A Day in Pride & Prejudice: Visiting Pemberley! (aka Chatsworth House)

Hello everyone and welcome to a new video!

Once I had decided to make the Pemberley dress, I knew it would be an absolute dream to wear it at Chatsworth, the location used in the Pride & Prejudice (2005) film as Pemberley. I've been a fan of Austen ever since I could read in English (in fact, Pride and Prejudice was one of the first few books I read in English!), and the 2005 adaptation is my favourite (controversial I know!) so this felt so full circle for me, and I wanted to share it with you!

Apologies for the shakiness of some of the clips, I'm still working on not being awkward filming in public so I will do better in the future! If you'd like to see more Elizabeth Bennet content, I've made two of the dresses from the film:

Lastly, a tremendous thank you to the bestest of friends, Emily and Jess, for this wonderful weekend and their endless patience in filming!

So fun! I only wish you'd included the Darcy bust in the shop - the sign saying "please do not kiss the statue" is one of my favourite bits 😂

Thank you for including us in your visit! An incredible house and grounds! My favorite was the room with all the marble statues ❤😮 and the narrow hallway ❤. Incredible paintings, furniture, draperies, etc. Glad your dress got to visit! 🥰

What a beautiful house! I love the HUGE murals. I cannot even imagine what it felt like to live there.

My mother’s school were housed in Chatsworth for the last few years of her school life, during world war 2. She would have loved to have seen this - it would have brought back many memories.

Hiw lucky you were with the weather. When I went you could hardly see your hand in front of your face! Typical Derbyshire/North Midlands weather!

I love seeing Chatsworth through fresh eyes, its only 30 mins away from me and we went regularly as kids so I never go as an adult as its boring to me... so I forget that it is actually quite impressive
