Luxury Holiday Home in York - near award winning "Bishy Road" - with parking!!

Welcome to our beautiful holiday home - the perfect place to explore York and it's surrounding areas.

The holiday home has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom (TV in the bath!), a stylish open plan lounge, kitchen and dining area and parking for 2 cars. Free Wi-Fi and smart tv including Netflix. We have furnished our home to the highest standard and added lots of extra touches in order to provide our guests with a place they will want to come back to again and again. We are sure you will feel perfectly at home here. 

**Recently added** Fibre 150 broadband which is the fastest broadband package currently on the market. Perfect for if you're visiting and have multiple devices!

Situated in a quiet residential area just 8-10 minutes walk away (we have timed it!) from the historic city of York, the house could not be in a better location. From just round the corner of the house you can take a walk by the river Ouse, over Skeldergate bridge and you will be in the city in no time at all. The beauty of this location is that it offers you easy access to all of the city's attractions as well as having a quiet retreat to return to at the end of the day. Being slightly away from the city centre, there is no passing traffic near the house so we can guarantee you a good nights sleep during your stay so you can recharge your batteries for the following day! 

Bishopthorpe Road is just at the top of the street - winner of "The Best British High Street 2015" award. On this charming street you will find pubs serving traditional ales, coffee shops, restaurants, bakers, grocery stores, deli's and takeaways as well as specialist shops. 

If you are travelling as a family you will appreciate beautiful Rowntree Park which is only a 5 minute walk away. Here you will find plenty to keep the children entertained  including 2 play areas, basketball courts, duck pond, skate park, tennis courts and the lovely Rowntree Park Reading Café.

York holiday

It was perfect for exploring York and the Yorkshire moors. The location was convenient to the city sights, shopping, restaurants, and the train station. The rooms were bright and cheery, clean and well-appointed. I would definitely return.

Fabulous accommodation!

The house is beautifully presented, immaculately clean and has a very welcome chilled bottle of wine waiting for the guests in the fridge ( along with 2 pints of milk which is always handy). Being so close to the city centre and with free parking is a huge asset.

Perfect in every way

This is the perfect house in a perfect location and it has everything you would want to make your stay perfect. At the end of your road you have Bishy road filled with bars, restaurants, shops and Deli’s etc and you are only 15 mins easy walk from the centre of York. The house is super clean and beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and has everything you need. The surroundings are quiet and you also have the luxury of your own parking space. Great stay and will definitely come back

Family Trip

This property is amazing and for anyone visiting York a perfect base. Right from the start of booking the owner was extremely helpful and flexible. The location is best of both worlds, Close to the centre but Bishy Road is a gem in itself you wouldnt necessarily come across. The house itself was beautiful with lots of lovely touches and very well stocked. We had an amazing time in this property and will definitely be visiting again. I couldnt recommend more!

A gem -ideal place to stay in York

A really good house to stay for a break in York. Ideally located with parking a few yards away. It has great Wi-Fi well-appointed throughout with tasteful décor and top end appliances ..Made to feel welcome their-appreciate bottle of wine & coffee/teas biscuits etc made available to us. Christmas tree already lit awaited us on our arrival. Very quiet too and ideal for sleep and chilling out. Plenty of routes into York by foot -10 to 15 mins depending on where you go to in City Centre.” Bishy Road” which has plenty of shops/eateries as at the end of the road too. Excellent in every way & hope to return to finish off sightseeing in York

Lovely house near city centre

Very clean throughout. Spacious open plan kitchen/lounge/dining room. Extremely well equipped. TV above bath a nice touch. Bedrooms perfect for us (2 adults, 2 kids aged 5 & 8). Two parking spaces just around the corner. City centre only a 10 min walk. Rowntree park (good for kids) only 5 min walk. Location was very handy for city break. Only negative was the shower head needs to be higher up, apart from that - fantastic all round :-)

Ferienwohnung zum Wohlfühlen

Die Ferienwohnung entspricht den Fotos und Angaben in der Beschreibung. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Innenstadt sind in kurzer Zeit zu Fuß erreichbar. In der unmittelbaren Nähe befinden sich Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und mehrere nette Restaurants. Zur Wohnung gehören 2 Parkplätze, die gut anzufahren sind. Vom Bahnhof hat die einfache Fahrt mit dem Taxi 5 £ gekostet. Die Gastgeberin ist gut erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen gerne wieder.
