Absolute gem of a B&B near the Minster
Absolute gem of a B&B near the Minster.
I traveled with a friend from the US so she could see York. The B&B is ideally situated a short walk from the city walls and York Minster. It never felt too far to walk back from the city attractions, but it was far enough out of the centre to be quiet and feel safe.
The room was spacious, immaculately clean, and comfortable.
The staff are lovely. Nothing was too much to ask. Very accommodating; great communication. Don't be put off by the self-check in after 4 pm. It's very easy.

Relaxing stay
Delightful and quiet location and yet easy to get to all the main attractions of York city centre without the need for a car or taxi. The room and the bed were very comfortable and breakfast was really excellent. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the property is well appointed just like on the photos.

Very nice guesthouse!
Our room was very comfortable for a family of 4. We had one king and two twin beds, and the room was spacious enough to enjoy our short excursion to York. The location was fantastic. We could walk to the train station and to the city center. The street is quiet and beautiful. The bathroom was a highlight. It was spotless and looked recently renovated. The only thing was that we never saw any adult staff on the premises. The teen girls that worked there were very nice but couldn’t answer some of our questions. It would have been nice to have had face to face interaction with the owners or adult staff. Overall, we would stay there again and give it bonus points for cleanliness.
