We were lucky enough to be fitted in at Mowbray House. It was a lovely room, great attention to detail, the perfect place to chill between sight seeing. A lovely breakfast served in the morning! Spotlessly clean. I would stay again without hesitation!

Another delightful stay at Mowbray House thanks to the friendly and helpful owners Carol and Phil. We extended our stay by two nights because of illness and it was truly a home away from home. Nothing was too much trouble for the delightful owners. The room was well sized for the three of us (all adults) and spotlessly clean. Breakfasts... More

This delightful B&B was recommended to us by the Tourist Information Board. It was the first time we had searched for a place to stay through them as it was very last minute and we were not disappointed with their recommendation. The location was the first great thing that we noticed about the place and it just got better and... More

Just a 5 minute walk into the centre of York, this is a great place to be based. We stopped off for two nights on the way back South from a week in Scotland. The owners couldn't have been more helpful - recommending sights, places to eat, etc. Myself and my partner are both vegetarian, and they did us a... More

Thank you, once again, Carol, Phil and family for making our Easter week-end so special. We keep going back every year and the family always makes us so welcome!! The rooms have been redecorated yet again and kept spotlessly clean. The variety for breakfast is fantastic and plentiful. We are a 3 generation family who never tire of the sites... More

Along with her husband phillip they were both very helpful at breakfast as to where the best Christmas shopping streets were. The bedroom was large and spacious. Excellent shower and strictly Non smoking! Looking forward to our next... More

Having first arrived to York, a stranger to everything, I did not know that when my first B&B owner told me she could not extend our stay she would be doing be the greatest favor ever! Upon her recommendation, my mother and I were received into a very warm family, which has truly become my family away from home now.... More

The bnb is run by husband and wife carol and phil both very friendly and helpful. The rooms where big and very well kept, with an en-suite that was spotless. The location of the BnB is a little walk from the city but its a nice walk with many smaller but good shops on the way. The breakfast was massive... More
