Reviews
 30 Sep 2011 |
A Beautiful apartment set alongside the River Ouse in York. Lovely furnishings, clean, stylish, caters for your every need and a wonderful comfy bed too! We've stayed here many times and recommended it to others also. A short 2 minute walk over the Ouse bridge and you are right in the heart of York. The owners are always so welcoming and the provisions are a lovely touch. Highly recommended. |

We can recommend this property without reservation. The keynote to what is provided is generosity, in small details like filled cruets to quality bed linen on a generously-sized bed and healthy plants on the dinky balcony. Its great strengths are the central and attractive location, the welcoming comfort of the accommodation, and the evident care and attention to detail by the owners. It was particularly helpful to have a locked garage which left us free from worry concerning our vehicle. We have stayed in a variety of locations in the UK in recent year and this definitely rates as one of the very best. Also York has a variety and depth of attractions that it would be hard to equal in a city of its size. |

The apartment enjoys a terrific view over the river in the centre of York with a small balcony to sit and relax. It has everything you need with some lovely touches from the owners such as fresh flowers, milk and biscuits. We would stay there again. |

Thanks once again - we hope to return soon!" N & LP, Ashstead, Surrey, October 2011
"We'd decided on our honeymoon being in York. People were surprised at our choice, however it was inspired! The apartment was ideal in everyway - a real home from home and ideally located on the river bank in the centre of the city. My only concern is that as news spreads of this place future bookings may have to be made way in advance...... thank you for letting us stay here". S & AM, Bangor, Wales, September 2011

"This book is pages of praise for the accommodation & we entirely agree! A great deal of care is evident everywhere". A & HM, Chichester, August 2011
"First class accommodation with some lovely touches such as the flowers, fresh milk and free range eggs. We recommend some great cycling routes along the river and a day trip to Durham on the train - taking the guided tour of the Cathedral. Evensong in York Minster is lovely. Cricket at Scarborough was great. North beach is lovely; south beach best avoided. We ate at Ask (fabulous building) and the Living Room round the corner. Museum Gardens are lovely on a sunny day as is a picnic in the grounds of Castle Howard". J & KJ, Cardiff - August 2011.
