Guesthouse Holmwood House Guest Accommodation
114 Holgate Rd, York, YO24 4BB, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
Bedroom with en suite shower was clean and comfortable. Full cooked breakfast was tasty and plentiful and enjoyable, served by friendly and helpful staff. Within easy walking distance of the city centre.
United KingdomWe had a lovely large room which felt very comfortable, had a very large bed, and was nice and quiet. The hotel is also in a fairly quiet but well located part of York, which is no more than a 10-15 minute walk from the city centre or train station.
United KingdomExcellent facilities, comfy bed, beautiful decor, staff make you feel at home, short walk to the city centre, highly recommend and would stay here again.
United KingdomComfy bed, very friendly staff and good size room👍🏻
United KingdomWe arrived by train, took a taxi to the house. I was traveling with my adult son, so we had a room upstairs with a twin bed and a king size bed, both comfortable, with an en-suite bathroom. There was a kettle, teapot and cups and saucers and all the fixings to make tea or coffee. We took a suggestion from George and had a very nice pub dinner a few minutes walk away. Next morning we had a good breakfast downstairs, packed up and were able to leave our bags in the office. We then walked about 20 minutes to the downtown area, tourists for the rest of the day. Holmwood House was a great place for us to stay!

United KingdomHolmwood House Aug 27, 2018 Highly recommend for a lovely, relaxing stay! Since traveling from American to England for business on Aug 3rd, my husband has worked long hours all but one day. Thus we were thrilled he would not be working on the National Bank Holiday. At the last moment we decided to try and book the perfect accommodations in York, or at least suitable ones since we were so late in booking. Sunday afternoon we scoured the internet looking for accomodations with the intent to drive up the same night in order to enjoy Monday's festivities. After reading wonderful reviews, I was thrilled Holmwood House still had an available room! Upon arrival, we were graciously greeted by Jeanette who spent a great deal of time advising us on how to make the most of our short visit. Our room was charming and SO relaxing. The English breakfast was aboslutely delicious and a wonderful start to our enchanting visit to York! We highly recommend Holmwood House!

Backing onto a pretty square, this Grade II listed house within a Victorian terrace has been lovingly restored to retain the ambiance of a private home with elegant rooms.
Holmwood House features a comfortable sitting room with an open fire. Breakfast is their specialty, with a wide selection including Craster kippers. Special diets can be catered for with prior arrangement.
Holmwood House is west of the city walls, which are just a short walk away. The wonderful York Minster and The Shambles, as well as the Jorvik Viking Center, the Railway Museum and many other attractions are within easy walking distance. York Racecourse is 2 minutes' drive away.
It is also conveniently located for the railway station, for easy access to the Yorkshire countryside, Scarborough and Whitby, as well as the beaches at Filey and Robin Hood's Bay, and the uplands of the Wolds, the Moors and the Dales.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.6 for a two-person trip.
