art collection and is not afraid of buying modern works just like his ancestors did.

[@enkiofsumer8374]

The old Duke and Duchess were an amazing couple. They spoke to everyone the same, no heirs and graces about them at all. The 'new' Duke seems the same. Such a down to earth family, considering their background.

[@misselizabethclaire7765]

Chatsworth at Christmas is absolutely unreal. They do a different theme every year and it's so elaborate ✨

[@kellyedwards6343]

I took my Mum for a tour around the house in 1998. She had always wanted to see Chatsworth. I'm glad I did, as we unfortunately lost her to Cancer in 2020. It was spectacular

[@garymaxfield6904]

I’m happy that this place is literally 15 minutes drive away from my home. We’re so lucky.

[@davestubbs7274]

Great reaction 👍 A few years ago on my late mothers 80th birthday we took her to Chatsworth for the day, she was in a wheelchair. We met up with my nephew who worked there and he introduced my mother to the Duke and duchess of Devonshire who wished her happy birthday and had a nice chat. she never forgot that day 🙂

[@christineharding4190]

I'm a Londoner but Derbyshire is my favourite county. Beautiful countryside, gorgeous houses and picturesque villages and towns.

[@valeriedavidson2785]

Try Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds. The villages are very beautiful - and the scenery. Much greener and warmer than Derbyshire. The stone walls are a golden colour.

[@FukkaPukkaPie]

Head to Buxton if you like Derbyshire.

[@saralindley]

I once took my mum to Chatsworth, while we were walking round the gardens she told me to watch for someone coming and then proceeded to bend down and steal some seed pods from a pretty flowering plant in the border.😂 When I told her off she said "if the Duke wants to come and steal some of the seed pods from my garden he's more than welcome. 😂 Every spring she would nudge me and tell me her Chatsworth plant was flowering. The house is truly stunning up close, and I really do hope you both get to visit one day.

[@williamjohnson4117]

This story rings a bell with me as my mother used to tell me how HER mother would visit statly homes and when she got home they would discover that her handbag was full of cuttings that she had taken without anyone noticing - and they always grew!

[@nadeansimmons226]

Both Chatsworth and Castle Howard were our go to weekend places to visit as a family when we were growing up. They are so beautiful and absolutely fascinating

[@enkiofsumer8374]

I think that was pretty much everyone's weekend, of my generation, visit Matlock Bath, Bakewell and then have a picnic in Chatsworth Park, at the side of the river Derwent (where they tested the 'bouncing bomb' at the Derwent dam, for the attack on the dams of the Ruhr). I did it with my kids too, and can't wait to do it with my Granddaughter as.

[@walkfarm1]

It is now £30 to tour Castle Howard and just £18 for a ticket to the grounds only. Just saying.

[@pooch12341]

When my mum was alive. I drove her to chatsworth every time.i went back home.What ever season. I think I enjoyed it as much as her❤

[@joansargent5604]

I went to Bible College just nearby and used to walk in the grounds. In the early 80’s 4 of us were walking in the grounds and we came across 2 ladies with dogs we stopped to pass the time of day, imagine our surprise to realise it was the Duchess of Devonshire (Debo one of the Mitford girls) and the Queen, we were blown away, the Queen used to visit occasionally. We were truly blessed.

[@marycarver1542]

They are well visited. At Christmas many of them dress in Christmas decorations etc. and that is a special trip to see those.

[@stevenbeech7310]

If you like it like that you should see it when they decorate for Christmas. Its absolutely stunning

[@leohickey4953]

When I lived in Sheffield, Chatsworth was just a short drive away and I always found it to be a popular place for a visit during the warm months. Local people appreciate the opportunity to eat a picnic on the giant lawns and don't abuse the Duke's and Duchess's hospitality by leaving litter. Farm animals wander around the estate, checking out the visitors and posing for pictures, and there is a herd of deer running around the estate too. Of course the house itself is spectacular as this video shows.

[@paulbromley6687]

I live Twenty minutes drive from Chatsworth house. It has so much going for it.

