Beeley

Tucked on the southern edge of the Chatsworth Estate, Beeley is a quiet, mellow stone village with deep ties to the Duke of Devonshire. Originally built to house Chatsworth Estate workers, it remains largely unspoilt—its winding lanes, graceful church, and traditional cottages offering timeless charm.

Guests can enjoy lunch or dinner at The Beeley Inn (formerly Devonshire Arms), or relax with tea and art at the Old Smithy Café & Gallery, complete with a secret garden. Scenic walks lead to Beeley Moor, Hell Bank Plantation, and the Bronze Age barrow Hob Hurst’s House, with panoramic views and peaceful trails. Just a short riverside stroll from Chatsworth, Beeley offers a tranquil base for exploring the Chatsworth Estate—without the crowds.
