Sandra and Doug, Dundee

“This thoughtfully designed and a superbly appointed apartment proved to be ideal for our one week stay. Having spent a week in York each August for 29 years (no less!) 2016 saw us move from staying in a B & B into self catering for the first time. We do not think we could have chosen better for this ‘culture change’ as this spotless first floor apartment was perfectly located close to Monk Bar (for the City Walls) and just minutes from the City Centre whilst being remarkably quiet, comfortable and relaxing. We were also greatly impressed by the most helpful, friendly and yet very un-intrusive role played by our hosts Melanie and David. Our great satisfaction is perhaps best illustrated by saying that we were so pleased with our stay that we already have arrangements in place to return in August 2017!”
Keith and Carol, Cheshire

“Cannot say enough good things about this apartment. Within sight of the city walls and five minutes walk to the centre, it offered easy access to all the delights York has to offer without ever moving the car. Our hosts were charming and welcoming, meeting us on our arrival and explaining everything we needed to know. Very concise written information about the apartment and the city was available in the apartment. The apartment itself was very well appointed; modern, bright and warm, extremely comfortable bed, smart TV and extra TV in the bedroom, dvd player, dishwasher, washing machine, internet access and lots more. Lots of lovely little touches, flowers and plants, rugs and cushions made it feel like home from home. Thank you again Melanie and David for making our stay so enjoyable. We shall certainly be returning.”
Sue and Bert, Shropshire

Denise and Rob

“This flat was absolutely stunning, done up beautifully and in a perfect location. We stayed just shy of a week and we were very comfortable here. Melanie and David were some of the most organised hosts we’ve come across – the flat comes with a book of everything from restaurant recommendations to instructions for the appliances! There’s also a large grocery store about a minute away – really useful as we made good use of the kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely visit again.”

Pearl and Clive, London

“This beautiful and contemporary apartment is finished to the highest standard. It’s ideally located, 5 minutes walk from York City Centre and yet perfectly peaceful and quiet. Our host was friendly and welcoming and couldn’t do enough to make sure we had a perfect stay. The apartment was stocked with everything we needed and more, including Yorkshire Tea and shortbread biscuits. Our host even left us some homemade scones! York has great places to eat out but the apartment has a fully equipped kitchen and is near a supermarket so we actually stayed in and cooked. I particularly enjoyed the sound system that connected wirelessly with my phone so we could play our own music while cooking – a great touch! We’d recommend this place to anyone.
