Me and my mother booked a two night stay at Bowen House paying a deposit of £65 which was immediately debited from my mothers account expecting to pay another £65 on arrival. Based on the excellent reviews we were anticipating an excellent stay. However this was not the case. After a 1 hour and 30 minute journey from Oldham we... more

The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The location was ideal, with a comfatable 10min walk into town. The breakfast was fantastic and full of choice! The room was fairly small but extremely adequate and very clean. Recommend stopping here! more

I stayed at the Bowen for one night, having booked two double rooms for single occupancy (allocated the two attic rooms). The plus points for me was the proximity to the centre of York itself,being about a ten minute walk or thereabouts to the Minster. Parking wasn't a problem as you can park the car at the side of the... more

Lisa and Ricky were fabulous. We stayed in an ensuite spacious, clean room (#3). Lisa did a load of wash for us. We sampled our first black pudding (tastes similar to scrapple). They have a sunny dining area and a nice porch area outside. It's an easy walk to York town center. We walked the wall, visited York Minister, the... more

After a long drive Lisa's friendly helped us relax. We had two rooms; a double ensuite for us and the twin room for the girls. Very clean rooms with the usual facilities and a supply of toiletries. A really good breakfast was served in the pleasant bright conservatory ; more than enough for the biggest appetite and with plenty of... more

We have just returned from a weekend Christmas Shopping in York and stayed in the excellent Bowen Guest House. Lisa and her husband are superb hosts, their rooms are all tastefully decorated and the breakfast can not be praised enough. There is plenty of choice of cereal, fruit juices, yogurt and also the full english, of which there is also... more

We stayed at the Bowen Guest House for three nights (7-9 October 2006) and had a great time. The guest house is in a really superb location - just about a five minute walk to York Minster. There is a small guest car park which is free. The guest house is on a side street off the main road and... more
