York, York
Welcome to The Arthouse! A one of a kind, quirky gem of a property that's well equipped for any length of stay in the city. The house has been lovingly brought up to a fantastic standard by the owner and will not disappoint.
Upon entering you will be immediately struck by the fantastic sense of style and high quality touches throughout. Hardwood floors lead into the open plan living/dining area complete with comfy sofa, large wall mounted TV and complimentary Netflix account for your enjoyment. The dining area seats 4 for dinner and showcases regularly changing artwork from local artists with optional purchase available. There's also a record player complete with a good selection of vinyl to peruse.
The kitchen has a rustic feel with solid wood worktops and unique cupboards. There's all the amenities you'd expect to find such as a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and washing machine plus thoughtful touches provided by the owner such as olive oil, salt/pepper, fresh milk, fresh orange juice and fresh ground coffee for each booking. There's also a Nespresso machine, with pods provided for a little bit of extra luxury.
Off the kitchen there's even a fab room with a little cocktail bar! If cocktails aren't your thing then it's a great space to spend time catching up with a good book. The back garden of the property has been transformed into a fantastic landscaped outdoor seating space that really comes into its own in the warmer times of year.
Upstairs the stylish and tasteful décor are continued in the house bathroom and 2 bedrooms. The bathroom is quite sizeable and is complete with a bath with overhead shower. The master bedroom has a king size bed and the second bedroom features a double.
Children permitted over 9 years old.
Permit parking for 1 car is provided.
Loved The Arthouse. Sharon has thought about all of those extra little touches to make you feel so welcome. All the furnishings and fittings are gorgeous and there is plenty of entertainment for cosy nights in (which we did 3 nights out of 4!) if you want something a bit different to the norm this is definitely the place to stay. We’ll definitely be back.
The Arthouse in York is a cracking place to stay. It's super cool and stylish but it's not style over substance; it's a well thought out place with everything you need. The bed we used was extremely comfortable with quality linen. We slept really well as the area is very quiet. Parking was easy direct in front of the property. There wa a thoughtful welcome pack provided. We'd definitely stay again and were sad to leave!
Really nice place to stay. Comfortable beds and very clean. Went for a couple of nights and enjoying every minute. Short distance to ciry centre. We had everything what we wished for. Definitely coming back.
Had a fantastic stay in The Arthouse. It's a brilliant cosy base for visiting York. The house has everything you need for a break away and for a similar price to a hotel in the city, you get an entire house! Welcome pack was a lovely touch. It takes about 20 to 25 minutes to walk to most of the attractions in York which we did. Loads of great cafes etc on the way in to break the walk if you are tired! The information pack provided by the owner is brilliant with loads of suggestions of places to visit ( cafes, restaurants, pubs, shops etc) Free parking outside the house in a quiet residential street is also a plus- Parking in York can be expensive! Would definitely return and recommend to others.
The house was lovely and clean and we had a lovely gift basket of goodies for us when we arrived. The town is a short 10 minute walk so the location was perfect. The area was quiet ans the beds were very comfortable so we slept well. Would definitely book again
Stayed with friends for a theatre trip at the weekend! House very special, a little gem! Everything you could possibly need provided and immaculate condition. Super comfy beds, cool looking furniture and a short walk to Micklegate means this house is a good location for access to the city centre. Friend use a parking app to park on someone’s drive and we had an extra parking permit sorted for our stay so parking not a problem for us. Highly recommend and owner so lovely and helpful. Will be back for Christmas shopping trip!
We were lucky enough to stay at the Art House last weekend. The house is in a perfect location, just a 10 minute walk to the centre over the railway bridge. The host has thought of everything, even down to fans in the bedrooms and a lovely bottle of fizz in the fridge. We would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends.
Amazing couple of nights in The Art House . Absolutely beautiful house 2 nights wasnt long enough the owner thought of everything. Great location !! Absolutely wonderful!! Bottle of bubbly gift box on arrival all information you need to get about just cannot fault the property or anything at all will definitely be returning .
A great house beautifully decorated and very clean. Lots to nice touches like a welcome basket, milk and orange juice in the fridge. My only complaint is that it is further from the center than I would have liked
Probably the best property we've stayed in in a very long time. The property is quirky with lots of personality and the hosts were amazing. Hoping to visit again soon! Thanks - chad & family.
Everything we needed was prepared for our stay. The location is perfect for exploring York’s History. The Walls, Museums and Gardens, The Art Gallery, beautiful old streets with unique shops and of course York Minster. The ArtHouse is a successful example of modernising a character property into a comfortable, relaxing and unique stay in the magnificent city of York.