[@MaxineSmith027]

Its actually lovely to see our Stately Homes and villages through fresh eyes. When I was a child, we visited all the local stately homes with the school on Environmental Studies, which in turn led to me visiting as many as I could, introducing my children to them as a parent. Wherever I go in the country, I try to visit a fresh place. The villages are different because we see them all the time, either driving through or small villages becoming incorporated into towns and cities, although they still keep their charm. Lovely video yet again ladies, thank you 😊

[@LesleyDruce]

It's 30 minutes from where I live so I know it very well. Chatsworth is magnificent, she didn't show many of the rooms, there are so many more that are open for the public. In the warm weather the cascade is filled with children, (of all ages!) all paddling and playing, and the thing which will make it perfect for you two lovely ladies, is that dogs are welcome into the gardens. Yes at Christmas each year the house is decorated beautifully, it's a different theme each year. You would love it!

[@exthereon6916]

If your a Jane Austin fan you absolutely HAVE to watch the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. It’s 6 hours or so long. But it’s unbelievably good. It’s worth whatever you would have to pay to watch it. Honestly, it’s one of the best things the BBC ever did.

[@dequ-1]

This. It is the definitive TV/Film adaptation of P&P. I have watched this adaptation maybe a dozen times over the years. An unlikely "all time favourite" TV series for a 60 year old man. Whatever it costs, get a copy to watch, worth every cent, I promise.

[@veronikabartram2092]

The BBC version of Pride and Prejudice is the best ever and a must see

[@NeilusNihilus]

Absolutely stunning.

[@ruthb7131]

Derbyshire born and bred, used to live 20 mins away. Awesome house, amazing gardens

[@mehitabel6564]

The other wonderful thing about Britain's stately homes is that apart from being open for visitors, they also stage all sorts of outdoor public events, especially during the summer. It is so special to visit on a long summer evening with a picnic and watch a concert. Close to us is Berkeley Castle, one of the oldest continually inhabited castles in the country. We saw a play of Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' in the wooded moat, on the 420'th anniversary of the play's creation. We only found out afterwards that in fact the play had been written especially for the wedding of one of the Berkeley family, and was first shown in the exact spot where we saw it 420 years later. Pretty cool.

[@paulicini]

lived in Lincolnshire for many year but Derbyshire is my home county. We still visit Chatsworth most years, they have a wonderful country fair, ( the terrier racing is something else) and the Christmas decorations are superb. All their events are so well organised. The estate also have a farm shop which stocks the highest quality local produce. Another Derbyshire house nearby is Haddon Hall, the most perfectly preserved example of a manor house from the middle ages, helped by being unoccupied for 200 years.

[@Hairdooer]

Dear Natalia and Debbie, I had the honour of visiting this rural Masterpiece a few years ago and was left stunned and yearning to return. I can remember telling myself that it’s perfection in every way. Every direction you look in no matter which part of this house and garden your stood you see beauty like no other. It’s manicured to perfection. If you two wonderful girls never see another Manor House make sure you don’t miss this one. The Lsdt Dutchess of Devonshire was an incredible Art collector and it shows. Please go and see this, you will never regret or forget this jewel in the Derbyshire countryside. Much love Richard Bishop Worcester uk x

[@danielferguson3784]

Girls. We have so many such houses in the UK that it is hard to miss them. Here it's as if one Estate lies next to another, each with it's own great house at the core. This is besides the castles, churches, monastic ruins everywhere. We are so blessed. Such places are regularly busy with visitors, whenever they are open. At the moment Castle Howard, & others are beginning their Christmas 🎄 displays, which are always spectacular.

[@peterjackson4763]

I went to Chatsworth earlier this year for the first time since I was a child. It was smaller than I remembered, but just as beautiful.

[@ladykaycey]

Natasha, a fellow Jane Austin fan here. I've watched just about every series and film of Pride and Prejudice. I really enjoyed the Keira Knightley film but for me the absolute winner is the 1990s BBC series starring Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth. Every details wonderful ❤

[@kitkatbrabson2794]

At Christmas, they decorate the inside of the house to match the age of Chatsworth House, they also have a Christmas Market 🎄. It is very beautiful 😍

[@tim1812h]

What a delightful tour that was. Strange to see Natasha stuck for words. When you visit UK next year a visit to Chatsworth seems to be a must. Then you can write that romance novel Natasha. 😘I can imagine Natasha riding up to the house in period costume and the love of her life, Debbie, waiting on the steps also in period costume. Maybe I am just an old romantic at heart. If you get the chance you have to watch Christmas at Chatsworth. Love, hugs and prayers from Sussex, UK.

