Hello, Mr Darcy

It is famous for being the prototype of "Darcy Manor" in the film adapted from Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" (2005). Its real name is "Chatsworth House". It was built in 1552 and is the hereditary residence of the Duke of Devonshire. It is located in the Peak District National Park in northern England, about an hour's drive from Manchester city. During the more than 400 years from the 15th to the 19th century, after the careful design and construction by many famous gardeners, Chatsworth House has become one of the most beautiful estates in the UK and an important part of British cultural heritage. It took the 11th Duke and Duchess 24 years to pay off the inheritance tax. In order to pay for the high cost of managing the estate, they set up a maintenance fund and opened some areas of the estate to support the estate.
