Self-catering accommodation for visits to York

York is a popular tourist destination after London and Stratford-upon-Avon. It's a lively city, with lots of hustle and bustle, a thriving market, pubs and tea shops, a good shopping centre and lots of 'touristy' things to do.

The centre, much of which lies within the yellow city walls is where tourists head for. Here you will find the Cathedral, the Castle, the Jorvik Visitor Centre, boat trips on the river, charming old buildings, many originating from the 16th Century or earlier, and the famous Shambles with its narrow lanes and interesting range of specialist shops.

Use the Feature Pages menu to find self-catering accommodation in and around York.
