We received a very friendly, warm welcome and Carole took her time to show us up to our room and share her knowledge of the local area. We had the rose room and it was spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable with plenty of space for the 2 of us and lots of little extras. We stayed for 2 nights and... More

I loved everything about this B&B. Great location, just a short walk into the city and not too far from the train station either. Accommodation was clean, comfortable and provided everything you could need (towels, hairdryer, toiletries, TV) Carole provided a huge and tasty breakfast which set me up nicely for the days exploring. Wendy who served the breakfast was... More

Really enjoyed staying here - on business so only for 1 night. Carole recommended a fantastic real ale pub to meet my friends in. Didn't do breakfast justice but delicious! Room was comfortable and shower was hot and powerful.

My husband and I recently stayed at Avondale with our two grandchildren. Carole and the staff were friendly and welcoming with good stories to share. Our grandchildren were welcomed and accommodated. It really is just a short walk to the city and the tour bus passes the door. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and although not large (it... More

After trolling tripadvisor for one of the cheaper places to stay in York i found this place as it had some really good reviews and only a few poor ones so i was a little skeptical, but when when my fiancé and i arrived we were pleasantly surprised.

It's a guest house so expect a guest house. But a v good one especially for the price. Small attic room now has perfectly good sized shower/toilet room, although don't take much luggage if you stay in it. I loved it. Squeeky floors but that's what you want? Very good breakfast. Nothing too much trouble. Recommended.

My husband and I had 3 days here, celebrating our wedding aniversary. We could not have chosen better. My daughter had rung beforehand and organised with Carole to buy champagne and flowers. Not only did Carole do this for us, but she thought to send a photo to our daughter. Lovely room, the best breakfast I remember having at a... More

Exactly what you want form a B+B, warm, clean and excellent breakfasts and rooms. The hostess was excellent and really friendly so we will deinitely return. It's a short walk to the centre ao all and all perfect.

I chose this B&B to stay in as it was a short walk to the station and previous reviews had mentioned superb breakfasts and outstanding cleanliness. I found all of these things to be true. Carole has a deep love of York and an engaging way of sharing her knowledge of the city. This is one of the friendliest places... More
