Preacher’s Yard Courtyard Apartment 1

About this property

Preacher’s Yard Courtyard Apartment 1 is a beautiful ground-floor apartment in York, North Yorkshire, featuring an enclosed courtyard, open-plan living. Set within Preachers’ Yard, a beautifully converted Grade II listed former Wesleyan chapel dating to 1759, it offers a characterful base for families, friends or business travellers exploring this historic city. Enter the apartment and discover a sociable open-plan living space where exposed beams recall the building’s past. Prepare breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen before gathering at the dining area to map out the day, or return after sightseeing to share supper and settle before the Smart TV. The king-size and double bedrooms provide inviting spaces for four guests to unpack, while the shower room, complete with a walk-in shower, is ready for refreshing starts.

Outside, the enclosed courtyard extends the living space into the open air, with a patio and furniture for morning drinks or an evening spent recalling the day’s discoveries. York places centuries of history within reach. Admire the soaring architecture of York Minster, uncover railway stories at the National Railway Museum and journey into the city’s Viking past at the JORVIK Viking Centre. Independent shops and local amenities are also close by. Venture to Knaresborough to explore Knaresborough Castle, follow riverside paths beneath its striking railway viaduct and discover the legends surrounding Mother Shipton’s Cave. In Harrogate, stroll through Valley Gardens, explore the collections at the Royal Pump Room Museum and wander among seasonal planting at RHS Garden Harlow Carr.

For another memorable outing, head to Leeds, where the Royal Armouries Museum, Leeds Art Gallery and the grand arcades of the city centre offer history, culture and impressive architecture. From chapel character to city adventures, Preacher’s Yard Courtyard Apartment 1 makes an engaging base for discovering York and North Yorkshire.

The city of York needs no recommendation, for it teems with interest for the holidaymaker: the Minster, its medieval walls, boat trips on the River Ouse, York Races, museums(including the famous National Railway Museum and the Castle Museum), and the internationally-renowned Jorvik Viking Centre and its "time trip" experience. Summer and winter, there is something to fascinate the whole family. Explore York’s quaint streets and hidden corners, or take an excursion further afield to the Dales, Moors or the coastal resorts of Scarborough, Whitby and Filey. Yorkshire is rich in stately homes, with Harewood House and Castle Howard just two of several within an hour’s drive. A cycling city boasting two theatres, character pubs and great shopping, York has it all.
