Surrounded by 2000 years of history this superb 5 star holiday home is located within the city walls and has to be one of the most marvellous locations in York. There are a huge choice of restaurants and bars within short walking distance. There are also a big range of takeaways very close by. The property has been re-designed and refurbished offering a beautiful, modern and welcoming 5 star interior, giving guests incredibly high standards of accommodation with 3 sumptuous bedrooms. The house is just a few minutes’ walk from the city centre down Walmgate where there is a huge choice of restaurants, bars, shops and delis.
A completely stunning property and a stunning location.

The property is beautifully furnished throughout, offering excellent sleeping accommodation in three sumptuous bedrooms. The property can accommodate up to 7 guests extremely comfortably, with lots of space.

Through the entrance hall the property opens up into a stunning open plan living room and spacious dining area seating 7 guests to sit and enjoy and meal and drinks together. There is a Smart TV, to sit and watch your favourite Netflix programmes in front of the cosy fire.

The fully equipped, kitchen is separate from the living area and has everything you will need for your stay, oven, hob, microwave, washing machine and a full size fridge freezer , it offers everything you could need during your stay in York. A Clothes drying rack is also provided.
There are also plenty of pans, utensils and crockery so you can make your own meals and enjoy them in the dining area.

Off the kitchen is the convenience of a downstairs bathroom with shower over the bath.

Heading upstairs The main bedroom offers a luxuriously comfortable super king sized bed that can be split into singles if required, offering our guests the choice of sleeping space arrangements. There is a hanging rail for clothing, and a small double futon sofa bed. There is a lovely dressing area, perfect for the ladies getting ready. The second bedroom has a superbly comfortable double bed. We have top hotel quality fluffy towels, 100% cool crisp cotton sheets and sumptuous pocket sprung mattresses to make for a great nights sleep in each bedroom.

The master bathroom is spacious and offers a fantastic walk in shower with modern tiling.

Heading up to the top floor you will find a double bedroom with a stunning en-suite with a walk in shower.

Each bedroom offers contemporary décor with high quality furnishings throughout.

This really is a stunning, high class and superb holiday property offering guests one of the best locations to stay, and from which to explore the city.

The house offers everything you could need, meaning you are able to pack that little bit lighter, including Hairdryers and Ironing facilities and Free High Speed WIFI throughout.

This outstanding home really is the perfect home from home.

Because we are so central there is no parking on site, however Peel street car park is a public car park located literally a few minutes walk away and can be used throughout your stay.

Regrettably out of respect for our neighbours we cannot accept bookings from Stag and Hen parties as we are in a quiet residential part of the city.

Great location

Great central location, stylish living space, we had a nice stay.
No dishwasher. Needs a deep clean. King size bed not comfortable. Difficult to cook due to limited pans/trays which aren’t clean.
Doesn’t live up to the description of “fully equipped”, “5 star” or “luxurious”.
York Boutiques responded very quickly to issues.




Fantastic Stay!

The house is in a great location which meant we could walk to all of the sites, restaurants, cafes etc. but was quiet on an evening so we weren’t kept awake. The house was spotless and beautifully decorated, as well as spacious. A really lovely place for our weekend away!

Lovely apartment, we particulary liked the fact there was 3 bathrooms, which meant no arguements from the teenagers like we get at home. Short walk to the centre, parking permit provided too

Excellent location for a stay in York. A few recommendations that the property needs to bring it up to a good standard. Overall the cleanliness was acceptable, however there were quite a few cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and the skirting boards and window frames needed cleaned. The walls could do with a paint refresh as some of them were scraped and dirty.

This house was great for our family of 6! There was a bathroom on every floor which was great with 4 kids in tow, 2 been teens! The beds were great and the room sizes were perfect for us, we felt everything was thought of at this property as everything we needed was there! the courtyard was great for a glass of wine in the sun on a night. The WIFI was great and allowed the kids a fun movie night, the house was very clean and well presented.



Great stay in a very central location

Excellent location and extremely clean and welcoming. Couldn’t fault anything but for a minor irritant locking / unlocking the front door. I suppose if you’ve done it a few times there’s a knack To it. This didn’t detract in any way from our stay. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a central location in such a wonderful city.

Great location, all within walking distance and once the floors had dried and the bleach had cleared we settled in.
You will need to buy some essentials if you plan to eat in, I had called and asked about a welcome pack, this however was small cartons of milk and tea sachets. It would have been nice to know, but wouldn’t stop me booking the cottage again
