Cavendish Hotel

About Cavendish Hotel

The Cavendish is operated by Peak Leisure Management on behalf of Chatsworth Trustees. A closely-knit team is dedicated to looking after guests as individuals, not simply room numbers.

The Hotel exudes a quiet elegance; overlooking the Chatsworth Estate, an extensive collection of original artwork, antiques, charming furnishings and decor all maintained in a continuous programme of improvements and contributing to that elusive dimension - tranquility. Add to that the view from the window of your bedroom - no traffic, just fields - and you begin to understand the lure of the Cavendish.

The Gallery Restaurant

Reflecting an emphasis on fresh and exciting flavours, meals are stylishly presented in surroundings which include some interesting fine art. The menu emphasizes the use of fresh ingredients, often locally sourced, whilst seeking to create an unexpected twist here and there.

The Garden Room

Relaxed, informal service and stunning views of the Chatsworth Estate through extensively glazed surroundings. Food served from 10am to 10pm with a menu offering lighter style dishes, from open sandwiches to fuller meals to suit your requirements.

The Kitchen Table

The Kitchen Table is exactly what it suggests - a special table for two guests in the Hotel kitchen. Diners here are able to see for themselves what truly takes place behind the scenes, amid all the bustle of a busy night's service, while watching their own meal being prepared and chatting with the Chef.
