My sister booked this B&B based on reviews from Tripadvisor, and I am sorry to say that we were disappointed with our stay. The B&B was a 25-minute walk from the train station, but when we asked for directions from tourist information, they suggested taking a taxi since it was evening and the area not so great. That was when... More

Upon arriving we were met by Carole, who was very friendly and gave us a warm welcome and let us know a bit about the history of the city and had some good tips for getting around and what to see. Breakfast,... More

Plenty of choice for breakfast with a cracking Full English. Good location for exploring York by foot, only a ten minute walk into the city centre. Lots of information at hand for local restaurants & site seeing. Will definitely go back if vacancies are available.

This b&b has really nice decor and has a homely and welcoming atmosphere. Our room was nicely decorated and well equipped with chocolates, tea etc. Our only criticism was that the room was a bit cold but it was snowing. Having met the host we think she will rectify this asap and she did offer us extra blankets. Lovely breakfast... More

Various options but an absolute must have is the whisky porridge! Very friendly staff and always ready to help you. Stayed in the single bedroom ensuite which is... More