[@w0033944]

Shades of "Gentleman Jack".

[@tim1812h]

I hadn't thought of that but maybe 🤔@@w0033944 Perhaps I should write that novel? 🤔Or at least a short story?

[@marcustomlinson-me3wk]

i live in Nottingham and Chatsworth is a short car ride away and i visited quite few years ago and it is spectacular house and place

[@valeriekill6270]

I live in London, I am 61 years old and ashamed to say the only stately home I have ever been in is Hampton Court Palace. It is so beautiful and the gardens are stunning 😊

[@lyndarichardson4744]

Glad you enjoyed the video Natasha & Debbie. If you've got a DVD player that is universal, PLEASE buy the DVD of the 1995 , BBC's 6 part adaptation of Pride & Prejudice. Colin Firth plays Mr, Darcy, and Jennifer Erle , a Canadian actress, play Elizabeth. It's just sublime ❤

[@nicolad8822]

Jennifer Ehle is American with an English mother the actress Rosemary Harris. Born Winston Salem North Carolina.

[@CechKris]

I can recommend this version too. Colin Firth is the best Mr. Darcy.

[@juliarabbitts1595]

If you want to see more if Chatsworth find Death Comes to Pemberley which was filmed at Chatsworth

[@cjscitcat]

That version I watched with mum when it came out. We loved it and when mum died it was almost like therapy to rewatch. When I'm low and miss her I still binge watch it. My son laughs at how I know the lines so precisely. Visits to Chatsworth also help me cope with mums loss, she always seems close to me there.

[@lynnedyer8714]

It’s a stunning house and magical at Christmas. I enjoy watching your reactions and appreciation of our beautiful country. Thanks girls

[@susanashcroft2674]

I know I commented in your video on Eyam that I went on a school trip to Chatsworth House then onto Eyam. I was around 7 or 8 years old at the time and fell in love with Chatsworth and remember clearly the step fountain and all the beautiful grounds as well as the house. I've still got my black and white photos I took of the day some 50 years ago, including a horse and it's foal that were grazing in the grounds. I am surprised she didn't show the Violin and Bow painting which is known as a Trompe l'oeil, an illusion created to make the violin look like it is hanging from the door that was painted around 1723. It took me a few years or more before I returned to visit Chatsworth and was still as in love with the place. If you ever get the chance to go Natasha and Debbie please go, it truly is a beautiful place to visit and explore.

[@paulmurphy5648]

My dad was a semi-professional kids entertainer and did the Chatsworth House staff Christmas Party for years. Up to the age of about 10, I was his "stooge" and remember a few great Christmas days there. I know I met the Duke and Duchess (they gave me a present even though Dad did not work for them) but I do not really remember them. My dad said they were lovely, down to earth people with no poncy airs and graces. I live about 20 miles from Chatsworth and spend some happy summers days walking round the grounds and house in my own little "Christmas Party" dream world remembering my dad and the fun we had in that great house. Allegedly, the present Duchess spends a lot of time in the gardens "pottering about", I wonder how many of us have had a pleasant chat with a female gardener without realising we were actually talking to Her Grace!!!

[@russelltaylor7779]

It is so difficult to choose which is the best! Blenheim palace is my favourite as it was the birth place of Winston Churchill. You can go to smaller stately homes which have so much history.

[@maggiemay6625]

Ladies I go to chatsworth once a year I could never get tired of this place it’s magical I hope one day you ladies get to visit and who knows I may bump into you as always 10/10 for your content presented with a smile❤️🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@pash47]

I have been to Chatsworth many times, often for the Game Fair that was kindly hosted by the Duke and Duchess. Only on one occasion have i had the good fortune to visit the inside and and gardens - So memorable and makes you proud to be British.

