Chatsworth House is a stately home in Derbyshire, England, located in the Peak District National Park. It is the seat of the Duke of Devonshire and has been the home of the Cavendish family since the 16th century. The current house was built between 1687 and 1707 by Sir William Cavendish and his wife Lady Elizabeth Cavendish. It was later remodeled by the 4th Duke of Devonshire in the late 18th century in a neoclassical style by architect James Paine.

The house contains a notable collection of art, including works by Old Masters such as Rembrandt, Veronese, and Poussin. The collection also includes contemporary pieces, including works by Lucian Freud and David Hockney. The house is also known for its extensive gardens, which cover over 100 acres and include a maze, water features, and a rock garden.

Chatsworth House has been used as a filming location for several movies and TV series, including Pride and Prejudice, The Duchess, and Peaky Blinders. The house is open to the public and visitors can tour the house and gardens, as well as enjoy activities such as horse riding and carriage rides. Additionally, the estate includes several shops and restaurants, as well as a farm shop selling local produce.
