Breadsall Priory, Grade II listed building in Breadsall, Derbyshire, England.
The former Augustinian priory spans multiple architectural periods, with its foundation stone visible in the cellars beneath the current structure point.
Founded in 1201 by the Curzon family, the priory underwent dissolution in 1536 and transformed into a private residence before becoming a country house hotel.
The property maintains a connection to scientific history as the final residence of Erasmus Darwin, grandfather of Charles Darwin, who lived there until 1802.
Located two kilometers north of Breadsall village, the hotel contains 112 rooms, two golf courses, a spa complex, and an indoor swimming pool.
A thirteenth-century stone arch remains preserved within the wine cellar, which now houses the Cast Iron Bar and Grill restaurant.
