Step into a unique city centre escape at New York Loft, a charming two storey apartment located just across the road from the historic Shambles. Tucked down Lady Peckett’s Yard, this stylish property sits within a beautifully converted former tobacco mill, giving it a rich sense of history and character. The building retains much of its original mill charm, from the exposed brickwork and structural beams to subtle nods to its past - including the distinctive tobacco insignia.

Inside, you’ll find a king size bedroom and a double sofa bed, making it ideal for couples seeking a romantic retreat or a small group looking for a central base. Exposed brick walls and timber beams run throughout the apartment, enhancing its distinctive loft style feel and celebrating the heritage of the building. With eclectic décor that transports you to another part of the world, every corner of New York Loft feels like a mini getaway in itself.

The apartment is easily accessed either from the famous Shambles through the Tudor buildings of Lady Peckett’s Yard passage or from the bustling streets nearby. Step outside and you’re surrounded by vibrant restaurants, cafés and shops along Fossgate, Pavement and Piccadilly all just moments from your door.

Whether you’re exploring the historic streets of York or enjoying a cosy night in, New York Loft offers a truly unforgettable city centre stay.

This place has the wow factor. Very quirky, lots of thought has been given to the interior design. Very clean throughout and extremely comfortable. Right in the centre of York with many bars and restaurants close by. Highly recommend staying at The Old Mill. The alleyway next to the apartment is a bit noisy at night time as it backs onto a pub and rear of a restaurant but wouldn't put me off staying here again.

Lovely stay at the Old Mill in York

My husband and I loved our stay at the Old Mill. It is charmingly tucked away down a cobbled court but easy walking distance to all the points of interest we wanted to visit. Restaurants and shops were just a few steps away, as well. The property itself was well-appointed with everything we needed to feel at home. We tended to have lunch out, then brought food in for light dinners after our days of touring. The flat is very spacious - more than enough room for two people to spread out. The decor fun and whimsical while maintaining the flavor of the old industrial building the flat occupies. The pictures on the website are accurate. The bed was lovely and comfortable. The bathtub was especially appreciated as all of our other lodgings on this trip only had showers. We did not have any occasion to speak to the managers, everything was just where we needed it to be and the instructions provided were complete and helpful. Keys in the lockbox made check-in and check-out a breeze. We'd definitely stay here again!

Excellent location

A cosy property in the heart of York. The location is excellent with most places only a 10 minute walk away. The property was very clean and welcoming. Checking in and checking out was simple with excellent communication provided before the stay.

A great little place to stay, perfectly situated and good value for money. It was a busy weekend in York with it being the Ebor festival but we weren't disturbed at all. Everything is where you need it within walking distance and the street next to the accommodation has restaurants from all over the world to suit all tastes.

Just like the pictures

Lovely place presented just like the photos. Great location but that is also a negative re noise. I believe others have also mentioned it but you actually get very little sleep due to the smashing of bottles from the pubs near by emptying bottles into the larger bins. Also a lot of noise from people out in the alley right outside the windows. Not just a once occurrence. Both nights we were awake from about 3am with the bottles, people and then the construction guys who started at 5am that were working on the property in front. Not this hosts fault and they present it well but thought people need to know

We absolutely loved our stay at the old mill. Apartment was stunning and very quirky. Location was perfect, only being a stones throw from shambles and local restaurants ect. Apartment had everything you need down to Bluetooth speakers and coffee machines. If we ever go back to York I'll be looking to stay here again.

Very Quirky !

The Old Mill was a very quirky apartment. Very different from anywhere else we have ever stayed. There were three of us - it was more suited to two people as when the sofa bed was made up it took up most of the living space. Great location.

A Stunning Gem Steps from the Shambles!

The Old Mill is a characterful two-story flat right where you want to be in the heart of old town York. Your approach to the entrance is through Lady Peckett's Yard, a beautiful historic Tudor alley. We stayed here & an upscale hotel in York, and preferred the Old Mill won for location, amenities (full kitchen), & charm. It is immaculately clean, and is thoughtfully decorated by a brilliant designer- references to York & other popular travel destinations, awesome retro 90's dvds/cds. My wife said it reminded her of the apartment on the TV show Friends! It is right across the street from a grocer, coffee shops, & the Shambles historic medieval shopping lane. We will return!

Perfect for a short stay

We booked a weekend stay at the old Mill. We were amazed at the apartment. The photos on the website look great but still don't do it justice. So spacious and luxurious and the location couldn't be better. Step out of the alley straight into the shambles. We love York and visit most years. We won't be staying anywhere else in the future. The only negative was the parking. The carpark is only 5 minutes away but the pizza place round the corner park their cars right in front of the apartment door.

Wow, what a great luxury apartment in a perfect central location. Everything you needed provided including kitchen/hand/bath towels, all cleaning items, tea coffee snacks etc. Smart TV with Netflix, books, games and music, including a piano for your own entertainment. Although parking not available we prebooked this nearby and was at a very reasonable cost. £19 for 3 full days. Even managed an early check in too. All communication with the property was excellent. No negatives at all! We will be back

Very nice apartment that is perfectly located. Love the decor! Didn't like how toilet is jammed agains the bathtub. Also don't like separate hot and cold faucets in the sink. Water easily splashes out of the tub while showering. Kitchen was very well equipped with modern appliances and plenty of utensils.

Bright family from California. We absolutely loved our stay. I would love to purchase this flat and visit all the time. Amazing, perfect location center of everything. Charming decor. Enter down an ally that makes you feel like your in A Harry Potter scene. Lovely bed upstairs and perfect sleeper downstairs. Gift pack upon arrival was lovely. Can’t wait to visit again. If your in a rental car, parking may be an issue but we took a train and arrived by taxi. Can’t say enough. Love this place!

The interior is quirky, the location is perfect and we just didn’t want to leave. Looked to book next year but it’s fully booked but we hope to go back as soon as we can
