There is no better location for visiting the Stately Homes of England. In fact it really is Stately Home country. The Old Hall Hotel was actually built by the husband of the notorious 'Bess of Hardwick' who built both Hardwick Hall and Chatsworth. In fact, Chatsworth is just across a couple of hills. (We measure distances in hills around here!).

We list a few of the wondrous treasure houses with some castles thrown in. All of which are within easy driving distance.
