Location, apartment was great, loads of room for the 4 of us.
To be honest it was great, nothing we didn’t like

Pleasant appearance equipment worked. Parking worked though plenty of parking was and exaggeration. Cleaners vey kindly let us in early. Thanks ladies.
Stone floors! This is northern Britain not Italy. I wouldhave needed insulated boots for warm feet in February.
More impirtant safety issues. Fire surrounds in front bedroom are raised from floor but almost same colour stone. Almost impossible to spot in low light so now we have a broken toe. Bath tub has nail sticking out where overflow was.
Double bed was big but the duvet wasn't.

We had an amazing time in York and our stay at the Cozy Fox, this is a fantastic apartment suitable for family, friends and couple a like, we will definitely be rebooking for future visits, stunning property, a few finishing touches to be completed but overall a brilliant apartment

It is a lovely flat which is nicely decorated and seemed to have most things you might need for your stay. It is close to the city centre - walkable and a short drive. Located near a park for dogs / children and in a quiet location.
The owner did provide an after-stay solution with the one-off issues we had, which was excellent customer service.
We had issues with the boiler needing a re-set and an isolation switch which we could not resolve with the owner during our very brief overnight stay. However we came to an arrangement about this. I would still recommend the flat - if everything had been working it would have been excellent. If we had been there longer I am certain the issues would have been resolved for us.

Very close to the site we were working. Very comfortable with two nice size bedrooms for me and my colleague. Have already booked again for our next work trip.

Beautifully decorated and very clean with everything you need. We parked at the property and walked in to York, it is a long walk but really nice. Plenty of room to put your things and nice and warm.
Having to walk through the bathroom to get to the bedroom is a bit annoying, you either get trapped in the bedroom or can’t get to it. We didn’t stay long so not a massive issue.

Clean, modern, spacious.
Only thing was the shower door was off the hinge so couldn’t open or close this easily

Beautifully decorated apartment. Clean and comfortable. Nice quiet street. £11 for an uber into the city.
8.0 / 10.0
Great quiet location, about a 20 min walk into the City with off road parking, so it was great to be able to leave the car and walk in (although the weather was glorious so that helped!). York is a beautiful city with lots of good food and shopping options, as well as all of the history.
Slight miscommunication about the check- in time. I'd requested an early check in and was told we could access property from 2pm, but on arrival, it hadn't been cleaned. Didn't really impact us though as we just headed out and came back for the standard check in time.

This was a great opportunity to stay in an authentic English apartment/townhouse on a typical street. Everything was clean and comfortable, except for the layout—access to the second bedroom was only possible through the single bathroom in the apartment.
The passage through the bathroom was the most inconvenient aspect. Additionally, the apartment is located quite far from the city center—about a 30-minute walk slightly uphill.

The place was spotless, bright and comfortable. Nice quiet neighborhood, with a bus stop about 5 min walk away. Glad we stayed in York for 3 nights. The host was super nice.

Beautifully furnished and very spacious. Comfy beds and generous tea & coffee making provisions. Good communication with host.
Shower screen needs a little attention.

Small shower space. Shower Plate on the head and no room to move. was hit by the taps twice on my head. really bad experience. Bath tub was there with no hand shower etc ehich doesn't help much.

Nice location and nicely decorated. It felt homely
The bathroom had two entrances, one from a bedroom and one from the dining room but not a major issue
7.0 / 10.0
Nice kitchen, lounge, dining area. Lovely, spacious main bedroom.
The second bedroom is very small (cant fit luggage) and you go through the bathroom to get to it, which means you either have to stay in the bedroom while someone is using the bathroom or stay out! Rather inconvenient actually.
Shower leaked water onto the floor.

Lovely property. Really well maintained.
Bathroom was between rooms so that might be a little awkward if more than one couple was staying.

5.0 / 10.0
The decor was beautifully designed
The shower was small and the shower head was not suitable for the size of the shower. It was an overhead shower fitting which meant your head was drenched as there was nowhere to move, a shower cap was provided. The door lock into the apartment was very difficult to use and took many attempts to unlock the door. The second bedroom was located through the bathroom and toilet which for 2 couples was unsuitable. The second bedroom had no where for your luggage which meant you had to manoeuvre over your luggage to get in and out of bed

Lovely set up and everything was provided that was needed for a short stay. Beds were comfortable and the flat was spacious.
We were freezing. Coming from Australia we don't have central heating but all other places we stayed over the previous 5 weeks had heat that came on automatically, or provided clear instructions on how to work it. The heat hadn't turned on by 10pm so we had to go to bed to warm up, luckily the duvet was super warm and we slept well.
It was also quite a way from the tourist areas of York and we didn't have a car, but it didn't rain so we could walk.

We had a 1 night stay on a trip to York. Clare was a very responsive host and The Cosy Fox was perfect for our needs and a great bonus that it's dog friendly. Plenty of space for two couples. Not too far from the city centre and a very competitive nightly rate. Can highly recommend.

Very tastefully decorated and dog friendly with a wonderful park one minute walk away.
It was super hot in the house and we tried to turn down as many radiators as possible but it was very hot overnight and the shower is the smallest I’ve ever used

House was beautifully refurbished
The neighbours upstairs were partying until 4am and we didn’t get much sleep because of noise. Our girls were running the marathon the next day and had gone to bed early to get rest. On complaining the music was turned done but noise continued.

This is an outstanding propertiy to stay in you will not be disappointed.
Great contact with the owner. Good explanations.
A lovely roomy area to stay in. You couldn’t want for more and it’s only a short journey into the city centre of 10 minutes around the corner outside the Fox to the city centre.
So you don’t really need to have to pay the extra prices for staying in the centre if you can get this beautiful place to stay.
A huge beautiful bath, hot water not a problem.
A huge thanks to Claire and the team for producing such a fantastic holiday let.
When I come back to York, I know I’m coming I’m gonna place up first because it doesn’t get any better than this
Nothing i did not like.
