    Great location. Nice to touch have a few bits and bobs in the kitchen, especially milk/bread etc. Seb was great in terms of communications before and when we arrived. I think we may all end up booking the apartment again in the future.

    Location is excellent for visiting York. Just a few steps away from York Minster and many other York attractions. Property had all that a family of four needed, including bread and pancakes in the fridge :-) Beds comfy and very good shower made...

This listed building is from the 18th century backs on to the great city walls. It's less than a 5 minute walk from the Minster, and the city centre, and the apartment has lots of beautiful beams and wonky walls to give guests a genuine stay in part of historic York. This is a refurbished, modern and contemporary, yet characterful apartment above a hair salon on Gillygate. It has a lovely secluded balcony terrace that looks out on to the city walls of york, and when the trees aren't so leafy there is a view of the minster. The apartment has 1 car parking space available. Check is from 4pm, Parking is available from 2pm on request. It is a comfortable home away from home, whether your enjoying your breakfast on a sunny morning out on the terrace, or snuggled up on the sofa with the heating turned up high, we feel sure you will enjoy this fantastic space. The apartments hub is the kitchen and living room, with a separate dining room. It has 2 large bedrooms one of which also includes a single bed so could be used as a family room or twin room. There is private access from the car park and terrace at the rear, and also from the street front.
I amavailable on the phone or via email once you have booked and will do my best in aiding you with your stay but I like to give my guests space to enjoy the apartment without being bothered by your host too much.
Gillygate is part of the central arteries into the city of york. It has many vibrant bars and cafes Andy restaurants within easy walking distance, and lots of take always near by should you fancy a night in. York city centre is just a few minutes walk away with all the major attractions easily available.
