    The Hunting Tower stands on the escarpment 400 feet (122 m) above Chatsworth House, on the edge of Stand Wood. Complete with old cannons facing the gorgeous view, it's a great place to stop for a moment. The tower was completed around 1582 for Bess of Hardwick, ancestress of the Dukes of Devonshire. These days, you can rent the Hunting Tower for overnight stays.
