Many appreciate fresh tea or coffee offered throughout the day, with early morning drinks delivered before breakfast. Rooms are characterful and comfortable, though several guests note there’s no in-room kettle or TV, and one mentioned dust on high areas and some worn bathroom fittings. Expect a friendly, characterful B&B focused on hospitality and breakfast.

Just returned from a couple of days staying here. It was absolutely brilliant. David is a very welcoming and friendly host who can't do enough to make your stay pleasant. Rooms are really cool and the breakfast is one of the best - such great produce cooked perfectly. Bang in centre of the village with parking and a lovely cat to greet you at the door! We will be staying again very soon. Thnak you!

Easy parking. An excellent host at hand at all time. Beautiful breakfast. Our room could have done with a good spring clean, although all accessable areas were clean' the curtains over the bed and pole above were dusty. Did not like the worn wooded shower or toilet seat, but base and toilet itself were clean. No TV in room but free wifi. No tea and coffee facilities in room but host very accommodating and would make a cuppa regardless of time.

What a fantastic little B&B this is. So far away from your standard accommodation. The rooms are furnished in a fascinating eclectic style with lots of interesting little touches and spotlessly clean. As for David, the host, we couldnt ask for better service. Very attentive and always on hand to provide fresh tea or coffee, brought to our room whenever we liked. But never intrusive. The breakfast was excellent. All local produce and the English breakfast cooked fresh any way we liked. We will definitely return. Excellent value for money.

It was a joy to stay at Parsons House - close to the village centre, the whole place is unusual and quirky; the owner, David, is kind and attentive, the bed one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in; the bath deep with a plentiful supply of hot water; fresh tea and coffee offered at every opportunity, and delivered to the bedroom door; and the breakfasts absolutely delicious - beautifully cooked and presented with local produce, breakfast trifle, and quince marmalade. I would highly recommend this B&B, and truly hope to go back one day. Many thanks, David :)

What can you say about parsons b&b only one word fantastic. David and his wife are the perfect hosts and nothing wasn’t any trouble. Every morning he would leave us a tray of tea and coffee with a jug of milk and no plastic small pots of milk in site. Rooms are beautiful decorated and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was brilliant and all locally sourced and was superb, the parsons b&b is right in the heart of Hartington so you can park your car and have no need to drive it till you leave. This b&b is a beautiful hidden gem and we will 100% be staying there again. Thank you David for making our stay really special and we will see you soon. Oh and one more thing even the cat was welcoming and very friendly

Wow. We had a lovely weekend staying at Parsons B&B. We had the ‘Grey’ room which was downstairs. The decor is quirky and in keeping with the old house. The bathroom had a lovely deep bath. I think the other room which is upstairs has a shower. Our bed was comfy and the room was lovely and warm. As soon as we arrived we were offered a fresh tea or coffee. No kettle in the room but David, the host was always on hand to make you up a cafetière of coffee. There was a lounge room where you had breakfast The breakfast was so delicious. You can have a starter of cereal, homemade porridge which was the best porridge I’ve ever had. The breakfast trifle was also delicious. Next you got a cooked breakfast using local produce. It was all lovely. The B&B is opposite the farm shop which has a cafe and there’s some great walks from there. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

This b&b is a gem: it is quirkily decorated and a delight to stay in. There is no kettle in your room but you are offered freshly made tea / coffee and have your choice of early morning drink delivered to your room half an hour before breakfast- a perfect start to the day. The breakfast is excellent, freshly cooked to order, with locally sourced produce. We look forward to returning…

We had a lovely few days stay at Parsons B&B. We loved the decor and style of our room & the house. it is so nice to stay somewhere with ‘soul’. Breakfast was superb, with local fresh tasty produce. David and Allison were both friendly and helpful and the trays of tea and coffee with fresh milk, were very much appreciated after returning from a long walk (and were available any time just by asking). You can even walk to Dovedale from the path opposite the B&B. We definitely recommend staying here and would love to return in the future.

This is a brilliant example of an English B&B. David and his wife are welcoming hosts. You are always armed with a cup of tea (if desired) and the breakfast is delicious. Comfortable, nicely decorated rooms too. A great base for walking in the Peaks.

