With an enviable position opposite the historic city walls and with stunning views of York Minster, this one bedroom ground floor apartment is within a 300 year old town house, just a stone’s throw from the city centre and the perfect choice to enjoy a city break. Step outside and this wonderful city is there for your enjoyment. Upon entering the property there is a York stone flag entrance hall.

With access to over 2 miles of York’s medieval city walls, a maze of snickelways and ginnels, world renowned attractions and a plethora of great shops, cafés and restaurants only a short stroll from the front door, you won’t be able to wait to explore this wonderful city. York is fast gaining a reputation as one of the UK’s foodie capitals and you can find some seriously great food, and even better tipples brewed within the city. Why not take a break from walking around the city and see the view from one of the open top tour buses or sail slowly along the River Ouse on a cruise boat.

Loved it in this apartment, right size in good venue. Shower drainage very slow and poor. No ventiation in bedroom except if you leave dble doors open but then security becomes a problem. Very well decorated and other than these two issues couldn't fault the apartment.

This is a lovely cottage in a very good location.
This is a lovely cottage in a very good location. Short walk into town. It has everything you need and the owner has even put the essentials in like coffee, tea, milk and toilet paper. A nice touch were the flowers! We found the wet room a bit of a challenge. We found it difficult to get the bathroom floor dry for the next person, but the shower was lovely. Comfy chairs in the lounge and a big enough table to play board games on!

It was excellent accommodation in a excellent location and It was better value than staying in a nice hotel. It has everything you could possibly need including WiFi, smart tv, laundry room, iron & ironing board. It has a nice lounge with good views of the cathedral and city wall, bedroom is comfortable, nice patio with table and chairs, kitchen is well laid out and the shower room is excellent. We highly recommend it.