[@StevenHall-r1w]

Hi Natasha & Debbie just watched your reaction to Chatsworth house which my wife and I visited for the first time in August and as you surmise it blows you away, and yes it dose have winter activities including a light walk in the garden. Also while on holiday in Cambridge this year we visited the only American war cemetery in the UK, worth checking out. It has final resting place of over 3000 American heroes and a memorial wall with the names of over 2000 missing in action personnel including great band leader Glen Miller. P.S. love the show and am subscribed, also one for you Debbie I am ex R.A.F. having served 22 years, going back to your Red Flag video I was at 4 red flags as ground crew between 1992 & 2000. Keep up the great videos. Your fan Steven Hall North Yorkshire.

[@sandrabeaumont9161]

I've visited Chatsworth and have to say it is a most beautiful place. Never went in the house sadly. They have many events at Chatsworth which is why I was there.

[@anthonyz2707]

the looks of sheer disbelief on your faces is brilliant Natasha and Debbie... you can see that your minds are blown at the stunning sights

[@heulwenhughes4110]

I went to Chatsworth House a few years ago. There were so many "wow" and "omg" moments. Stunningly beautiful house and grounds. Will have to make plans to go again x

[@conjigalo]

Ha! I saw my old house in this video. My family is an old derbyshire family. I prefer Haddon hall. It’s not as splendid but is a literal time capsule that was boarded up in the 1500’s and is perfectly preserved. See if you can find any vids of that. 👍

[@manbate05]

Oh Girls, you kill me!! Discovered you some months ago and i am hooked on your show, brilliant! Anyway, Chatsworth, just over an hour away from me, if you get the chance take a look at Chatsworth at Christmas, we visit every year, the Christmas market, stables, illuminated gardens, house all decorated. And if your liking the country houses and have time take a look at Castle Howard, stunning. Love, Love Love your show, i suppose we do take the history for granted when you live around it for so long and it is literally everywhere! regards, Adrian UK

[@amandajb2024]

Last time I was in the UK I visited Chatsworth at Christmas time. There was a HUGE sparkly Christmas tree in almost every room - amazing! 🎄🎄🎄

[@KeithJackson-g8w]

We live 6 miles from Chatsworth and go regularly, to walk round the gardens. Most recently we were there 2 days ago, when we took our granddaughter. The house and gardens are decorated for Christmas…with winter wonderland walks with the trees lit up. It is just as beautiful as the video.

[@FrankMatthews-he5vo]

Loved the video. My grandmother was Scottish, and my grandfather was English, I was born and live in Northern Ireland. I know how you felt watching the video. Keep up the great work.

[@catastrophic009]

One thing that was not mentioned is the painted violin & bow hanging on a door known as the Trompe l'oeil (French for 'deceive the eye')...It is so realistic & actually looks like a real violin ! You have to see that with your own eyes to appreciate it !

[@shmuelparzal]

Here's a funny tale about my first visit to Chatsworth House: As an autistic child, my grasp of language was worse back then. In about 1971, my parents told us we were going to visit a stately home (the general term for houses like this that are open to the public). In my ten-year-old, autistic mind, I got this mixed up with 'old people's home'. It didn't help that I had recently visited elderly relatives in a place with 'House' in its title. So I thought to myself, 'Why are they making such a big deal about visiting an old people's home?' Are we going to be walking around just looking at old people?' Needless to say, when we got there, my mind was blown away by what Chatsworth House actually turned out to be

[@molliesmomma]

Chatsworth House is so beautiful. I live quite close to it and often walk around the grounds. I’ll be there very soon for the Christmas market. You really need to visit it when the Christmas decorations are up, it’s absolutely stunning.

[@mikecook6318]

We live approx 45 minutes from Chatsworth, we usually visit a couple of times each year. Our next visit is this coming Monday as Christmas at Chatsworth starts tomorrow, the rooms in the house have been decorated for Christmas, in addition to this next to the house is the Christmas market, you also have the Chatsworth farm and once the sunsets the garden become alive as it is all illuminated, it is a magical day out and would thoroughly recommend, never get tired of the house and grounds.

