Perfect

We had a great stay, house was perfect for our needs, very comfortable and everything we needed. Parking a plus and right on the bus route into York, bus easy to navigate. We also walked into central York from the house which was pleasant and manageable. Would stay again.

Great house & location

Property was clean & very comfortable & about a 20 min walk from the centre. Everything we needed was there, towels, bedding, kettle, toaster etc. We ate out so did not use hob or oven or washing machine but great to have. Communication with Owners was good re access & I would recommend a stay in this property.

About the host

Hosted by Alistair Budd

My wife and I love York. We have visited many many times over the years. We love the whole atmosphere of a safe city with great nights out alongside the fabulous history and culture.

An opportunity to buy a property arose in 2016. We looked around at 9am and had an offer accepted by 9.15 am, we knew the house was perfect for our needs. and had no hesitations in purchasing, "Alba House". The style and finish of the house is excellent. But primarily the location is great. We can park the car and not use it again all week!!

Our children love the property and so do we. I am sure you will also.
