107 Nunnery Lane - a House of York holiday home

The hosts were really thorough with instructions around the house and easily contactable. We especially loved the cinema room and all of the York photos dotted around. Despite it being on a main road we didn’t hear any noise in the bedrooms. Plenty of kitchen items and on the whole a lovely stay.

It would have been useful to have a second toilet located on the first floor just because when you’re in the basement the toilet is up 2 flights of stairs but not a massive deal and also a banister into the basement would have been ideal but these are very minor things and wouldn’t stop us coming back.

Very well equipped, nicely decorated downstairs very spacious

The windows in bedrooms on first floor didn’t open and it was very stuffy.

Only 1 bathroom and loo.

My grandchildren loved the games room and the huge selection of books and games. The youngest one wanted to stay!! My daughter and l loved the calming decor and the location. The house was spotlessly clean.

We loved it all.

This is a lovely house, the location was fantastic with the city centre, train station and lots of restaurants all within easy walking distance. The kids loved the basement with the table football and huge tv. Great communication from the owners with lots of tips on what to see and do.

Great location. Great communication from the host. Spottlessly clean, comfy beds and pillows, loved the log burner, well decorated, large spacious living and kitchen area. The kitchen was fully equipped. Milk and biscuits a nice touch. Tasteful, fun decor.

Cinema room not set out in a way that more than 2 people could sit together to watch a movie. Which was a bit of a letdown as the cinema room was the main reason we chose the house. The bath looked fun and quirky in the pics but, in reality, looked impossible and somewhat dangerous to use. So none of our party dared try is out in case they couldn't get back out of it. Couldn't open the bedroom window due to being enclosed in plastic. I get this is to maintain heat in the home but being asthmatic in a single room, I would have like to be able to open the window, especially as the door was designed not to stay open too. But this is merely personal preference. Again, personal preference, but we found the amount of "signage" a bit overwhelming and uneeded.

Very clean, comfortable and close to city walls about a 10-15 min walk from the train station. Modern decor, nice kitchen/dining, social space perfect for socialising and family get together. Tourist information and pictures of local attractions around the house were a nice touch. Good communication before and during our visit from the host who responded very quickly when we needed assistance.

Nothing- all good. Shame we weren't staying longer to make the most of all the facilities in the house.

Comfortable and modern

I couldn’t find a t towel 😂definitely not the end of the world

Lovely house ,really nice area and not far from all attractions

I can't think of anything to dislike

We were kept well informed of what to expect with respect of parking and access prior to our trip. The property itself has everything you could possibly need during your stay and was just a short walking distance from the centre.

The location was perfect for everything. The parking wasn’t easy as car parks recommended were full, but a local told us to park in the racecourse. That was good, dropped bags off, went and parked.

Nothing we didn’t like.

Loved the location, the layout of property was perfect, lovely kitchen/dinner and cinema room. It also felt safe and cosy. Ten min walk to centre and train station. Located on a lovely street with lovely food places and bars. Would definitely return. Host was very helpful.

Nothing we didn’t like about it.

Great location and facilities. Clean and tidy with great cinema/games room and added wow.

Nothing

very helpful host

An extra loo/bathroom would have been lovely

Very clean, very spacious and light. Lots of books and games. Kitchen had everything you needed. Lots of info and help given re check in, activities in York, local places to eat, shops etc.

Bath difficult to get in and out of and quire uncomfortable to be in. Shower door very difficult to open from the inside. Beds a little hard.

Very well thought out and put-together three bedroom property with plenty of space for a family. Very conveniently located a short walk from the middle of York and with a good range of shops, restaurants and cafes within 90 seconds walk. I would absolutely stay here again.

This is a really good quality property so not much not to like. Parking is a few minutes away but the owners are very upfront about that. Having only one toilet located in the bathroom takes a little getting used to but that’s a minor quibble.

Location is great, short walk to centre of city and all sights. House is comfortable. Log burner a bonus.

Some areas of the house were a bit cold but we were experiencing a particularly cold snap.

Fabulous stay at Nunnery Lane. Very comfortable and great location within walking distance of York centre and train station. Communication from owner was excellent. We’d most definitely stay again.

Owners were very communicative. House is in an excellent position to explore York.

We felt the bathroom was too small (5 girls on a weekend away and only one toilet and one small shower). A bath is available but is a tiny Japanese style and seems a bit of a waste of precious bathroom space.

