I shouldn't think you can find a better location, 20 seconds walk from the Minster but completely quiet. A perfect holiday rental for a 70th birthday celebration! ##### Ruth B.

The rooms were spacious and very clean and also very comfortable. The location was superior and only a short walk to everything the City of York has to offer! I will definitely look to stay here again. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin K. 28 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Next to the Minster This is a lovely spacious and quiet property, literally just next to York Minster. There is a lovely private terrace, with views of the tower of The Minster. It is delightful. ##### Robin K.

My room was spacious, with a comfortable bed that made it hard to get up in the mornings. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy to whip up breakfast before heading out for the day. One of the highlights was the small outdoor space. It felt like a peaceful retreat, especially after a day of exploring the local sights. The location was another plus. It was just a short walk to the Minster and close to charming cafes and restaurants. Overall, I had a fantastic stay. If you’re looking for a cosy and inviting place for your holiday, I definitely recommend this spot.

We were gobsmacked and feel very lucky to have found it! Set in the shadow of the Minster, it is a short walk to almost anywhere in central York - but still very quiet in the house (except for the church bells). Everything we could have needed was there. Note that the house is spread over four floors, which we thought only added to its charm… Winner, winner! ##### Melinda L. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Georgia R. 1 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fairytale Christmas Our family enjoyed a magical at this beautiful property. The photos do not do it justice. We were welcomed with fresh baked goodies and all of the necessities to begin our stay. There was even a crate of Christmas goodies waiting for us in the lounge. Our family will cherish the memories of our stay. Thank you! ##### Georgia R. Stayed 9 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victoria S. 28 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous House We loved our stay here. The house is in a prime position and very clean with lovely bed linen and extra touches. Beautifully decorated. Very easy to pull up and unload, then parking is a short drive away. We would definitely stay here again. A coat hook in the hall or kitchen would have been useful. Absolutely lovely house for a family with teenagers, lots of space for all of us. ##### Victoria S.

It sits in a quiet street, surrounded by other period properties, is a stone’s throw from York Minster and the wonderful narrow streets of the city centre. There are also numerous eateries a few minutes walk away. Bedrooms are a decent size, the master generous with sash windows front and rear. Bathroom is well appointed and comfortable - as well as the shower, there’s a separate roll top bath. Sunny weather enabled us to enjoy the courtyard garden. In all, we had a great stay! ##### David M. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rita A. 31 Dec 2023 #### Location, Location, Location! We were staying during Christmas and the house was decorated for the purpose (thank you!). The location is splendid, it couldn't be more central and peaceful at the same time. It was very convenient for each of us to shop for gifts. You can hear the Minster bells between 8am and 8pm, but I found it charming and created quite a Christmas atmosphere. The house is very traditional, charming, and well decorated. It's spacious and very comfortable. The weather didn't allow us to use the terrace, but I believe it would be quite pleasant during the Spring / Summer. I believe I will stay here again on my next visit to York! ##### Rita A.

Was handy to be so central with the pre Xmas market crowds. We could return to the house to chill before going out again. Our party consisted of four adults and two children and everything suited to what we needed. Beautifully furnished with plenty of glasses, cups, plates etc. Would definitely recommend for larger group of people. We had to arrive in two cars, and only one with parking was allowed a few minutes away from the property. My husband had to enlist the help of a local resident to be sure he parked in the allocated bay. Believe it could be marked clearer. The only other thing to mention was the heating was on very low when we arrived and the property spreading over such an area took quite a while to heat up. ##### Cath J.

This is a beautifully appointed house on probably the most exclusive street in York and is central to all that York has to offer whilst being very private. The only thing to be mindful of is that the Minster bells are loud and regular, but they stop for c 12 hours from 8pm. We’d be keen to stay again.

House is beautifully done and very well looked after. Nice spacious rooms, large kitchen, beautiful and clean bathroom, with two leaving rooms (one equipped with toys) and a small garden. Location is amazing, everywhere is walking distance, York Minster is 1 minute away, dining and shopping streets around the corner. Absolutely wonderful stay, recommend this house wholeheartedly! ##### Olga Z. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [City Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-City-Guest-House.h4464528.Hotel-Information) > > [B+B York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-BB-York.h1145243.Hotel-Information) > > [York Pavilion Hotel, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-York-Pavilion-Hotel.h8922.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-York.h430141.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Malmaison-York.h60606604.Hotel-Information) > > [Clementine's Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Clementines-Town-House-Hotel.h1501378.Hotel-Information) > > [Roomzzz York City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Roomzzz-York-City.h40584198.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel du Vin & Bistro York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hotel-Du-Vin-Bistro-York.h7730418.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn York by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-York.h8651.Hotel-Information) > > [Middletons Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Middletons-Hotel.h792058.Hotel-Information) > > [Elmbank York, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Elmbank-Hotel-Lodge.h564409.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-York-Marriott-Hotel.h687255.Hotel-Information) > > [The Minster Hotel York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Minster-Hotel-York.h1223344.Hotel-Information) > > [Wheatlands Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Wheatlands-Lodge-Hotel.h8183878.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity Aparthotels, York, Barbican Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Staycity-Aparthotels-Barbican-Centre.h15150495.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-York-City-Center.h1005.Hotel-Information) > > [St Mary's Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-St-Marys-Guest-House.h16003045.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lighthorseman](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Lighthorseman.h6341130.Hotel-Information) > > [Burton Stone Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Burton-Stone-Inn.h10088692.Hotel-Information) > > [The Grand, York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Grand.h3697588.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles York Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Ibis-York-Centre.h34311.Hotel-Information) > > [Queens Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Queens-Hotel.h11021657.Hotel-Information) > > [The Milner York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Principal-York.h148.Hotel-Information) > > [The Churchill Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Churchill-Hotel.h1779789.Hotel-Information) > > [Hedley House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hedley-House-Hotel.h1382783.Hotel-Information) > > [Jorvik House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Jorvik-House.h2471799.Hotel-Information) > > [No.1 by GuestHouse, York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Grange-Hotel.h11750.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-York.h5388905.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel York Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Novotel-York-Centre.h9583.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crescent Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Crescent-Guest-House.h2244613.Hotel-Information)
