One night while looking through the availabilty I noticed Chatsworth was free. As this is rare I decided to book the weekend and hope the snow kept away. How lucky was we. When we arrived at 1pm there was a queue of units waiting to check in. The wardens greeted us advising us of the entrance and the little bridge. We was checked in very quick and soon was all set up and ready for the weekend. We went for a walk in the grounds of Chatsworth, saw all the deer. It has lots of walks round, should you decide you can visit the house. We didnt this visit on this occasion. Our walk took us into Baslow where we decided to call into the Wheatsheef for a drink. Lovely coal fire, lovely food , good prices so we decided to stay for a meal. We eventually headed back to our caravan as it was just getting dusk. The next morning we decided to take a walk to Bakewell, this is a lovely walk through the grounds taking in the lovely scenery, still with a covering of snow. After a walk round Bakewell, we caught the bus back that takes you into the grounds of Chatsworth House and walked back to the site. Regrettably Sunday came all too soon when we had to leave. The weather was perfect, cold but beautiful blue skys. The wardens are very pleasant, and have the procedure booking in well organised to prevent too much conjestion. They had 70 arrivals that date, and the site was full. I would recommend the site if you are lucky to be able to get on.
