Tristram Shandy

Holiday Rental Description

Ten minutes is the key at this red-brick townhouse. It’s a ten-minute walk from York train station and the National Railway Museum, and a ten-minute walk into the historic heart of the city where you’ll find the lively market and atmospheric old streets of The Shambles, and York Minster rising above the ramshackle buildings in all its gothic splendour. On your doorstep sits indie coffee shops, wine bars and boutiques galore. The ground floor is dedicated to socialising. A wood-floored living room is resplendent with high ceilings and a bay window, but a wood-burning stove at the heart of the room keeps everything cosy once it gets crackling. Upstairs, each bedroom has its own style and character, and the master is particularly striking in midnight blue. The real bonus? An outdoor terrace that catches the sunshine and plenty of room to dine outside when the weather is fine.

Home truths:
*This home can accommodate one well-behaved dog, just let your host know
*There is no parking with this home, but there is a large public car park a five-minute walk away
*There are four steps to the entrance of this home and all the bedrooms are upstairs so it may not be suitable for this with limited mobility
*There is only one bathroom between four bedrooms, but there is a separate WC
*Cleaning is weekly if you are staying for longer than seven days
