No 42 is a uniquely styled boutique character property oozing fun and sophistication. This perfectly located home will blow you away with its artistic detail and luxury finishings, ensuring you have a fun and memorable stay. Enjoy the sumptious dining room with fabulous artwork and a 1960s cocktail bar, the
spacious family room with smart TV, bedrooms with wrought iron beds and pillow top mattresses and a large private courtyard with festoon lighting and BBQ. Off street parking for 1-2 cars.

Located just a 5 minute stroll from York Station and 10 minutes to the centre of the city or the racecourse is this stunning Grade II listed Georgian townhouse with off street parking and EV charging point.

Careful thought has gone into every detail of this magnificent holiday home and your comfort and enjoyment has been thought of in every aspect of the design.

From the master bedroom on the top floor with its queen-size wrought iron bed with pillow top mattress, bedside lamps incorporating wireless chargers and en suite shower room, your restful nights sleep is assured.

Two further beautiful bedrooms on the first floor (one very large bedroom with a king bed and one with a double bed), coupled with a luxurious family bathroom, ensure everyone is thought of. For seven guests or if required a trundle bed can be made up in the large bedroom upon request in advance (extra charge applies).

On the ground floor you have a stylish and spacious lounge complimented by the most elegant and extravagant of dining rooms. The artwork is fabulous and the authentic 1960's cocktail bar provides the perfect back drop for a night in, enjoying a meal cooked in the beautifully equipped kitchen. Choose your own music on the Alexa speaker to set the scene.

A handy computer/coffee bar in the kitchen is there for your or your childrens use.

Outside entertaining is made perfect for you in the enclosed and private courtyard encorporating a dining area and a separate pergola with seating with beautiful ambient festoon lighting and a barbeque to create memorable evenings.

Even though the house is perfectly positioned for the centre of York, the Racecourse or the beautiful Yorkshire Countryside you probably won't want to leave!

No.42 provides everything that you could want for to create your own personal oasis of indulgent luxury right on the doorstep of this fabulous city.

Upon booking you will receive our No.42 guest manual which among other things provides some great recommendations of things to do and see in York as well as places to eat and drink.

There are 3 double beds (1 super king, 1 queen, 1 double).
When there are 7 guests or if sharing a bed is not possible for smaller groups then there is a single bed located under the king in the very large 1st floor bedroom. For bookings of 7 guests the single bed will automatically be made up. For bookings of 6 people or less when the single bed is required, it must be booked in advance as it will not be possible to set up on the same day.

Absolutely no Stag or Hen parties - you will be refused entry and/or removed from the house. No all male/female groups without permission.

Walkable location

Location was great. Walking distance from the main line railway station and easy access to town centre. We walked everywhere and didn't need our car. There is plenty of parking space in front of the house for a car or large mpv. There is a small supermarket just a few minutes walk down the road as well as a selection of great restaurants nearby. The house was clean and well decorated. The kitchen was well equipped. Beds were very comfortable!We enjoyed our stay.

Christmas in York

The only negative about our experience is that we could stay for only 3 days. The property was perfect - the location was near the train station, and within a moderate walk from most everything we wanted to do in York. Paul was an excellent host, anticipating virtually all of our needs and addressing them ahead of time. The home was clean, comfortable and lacked nothing.

Super home

This lovely house met all the needs of a group of 5. Great location within easy reach of the station and the city walls. Little supermarket within a short walk. Great mattreses and plenty of comforts within the house. Nice courtyard outdoor area, including a small covered area. The only downside was a little bit of traffic noise at the front of the house because the windows were open (it was over a hot weekend). Otherwise a very comfortable stay. I would recommend this accommodation for anyone wanting to visit York.

A pre-Christmas stay in York with our McRellies who know a good thing & have settled in England. Property is well placed for walking in to York but also handy for nearby bars, cinema & bistros. Decor & furniture in property is modern, in good condition & very pleasing. The ‘welcome pack’ was very welcome & our host did everything he could to accommodate our requests. We’ll be back when next we cross over the Pennines from God’s County of Lancashire. Thank you.

The best place we have stayed in York!

No. 42 is a stunningly renovated terrace house, with a convenient cafe next door. We were looking for a well equipped, three bedroom house and were definitely not disappointed! It will be out go-to option for future stays in York.
