With its flagstone-style flooring, leafy courtyard and traditional fireplace taking pride of place in the living room, there's a rustic feel to this recently renovated address, but a quick glance at the map will show you that you're in the centre of York. The large range cooker in the kitchen will make whipping up home-cooked meals a breeze and you have the choice of dining indoors or alfresco. Upstairs, the bathtub awaits after a long day of exploring this endlessly fascinating city, which you're in an excellent location to do so. Museum Gardens are a twelve-minute walk along the River Ouse if you're into your plants, while the JORVIK Viking Centre — just over five minutes away on foot — is sure to keep history buffs busy for an afternoon.
