Great stay in perfect location!

The house was perfect for us! Close enough to walk to everything you could want in York but also quiet and residential. The hosts were so wonderful as well. In fact, our stay had shifted a bit and should we have the chance, we’d book again!

Stylish Stay

This little York accommodation was beautiful. The pictures are accurate. Lovely thoughtful decor. Emily has thought of everything. We had everything we needed and then some. Thank you for the wine and goodies on arrival. Location is out of the main core yet close enough to commute (even for a senior). The bed was a little firm for our liking but that is a personal choice. Communication was excellent. We would definitely stay again if our travels bring us back to York.

Truly wonderful!

My husband and teen daughter stayed at this propery for two nights ( wish it was more). It is in a perfect location, within the walls of York, walking distance from train station and to all sights. Beautifully decorated. Great layout, with bedrooms and bath upstairs. Also, the hosts went out of their way to be helpful and immediately responded to our questions about the heat and using the washer/dryer. Host Emily made several wonderful suggestions, including visiting the nearby community owned pub, The Golden Ball. Our only reqret is that we couldn't stay longer. Highly recommend.
