David Parr House

Such great experience - couldn’t recommend more. The stewards/guides Sheila and Caro were absolutely amazing throughout all of the tour. You can feel how passionate they are about the artist and the house - it’s contagious! The house is absolutely gorgeous - so much craftsmanship and talent. An hour very well spent - surrounded by history and beauty.

I have been wanting to visit David Parr's house for a few years now and it did not disappoint. The house itself is a capsule of time, creativity and dedication to craft and to the family home. Our tour guides were great and gave us time to look at the house alone whilst always closely for questions and information. The young lady (blonde wavy hair), we didn't catch her name, was really sweet and informative, she was doing a great job. I recommend a visit to anyone interested in history and the arts & crafts. It is such a special house.

Amazing experience, I didn't even know there was such a gem hidden here! Definitely worth a visit, especially for anyone interested in late Victorian house decor and social history

Cannot recommend this Arts & Crafts gem highly enough. Fascinating house, a lasting legacy of a talented and hard working decorative artist. A warm welcome from the brilliant volunteer guides - whose subject knowledge is lightly worn!

I attended a lino cutting course which was excellent.The Tutor was knowledgeable and able to help those who required it. The event was well paced and we all finished and printed off our designs.There was a plentiful supply of equipment and resources. Some participants took advantage of the opportunity to walk through the house. This was the first time I had attended a lino cutting course at this venue and would definitely book other courses here. It was good value for money and a way to learn a new skill or perfect the art of lino cutting and printing.

Friendly and welcoming guide. Fascinating house to visit if you love Victorian decor, Arts&Crafts Movement, time capsules, or social history like Back In Time for Dinner. A survival so much rarer than any stately home, and worth visiting as a result.

Intriguing history of great artistic skills in a small mid 19th century terraced house and the lovely family history ending with the preservation of the house as a home and a place of art and endeavour. Staff are well informed and delightful guides.

A really interesting tour of a unique house. The social history is as interesting as the devorative art. They only allow 6 people to tour at a time so that you can see the rooms and the decorative features without being too crowded. Knowledgeable guides.
