Beautiful flat in a great location

★ 5/5
19 August 2026

We chose Bishop’s Court flat to stay near some friends in the area, but we feel like we lucked into a real gem in York. Beautifully updated, pristinely maintained, and incredibly well organized for guests, this flat was lovely. Located just off the scenic Bishy Road with a short walk into city center, it felt like a quiet retreat outside the tourist hustle and bustle. Really enjoyed our stay, would absolutely recommend.

Provided everything we needed

We were really happy with this property. Conveniently located and in very good condition. It was well provided with all the facilities we required. Excellent TV for watching the World Cup. Quiet neighbourhood but easy walk into city centre. Minor plumbing issues, one shower bracket loose and one bathroom sink drained very slowly. Think 4pm entry and 10am departure unnecessarily mean. Why not 3pm and 11am? But overall very satisfied and would book again.

Great time in York

This is a great place to stay if you want to be out and about in York. Close enough to walk into town, but not so close that you hear rowdy crowds or traffic. Quiet street, which was ideal for three mature women to get a good night's sleep. Nice little area out the back to chill. Accommodation was great, clean and comfortable. I slept in the loft area which was so quiet, even with the windows open. Would definitely come back to this property in the future.

We had a wonderful stay and would happily return. The property was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything needed for a relaxing self-catering holiday. The location was a real highlight. Situated within easy walking distance of York city centre and with a fantastic selection of independent shops and cafes close by. Despite being so conveniently located, the area itself felt quiet and peaceful. Everything felt well-maintained, and it was clear that care had been taken to make guests feel at home. Overall, this is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located base in York. Highly recommended for anyone wanting the flexibility of a self-catering break in York.

Stayed for the 3rd time at the house and it was once again in excellent condition. All needs are catered for with lots of kitchen utensils including a Nespresso machine. Only thing missing was a corkscrew so had to buy one! Would definetely return again and again.

The location was great, close to the city and close to great independent shops on Bishy Rd. The property is in excellent condition and was immaculately clean. It suited our needs really well. 3 beds, 2 baths and generous sitting room worked well. Definitely recommend to others. A top stay.

15 min walk to York, excellent local resteraunts, lovely clean house. Only minor comment would be that with all supplied utensils there is little room for food storage. Bedroom storage excellent and comfortable throughout.

Fantastic location, comfortable cottage

We had a lovely week staying at Bishop's Court Cottage with our toddler. The location is fantastic, only a short walk into the centre of York, and with all the independent shops and cafes of Bishopthorpe Road on the doorstep. Our 2.5 year old absolutely loved Rowntree Park, which is also just a short walk away. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped. A few more chopping boards, wooden spoons and oven gloves for those like us who will be eating in most days would be great, but very minor points. Parking was a bit tight but we always found a space on the same street. We did have an issue with the parking permit expiring half way through our stay leading to a parking permit, but Stays York sorted this for us very quickly. We would stay here again.

Stayed in the house for the 2nd time and once again it was excellent. Great location to walk into York away from the hustle bustle but has some lovely local bars and shops on the Bishy Road. Have recommended to friends who are coming to York for the racing as it’s a fantastic location for that.

A lovely property only a short walk from the stations. The area was very quiet and friendly. The house was lovely and warm and cosy. It was big enough for a family to stay in. The kitchen needed a little more storage space for food etc and there could have a been a few more essentials such as dishwasher tablets left but all in all it was very well equipped and we would definitely book to stay again.

House was great! Perfect location and had everything we needed. Really liked being close to York as well as more local shops. Minor niggles: a Nespresso machine is provided but no pods! The king bedroom smelt of drains (am assuming from the ensuite). Overall a great stay and would definitely book again.

Nice stay

Stays are a superb renting company and very responsive. The cottage is a small modernised Victorian terrace. It’s listed as 6 adults but probably better as 2 adults, 3 children. Sparkling 2.5 bathrooms, and modern kitchen. We had a nice 7 nights.

Excellent accommodation, impressive customer service

We had a great long weekend here. House was comfortable; nice and warm, good beds, kitchen well set up etc. Distance into city centre was perfect, some great cafes nearby. What made the deal stand out was the excellent response from the accommodation team. I needed to check the situation with the parking permit ( you should include this more prominently in your advertising, guys, it is a big selling point) and had a quick response to my phone call. Then I couldn’t use the smart TV ( turned out to be entirely my fault mistyping Wi-Fi code) and the young woman came round straight away and sorted it for me. Very satisfied overall.

Excellent house in good location

Very comfortable house in a pleasant area, within walking distance of the City centre and of a local shopping parade with a variety of interesting independent shops, plus a Sainsbury's Local. Comfortable sitting room with large TV . Well equipped kitchen, but could have done with some pods for the coffee machine. Filter coffee provided in the welcome pack but no cafetiere to put it in. Beds comfortable and good quality large towels. Could have done with some hooks in the bathrooms and bedrooms and a chair in the main bedroom. Otherwise cannot fault it.

Lovely clean house equipped with everything we needed during our stay. The 2nd double bedroom is very small but everything else was great. The house is in an ideal location for walking into York. The welcome box was a lovely touch.

Really enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. Beautifully decorated. Close to all amenities. Very convenient location. Would highly recommend this home and will return. Only problem; parking permit issued was out of date. This resulted in me receiving a parking fine. This was frustrating and upsetting. Fine was paid immediately by StaysYork but left me wondering everyday if I would receive another fine.

Thank you very much for taking the time to review the property. We would again like to offer our sincere apologies for the inconvenience regarding the parking permit. As you have said, we paid the parking fine immediately for you. Following the councils decision to move to digital permits, with the exception of holiday lets, there is unfortunately a back log with the council for paper permits. The permit had been applied for prior to it running out, however we are still waiting for the replacement. We hope that this will not prevent you from booking again as this is a lovely property, situated in a great part of York.

The holiday let was beautiful exactly as pictures etc. However, we couldn’t get in before 4pm on the Saturday and had to vacate the property by 10pm on the Monday. Therefore, this was an expensive stay when we only got one full day!!! Disappointing.

A beautiful property with all the convenience of a home.fr.home. clean and well kept. Everything we needed was thought of. With a central location to the city we couldn't have asked for any more.

The house was just lovely. Very clean and spacious. Located very close to the city centre, 15 mins walk, which was perfect with having two teenage children who could go out and explore together. Lovely quiet street with parking close by. The property was very well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. The welcome box contained some essentials and lots of sweet treats-thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay and would happily return and recommend to family and friends. Location was very good for walking into York. House was situated in a good area. Underfloor heating in the kitchen was soooo good. Thoughtful Christmas treats were left which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, clean and comfortable and very good family accommodation.

The location was carefully chosen as we didn't want to stay in a busy noisy area. It was better than we hoped for, a lovely quiet road. It was a lovely walk into York, in fact there were several good ways in. We had a good selection of shops, takeaways etc just around the corner from the cottage. We needed three bedrooms and that put the price up quite a bit. The owners really had thought of everything, a washer dryer and an airer which I didn't find at first. We loved the outdoor space provided, we made good use of it! In a quiet way!

Perfect get away in a quiet residential area which was close to city centre. Everything was well thought out and made to feel like a home away from home. It was super clean, cosy and spacious. I would highly recommend. Thanks for making our stay perfect!
