This charming retreat for two enjoys one of the most enviable locations in York, just steps from York Minster and sharing a peaceful courtyard and garden with Minster Garden Apartment. With the Minster quite literally on your doorstep, and neighbouring Minster Yard and the York Minster Refectory, you’ll be perfectly placed to enjoy everything the city centre has to offer. Tucked away in serene seclusion yet only moments from York’s vibrant heart, it offers the best of both worlds.
Accessed via a private corridor, the house is arranged over three floors. The ground floor features a welcoming kitchen and dining area; the first floor offers a comfortable lounge and modern shower room; and the second floor hosts a cosy bedroom. Each room enjoys beautiful views of the Minster, a truly special backdrop to your stay.
Set within the historic Minster Precinct, this remarkable property is rich in character. The floors are charmingly uneven, and the staircase has limited head height, reflecting its medieval origins. Minster View and Minster Garden (5 Minster Yard and 2 College Street) were originally part of a two-storey row of tenements built in the 1300s, and exposed sections of the medieval structure remain, providing a tangible connection to centuries of history.
This property can also be booked alongside Minister Garden, or 7 Monk Bar Court offering equally inviting stays, each with their own unique appeal.
For larger gatherings, we offer several properties in the same location that can be booked alongside Minister View. Round the corner, Chapter House is a beautiful option, brimming with character and historic charm. Church House provides the added benefit of parking and a spacious open-plan living area and Ogleforth a charming townhouse, all ideal for spending time together.
Please do get in touch if you’d like help choosing the right combination of properties for your group.
