Quietly removed from York’s centre in a residential neighbourhood north of the city, this home will suit those looking to escape the crowds. While the pared-back, neutral interiors aren’t anything to write home about, the double-height ceilings, exposed beams, and sweet twin bedroom on the mezzanine bring plenty of character. And outside, the suntrap terrace garden is a nice touch for evening drinks. If time is on your side, take the riverside walk into York’s centre along the River Ouse (a lazy forty-five-minute stroll). Or hop on the bus (located two minutes from your door) or the bike tracks, and you’ll be there in no time.

About York
It’s all about history in York. Thick stone walls encase the city centre where a labyrinth of narrow streets leads to the resplendent, gothic York Minster. The Shambles, where timber-framed houses almost touch across the street, has remained the same since the 14th century and is considered one of the best-preserved medieval streets in the country. These buildings are now packed with indie shops and teddy-bear-filled traditional tea rooms. Plenty...
