Information about the host

This fantastic apartment is right in the centre of York - but is just a short stroll from open spaces and riverside walks. Plenty of space and peace and quiet for those who need to work - but with all the delights of the city on the doorstep. No one would guess that an unassuming door in one of central York’s most bustling streets gives access to the haven of peace and beauty that is Stonegate Court. Once through this door, you take the lift to a private piazza giving a dazzling view of the full length of York Minster — one of the largest and finest examples of Gothic architecture anywhere in the world. You can sit on one of the benches there and marvel at the sheer grandeur of the place — then step straight from the piazza into your apartment and delight in its space and airiness, its elegant decor and furnishings, the fine linens and toiletries, the three TVs and all the other high-end equipment designed to make your stay as comfortable and carefree as possible. On that note: it is also important for our neighbours to feel comfortable, too, and this apartment is not suitable for large-single sex groups or people wishing to party into the night.

I moved to York when my first-born child gained a place in the Minster Choir. He is now an adult, but York is so fantastic that I have never left!

On one side of the apartment is the world-famous Betty's Café; just around the corner is the magnificent Minster. Wander through the ancient network of streets and 'snickelways' and you will find old, very old and extremely old domestic architecture, mediaeval churches of every size and description, and splendid iconic buildings such as Clifford's Tower, St. William's College, Merchant Adventurers' Hall, and the various 'bars' or gateways that lead through the venerable city walls — on the top of which you can walk almost all around the city, with magnificent views at every turn. If this gives you an appetite, you couldn't be in a better place: York is the only English city that made it into a recent list of Europe's Top Ten hotspots for food and wine. In the evening you can slip into one of the countless wine bars and pubs, take in a performance at the Theatre Royal, or scare your socks off on a guided ghost tour. If you fancy venturing further afield, it's only a short journey to Whitby, Castle Howard, Fountains Abbey, the Eden Camp, Flamingoland ... the list is endless!
