About the hotel
The Cavendish Hotel, originally the famous Peacock, is located on the Chatsworth Country House Estate in the heart of the Peak District.
The hotel is steeped in history, with perfect views and peaceful surroundings. Throughout the hotel you will find open fires, oak beams, antique furnishings, fresh flowers and friendly staff. And yet this oasis is located just 15 minutes from Sheffield and 20 minutes off the M1.
Originally the famous Peacock Inn, the building was the property of the Duke of Rutland and served the turnpike between industrial Chesterfield and the spa town of Buxton.
It became the Duke of Devonshire's property around 1830 and in the early 1970s was rebuilt as the Cavendish by Chatsworth Estate. The original character was preserved and the Duchess of Devonshire selected the decor and furnishings, some of which came from Chatsworth House itself.
