We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Coach House.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Coach House. It was perfect for us and had everything we needed including very comfortable beds. The location is excellent… a 20 minute walk into York city which we did twice a day sometimes with our little dog. There is so much to do just a short walk away and we enjoyed as many attractions as we could during the week we were there. Recommend walking the city walls as the views are amazing and really helps to navigate your way around. Hopefully we will return again soon, thanks for a lovely time!
