You’ll find this studio apartment in a former confectionery factory on the banks of the River Foss. Inside, expect contemporary design with refreshing pops of colour, exposed brick walls and artwork depicting the building’s heritage. In the comfy living area, the cherry red armchair is the perfect spot for relaxing with a glass of wine at the end of a busy day, while the dining nook calls for sitting down with a generous slice of locally produced curd tart and a strong cup of tea. When you’re ready to stretch your legs, take the ten-minute amble to the JORVIK Viking Centre, higgledy-piggledy Shambles and Betty’s Tea Room – somewhat of an institution in Yorkshire. Plus, the world-famous Minster is only a fifteen-minute stroll away – Ye Olde Starre Inne, York’s oldest pub, makes for an excellent pit-stop en route. 

Cherry Bomb

Affectionally known as Bishy Road to locals, Bishopthorpe Road is home to an award-winning collection of independent shops and is the frequent venue for street parties. It's a great place to stay near if you want to see a more authentic side of York and as luck would have it, this house sits on a side street just off the famous thoroughfare. We can't really find anything to fault with the interior — the long, open living space on the ground floor is bright and welcoming thanks to a big bay window on one side and glass doors on the other. Go through these and you'll be greeted by a courtyard with seating for alfresco feasts in the summer months. For want of a better word, it's all very homely, which is exactly what you want when visiting a new city. If you fancy a jaunt into the historic centre, you can be on the other side of the River Ouse in under ten minutes on foot.

Mitre & Crosier

Nestled between the North York Moors and Yorkshire Coast, this home offers up the best of both worlds. With a charming farmhouse style running throughout, this is a homely retreat for up to six people. You won’t even need to leave your four-legged friends behind as they’re welcome here too – just bear in mind the garden’s not fenced and there’s livestock about. Locally, a visit to Castle Howard Estate is a must, not least because with a stay here, you get complimentary passes and a voucher to use in the farm shop – just don’t forget to check the seasonal opening hours before your stay. 

Serenity Song

Expertly renovated, this former piggery is anything but a pigsty. The interiors are bright, contemporary and poised. A trendy white and grey colour scheme is beautifully livened up with botanical flourishes and earthy green tones, particularly in the bedroom. Take advantage of balmy afternoons with a late lunch on your private courtyard – accompany your spread with local produce from the farm shop just around the corner. After a strong cup of tea and a hunk of sticky parkin, strap on your walking shoes and explore the endless bridleways and trails of the Howardian Hills that surround your home. If you’re keen to explore further afield, an hour’s drive places you at the coast – take your pick between sunny Scarborough and quirky Whitby. When it’s time to call it a day, just before you arrive home to your comfortable king-size bed, make a pit stop in nearby Malton for hearty northern grub – it’s not called Yorkshire’s Food Capital for nothing.

The Old Piggery

This stylish home is a brilliant option for a York getaway. Just a twenty-five-minute walk along the river from the iconic spires of York Minster, you'll be well-placed to explore this historic city. Start the day off with a morning stroll around Rowntree Park – it's just across the river – then make your way towards the restaurants, cafes, pubs and eateries and enjoy lunch in York's bustling city centre. Afterwards, visit Shambles Market for a bit of shopping or, if you consider yourself a history buff, have a look at the many museums and landmarks in town.

Following your jam-packed day of sightseeing, make your way back to this lovely homestead and get comfortable in the living area. The plump L-shaped sofa is perfect for sprawling – plop yourself down and enjoy a glass of wine before preparing a delicious dinner together in the kitchen. We can't help but swoon over the character features, from the hardwood floors to the stained glass front door. Every room oozes warmth and cosiness. 

On winter evenings, the wood-burner in the dining area is a welcome reprieve from the frosty air, while the charming conservatory is the ideal spot to while away a few hours with an engrossing book. We also adore the small private garden – during the summer, bring out a chair and dine alfresco under the Northern sunshine.

Give Me That Northern Soul

This luxury apartment is steeped in grandeur. A huge, open-plan living space is decorated in deluxe fittings and premium furniture. Whether it's the silky-soft sofas, stools at the breakfast bar or the cute corner table, you'll feel like royalty at every moment. 

The interior is laced with elegance and comfort, yet there's not even the best part. Wherever you sit in the living room, the spectacular views of York Minster are on display. To truly indulge in opulence, open the balcony doors and feel like you're dining alfresco, supported by the York skyline as your backdrop.

A small balcony juts out from the apartment to really soak in the enticing ambiance of the city. But instead of just admiring the view, we imagine you'll want to get out and explore yourselves. Luckily, you're just moments away from the charming streets of the city centre – a tapestry of cosy cafes, top-rate restaurants and authentic stores.

