After the rainy visit to Haddon Hall, we were pleased to discover that is always sunny (or almost sunny) at Chatsworth House.
You might find the place strangely familiar. Chatsworth has played the role of Pemberly, Mr Darcy’s house, in different adaptations of Pride and Prejudice. It might have actually been the original inspiration for Pemberly, as Jane Austen wrote the novel while visiting the area.
The house and the park that surround it host a large art collection, and I was pleased to find, among the ancient statues, one of Barry Flanagan’s Hares. In the most appropriate setting.
