EVERYTHING STOOD OUT!!! Comfortable, cute, lots of room and Danielle and Tarquin were beyond WONDERFUL! I had a bit if a turnaround at the train station coming in ( opposite direction) so, I was a tiny bit apprehensive ( believe me - its actually very easy walk to and from train station) going back. Tarquin walked with me ( and carried my bag) part of the way . In this day and age - you will absolutely not find kinder nor more considerate hosts such as Danielle and Tarquin!!! The guest house has MASSIVE charm as well!!! I recommend them and the great establishment they run HIGHLY! When choosing a B&B in York - look no farther. Many,many thanks to them both! Also, the story regarding how the Apple came to " be" is wonderful as well!!!!

The Apple house staff were great. Very friendly, easy check in, nice breakfast for reasonable. The neighborhood is very cute with several cafes, restaurants, pubs, and shopping. This place is very close to York and is a good place to use as a home base for a visit. The room was quite dated and could use some updating. There is street noise.

Charming, modern stay in a historic house

I had the room at the very top of the house. It was charming and fit my needs very well! There's no window per se, but there is a skylight over the bed and a little vent slat you can open. There's also an aircon in case you get too warm. The table was great for getting some work done and the bathroom was modern and well-equipped - definitely felt a star higher than I expected for the price. The breakfast was excellent! The owners are very nice and take great care of the guests. It's a very short walk into town and there's a shop around the corner. Highly recommended!
