Milford Designs is delighted to announce its latest new outlet at the Rutland Arms Hotel, Bakewell, Derbyshire, joining another recent addition at the Burford House Hotel, Burford, Oxfordshire.
|
The Rutland Arms Hotel, is set in the magnificent town of Bakewell in the heart of the Peak District National Park. The hotel occupies an imposing position in the main square and offers a hint of Georgian elegance and charm. From the reception and fireside areas to some bedrooms with 4 poster beds and a magnificent ballroom, the hotel exudes an historical air. Jane Austen is reputed to have stayed here in 1811 whilst revising Pride and Prejudice (published 1813). Pemberley in the novel is thought by many to be based on nearby Chatsworth whilst Bakewell itself may be the model for Lambton. Other famouse guests at The Rutland Arms have included JMW Turner, Byron, Coleridge and Wordsworth.
The famous Bakewell Pudding originated from a mistake made by a maid working in the kitchens of the Rutland Arms.

Chesapeake Mill is an historic building with an unusual past. The Mill is contructed using timbers salvaged from the USS Chesapeake, captured following a sea battle off Boston, Massachusetts, with HMS Shannon in the war of 1812. After capture, the USS Chesapeake was brought to Portsmouth for inspection and service with the Royal Navy. In 1819 she was sold out of service by the Admiralty and broken up. The timbers were sold and transported to Wickham for use within the construction of a new mill. The dimensions of the mill were and are dependent on the length of the beams from the USS Chesapeake. Evidence of the fierce battle between the two ships can still be seen with shot holes and other marks remaining visible in the timbers.