[@stevegrundy9817]

From a Yorkshire man Yep it a stunning house .I drive pass it every day to get to work .

[@kapa7436]

i live in Derbyshire and have visited Chatsworth house many times, every summer the gardens will be full of familys enjoying picnics and swimming. i met the duke and dutchess when i was a kid on a school field trip which was pretty cool. i'm much closer to Hardwick Hall which is beautiful as its owned by the same family and have a drive through regularly as im 5 minutes away

[@andrewbairstow8600]

We used to go here for school trips. We ignored the house and just ran up and down the grass and played with the water. 😊

[@jenniferfox301]

When my kids were small we were having a picnic at the side of the Cascade when an older gentleman wearing Speedos walked up the steps of the Cascade. He got to the top and sat down in the pool, causing some muttering as kids were playing there. Whispers abounded til we heard the kids were OK, the late Duke was just escaping the hot weather and wanted to play with the families enjoying his property. You guys need to visit/stay in Derbyshire and go to the Blue John mines which aren't too far from Chatsworth which has some beautiful vases and ornaments made from this rare form of fluorite. There are loads of shops in the neighbouring villages which sell Blue John in jewellery and maybe some small ornaments but it's not cheap. Love these vids highlighting our glorious landscapes and estates, houses etc. Thanks, girls ❤❤❤❤❤

[@vanessacare2615]

[@radarstag]

Glad you reacted to this Video, I suggested it ages ago on one of your previous ones. I also mentioned the Kennedy Link. I live in Nottinghamshire but have been to Chatsworth quite a few times, and Bess of Hardwick who is mentioned lived and Built another Hall in Derbyshire where she gets the name she's called by Hardwick Hall. Whi h is less than an hours walk away from my home just over the Notts/Derbyshire border. Hardwick goes by the Motto Hardwick Hall more glass than Wall due to its very large amount of windows, and it saved as a POW camp in the 2nd WW and also the first training site of the Parachute regiment until they moved to their full time barracks a few months later, this is commemorated with a small plaque on the Car Park Wall. Lastly there was also a couple of Spitfires stationed there at the back off the Hall during WW2. Loved watching your reaction to this video as I do most of them hopefully when you come over you can get to see it in person and maybe squeeze Hardwick in as well.

I went here years ago, when I was 15. The year prior a bunch of us students from England had a school exchange to the states, and on this particular year, it was the American students turn to stay with us in our country. One of the arranged trips that our school had planned was to take us to Chatsworth, to show the Americans a “typical English country manor” type house. It was the first and only time I’ve been personally too. The American students were all commenting on how grand it was and how “English” it was etc. but then that all soon changed to typical 15/16 yr old talk when we went from room to room. We would fight (only in banter) about which bedroom would be ours. Which room would be best to have a big party in, even down to imagining where the DJ booth would be placed etc! But although we had wild, teenage imaginations, it didn’t take away from the fact of how impressive the house is. It’s stunning. And a lot of the American students said that out of all the trips we went on, Chatsworth was their favourite place they had visited

[@danboi7971]

I'm from Derbyshire and we go to Chatsworth house often, we go every year for Bonfire night and for Christmas each year, it is gorgeous but sometimes i have to admit, you forget how lucky you are to have all of this beauty and history on your doorstep.

The City of Sheffield and the Market Towns , Chesterfield to the East, Bakewell immediately to the south and another 5 miles or so to Matlock and the Heights of Abraham. Just a short jog to the West is the village of Castleton with its unique Blue John stones. Eyam the plague village is also very close. This area makes a great base for an English Holiday.

Visited Chatsworth House about 20 years ago, stunning house, landscape. When you drive to the house off the B6012 road your jaw drops when you see the house in its setting. I'm only at 6.55 mins in. I hope the lake behind the house gets a mention, its where the presenter starts her video, gravity feeds the fountains, epic for the time.

Chatsworth is heaving with visitors most weekends during the summer and when they put on special events. Chatsworth farm shop is a favourite of ours. Their restaurant is highly recommended but if you want a cheaper lunch, visit the farm shop deli for a filled cob (bread roll) and a take away cream tea.

