Sleeping up to 8 guests, it is an ideal home from home for families and groups of friends. Sympathetically restored, it is comfortable with modern facilities, yet retains many original period features that contribute to its unique atmosphere. A hidden gem occupying a unique and enviable position in the heart of York. It is arguably the best located holiday property in the city. A comprehensive refurbishment of the entire house has just been completed, and care was taken to retain the original features, many of which date back nearly 300 years. This sympathetic restoration, when coupled with an eclectic mix of high quality antique and contemporary furnishings, has resulted in an elegant yet relaxed and comfortable residence. It has been awarded a 'Five Star Gold' rating by VisitEngland, and was featured in '25 Beautiful Homes' magazine. Accommodation: Living accommodation is arranged over 3 floors.

On a lectern in the dining area is a large red book entitled 'The Knowledge'. Compiled by the owners, to ensure that their guests have the best experience, it is a constantly updated distillation of the best in and around York - including restaurants, pubs, shopping, sights, entertainment and excursions. Invaluable! In the hallway is a cupboard with rotating displays of information leaflets. The property is right next to York Minster, northern Europe's second-largest gothic cathedral. Everything that York has to offer is right on the doorstep - and yet being down a side street you can enjoy the calm environs of the Minster as well. Perfect. It is a very compact city, much of which is pedestrianised, and most places can be easily reached on foot (which is by far the best way to explore a place). When you get tired there are always buses and taxis to fall back on. The property is ideally placed for exploring and enjoying the wonderful city of York, together with the beautiful county of Yorkshire**, but it is also a superb base for exploring the rest of Britain. York’s famously curved Victorian railway station is just a few minutes walk away with connections all over the country including London and Edinburgh in just under two hours. Safety: The safety of all our guests is of paramount importance to us and whilst we ensure that the house is a safe as is reasonably possible, it is not 'toddler-proof', and we caution parents against bringing very young children (below the age of 4) who would need constant supervision on the stairs and in the kitchen. The Elderly: There are 2 sets of winding wooden stairs to reach the upper floors which might prove difficult for the elderly and infirm (and hazardous for the very young). Parking: For those guests arriving by car there is a free car-parking space for one vehicle, 5 minutes walk from the house. Additional spaces are available in the York City Council car parks which are also close by. Further information on parking and directions will be given in our 'Welcome Package'. It is possible to load and unload directly outside the house before parking up.
