Today was spent at Chatsworth House – a trip around the house itself followed by several hours walking around the gardens. There probably isn’t much I can say to do justice to the opulence of the house and gardens and if you are visiting this CC site then undoubtedly Chatsworth House will be on the “must see” list.
The tour of the house and grounds costs about £20 per person but we had a 2-for-1 offer after Moe’s visits to Hatfield House and Sue got a £5 discount courtesy of us staying at the Caravan Club site – worth remembering.
A few pictures of the house and gardens.

The maze at Chatsworth
In the distance here you can see the maze which is bounded by Yew hedges
The violin painting
If you look carefully in this picture you can see a violin hanging from a door knob. However, the knob is real but the violin is actually a painting.
