Description of the holiday cottage

This beautifully furnished holiday apartment provides a romantic hideaway for couples visiting York. Just a 4-minute walk to the magnificent minster and the heart of this vibrant city, brings you fine shops and restaurants, street entertainers and riverside bars. With its historic buildings, ancient walls, enchanting gardens, river cruises and a delightful tangle of narrow streets, York breathes an air of effortless romance. The central location means that you don’t need the car as all the attractions are within walking distance. With a quiet courtyard setting, electronic security gates and its own entrance, this ground floor cottage-style apartment gives you freedom to set your own pace with all the comforts of a hotel - we even supply bathrobes and toiletries. Cycle hire is close by and secure cycle storage is available. Shops, pubs and restaurants 150 yards.

Cottage Review:  

We had a very warm welcome by the owners, who had been really helpful in advance, providing a firmer mattress, bike storage & car parking. There was food in the fridge, tea ready & other goodies, helpful guide books & cycle maps. We had a great week enjoying the many delights of York, as well as attending York Early Music Festival. We'll be back!