After you've scoured the aisles for on-trend clothing and sampled the top-class dishes, immerse your trip with a touch of culture. York is home to the award-winning Castle Museum, an awe-inspiring gallery and National Trust Gardens. It's a magnetic city that has absolutely everything. 



Resident & The Minster

Although the city of York is famed for its historical buildings, this contemporary apartment development is well worth your time, especially this second-floor corner home. In the living room, there are huge floor-to-ceiling windows that let in plenty of natural light, but also look out to a pleasant view of the River Foss flowing by. On warm days, you can draw back the glass door and enjoy the breeze on your face while enjoying this peaceful scene. Despite this distraction, the interior doesn't rest on its laurels, though. There's underfloor heating for the chillier months and a stylish kitchen to keep you fuelled for wandering around the city. Thankfully, an awful lot awaits nearby. York Castle Museum takes around five minutes to reach on foot, as does JORVIK Viking Centre. 

Freedom of the City

Enjoy incredible sixth-floor views over York from this dazzling apartment just a stone’s throw from the River Foss. Upon entering the home, you’ll be immediately struck by the floor-to-ceiling windows filling the space with light and proffering picturesque views over the city’s rooftops as well as the historic York Minster in the distance. Whether you’re curled up on the sofa with a mug of Yorkshire tea or relaxing in the corner seating area with a glass of wine at sunset, you’ll be transfixed by the ever-changing city tableau in front of you. With its wood floors, sparkling appliances and contemporary decor, there’s no mistaking this chic pad for anything other than luxury living. Factor in the two comfortable bedrooms – one of which has a desk – boasting equally breathtaking views as well as the home's rainfall showers, a tub for relaxing in after a day of walking and an on-site parking space for added convenience, and you’ve got everything you need for a blissful break. Outside of your home, York’s Shambles are a six-minute walk away, York Castle Museum is walkable in four and the mighty York Minster is twelve minutes away on foot. 


Yes Minster

Explore York with ease from this cosy, fuss-free home. Just a ten-minute stroll from the city centre, you’ll have historic streets, famous sights, and riverside walks all within reach. Inside, you’ll feel at home thanks to the snug living room and well-equipped kitchen. The modern bathroom is downstairs, which might not suit everyone, and we think it's a little compact in places, though it has everything for a relaxed stay. There’s even a small backyard for morning coffees. All in all, it’s a convenient, welcoming base for exploring this historic city.

York Terrace Retreat

Located within the Castle Howard Estate, this 18th-century stone farmhouse is the perfect setting for a restorative retreat. From the wood-burning fires and cosy sitting rooms to the antique furnishings and snug bedrooms, it’s the ideal spot for families and groups to relax and unwind. Outside, you'll find a private enclosed garden (with a barbecue) and plenty to explore in the surroundings. Guests also receive day entry passes to the Castle along with a voucher for the farm shop, plus it's within easy reach of the North York Moors National Park.

Sun Cottage

This home might be petite, but it has everything you need for a fabulous stay in York. Just a stone's throw away from the city centre, it's a great place to begin your adventures and unwind in style. 

Step inside, and you'll find a comfy living room complete with cheerful pops of colour and a squashy sofa. The open-plan set-up makes it easy to spend quality time together if you're visiting with your partner – open a bottle of wine and chat while you cook your favourite dishes together. There's even a private courtyard, so you can round off your evening with a nightcap in the fresh air. And, the chic bedroom promises a great night's sleep – you'll love the high ceilings and statement light fixtures.

York's historic city walls are a seven-minute stroll away, and will help you to navigate the area. The famous cathedral, York Minster, is a twelve-minute walk away, along with York Art Gallery and the Museum Gardens. And, if some retail therapy is in order, then head for the Shambles – it's one of the most unique shopping streets in the UK. 

City Walls

Bursting with character, this home is a truly unique place to stay in the historic city of York. With plenty of inside space, and the added bonus of a brilliant outdoor area, it's a wonderful spot to spend a long weekend or more.  

The house retains many of its original features, from the high ceilings and wooden floors to the big bay window with its charming shutters. On chilly evenings, you can curl up next to the wood-burning stove and enjoy some local snacks from the welcome hamper kindly provided by your host. The stylish royal blue dining room is ideal for long, lavish dinners, and on sunny days you might prefer to fire up the barbeque for an alfresco feast. And, if you fancy a nightcap, your host has even set up a tiki bar in the garden – cheers to that. 

From here, you just need to cross the River Ouse to arrive at York's bustling city centre. Indulge in some retail therapy in the independent boutiques on The Shambles, one of the most unique shopping streets in the country – it's just twelve minutes away. Afterwards, pop over to the impressive York Minster and stroll through the Museum Gardens before enjoying a pint of local ale in one of the nearby pubs.
