The market: If you want to stay close to home it doesn’t get much better than Chatsworth House. Set against the backdrop of the stunning Peak District National Park, amid its own 1,888 acres of parkland, the stunning Grade I listed stately home has 25 vast antique-filled rooms to explore. It has been home to seventeen generations of the Devonshire family, and on its grounds come Christmas, over 100 market stalls pop up selling gifts line its halls. No less than 20,000 baubles have been hung and 48 Christmas trees erected. The market offers live music, which you can watch with a mulled wine or a German beer in hand, or while snacking on a gourmet burger, sausage, hot pork roll or churros. Festive Blighty at its finest.
