Callow Hall

Callow Hall is a splendid Victorian country home standing in 35 acres of private gardens. As soon as you step inside, the life of the nineteenth century comes alive with a beautiful main staircase, stunning fireplaces and portraits of Queen Victoria's family in the dining room. All of this is genuine, left over from the Gather family who lived here from 1848. The hotel's 16 extremely comfortable bedrooms are named after the servants – Dorothy, Philip, Anthony – who worked for the family. The excellent kitchen is renowned for its handmade sausages and award-winning black-pudding and the hotel filters and carbonates its own drinking water. Ideal for walkers and diners - and lovers of the Peak District. If you're thinking of visiting Chatsworth be sure to ask at reception, as the hotel can provide tickets at a considerably reduced price.
