Situated in York, Hartoft St - 2 bed near river is a recently renovated accommodation, 2.4 km from York Railway station and 1.9 km from York Minster. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the holiday home free of charge. The property is non-smoking and is set 35 km from Bramham Park.

Hartoft St is an absolute gem of a place. Our group consisted of two adults and two kids and it was the perfect base for our trip to York. The location is ideal - 30 seconds walk to the river and a 15 minute walk into the heart of York along the river or by the main roads. Parking is available outside and we had no problem finding a space. The property itself has everything you need and we found it to be a truly welcoming and comfortable setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend staying here.

Located in York and only less than 1 km from York Railway station, Thomas, off Leeman Road, Sleeps 9 provides accommodation with garden views, free WiFi and free private parking. The property has city views and is 1.7 km from York Minster and 33 km from Harrogate International Centre. Outdoor dining is also possible at the holiday home.

We had a group of 7 staying for 2 days of the York Ebor Racing Festival. The house was within walking distance of the train station where buses transported people to the racetrack. Our host facilitated an early bag drop at the house so that we could travel on to the racetrack without our luggage. The house was very clean, bathroom and shower facilities were very good, there was a nice outdoor green area at the back, it is shared with the other units but you have your own table and chairs. It's an ideal property for racing and music festivals for groups of 6-8.

    The lodge was clean, spacious and cosy. Check in and check out was easy, the hot tub was perfect and the kitchen was nice and spacious. Although, there was limited washing up liquid, but the dish washer worked well. The host was friendly and welcoming. Overall, lovely outdoor views and scenery, would come again as it was perfect for group of 6 to relax and enjoy the countryside.

    Took a risk booking this lodge as it was brand new and had no reviews but I’m so glad I did! Just stayed here with two of my friends and the property was absolutely immaculate and was so lovely and cosy. The bed was one of the comfiest I’ve ever slept in and the hot tub was wonderful. There’s also Smart TV’s in all the rooms to watch Netflix too which made our stay perfect. Overall it was a lovely cozy stay and I would definitely come back and recommend it to all my family and friends.
