After an hour tour you will have the opportunity to discover some of the fascinating items kept in the Chatsworth costume collection, with a special trip behind the scenes into the textiles conservation rooms.
End the morning with an illustrated talk from our textile team in The Old Potting Shed, accompanied by tea, coffee and biscuits.
