2. Chatsworth House

This is one of the country's most beloved homes. Originally built for the Duke of Devonshire between 1687 and 1707, it stands today as a reflection of the grand style in which royalty lived. All twenty-six spacious rooms are beautifully appointed with massive furniture, and there's also an art collection that boasts the works of Rembrandt and Gainsborough. Surrounded by 195 acres of gardens that are a combination of cascading water fountains and precisely clipped maze hedges. For the kids who are hard to impress, an adventure playground and farmyard are close by.   (© 10Best)
