Self-catering apartments 10 minutes from York Minster
Location
Sycamore Apartments sits within a 10-minute walk of York Minster and the York Railway Station. The city centre is reachable on foot in about 15 minutes via Museum Gardens. York Dungeon and York Cold War Bunker are both within 3.8 km of the property.
Apartments
Each apartment has a private bathroom, a seating area, and a kitchen with modern appliances. Studio apartments and one-bedroom apartments are available, with some featuring a kitchenette behind double doors. Guests have access to a washing facility on the ground floor for longer stays.

The property offers paid on-site private parking, with spaces available on a first-come, first-served basis. Express check-in and check-out, along with private check-in and check-out, are provided for all guests. Free WiFi is available in public areas, and the building is non-smoking throughout with smoke alarms and fire extinguishers.
Practicalities
Check-in is contactless, with door and key codes sent prior to arrival. The apartments are close to the railway line, but double-glazed windows keep out most train noise. A supermarket is located on the route back from the town centre, and nearby restaurants and cafes are within walking distance.

“This apartment struck me as a particularly well-considered base for exploring York, with its quiet, clean, and spacious studios thoughtfully equipped for any stay. The convenience to both the rail station and the city centre is undeniable, making it easy to get around, and I found the direct contact with the owners to be both prompt and genuinely helpful. It's the kind of place that feels thoughtfully prepared, right down to the inclusion of a fan during warmer spells, which speaks volumes about their approach.”
