Help restore the Cascade

The Grade I listed Cascade is one of Chatsworth's best-loved features and was created for the 1st Duke in 1696. After centuries of wear, the Cascade is in need of essential restoration. Help the Chatsworth House Trust charity turn it back on by sponsoring a stone or making a donation.

Farmyard & playground

Reopens 15 March.

The farmyard has been a favourite day out for children since 1973. There are so many farmyard friends to meet, from Eugenie the rare breed Suffolk Punch mare to Itsy and Bitsy the pygmy goats. 

Take the secret tunnel to the playground for exciting woodland adventures, with tall towers to climb, slides, swings, sand and water play.
