Traditional townhouse building with parking available onsite.
The bedrooms are all of different shapes and sizes due to the style of the building, however there is also an annexe that has been added on to the property. The majority of the rooms are of a medium size and are in a fair condition. All bedrooms have private facilities, TV, direct dial telephone and tea/ coffee facilities. Most have views over the racecourse and clients are allocated either a room in the original townhouse or the annexe.
The lobby area is very small, but there is a medium sized area for guests to sit with a bar where tea and coffee are also served. Recently refurbished in a more modern style the bar area is perfectly for relaxing after a hard-day exploring York.
The restaurant is traditional in style and serves English food.
