The Apple house staff were great. Very friendly, easy check in, nice breakfast for reasonable. The neighborhood is very cute with several cafes, restaurants, pubs, and shopping. This place is very close to York and is a good place to use as a home base for a visit. The room was quite dated and could use some updating. There is street noise.

Charming and cute BnB

First thing, the most charming owner of the guest house greets you upon arrival and gives you the biggest of smiles. We were show to our room with a very comfortable bed and a nice shower. And even though the weather was hot, ac and a fan were really good to cool us down. Location is just 5min walk out of the city centre but it’s well connected to buses and the train station. Breakfast was the best I’ve ever tried. Classic full English with homemade eggs and what it feels as local grown food. On an all. A classic English experience

What a lovely little guest house within walking distance to York city centre. Danielle was a lovely host who made sure everything was in order for us. The room was comfortable, the breakfast was delicious and the fact that parking is included makes this place good value for money. The only thing worth noting is that the loft room is up 3 sets of stairs (the last one being a little steep) so bear that in mind if you have luggage or if you plan on doing the climb up the York Cathedral Tower tour (like we did!) Would definitely recommend.

This was our first stay at The Apple House but been to York before. The Apple House seems to be this family's labour of love. It has a very homely feel and we were welcomed so friendly and informative. We were unfortunate to have selected the loft in a heatwave, however we had an air cooling unit, fan and velux window so we coped just fine. It was like a little self contained apartment. Ideal for our stay. The only negatives if you want to be extremely picky, were that the carpet had a small tear, not dangerous. The bathroom wall had a small gap in line with the rafters, you couldnt see through unless you put your face up to it but you could hear. I think although a provision was in place the shower tray may need replacing at some point. The last flight of stairs had small treads, fine for us but with big bags or mobility issues it wouldnt be so good. None of this affected our stay. The location was great, about 10 minutes walk to the station and York Gate to be able to walk the wall. It took no more than 20 minutes walk to the city centre. We had a very well cooked full English breakfast tailored to exactly what we wanted plus yogurts, cereals, fruit, honestly the spread of food was amazing, welcoming and made you feel at home. I would definitely visit again.
