Victorian Farrar Cottage

Excellent location, we were able to walk out to do our tour. Very good communication with the owner and the facilities were very comfortable and clean. The place is highly recommended.

Very cosy, clean and quirky. Very helpful host.

From the moment we walked in, we loved this unique property, and the vibe was wonderful. Lots of interesting art and design, including the gorgeous bath in the bedroom. Comfortable beds, white fluffy towels all made for a comfy stay. Nigel are host was fabulous, and the location was good. We will definitely be returning.

We had a wonderful stay — the house was spotless, cosy, and had absolutely everything we needed for a comfortable night. Nigel went above and beyond by allowing us to check in early, which made things so much easier for us. The location was peaceful and convenient, perfect for a relaxing stay. It’s only a shame we were there for just one night, as we would have loved more time to enjoy the place. Highly recommend both the property and the host!

The decor was wonderfully vibrant and interesting. A really fun place to stay! Nigel was great too - so helpful when we arrived.

It was all lovely. The bathroom was clean, the shower had great water pressure, and the hot water didn't run out - plus, the bath towels were a good size (very important)! Beds were comfy and clean, and Nigel checked in with us to see if we needed anything else and was extremely obliging. The snacks, waters, and milk waiting for us were a wonderful touch! The location was perfect, too - felt like a true home from home.

The cottage was very well appointed. So clean and everything you could need. So comfortable. The owner went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Parking was so convenient and the location was within walking distance to the city centre and restaurants. The owner was also very informative.

Quirky and comfortable - the bed linen was super soft!

Good central location Exceeded facilities

Beautifully decorated and lovely extra touches - fresh milk and bottled water in the fridge and croissant plus biscuits and crisps which was unexpected and very welcome.

Nigel was a great host, particularly excellent with communication. The cottage was eclectic, friendly, and generously stocked. The location was wonderful, less than 5 minutes walk to the city's Walmgate, leading into the city.

Everything!Nigel who was so accommodating and let us know when the house was ready so we could check in early.The house itself was fabulous,was easy to park outside it,and the bottles of water provided were a life saver.😊

Really nice place full off loads extra bits biscuits etx

Okay, where should we start? It was like coming to visit parents house. Every little detail was filled with caring and comfort. Nigel made this stay one of the most powerful memories in a whole journey, with concerts and etc’. Basket full of food was waiting for us on arrival date, since we arrived very late, just in case we are hungry. Cherries from his own garden, drinks and etc’? We never experienced such a great vibe at any other stay, and we saw a lot of them. Secondly the house itself is very equipped. Again, as you were at home. Kitchen, bedrooms, of course bathtub and plenty of nice details, made just to make unforgettable experience. Close to the old city, supermarket, plenty of parking. To conclude: if you see it available for booking - hurry up :) thank you Nigel

Location was great! Dual bedrooms terrific! Cleanliness first rate! The real gem is the host, Nigel. He was super responsive to our questions. He was anxious to share his knowledge of York and its offerings. He went out of his way to make our stay trouble-free by helping us with parking, suggesting pub food and giving hints on things we might see between our previous stop and York. He was a great host, the best I have had using privately owned properties. The four people in our party all agreed, Nigel is THE BEST!

Nigel went above and beyond to make our stay absolutely fabulous. He is a very kind and thoughtful host and really went the extra mile by providing little treats for my daughters birthday. The house is amazing and is in an excellent location with the bonus of on-street parking too.

Absolutely lovely house and very clean. The inclusion of a few snacks and drinks was a lovely surprise - very generous host. Great location only 10-15 min walk to all the main tourist attractions. Host was lovely and very communicative.
