About this property

The Abbott's Chambers

This superb holiday property is at ground floor level in a small and select high-class development of apartments overlooking York’s Medieval Walls, and is just a couple of minutes’ walk to The Minster area.

It offers a beautiful and modern interior, giving guests incredibly high standards of accommodation with a warm welcome, two lovely bedrooms and with complimentary parking just a couple of minutes’ walk away. The Abbot’s Chambers has every convenience to hand with shops, delis, restaurants, ice cream, museums and more close by. A simply terrific location.

This gorgeous two bedroom apartment is accessed through the building’s gates and garden, and through the secure building entrance. It is at ground floor so is handy for those of us with less mobility. The property is beautifully furnished throughout, offering very comfortable sleeping accommodation in two bedrooms (one King and one double).

Through the apartment’s entrance hall the property opens up into a gorgeous open plan living-dining room with designer kitchen. There is a large corner sofa, wonderfully comfortable, and has dining for four guests. The modern kitchen is fully equipped and offers everything a guest could need.

There is a large and sumptuous master bedroom with king sized bed and with a modern en-suite shower-room with power shower. The second bedroom has a superbly comfortable double bed. The pristine family bathroom (with bath and power shower over) is opposite the second bedroom. There is also a lovely private, shared garden to the rear of the building, with seating. Complimentary parking for one vehicle is close by.

This is a really gorgeous holiday property offering guests a terrific location for a special break from which to explore York.

PERFECT LOCATION
We really enjoyed our 4 nights in the Abbots Chambers.Lovely flat - very comfortable, and perfect location. We loved being able to cross the street to enter the supermarket parking lot - how convenient is that? A short walk took us into the old town with its many restaurants and sights, and the Minster was right there. We will return to York for a longer stay - provided it can be in the Abbots Chambers!

Beautiful place and location
First, this was a lovely, well eqipped flat in an absolutely fabulous location. It needed some attention, however. More than a few bulbs were out. The cook fan and light did not function. One of the bathroom fans/heaters did not work nor did the heated towel rack. The freezer was completely frosted over. A note--be sure to bring your own soap, shampoo, etc. If the above were fixed, the place would have been perfect.

Great find
Great Flat and really handy for the town. Clean and everything working/included. If you're arriving by car, ask the vendor to include day passes of the car parks and check which ones you can use (it's more than just the one they recommend).

Location! Location! Location!
This apartment was perfect for our 5 night stay. We loved being able to walk through the wall gate into the city in 5 minutes and to the Minster in 10 minutes. Beautiful city and history around every corner. We loved The Shambles, the National Railway Museum and The Minster. We loved that we walked to all those places as well as walked the wall. Would love to come back. Highly recommended.

Great stay
This place immediately feels like home. So comfortable, spacious, and conveniently located. Access to everything you need is just a short walk away. I loved walking to York Minster and the Shambles. Grocery shopping was so easy because there’s a nice-sized Sainsbury’s directly behind it. It was about an 18 minute walk from the train station too, so not bad at all. I definitely hope to come back here.

A good place to stay in York
Property very clean and tidy on arrival. Adequate facilities and really good location for the City centre. The cooker hob, a ceramic hob variety not induction as stated on at least one document, was very difficult to operate, but the oven and microwave were both fine so this was a minor issue. There was also an issue with the use of the car park, but this was sorted out by the agent, although did cause some concern at the time. Overall, we enjoyed our stay from the time we let ourselves into the front door, to the time we locked the key safe for the last time and would certainly book again were we to visit York again.

Short 4 Night break
Lovely property, very central to York. Very clean, well appointed and comfortable. The induction hob completely defeated me, so some instructions on use would have been good. The microwave also seemed complicated, so again some guidance on using that would have been helpful. Overall well appointed kitchen though.

Very spacious ground floor apartment with a fully equipt kitchen and very comfortable furnature, we were very happy with the location of the property as it is located just a 5 minute walk away from the city centre of york.The hosts were very helpful and friendly when chatting to us about the property and it was left spotlessly clean for us which was a great thing. We will definitley return to this particular property when we revisit york
