Sandra Depledge Winner 2019 'Certificate of Excellence' Tripadvisor. This impressive period property is on the very doorstep of all that is interesting and exciting about York, you could not be better placed for a perfect city break. The area of Monkgate is a very upmarket residential area very close to York Minster and the city walls. The apartment is on the top floor of the very beautiful County House apartment block (this before converted was the County Hospital). The rooms are, spacious (much larger than they appear in the photographs) and light, and are furnished and equipped to a very high standard. There are two double bedrooms with double beds, one is en suit. There is an additional small 3rd bedroom with double bed, (used as an ALTERNATIVE to the mezzanine bedroom if preferred or if the mezzanines are not private enough for 2 couples staying, please agree the use of a third bed with me before booking as there maybe a charge for extra linen and servicing).There is also a lounge ,a family bathroom,a kitchen diner and a large hallway leading to the two mezzanines upstairs (one has the lounge and the other the second bedroom) both mezzanines are private from each other. This beautiful converted Victorian hospital has great character, it is also set back from the road and therefore there is no road or street noise, very quiet. The gated car park is at the front of the building and free. From the apartment window, which is second (top) floor you have a view across the city, we are so close to the main area of the town. I am sure you will not be disappointed with this fabulous apartment in this very central location.
The apartment is suitable for 2 or 4 people. Families,( who seem to love this upside down apartment), friends or romantic couples.
Unsuitable for Stags and Hens.
Also includes free Wi fi.
Occasional 3rd Bedroom. Please note this third bedroom is to be used only as an extra bed when agreed with me when booking or as an alternative to the mezzanine bedroom. Thank you.

Further details indoors
This is a lovely quiet flat on the second (top) floor of a four storey building. It has a view of accross York away from the city. As you walk through the door you walk into a light and carpeted hallway, straight ahead a doorway leading to the kitchen diner, next doorway is to the occasional bedroom, the next doorway is to the master bedroom with ensuit and then the staircase which leads to the family bathroom, the mezzanine lounge and the mezzanine second bedroom. The apartment is very light as it has 4 long windows about ten foot long which bring light to both floors. The apartment is very cosy and warm and has all that you would need for your stay. I have lived there myself and have made it very comfortable. The second floor of this building is mainly occupied by business people for second homes or retirement. You will have no noise from the street or noisy neighbours.
