Great house and location
Lovely property - comfortable, nice decor, clean and very well equipped. The VRBO description of bathrooms is not accurate though - it says that there are 2 bathrooms with a shower only (one en suite on ground floor, one family bathroom on first floor) plus a separate toilet. The main bathroom has a shower and bath but no toilet ie property has 2 toilets and not 3. Not a problem for our party of 4 but might be a bit of an issue if there were 8 people staying.

Christmas in York
What an AMAZING property! Conveniently located to City Centre, I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a home away from home. Beth is a wonderful host and her communication with us about a delayed check in (due to inclement weather) was spot on. My family and I HIGHLY recommend Beth’s property to anyone looking for a great experience.
