Located in the pleasant neighbourhood of Bishophill, inside of the ancient city Bar Walls. York city centre is a stone's throw, and can be reached in 5 minutes on foot. The vibrant hub of Bishopthorpe Road is also 5 minutes walk away, where you can find many independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs.
Our period property dates back to the 1890s, and has been thoughtfully renovated and decorated throughout to a high standard. There are two double bedrooms and a sofa bed which makes accommodation suitable for up to 6 people. Families are welcome too - we've got a high chair and travel cot available to borrow.
Linen and towels are replaced with freshly laundered supplies between each stay. Remote self check-in gives flexibility for late arrivals, and 24/7 guest support is on hand should you need any assistance during your stay.
Ground Floor:
A separate entrance hall leads to the front living room and the second reception room which is open planned into the kitchen. The front living room is a nice quiet space to relax after a busy day out in the city. The sofa bed is situation in this room too. (The sofa bed is queen size.)
The kitchen space to the rear of the house is shared with the second reception room, making it a wonderfully social space. There are two large comfy sofas, a Smart TV (guest Netflix account and free view), and the Vodafone superfast broadband has a fast average speed of 67mb.
Our newly fitted kitchen has a modern farmhouse style; the countertops are oak effect, and the apron sink makes the space look homely. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, fridge freezer, hob, washer dryer, microwave, kettle and toaster. There's an addition of a Nespresso coffee machine which is compatible with Nescafe Dolce Gusto for anyone wishing to bring their own pods. The breakfast bar can seat up to three, and can be doubled up as a work from home station.
Access via the rear kitchen door is into a small private yard.
First Floor:
Upstairs are the two bedrooms and shower room (no bath).
The master bedroom has a king size bed, built in wardrobe, chest of drawers, night tables and lamps. In the second bedroom there is an Ottoman queen size bed and a hanging rail and shelving.
The newly fitted shower room is modern and contemporary, with black fixtures and fittings. The generously sized shower(no bath) benefits from a rainfall shower and handheld shower.
There will be some complimentary tea/coffee waiting for you which I am sure will be useful for those arriving after a long journey!

CHECK IN / CHECK OUT
Check-in time is after 4pm and check-out time is before 10am. A £30 charge will be requested if guests check themselves in early without permission or if guests do not check out on time as this will cause disruption to my cleaner’s schedule.
Please note that you will be charged £100 for lost keys, so please be careful with them.
FAMILY FACILITIES
A highchair, travel cot and mattress are provided. Guests are welcome to make use of the additional facilities however I politely ask that the travel cot is packed down and then returned back to its original place of storage before you check out. Don’t forget to bring their own cot bedding. Please make sure the highchair is wiped down after use and also stored away. Thank you.
