Map & live prices by our partner
The villas on this page are really self-catering holiday homes – the label covers everything from a one-bedroom barn conversion to a six-bedroom hall. What they share is space and privacy: your own kitchen, your own entrance, and usually parking. The starting prices tell the story: The Barn at Poplar Farm asks 152 GBP a night, while Copmanthorpe Hall with its hot tub and six bedrooms costs 1041 GBP. Families and groups get the most value here, because the per-head cost of a large house usually beats a hotel corridor of separate rooms.
Prices on this page start at 119 GBP for a night at Villa Farm York and reach 2544 GBP for Upper Helmsley Hall with six bedrooms and a tennis court. Most of the selection sits between 150 and 400 GBP, with the higher prices going to large group houses and countryside properties with extras like hot tubs and pools.
For a car-free stay, look inside the city centre where properties like 7 Gibson House and 48 Fairfax Street put you within a short walk of the station and the historic sights. If you choose a countryside lodge such as Springwood Shepherd Huts, you will need the farm shuttle or a taxi – the centre is a drive away.
Several of the city-centre properties are within a short walk of the station. 48 Fairfax Street is described as a short walk to the station and city sights, and 7 Gibson House is a short walk from York's historic attractions. Properties further out, like the shepherd huts, are a shuttle ride or drive away.
Yes. Roseberry Lodge with Hot Tub costs from 260 GBP a night, Honey Bee Lodge from 190 GBP, and Copmanthorpe Hall from 1041 GBP. Villa Farm York also has a hot tub and starts at 119 GBP, making it the cheapest way to get one on this page.
York's holiday homes scatter from the city walls to the rolling Wolds, and the difference shows up in the price. In the centre, something like 7 Gibson House puts you a short walk from the Minster and the Shambles with secure parking thrown in – a rarity inside the walls. Step a few miles out and you are in farmland, where shepherd huts at Springwood and Hornington Manor trade the crowds for garden views and fresh eggs.
The set is overwhelmingly self-catering, so the money goes on space and extras rather than restaurants and room service. At the budget end, Villa Farm York beds a couple for 119 GBP a night. At the top, Upper Helmsley Hall asks 2544 GBP for six bedrooms, a tennis court and grounds. In between you get hot tubs, pools, dog-friendly patios and kitchens big enough for a group – most of what a hotel would charge separately is already in the price.
This set suits travellers who want their own front door, a kitchen and the space to spread out – especially groups, families and anyone bringing a dog. If you would rather have someone else cook and clean, or you only need a room to sleep in, the central and budget hotel pages will serve you better. Travellers who want a pool or a dedicated villa experience should look at the villas page, and anyone driving should check the parking page before booking.
