About this apartment rental
In a stunning Victorian-built house, this tucked-away spot offers the perfect escape for a couple or pair of travellers keen to explore the sights of York. Bursting with charm and character, the home has been renovated to accentuate its original features with a modern aesthetic. With every room in the home dressed in harmony with the others, it presents a coherent space to cosy up in after fun-filled days and nights soaking up the surrounding locale.
From the kitchen, head outside to the cute south-facing garden area, which provides a place to sit out in the sunshine amidst the flowerbeds. During the summer months, the outdoor space offers a romantic atmosphere with festoon lights and an idyllic spot to enjoy a candlelit dinner.
Head out to discover the many fabulous restaurants, bars and boutiques of York, just a twenty-minute walk away. From the ancient walls of Roman York to the grandeur of Georgian York, follow the city's cobbled streets to soak up its impressive history, architecture and monuments. Beyond the centre of York, from here, you'll also be well located to uncover the scenic Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors and Wolds for long country walks among nature.
