About the award
Introduced in 1992, this award is the AA’s ultimate accolade for hotels in the UK. It is awarded to hotels that are recognised as being outstanding examples in their particular market.
The Cavendish Hotel, Baslow
Redesigned and relaunched under the new Chatsworth Escapes umbrella, the Cavendish is now marketed in its own right. Set on the spectacular Chatsworth Estate, seat of the Duke of Devonshire, the hotel's recent full refurbishment called on the history and heritage of the estate and family, local craftspeople and sustainable design to transform the interiors. Relaxed and accessible experience and design-led luxury are the order of the day here. Executive chef, Adam Harper holds 3 AA Rosettes for the Gallery Restaurant. The Cavendish is a thoroughly modern operator which prides itself on its approach to sustainability, and has a strong emphasis on treating its guests (and staff) as well as possible.
