A Day at Chatsworth
On the second day of our trip to Derbyshire, we visited Chatsworth House, with afternoon tea booked for later in the day.
We had a few hours to explore the gardens first, which gave me plenty of time to take photographs. The cascade was one of my favourite features, with the water flowing down the long steps and catching the light. We also wandered through the maze. It took us a while to find our way to the middle, although climbing the hill afterwards gave us a much better idea of where we'd gone wrong!
Inside the house, the grand staircase was one of the first things to catch my eye. There was so much to look at throughout the rooms, from the architecture and decorations to the artwork.
After exploring the house and gardens, it was time for afternoon tea. We chose our teas and were treated to sandwiches, little tartlets, scones and a selection of cakes. Everything was lovely, and it was a rather nice way to finish the day.
