Brilliant stay
Absolutely beautiful apartment in a perfect position. Sue was very welcoming and left us a few treats & basics to get started. It was very clean and well equipped also very quiet yet close to all amenities. Allocated parking space very useful although no need to drive unless you are going out of town as all York within short walking distance. Five minutes walk to (recommended!) Indian restaurant and local Sainsbury’s.

Another fabulous stay
We have stayed in Sue and John’s flat a good number of times and we always love it. Great clean and well appointed and equipped flat in a central yet quiet location with excellent hosts - Sue and John are very kind responsive and accommodating. We would only stay somewhere else if this flat was not available which has happened on occasion. We will definitely holiday here again and more than happy to recommend - we have no doubts that you would enjoy it as much as we do.
Welcome pack is great after the long drive! Thank you for another great break.

Excellent
We have stayed at the Postern Gate Apartment on a number of occasions, and we enjoy each stay just as much as the last one. Sue and John go out of there way to make sure your stay is as pleasurable as possible, a real home from home with everything you need. It’s very well situated for all the shops, bars and restaurants, and you have your very own private parking space, which is a bonus when staying in York. Looking forward to our next stay in May 2021. Love Carole and Pete
