Historic House in the Heart of the City Centre - sleeps 7 guests in 3 bedrooms

Surrounded by 2000 years of history this superb 5 star holiday home is located within the city walls and has to be one of the most marvellous locations in York. There are a huge choice of restaurants and bars within short walking distance. There are also a big range of takeaways very close by. The property has been re-designed and refurbished offering a beautiful, modern and welcoming 5 star interior, giving guests incredibly high standards of accommodation with 3 sumptuous bedrooms. The house is just a few minutes' walk from the city centre down Walmgate where there is a huge choice of restaurants, bars, shops and delis.
A completely stunning property and a stunning location.

The property is beautifully furnished throughout, offering excellent sleeping accommodation in three sumptuous bedrooms. The property can accommodate up to 7 guests extremely comfortably, with lots of space.

Through the entrance hall the property opens up into a stunning open plan living room and spacious dining area seating 7 guests to sit and enjoy and meal and drinks together. There is a Smart TV, to sit and watch in front of the cosy fire, we provide free wi-fi throughout the property.

The fully equipped, kitchen is separate from the living area and has everything you will need for your stay, oven, hob, microwave, washing machine and a full size fridge freezer , it offers everything you could need during your stay.
There are also plenty of pans, utensils and crockery so you can make your own meals.

Off the kitchen is the convenience of a downstairs bathroom with shower over the bath.

Heading upstairs The main bedroom offers a luxuriously comfortable super king sized bed that can be split into singles if required, hanging rail, and a small double futon sofa bed, The second bedroom has a superbly comfortable double bed. We have top hotel quality fluffy towels, 100% cool crisp cotton sheets and sumptuous pocket sprung mattresses to make for a great nights sleep.

The master bathroom has a fantastic walk in shower.

Heading up to the top floor you will find a double bedroom with a stunning en-suite with a walk in shower.


This really is a stunning, high class and superb holiday property offering guests one of the best locations to stay, and from which to explore the city.

There are a huge choice of restaurants and bars within short walking distance. There are also a big range of takeaways very close by.

Because we are so central there is no parking on site, however Peel street car park is a few minutes walk away and can be used.

Regrettably out of respect for our neighbours we cannot accept bookings from Stag and Hen parties as we are in a quiet residential part of the city.

Home away from home

This was our second time staying in this lovely house. We were able to have a ‘home away from home’ feeling and enjoyed spending time by the fire chatting when we weren’t out at any one of the many nearby restaurants or coffee shops. Being able to walk to everything we wanted to do was fantastic. Would highly recommend staying here.
