We stayed at this guesthouse because it offered rooms suitable for families with children. The room and amenities were comfortable, and the delicious breakfast made us feel truly welcomed.
My children were especially delighted with the bunk beds. We would love to stay there again if we have the opportunity.

Charming and cute BnB
First thing, the most charming owner of the guest house greets you upon arrival and gives you the biggest of smiles. We were show to our room with a very comfortable bed and a nice shower. And even though the weather was hot, ac and a fan were really good to cool us down.
Location is just 5min walk out of the city centre but it’s well connected to buses and the train station.
Breakfast was the best I’ve ever tried. Classic full English with homemade eggs and what it feels as local grown food.
On an all. A classic English experience

Trevlig och bra vistelse. Exceptionell värdinna.
Jättetrevlig värdinna. Rent och fräscht. Mysig frukostmatsal och god och fräsch frukost. Centralt och bra läge. Värdinnan var väldigt hjälpsam och se till att alla fick bra parkeringsplatser. Väldigt mån om gästerna. Lite äldre hus men välvårdat.

Beautiful little B&B with very friendly staff and a cute Apple theme. The decor is a little outdated, but it's clean with comfortable beds. Walking distance from the train station and a short walk into town, it's great if you're looking for a budget friendly option to crash in after exploring York all day.
