The Chatsworth House Trust
All visitor admission income goes directly to the Chatsworth House Trust, a registered charity dedicated to the long-term protection, enhancement and sharing of Chatsworth house, its collections and landscape, with and for visitors.
The Duke of Devonshire and his family live at Chatsworth, paying rent to the Charity for their rooms. One of the major projects the Trust has helped to fund is The Masterplan, the colossal £14 million restoration project being undertaken to allow visitors to experience both the inside and outside of Chatsworth as you've never seen it before.
This work and many other essential projects can only happen thanks to the continuing support of visitors and annual members as well as the efforts of the Trust.
