6 Monkbar Court - sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

Such a characterful little cottage and a wonderful location, walkable to everywhere in the city centre and only five minutes to the Minster. It was great to be able to shop and cook for myself (Tesco Express only a few minutes' walk away) so I didn't have to spend a lot on eating out, and I had somewhere to come back to and relax late afternoon after a full day of sightseeing. I often don't sleep very well when away from home but the bed was SO comfortable - I even tried to find a label on the mattress so I could buy the same kind! I also really appreciated that the duvet wasn't too thick as I prefer a thinner one and often get too hot at night. The shower was also excellent - really good water pressure and easy to control the temperature. The kitchen is fully equipped and bedding, towels, washing up liquid and laundry tabs also provided. My only minor note is that the toilet roll holder could do with fixing because it falls off the wall every time it's used, but it didn't spoil the holiday! It might also be an idea to label the fridge switch - it is weirdly positioned half way up the wall and next to the light-switch so one night I accidentally turned it off and found the fridge full of water the next morning because all the ice in the freezer had melted. But I loved my week staying at Monkbar Court and would highly recommend it.

What a gem! The place is cozy and location is amazing. We’d love to stay again some day.

A perfectly located, extremely homey and comfortable pied a terre in the heart of a lovely old and very friendly town.We enjoyed our stay in York very much and do not hesitate to recommend 6 Monkbar Court. as a delightful holiday retreat. Located beneath an extraordinarily walkable Medieval wall there is also every possible convenience mere steps away in this charming English town whose streets are full of life (not cars!).-- John and Sunny from Toronto

This little cottage is steps away from everything in York and was a very handy place to live during our visit. We could make our own breakfasts and other meals in the kitchen and I actually enjoyed the sound of the tourists talking in many different languages and accents as they walked on the city wall behind us. This did not affect our privacy at all. Sometimes we popped out into the little garden out back to say "hello." It was quiet and peaceful at night and we slept well. The bathroom is up on the first floor (or second floor as we would say) beside the bedroom. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed.
