About this property

York city centre apartment, North Yorkshire, England

A modern, home from home apartment, situated within York’s city walls.
The apartment is on the first floor of a three-storey block of six flats in total, sharing a secure car park.
A coded gateway, located under the archway entrance, ensures security for the small complex.
Set within a small, neatly maintained and peaceful, communal garden, the apartment comprises an entrance hall, sitting room, breakfast kitchen, twin bedroom, master bedroom and bathroom.
In the sitting room are two large leather sofas, one of which converts into a comfortable double bed, a flat widescreen television with digital channels and access to Netflix, and a Blu-Ray DVD player. A selection of DVDs, games and many books about York - its history and attractions - are all provided, as is broadband internet access. Wifi is available throughout.
The fully-fitted kitchen contains everything you need to feel at home including a dishwasher, fridge freezer, washwe/dryer, microwave, cafetiere and toaster.
There are electric heaters in each room and an electric immersion tank for hot water.
All York’s museums (Railway, Castle, Yorkshire and Chocolate - York’s Sweet History) are a short stroll away, as are two cinemas, both theatres and the Barbican concert venue. York Racecourse is also within walking distance.
For motorists, Queens Court provides a secure, allocated parking space. It is equally convenient for the railway station and Park & Ride bus stops.

*Since Covid, a hand sanitiser unit has been installed inside the front door of the building in which our apartment is located. It makes sense to use this each time you enter, regardless of any current virus warnings.

We loved our stay here. It was perfect for our family of 4. We very much appreciated how comfortable and spacious it was including a 2nd bedroom with two twin beds for our kids. We were also thankful for the washer/dryer as our next travel destination was without laundry. We enjoyed the board games, local books, and TV & DVD collection in the large and comfortable living room. The accommodation is perfectly located within walking distance to the train station, many tourist sites, great restaurants, shops, and groceries. The kitchen has everything you need too. We hope to visit again. Our host Debbie was very kind and a wonderful source of helpful information. She went out of here way to answer our questions and provided great travel advice. We are so thankful and happy we found Debbie and her wonderful VRBO.
