Lovely cottage in an excellent position. Had everything we needed, although some fresh milk waiting on arrival would have been appreciated. But we would certainly stay again if in York. ### 8/10 Good #### Paul K. 20 Jul 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Good location and facilities.

Really lovely house, well equipped, modern and clean. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aubrie L. 22 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful This house was great for our family of 4 adults. Plenty of room to relax and have our own space after a day of exploring York. It was very clean and well equipped. The neighborhood was quiet and the beds were comfortable so we were able to get good sleep during our stay. Washer and separate dryer were very helpful as we needed to get some laundry done during our stay. Kitchen had all needed amenities. Walking distance to the Shambles, Castle York, and restaurants and pubs. Communication with the hosts was prompt when needed and we appreciated the easy parking on the street. Highly recommended this property. ##### Aubrie L.

It is modern, well equipped and comfortable. There is a small but beautiful garden at the back, great for relaxing and enjoying a drink with friends and family. Highly recommended. ##### Philip S. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 16 Oct 2024 #### Lovely town house right in the heart of the city Stayed with friends for a University reunion. Lovely house with free on street parking (we didn't need it but great if you're visiting by car) only 10 minutes walk from York railway station and less than 5 minutes to the city centre. Very clean and spacious & the bathroom particularly is very up to date and large with a separate bath and walk in shower. There are several stays York houses on the same street (look for Buckingham Terrace) so if you have bigger guest numbers it's worth looking for a few of these together rather than having to find a massive place, which can be expensive and often further out of the city. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Darren H. 30 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Amazing location in a wonderful fully functioning home.
