The cobbled streets and ancient walls of York are just moments away, but step inside and you're greeted by warm timber and the quiet creak of a well-kept townhouse settling in for the night.

This is proper guest house territory — a base for history lovers, couples doing the museums and Minster, or anyone who wants a roof and a decent breakfast before another day exploring the city. The camping pods offer something a bit different if you fancy sleeping outside without the full tent experience, though you'll want to ask about specifics when you book. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth a call ahead if you're bringing one along.

It's open all year, which makes it handy for winter city breaks or summer festival visits. Campfires need checking on arrival — not a given in a more urban setting, but they'll let you know what's possible. The vibe is straightforward and low-fuss: a place to sleep well, store your bags, and get back out into one of England's most walkable cities without the frills or fuss of a hotel.
