Our family of 3 had a wonderful stay at the Mallard. A superb, fully equipped apartment. We had everything we needed for our week's stay. Great location, within walking distance to City centre and v close to railway museum. Bonus too in having your own designated parking space so no need to drive to/park up in City (which looks to be quite expensive). York Castle Museum definitely worth a visit, so much to see and do, we spent several hours exploring there. Would highly recommend the Mallard to anyone who's looking for a base to stay when visiting York. Excellent communication with Richard, the owner. Peter, the chap who showed us around the apartment, v polite and informative. Thanks both for a great stay!

We were travelling as a family group of 3 adults and one child. The apartment was very well located, just beyond the Railway Museum and within easy walking distance of the city centre (10-15 mins depending on your pace). The flat was a great size; clean, extremely well equipped for self-catering and missing nothing that you might need for a few nights to a few weeks stay. Having parking included was a huge advantage as this can be a deciding factor for us when travelling to popular tourist destinations. Communication with Peter, who provided the welcome and handover was prompt and we would not hesitate to stay here again. An excellent trip from start to finish. Thanks too for providing provisions to get us started, you can't beat a cup of tea after a long drive.

Excellent flat, perfect for our needs with 2 children. Ideal location to York centre (10 min walk with the children, 3 min walk to the rail museum). Will take the opportunity to return in the future.

We have just returned from a wonderful few days in sunny York. Cannot recommend the mallard flat enough. Excellent communication we were warmly greeted by Peter when we arrived. The flat was spotlessly clean, very well appointed and comfortable, and very quiet. We really appreciated the milk, bread etc on arrival and being able to have a cup of tea straight away. A long easy walk into town we did it with a 6 and 3 year old. Thank you for our stay we will be back!

Fantastic flat, great location, well equipped, very helpful gentleman showed us in, definitely recommend and hope to return as had to cut trip short

Spent five days here, such a lovely home from home perfect flat. Close to city centre and train station. Will definitely visit again and recommend to others.

We didn't stay here,we stayed at Foss Flat,which is also owned by Richard.We stopped at Mallard last year,and was lovely,so we decided to give Foss Flat a go. We stopped at Foss for a total of 6 weeks,over December,January.The stay was great,a nice relaxing flat,and in a quiet area.Secure parking,which is ideal.A short walk into York.First port of call was the Royal Oak Pub.( good pub). The flat has everything you need.Nice and cosy.Many thanks to Simon,for his charming manner,and top class customer service skills.Nothing's too much.If you want anything,want to know anything,he knows, as he knows York very well. Thanks again.We'll be back.So,if you can't get into Mallard for a holiday,try Foss Flat.They are both as good.( Sorry,can't find Foss Flat on tripadvisor.)

A lovely 2 bedroom flat, right on top of York centre and station yet in a quiet road. The Train Museum is literally round the corner on the way to the city centre. The beds in the flat are comfortable and and the linen clean and fresh.

Booking was so easy and the gentlema (Richard) who I booked with was always quick with replying to my requests and was very helpful. Also the gentleman (Peter) who was waiting for us on our arrival was very polite and approachable. Between them both an excellent service all round. The apartment was spotless and was very well equipped. Loved it and will definitely 100% would recommend the apartment and the booking process. Well done guys. Thank you for our pleasnt stay 😁

Our hosts were friendly and very easy to communicate with throughout our booking and our stay. The little touches were welcome - basic groceries like bread, milk and butter, and a very well-equipped kitchen. The whole flat is clean, tidy and cosy and the location is absolutely ideal for a stroll into town, and for the station and railway museum. The 4 out of 5 rating is only because of the flat being ground floor, and our bad luck in having such noisy and inconsiderate neighbours above until 3.30am - this is no reflection on our hosts or the location and standard of the flat itself! We just got unlucky! I'd stay again in this location, but preferably in a top floor flat ;)
