About
Just a stroll away from the splendour of Chatsworth House, The Devonshire Arms at Pilsley is a village Inn with charm by the pint.
The small, pretty village of Pilsley is filled with charming sandstone cottages, with many of its houses being owned by the Chatsworth Estate.
The comfortable, traditionally-styled country Inn rooms each feature stylish, understated décor and an intimate atmosphere. All boast a double bed and duck down duvets.
The Head Chef sources local ingredients, most of which come from the Chatsworth Estate. Drinks include a curated selection of local cask ales, including the famous Chatsworth Gold. Featuring food straight from the land and an atmosphere you won’t find anywhere else, this is the kind of place you wish you could call your local. There’s even a place to rest your head if you want to stay the night.
So why not let it be your local, for a little while at least? Explore the land, have dinner and a nightcap by the fire, and do it all again tomorrow.
