8 Rowntree House - sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

This delightful apartment is nestled within a Grade II listed building that has been thoughtfully renovated, maintaining the charm and integrity of its original features.

As the birthplace of Joseph Rowntree, the building is enriched with vintage photographs and artifacts that provide a fascinating glimpse into its history.

Perfectly located just across from 'The Shambles,' you're right in the heart of the city's attractions, yet the apartment offers a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle, providing a serene atmosphere away from street noise.

The apartment itself is located on the third floor of the building. The hallway leads into a kitchen, lounge, and dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the modern conveniences you'd expect, including a dishwasher, fridge-freezer, Nespresso machine, and washer/dryer. A dining table seats up to four for meals.

The lounge is partially separated off by a partition wall features a sofa that converts into a bed, ideal for accommodating an extra guest if needed.

The master bedroom is tastefully designed with a double bed, a wardrobe, and bedside tables for added convenience. The spacious bathroom boasts a freestanding, walk-in shower and a separate bath.

While there is no parking at the apartment itself, paid parking is available just a few minutes' walk away. Please enquire for details.
The apartment features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a dryer and an ironing board.