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at Parson B&B. It really elevated our weekend in the Peak District - where we had gone to do a rock climbing course. It made the perfect base to come back to a comfortable cosy house after being out in the winds, rain and rugged moors of the area. David is a fantastic and attentive host - who makes sure you are never without a tea or coffee and everything is going well with your trip. The breakfast is fantastic - cooked to order - the breakfast trifle is a must have. The location in Harington is perfect - it's a beautiful village. The house itself is stunning and aesthetically pleasing.Maudy is a highlight of the property! Highly recommend and we will try to be back.

Tea was on offer whenever you liked and also had a great selection from earl grey to fruit teas. Would definitely stop again if we plan on going to the area again. Once again thank you!

We had a lovely few days stay at Parsons B&B. We loved the decor and style of our room & the house. it is so nice to stay somewhere with ‘soul’. Breakfast was superb, with local fresh tasty produce.

This is a brilliant example of an English B&B. David and his wife are welcoming hosts. You are always armed with a cup of tea (if desired) and the breakfast is delicious. Comfortable, nicely decorated rooms too. A great base for walking in the Peaks.

It was a joy to stay at Parsons House - close to the village centre, the whole place is unusual and quirky; the owner, David, is kind and attentive, the bed one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in; the bath deep with a plentiful supply of hot water; fresh tea and coffee offered at every opportunity, and delivered to the bedroom door; and the breakfasts absolutely delicious - beautifully cooked and presented with local produce, breakfast trifle, and quince marmalade. I would highly recommend this B&B, and truly hope to go back one day. Many thanks, David :)

What can you say about parsons b&b only one word fantastic. David and his wife are the perfect hosts and nothing wasn’t any trouble. Every morning he would leave us a tray of tea and coffee with a jug of milk and no plastic small pots of milk in site. Rooms are beautiful decorated and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was brilliant and all locally sourced and was superb, the parsons b&b is right in the heart of Hartington so you can park your car and have no need to drive it till you leave. This b&b is a beautiful hidden gem and we will 100% be staying there again. Thank you David for making our stay really special and we will see you soon. Oh and one more thing even the cat was welcoming and very friendly

What a fantastic little B&B this is. So far away from your standard accommodation. The rooms are furnished in a fascinating eclectic style with lots of interesting little touches and spotlessly clean. As for David, the host, we couldnt ask for better service. Very attentive and always on hand to provide fresh tea or coffee, brought to our room whenever we liked. But never intrusive. The breakfast was excellent. All local produce and the English breakfast cooked fresh any way we liked. We will definitely return. Excellent value for money.

We wondered what we had let ourselves in for on arrival. How surprised we were as our stay progressed. The breakfasts were supreme, the service with a smile by our host, David, wonderfully assisted by Allison. Nothing was too much trouble. A very pleasurable stay. A nice location for our days out and always a welcome home cuppa on our return. Lovely memories.

This b&b is a gem: it is quirkily decorated and a delight to stay in. There is no kettle in your room but you are offered freshly made tea / coffee and have your choice of early morning drink delivered to your room half an hour before breakfast- a perfect start to the day. The breakfast is excellent, freshly cooked to order, with locally sourced produce. We look forward to returning…

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at Parson B&B. It really elevated our weekend in the Peak District - where we had gone to do a rock climbing course. It made the perfect base to come back to a comfortable cosy house after being out in the winds, rain and rugged moors of the area. David is a fantastic and attentive host - who makes sure you are never without a tea or coffee and everything is going well with your trip. The breakfast is fantastic - cooked to order - the breakfast trifle is a must have. The location in Harington is perfect - it's a beautiful village. The house itself is stunning and aesthetically pleasing.Maudy is a highlight of the property! Highly recommend and we will try to be back.

A fabulous B and B in a beautiful village. David offered endless trays of tea and shortbread , a restaurant standard breakfast and is a mine of information! Our mattress was a dream and our sleep was blissful - we even had visits from resident kitty Maude!

This is a very unique b and b decorated with artistic flair and novelty. The breakfasts are amazing -especially the “breakfast trifle”-and David offers tea and coffee throughout the day together with helpful information about the area. Can thoroughly recommend.

Really beautiful property with a character. Parking available in front of property. Super clean and room was good size. No tea making in room but David is happy to provide at any time. Breakfast was freshly made and was delicious. Especially liked home made marmalade. Walking distance to a pub and an Indian restaurant. Walking trails nearby. Many Peak District attraction within easy driving distance . Overall a nice stay with super nice hosts. I would stay again.