Spent many happy hours walking in the Chatsworth House Estate with the Dog. Also visited the House. Also worked at Hardwick Hall owned by Bess of Hardwick who Married a Cavendish. She was a Hand Maiden to Queen Elizabeth 1 .All her previous husbands died Mysteriously as she got Richer each time .😮

My wife took a party of Americans round Chatsworth and, because my in-laws lived locally and we were frquent visitors to the area, she received a nod of recognition from the Dowager Duchess.

I live about half an hour from Chatsworth. We often go for walks on the estate, particularly in winter when it's less busy. However, having lived close by for 64 years, I've only ever been round the house and gardens twice😂 It's always best to avoid at weekends and bank holiday also check to see if any events are going off as you may have to pre book. What she missed is the small farm zoo a must-see with children. Just a couple miles is the Chatsworth farm shop, which sells delicious food, most of which is produced on the estate. There is also a cafe that has to have one the most amazing views of any eatery anywhere

This place is amaxing, the stables are larger than some country houses. Hardwick hall is also a great visit.

I took my grandchildren here for a pre Christmas weekend trip just before the pandemic. I've never seen anything more breathtaking the house was decorated with the most spectacular Christmas trees and lights. My grandchildren still talk about it now. If you can find any videos showing the house decorated for Christmas you would love it. Thank you both so much for your videos x

Yes Have been to Chatsworth house! It’s beautiful, going again just after Christmas to see all the Christmas lights! The Hunting tower is a lovely walk from the car park! You should try & stay there!

[@mickb2009]

The grounds around Chatsworth are stunning without going into the gardens and are freely available to the public , i've had many a picnic overlooking the house and paddling in the small river that flows past it

[@davidlambert2686]

I live 10 mins from Chatsworth, me and my family visit the house and gardens a number of times a year, it's a very calming and relaxing place, there is also a farmyard and some excellent walks. The outside water fountain is actually gravity fed from what I remember 2 lakes at the top. When I was a kid I actually went inside the hunting tower, the views were amazing. Chatsworth also host the International Horse Trials and stage the Chatsworth Country Fair. They also host a fireworks display which are really good. Also the house is decorated with a theme each Christmas, they are planning 3 years in advance and they don't tell you the theme till nearer the time.

You two are absolutely brilliant. Love watching your content. I have visited Chatsworth several times and indeed in my opinion, it is one of the most magical of locations. Derbyshire is one of the most beautiful counties in England.

I have been to Chatsworth many times especially when my children were young, as it has a farm, and great adventure play area. My daughters wedding was held there, and a stage was erected in the grounds for a 70's night by the then Duchess, as she loved the music of that era. The grounds were packed and it ended up with a conga with about 2000 people in it, and my daughter at the head of it in full wedding dress. I now live in Derbyshire about 8 miles away, and ride the Derbyshire Dales on my motorbike. I often arrange my route to ride through the Chatsworth grounds as it has so many good memories. The Christmas Market and the farm shop are well worth a visit too.

I have visited Chatsworth a couple of times. Its around 2 hours from me. Last time we went, my Mum spoke to a guy who was looking after one of the Dining rooms and she commented how lucky he was to work there,, He said he had been there over 25 years and still hasn't seen every room. It really is as spectacular as it looks.

I've visited for Chatsworth at Christmas and going again thus year. It's Magical X.

Hi You two I commented o the Eyam video last week. Chatsworth House is about 6 miles from Eyam .You can Drive through Chatsworth Park and its spectacular . Very often see the Deer and of course the sheep in the Park . Roaming freely grazing in all weathers .There is a Nursery where you can restock your Garden with a cafe . also Chatsworth Farm Shop not cheap but very good produce . When I visit my son in Oxford I drive through the Park and buy goodies to take with me . A visit to the house and gardens is amazing Definitely worth it . One of the amazing things is a violin hung on the back of a door . Its actually a painting but you cant tell. . Its a must to visit when you come . You wont ever forget it

[@angelathornalley5386]

We moved to Derbyshire 6 years ago about 30 mins from Chatsworth House we regularly go and take a picnic and just sit in the grounds and look at the views and the deer and sheep that just roam free
