This guesthouse was great - and it's just as its website shows. We stayed in room 7 on a weekend break in York (which is wonderful), and it was lovely, and even lovelier when you stop to notice the little details, like the antique furniture, the complimentary sherry (yes, I had a drop or two!), and Portmeirion Pottery (made in... more

My partner and I stayed here for a few days in June, we stayed in the 'annex room 8' which was fabulous, across the road from the main house with it's seperate dressing room, we would recommend staying here to anyone. The breakfasts really started the day off, the fresh fruit platter is a must, finished off with a full... more

We stayed at the Barbican last weekend and I have to say that we must have been the guests from hell and can only apologise. My husband was taken ill with a "hypo" and the ambulance crew had to be called, not the way I wanted to spend the weekend but then you can never plan anything! Adrain and Ann... more

Good quality toiletries,posh loo roll! and beautifully soft,plentiful towels.... more

After spending a great deal of time looking at Yorkshire, my daughter and I finally decided to stay in York and use it as a base to visit much of the surrounding countryside. My daughter (who is studying in France) and I decided to meet up in London and take the train to York. Needless to say I was tired... more
