Good location, an easy 10 minute walk into York and a good price. Small but comfortable room with all necessary amenities although the free wifi couldn't quite reach up to our room on the top floor. Breakfast was ok. Wasn't blown away but equally wasn't disappointed and it was well priced for what you got and we had everything that... More

Located just outside the wall's of York this B&B is a must stay when visiting the area. Its central location means all attractions are within walking distance. The furthest away being the railway museum. This is roughly half an hours walk. The room in which we stayed was immaculate (cleaned each day) and perfectly kitted out for our stay. On... More

We arrived a little early one Friday lunchtime, to be greeted by Peter, and as we had two cars for one room, which they were not expecting, and I didn't think to mention previously, Peter very kindly assisted us in parking up the cars, and moving theirs to accomodate ours! The house was spotless, we had room 4, as there... More

As a family who visit York regularly my biggest disappointment is we did not discover Bowen House sooner!! On arrival we were greeted by Diane. We were booked into rooms 4 and 5,4 being the larger of the two but both were spotless. Both en suites were of good proportion and also spotless. Breakfast at Bowen House is something else,... More

Diane and Peter made my partner feel extremely welcomed - assisted where they could and made her wedding preparations go to plan. They really couldn't have done more to help, especially when my car broke down and they took control... More

We took advantage of the 3 nights for the price of 2 offer and were not disappointed. We stayed in room 3 which I would highly recommend. We had plenty of space and a nice en suite bathroom which has shower, sink and toilet. The bathroom is entered by going down 2 or 3 stairs in the room but not... More

We stayed at the Bowen House for a weekend (15-17th March) and really found it to be a lovely b&b, probably one of the cleanest b&b's we've ever stayed in. We rented two rooms, room1 which is the twin room and yes I would agree with other members that this room is not suitable for two adults as it is... More

We felt that Diane couldn't do enough for us. She even booked me a hair appointment ready for my big birthday dinner. We stayed in room 3. We found... More
