Number 109

Located in one of York’s handiest addresses for holidaymakers, Number 109 is in an ideal location for your visit. Stay here, opposite the ancient Roman walls, and you can plan stress-free sightseeing like the Vikings once plotted their plunders! Bursting with museums, history and food, the city centre or riverside are barely five minutes away on foot with the infamous Shambles and York Minster a further 15-minute stroll.

Number 109 is situated just off thriving Bishopthorpe Road, which was once named as Britain's best high street. It is a cute, vibrant spot where you will find restaurants, gelaterias, quality cafes and handy greengrocers.

On entering Number 109, you find the the welcoming lounge area which is a delightful convivial space with a Smart television with Netflix, Britbox and Disney+, packed bookcases and a wide selection of games to keep all ages occupied during your stay.

The lounge flows through to the open-plan kitchen-dining space when you find a modern fully equipped kitchen and utility area furnished with all the mod-cons you could need including a washing machine and drying rack. The large dining table provides additional fun by converting into a full size pool table for after dinner fun and entertainment.

Moving up to the first floor, the master bedroom has a king-size bed and a large bay window seat, fitted which is an ideal spot for those quiet reading moments. With a desk and chair provided and high-speed broadband throughout the property, you also have the option to stay connected with work if required. The second bedroom on this floor has a single bed and overlooks the rear of the house.

The second floor houses the spacious attic bedroom which has a super-king-sized bed, which can also be set up as two singles on request. There is also the option to request a Z bed (for a small additional fee) should another person be staying. All three bright bedrooms boast black-out blinds, ample storage and USB charging ports.

And all three share a bathroom with a seperate bath and a walk-in power shower cubicle. Underfloor heating adds an extra dose of luxury here.

Outside, the courtyard’s table and chairs, flanked by old red-brick walls, allow for a soothing glass of wine after energetic days spent exploring.

That exploration is likely to focus on York, but wider adventures are also a cinch. It’s just ten minutes’ walk to York station, from which trains serve pretty Harrogate and foodie Malton, or you can usually drive to sandy beaches, the Moors or Dales within an hour. While Number 109 works very well for teens, tots or toddlers are just as welcome — baby baths, cots and highchairs are all available on request. This is one of three neighbouring, three-bedroom properties (along with Number 107 and Spencer on the Lane) which may be booked together by larger groups should availability allow.

ADDITIONAL ACCOMMODATION

There are three individual townhouses sitting under the same ownership - Number 107 - sleeping 6, Number 109 - sleeping 6, and Spencer on the Lane - sleeping 6. For guests looking to holiday together, all three can be booked as House of York Two to sleep 18 guests in total or as House of York One, which combines Number 107 and Number 109 to sleep 12 guests.
