Weekend Christmas getaway

Fantastic stay, close to all the highlights of york, could not fault the accommodation. Both of proprietors are amazing and make you very welcome. We stayed in dec and the place was nicely decorated for Christmas, the gingerbread scent in the hallway was lovely. The accommodation is very clean and tidy with all you need for a comfortable stay.
