The location is perfect because it is so central, yet quiet. From our front door just turn left and 20 metres you are on Micklegate, one of York's most famous and interesting streets. We have a fast WiFi connection. Because we are so central there is no parking on site, however I rent a space very close to the house. It can be booked directly through me. We have lots of ammenities in the house, board games for rainy days, a selction of books, high chair, kids toys etc. There are a huge choice of restaurants and bars within short walking distance. There is even one pub on St Martins Lane itself - The Achorne, one of York's hidden gems, a must if you like real ale. There is a Sainsburys Local supermarket around the corner (2 mins walk), Tesco Local (3 mins walk) or a M&S Food (5 mins walk). There are also a big range of takeaways very close by. Regrettably, out of respect for our neighbours, we cannot accept bookings from Stag and Hen parties as we are in a quiet residential part of the city.
