Another excellent stay at a friendly B&B. We stayed the two nights before in Edinburgh at a Travel Lodge, mainly because it is very expensive there, and it was nice to have friendly hosts and a comfortable room. The room had an oriental theme and was very astutely decorated. Again, we chose a B&B close to the railroad station, as... More

We had 2 bedrooms at this B&B and to be honest it was great. John and Linda could not do enough for you and were very welcoming. The rooms were clean and provisions provided for your needs. We were 4 females on a weekend break and the location was ideal. A 10 minute stroll to the center. I would definitely... More

Amber House was a perfect home for our 2 nights in York. Easy access to walk in to the city, parking "pass" to spend 2 days car-free- from the on-site owners - the Fletchers, comfy rooms and cooked to order breakfast. (We had two rooms for 4 travelers). The hosts are very gracious and eager to make your visit memorable.... More

We decided to book here on our trip to York and it is by far the best B&B around. It's a short walk from both the city centre and train station and easy to get to. The owners were very friendly and offered to take our bags as we arrived before the room was ready. They introduced us to York... More

Amber House is off a side street in the Bootham area, so only 10 mins walk to city centre. The welcome is warm, friendly and helpful - a lovely husband and wife team. It's a well appointed place and there was little to ask for in the accommodation - lots of room, very clean. Free water is one of the... More
