"Having the whole of York on our doorstep was such a great experience. Having three children (3-7years) we were able to explore the city without a single winge or whine. The lovely kitchen and dining room made dinner times a pleasure. We all loved it!"

"Had an amazing few days at the house Log fire Beautiful spotless bedrooms Lovely lounge and a downstairs bedroom for my relative Plenty of showers and baths My daughter left her silver ring in bathroom It was promptly posted back to me. After a phone call from the host to tell me it waa found"

"Walk out the gate and turn left and you are looking at one of the gates to the ancient city of York. Walking distance to shops, buses, city wall, and much more. We would stay here again."

"Chose this property for the proximity to a family wedding, but so glad we did. The accomodation is pure luxury, extremely comfortable, well equipped and with amazing mattresses for a fabulous nights sleep. You are set in the country but with easy access to visit numerous places easily. You can sit and enjoy watching the birds and wildlife. The hosts are very friendly and accomodating and have made a wonderful place to stay. Highly recomend. Thankyou."

"Perfect for weekend in York and everything you need is there. We enjoyed our stay 👍"

"The communication for this rental was excellent. Every facet of the apartment was explained in a well-crafted binder with useful information about the city, transportation, appliances, etc. Great host, would definitely stay again. (Just note there is no laundry)."

"Great space!"

"House was fine for our stay, nice touch by the owner to leave milk & biscuits on our arrival. 10-15 minute walk to the Bootham end of the city walls. All in all house was a fine base for a weekend in York."

"Absolutely amazing stay in the Garden House. The photos don't do it justice, a great space for relaxing, catching up with friends and partying. We were a group of 8, and having separate beds with all bedrooms with ensuite was ideal. There is a fabulous terrace but also access to the pool, tennis and croquet lawn as well as lovely walks from the front door. We had planned to go into York on the evening, but decided to stay at the house, as it was so lovely. We left feeling that the place had...

"Booked this lodge for my daughter's for a quiet weekend away , the location was great, near to middlethorpe hall spa. A lovely clean spacious lodge highly recommend for a relaxing weekend away."

"A lovely little property, tucked out of the way 15 minutes walk from one of the gates to the city of York. We parked the car and then left it there. There were local buses but we didn't feel the need to use them. A very modern downstairs bathroom. The stairs were narrow but were aware of this in the comprehensive details. The host was very communicative and let us know all details in ample time. Thanks Angela (and John) "

"This property is a short walk from the city centre and has everything you could need. The host is lovely and very informative. We loved our mini trip, thank you"

"The location was very convenient. Clean. The beds weren’t very confortable though."

"Very nicely renovated historic property. Fantastic for a family getaway after Christmas. Easy access in to the town center. Plentiful hot water. One observation is that the kitchen was cold/drafty and as we visited in winter this was particularly noticeable. The door to the main bathroom doesn’t close properly but did not impair our usage of the bathroom. Overall a wonderful stay!"

"We had a great stay in this beautiful accommodation in York."

"Lovely house in a brilliant location, close enough to walk to attractions yet quiet. We loved the conservatory- kept beautifully warm by the kitchen range, though cooking with the range was tricky and we didn’t discover the microwave until the final day! Clean and functional, daughter loved the attic room and en-suite! Thank you for a good stay"

"A very handy location with easy on-street parking right in front of the house. Well-equipped kitchen with complimentary, quality coffee and tea. Clean, up-to-date bathroom and towels with quality complimentary shampoo and shower gels. Comfortable master bedroom (as in photo) with good quality mattress, though the other two bedrooms had much lower beds which had less comfortable mattresses. Overall, accommodation was fine for a family of four, though there was no wardrobe hanging space available...

"We loved this house. It was beautifully set up with excellent amenities. We loved the cinema room and especially enjoyed watching the rugby on the big screen! Location is great with an easy 15 minute walk into town. Highly recommend."

"Positives: The house was large with nice grounds. There was a nice walk to the local pub. The bedrooms overall were nice. Technical issues: • The hot tub kept tripping the fuseboard. So we missed out on the tub on the Friday night. • A few more dishwashing tablets would have been helpful, as would bin bags • The outside staircase up to the building had large spaces between the bars, which is dangerous for small kids. We suggest a simple wire in the middle of these to ensure kids don’t fall...
