Fair Foss

Ideally located in the heart of York – right on the River Foss – this lovely apartment is the ideal base for a couple or solo traveller looking to make the most out of the city’s historic sights. Though housed in a beautiful Grade II listed building dating back to 1812, this home is wonderfully contemporary, providing all the modern comforts to deliver a relaxing stay. The open-plan main room is a welcoming space with its plump sofa and bookshelf and the TV offers everything you need in way of entertainment – from an Xbox to Netflix – for when you’re not out exploring the city’s sights. With a pretty kitchen and a charming bedroom boasting a large, cosy bed, you'll feel right at home in no time. Outside of your apartment, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, including The Shambles with their ​​overhanging timber-framed buildings (four minutes away), York Minster (ten minutes), the York City Walls (nine minutes) and the Merchant Adventurers' Hall, just a one-minute stroll from your door.
