    Hi, Each apartment has its own bathroom/shower, and a full white-goods kitchen. The apartments are quite large and the bedroom can take a double bed as well as 2 kids beds. Apartment No.2 also has a double sofa-bed but we don't publicise this too much. Cheers, Lilian, Eva & Shaun

Situated in an inner-city conservation area our exclusive, independent, high-quality, and fully self-contained 4 STAR Serviced / Holiday Apartment's (with parking), are close-by the city-wall's, and just a short 15 minute walk to York city-centre. Sorry, NO PETS & NO SMOKING
I work at an IT Trainer for York NHS Trust.
YORK'S "Bishy Road" (Bishopthorpe Road) is officially the best high street in the country. The street fended off competition from hundreds of other streets to take the title in the Great British High Street Awards 2015, winning not only its "local centre" category but also the overall prize for the best high street in the UK. As such locally there can be found good traditional British Real Ale Pubs (notably The Swan and The Slip Inn), as well as an award-winning Quality Butcher (M & K Butcher's), two fine Grocer's, a superb Delicatessen (The Good Food Shop), a decent Baker (Thomas the Baker), 2 mini-Sainsbury's, the highly-popular and family-themed bijou café (The Pig and Pastry), a traditional Yorkshire fish and chips shop (The Fisherman's Wife), a Reel cinema, the newly-opened and very swish Trinacria Café and Bar, along a wide variety of good British and ethnic restaurants, and not least the well respected Hotel Du Vin bar and bistro. Besides all of these establishments, there is a host of other excellent local shops, amenities, and choice venues - such as the nationally celebrated Barbican Theatre and Venue Centre.
