Come and spend a few days at the Holly Cottage and do not miss the chance to visit the surrounding areas, such as:
The Chatsworth Estate: a large country house in Chatsworth, Derbyshire, England 3½ miles northeast of Bakewell (GB Grid SK260700). It is the seat of the Dukes of Devonshire, and has been home to their family, the Cavendish family, since Bess of Hardwick settled at Chatsworth in 1549.
Chatsworth's history dates back to Anglo-Saxon times. Chetel was deposed after the Norman Conquest and Chatsworth ceased to be a large estate, until the 15th century when it was acquired by the Leche family who owned property nearby.
Plenty of history but not only... Chatsworth House appeared in the 2005 film adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. It represented Pemberley, Mr Darcy's home. The house itself is named in the novel as one of the estates Elizabeth Bennet visits before arriving at Pemberley. The house was also used in The Duchess (2008), and The Wolfman (2010).
A very inspiring place just one mile away from Holly Cottage, do not hesitate, book your room and spend some very nice holidays!