Great location for the racing and town.

Only 1 toilet

It was clean, very comfortable, full of character and the location was perfect for exploring York on foot. The host Alistair and Claire were friendly, welcoming and informative. Would return and definitely recommend.

Nothing

It’s size and location

Some elements of cleanliness but properly due to previous occupants- odd dirty cup/ plate/ toilet etc. Had there been cats in the property? My husband and son had quite a bit of hassle with parking- probably better to arrive by train.

No breakfast St location excellent

Location, lovely home, lots of space

We have no complaints - it was very good

Very good condition apartment. Clean and tidy. Great location and instructions within the apartment helps also

An ensuite for the attic room would be great but understand why there isn't one

it was a home from home, even had a some milk supplied for a reviving cuppa.

More a reminder for myself when taking my mum. that she struggles with stairs now. honestly the property itself was everything we could have wished for otherwise.

Loved the log burner, very cosy. Loved the location as very easy to access York centre, no problems parking and lovely croissant shop at end of street.

Bath unusable due to difficulties getting in and out, also uncomfortable. Shower door handle was not fitted correctly, a family member could not get out of the shower as there was no handle on the inside. The beds were hard and uncomfortable which led to sleepless nights. Cinema room was impressive but not accessible due to the basement being cold and hard to heat up.

Location, space, log burner, comfortable, owners' attention to detail

Insufficient wood on arrival

The location next to York was fabulous - walking distance to everything. The wood burning stove came in handy as it was cold and the heated floor in the bathroom was a nice touch. Parking was a convnient location. The house was energy efficient and you had the option of heating the rooms you wished to use. The movie / games room was a nice way of using the downstairs space.

The beds were sadly not comfortable. The property is listed as pet friendly although you are not allowed to leave your pet unattended which I think can be misleading. If you wanted to go for dinner on an evening, you need to take your dog which I think reduces flexibility of your holiday. The basement games room is great but my husband is over six feet tall and the ceiling is very low, Great for kids, not so much adults

The location was excellent a 10 minute walk to the station and a 10 minute walk into the city.

Nothing

great location, extremely comfortable, within walking distance to so many amazing things in York.

Location was fabulous, a very comfortable place to stay. A bonus to meet our host on arrival.

Fantastic accommodation ... clean, superbly equipped and perfectly positioned to enjoy the city centre and surrounding cafes and restaurants of Bishy Rd. Excellent hosts and would definitely recommend!

Comfortable sofas and beds.... Easy to relax. Good location... Easy walking distance into town Nicely furnished throughout

There was some banging of heads on ceiling up in the attic. Very low eves. Could have done with some extra eco logs. There were only 2 and we were unable to purchase any more from Pextons which was the only place we were allowed to buy... They had none. So no log burner on 2nd night!!

very clean an comfortable

the location was great, visit from owners was nice to check everything was ok and welcome cake. clean and very comfortable we had a great stay.

the only issue we had was the double bed on the first floor was a bit hard for my husband to sleep on comfortably.

The door excellent way to gain entry into the property

Great location to town centre. Local to shops/places to eat also if not wanting to go into town. Facilities are great. The owner has thought of everything. Highly impressed with the website for details before and during your stay.

N/A

The place is beautiful and the hosts provided so much helpful information, and discounted parking.

Cleaning at the end. Had to wait for the dishwasher to finish which delayed us. Would be better if we could leave with the dishwasher running.

It is a beautiful house. The location is excellent. We had everything we needed and more. Excellent for a family or a group of friends. Alistair was very friendly and helpful. We made use of the recommended car park which was very close and also enjoyed the recommended restaurants on “Bishy Road”.

Nothing. It was perfect for our needs in fact it is my second visit.

We loved the layout and comfort of the property. All of the facilities were great especially the cinema area and kitchen/ diner. The number of bedrooms was really good for us and everything was clean and tidy. The hosts checked in during our stay which was a nice touch and the proximity to some lovely shops and restaurant recommendations plus York city centre itself was brilliant.

We did not dislike anything.

Very well equipped, great games and book selection. kids loved the games room. all rooms very clean and cosy. Cake on arrival thoughtful and tea, coffee & milk supplies. Owners extremely organised with communications and notes around home to work heating, locks etc. Felt we had privacy. Excellent location. Thank you.

Breakfast not included however very good local cafe.
