Great short break in character property
Great communication and welcome instructions - clear, helpful and constructive. The house is wonderful, clean, warm and full of character (watch your head in some rooms). It is effectively located in the centre which means you don't need a car. 7 of us stayed and the house provided private space for us all. Main bedrooms all ensuite with bedding to match expectation. It is well maintained with all the facilities you would expect. Being in the centre can make it lively at times. Thank you for a great stay.

Annual trip to York for the races
This is an elegant well kept property a short walk from the centre and it's sites, I pride myself on surprising our friends with the wow factor this didn't disappoint, we did have drunks urinating against the house and local bar getting bottle bins emptied at 5am, but this is a city and expected. Nevertheless would highly recommend for group of friends or extended family who want a good city break
