Artistic hideaway within York’s ancient city walls

Really clean, very welcoming and the hosts accommodated everything that we requested for a special birthday. Amazing location.

Stairs were steep with a young baby but didn’t affect stay at all!

Quiet location, walking distance to city centre, well equipped property, comfortable, extremely well decorated, lovely garden area. Hosts kept in touched regularly and were welcoming

Nothing to dislike

This is a lovely property in a very nice quiet street a short walk from the centre of York and a short distance in the opposite direction to Yorks very popular Bishy Road. There is parking available on the street and the hosts issue a permit for this. I’ve stayed in lots of properties in York and having available parking is a bonus. The actual property itself is very comfortable. As soon as we let ourselves in we were greeted by a lovely coconut smell and we could see how clean everywhere was. There was a small but very cute,well appointed kitchen to the rear of the property and a delightful little garden to sit out in. It was very peaceful and I enjoyed a morning coffee out there. I imagine this would be lovely to sit in on a summers evening. The living room was very comfortable with lots of art work and plants with a Television. Upstairs the bedrooms were very comfortable and again very nicely decorated. I was very pleased with everything the property had to offer and we really enjoyed our stay. The wine and kettle chips provided by the host was a very welcoming little extra. It was much appreciated as was the milk in the fridge.

I really didn’t want to find fault with this property however need to mention the shower. Unfortunately I found it so difficult getting in and out of the shower as it was just too high for me. It wouldn’t be suitable for anyone with mobility issues. For safety I do think a grab rail would be helpful. It might spoil the aesthetic but something like this is needed. It’s difficult trying to get out of the shower especially when it’s wet and I almost slipped.

It was spacious, clean , easy to find and comfortable to stay in

There was nothing to dislike about it
