John Walker House

York's most visited attractions lie within walking distance of John Walker House: the Minster, the Viking Centre, the Castle Museum and the Railway Museum are all close by, as are the cobbled streets around Fossgate with their cafés, restaurants and bars. The city walls themselves run nearby. When sightseeing palls, Museum Gardens and Rowntrees Park offer places to sit and recover.

The apartment occupies the first floor of a quiet courtyard building and sleeps five across two bedrooms. One has a double bed with its own en-suite shower; the other contains a double and a single. A family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower serves the second bedroom. The open-plan living space includes a kitchen with electric oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher and washer-dryer—equipped for proper cooking if you want an evening in. Doors from the living area open onto a private balcony with outdoor furniture. A smart TV, wifi, bed linen and towels are all provided, along with heating and parking for one car. Smoking is not permitted.
