Chatsworth Estate in Derbyshire Unveils Family-Friendly Hotel
Perched atop a rolling hillside, Chatsworth House has been a stately home since 1536. With its limestone edifice and beautifully manicured parkland, it's no wonder the estate attracts over 600,000 visitors annually.
The latest addition to the Chatsworth Escapes portfolio is The Hide hotel, which opened in October last year. This new family-friendly accommodation offers an affordable alternative to pricier options, with doubles starting at £80 a night and bunk rooms sleeping two adults and two children from £125.
Guests can enjoy the hotel's 'campfire-inspired menu designed for sharing and cooked over an open flame' or dine in one of its two pubs, the Beeley Inn and the Pilsley Inn. For those who prefer more leisurely pursuits, The Hide offers a dedicated play corner with books, toys and a miniature kitchen.
To complement its hospitality offerings, Chatsworth Estate has also expanded its services to include a fitness club, which boasts a pool, gym, tennis courts and various treatments. Guests can purchase day passes for access.
The estate's 14,000 hectares of parkland and moorland provide ample opportunities for outdoor pursuits, including walking and cycling. A circular walk from the hotel takes guests across fields to Chatsworth House.
For those looking for a taste of history, private tours of Chatsworth House are available, led by knowledgeable guides such as Martin who regaled us with fascinating facts about 17 generations of Cavendish family members who lived here.

maybe its good for families tho? theres not many options for affordable vacation spots with kids 
. But seriously, who wouldn't want a campfire-inspired dinner and a mini play corner for the kids? Sounds like The Hide is trying to bring some down-to-earth charm to Chatsworth Estate 
. I mean, £80 a night is steep for what feels like just a glorified campsite. And don't even get me started on the "campfire-inspired menu" – it's just a fancy way of saying they're trying to charge people more for food because their hotel is fancy 
! £80 a night for a doubles is crazy cheap considering it's got all these sick facilities like an open flame menu and a play corner with toys and books 
my fave part tho has gotta be the outdoor pursuits - 14k hectares of parkland? that's like, endless possibilities for hikes and cycles 
i've already been thinking of planning a family trip there this year 
. And omg, a play corner with toys and books? Genius! My kids would love that

Who needs a fancy hotel when you can just have a campfire and some s'mores in the woods?
