Welcome to our traditional cottage. Recently redecorated and comfortably furnished, it is located just off pretty Clifton Green with its independent tea & cake shop, butcher, supermarket and chemist. Only 5 minutes walk to the river and 15 minutes walk from Bootham Bar (city gate) with its cobbled streets, range of historic pubs and shops, and the famous York Minster.
There is on-street parking in front of the house. We can arrange on-street parking permits for you from the council at £7 per day. Or there is free parking just two minutes' walk from the house.

The neighbourhood:
- Clifton Green is a very pretty piece of parkland, surrounded by some beautiful houses and amenities - including a supermarket (open 7am to 11pm), an independent butcher, a beautiful independent coffee and cake shop, a Boots chemist, pubs and so much more!
- It is a very peaceful area, yet is only a pleasant 10-15 minute walk down a road lined with historic buildings before you are at the city walls and gate. Here you can find St Mary's Abbey and Museum Gardens, a cobbled area lined with historic pubs and shops, and a further 5 minute walk to the famous (and rather impressive) York Minster.
- Alternatively, it is less than 5 minutes walk from our home to the River Ouse - you can walk along the river bank into town (a stunning walk on a beautiful day or evening).
