Waterfront vacation rentals in York

The location was perfect, easy to find and walkable to lots of shops and restaurants. We will definitely be back.

Great location in the heart of York! Walking distance from Shambles and York Minster. Perfect for a weekend away.

This air bnb is a Gem. We've already booked to come back! Suzanne and Ian are such kind and thoughtful hosts. The flat is so peaceful, clean, warm and comfortable, with lovely views of the garden - it has everything you need. The welcome hamper, milk and eggs are such a lovely welcome touch. The train station, bus stops, lovely walks, pubs, a cafe, and co-op mini supermarket are just a few mins walk away. This is a special find and we can't wait to come back!

We loved our stay at Watersedge Lodge, which has superb views of the valley and the nearby canal. There is a range of seating outdoors - perfect for relaxing in the evenings. The appartment was tastefully decorated and impeccably clean. The kitchen was stocked with good utensils/pans for home cooking, and we were grateful of a fridge and a freezer. What made our visit extra special was the hosts. They were quick to respond to messages and very understanding and accommodating of our needs. They are kind, considerate and supportive. We highly recommend Watersedge Lodge. It’s a perfect bolt hole for those needing a quiet retreat, or if you want to explore walks and bike rides on the nearby canal, or farther afield in the Yorkshire Dales. There are also lots of cultural and historical adventures to be had nearby in Leeds, Bradford, Saltaire, Keighley, Haworth and Skipton. Finally, as mentioned by all the guests…. The Yorkshire Tea loaf is a winner! ❤️

We had a great stay at the appartement. Great for a weekend trip. Is on the ground floor and has a step free side entrance that’s accessible for wheelchair users. Lovely location next to the river. Would definitely stay again!

Lovely stay thank you for the help & communication and for letting us stay on short notice.

Lovely place just like the photos clean and simple Great views close to walks for the dogs Really appreciated the tea / coffee milk, cereal etc seems simple but not everyone leaves welcome items ❤️

I stayed at Keith’s place for a few weeks after a nightmare Airbnb situation at a nearby flat with another host. To my luck, Keith had availability for the nights I needed accommodation, and I don’t have enough good things to say about my entire experience there. Keith was super communicative, was quick to respond to my questions, checked in to make sure I was comfortable, and was overall just a lovely person to speak to. The place looks exactly like the photos, but more spacious in person. The location was very walkable to the train station, city centre, and nearby Sainsbury’s. It was a great place to people watch during the day, but became very quiet, yet still safe, in the evening. I’m already looking into booking my next stay here, and would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Leeds!

A perfect place for our weekend - lovely house with plenty of space for the two of us. Absolutely spotless and the table was set up ready for us to use. The location was great for us too - easy to get to, no issues with finding a place to park, and a short walk to local shop and pub. The sound of the river running is really lovely too. Would definitely return.

We had a great stay in this lovely house, which was clean and well-equipped. Beds were comfy with quality bedding, and the bathroom is fab. We loved sitting at the bottom of the garden watching the river and listening to the birds. Henrietta was a friendly and helpful host. It’s a perfect location for exploring the lower Dales.

An absolutely idyllic place to stay. Beautiful peaceful surroundings and wonderful walks from the cottage. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean, very well equipped and very comfortable. Lovely beds and linen. A spacious yet cosy holiday home with lovely decorative touches. The view out of the back of the cottage is fabulous. Feels a million miles away from anyone but actually very close to Ripon and local attractions. Shanie and Tom are welcoming and friendly hosts, yet left us in peace while staying. The welcoming touches to settle in and the information pack provided were really excellent. We also enjoyed using the garden and play area which was fine for kicking a ball around in! Thank you for a lovely few days. I would love to return and would definitely recommend.

Had a night away with my girls and we absolutely loved this place! The interior design is spectacular and we had everything we needed and more. Fabulous communication from Fiona We will definitely be looking to stay here again! Xx

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It was perfect for our needs. It was very clean and comfortable with free parking and a nice private, central position. The bathrooms were lovely and the kitchen had everything we needed to self cater. Finding the property and checking in was easy thanks to John's clear instructions. We loved being right on the river front and enjoyed lots of walks along the river. We recommend Marigold's Cafe and The Ugly Duckling cafe. We went to Mother Shiptons which was quite magical and drove out to Yolk Farm. It was easy to walk into town and up to the castle. We hope to come back one day as we loved Knaresborough and John's property!

I had a fantastic stay at this new-build property. Accessing the keys was straightforward, making check-in hassle-free. The kitchen and bathroom facilities were excellent, with a modern shower that worked perfectly. The place was spotlessly clean, and each of the three single beds was equipped with two towels, which was a thoughtful touch. The heating was great, ensuring the house stayed cosy throughout my stay. Parking right outside the property was incredibly convenient. Prince, the host, was easily contactable and very helpful. Overall, a very pleasant and seamless experience. Highly recommended!

This is a wonderful rental property. It is perfectly situated on the river but only a very short walk from the centre of York. The property is beautiful inside- spacious bedrooms with lovely antique furniture in all the rooms. The kitchen is very well equipped with absolutely everything you could think of. The hosts were exceptionally helpful and kindly left us chocolates , wine and fresh flowers!! This is a wonderful property!

This is a beautiful cottage in a fabulous location which is furnished to a high standard. Definitely one I’m happy to recommend and revisit.

Great accommodation - nice apartment with river view, very nicely furnished, comfortable and central location. Enjoyed our stay - thanks very much

A spacious, sumptuous apartment, finished to a high standard with all mod-cons, and the added bonus of outside space. The sizeable balcony is a great place to enjoy a morning cuppa or a sun-downer whilst enjoying the peace, and listening to the river across from the apartment. An ideal base for exploring Yorkshire. One point to note, take your own shampoo. Although this is listed as an amenity there wasn’t any provided, and we had to pop to a nearby shop to buy some. During a brief chat with the owner he confirmed this is something they don’t provide. For the price point, it would have been nice to have this provided. All-in-all, a great stay and would recommend.

I can not recommend this place enough. It was spotless. It had everything you can possibly think of and need such as extra towls, cushions and iron . All three of the guest that stayed including myself did not stop talking about how we had the best night sleep. Syed was amazing! he was always there on hand happy to answer any questions and made sure we were all happy. We definitely will be booking again! The location was also amazing! plenty of parking available.

Lovely studio apartment with everything you need. Brilliant location, will definitely be back.

My stay was really comfortable, I had no problems during my stay and I had everything expected from the listing. Brilliant hosts and brilliant place :)

A fantastic little apartment. Lots of amenities and very comfortable. We hit a good weather day so it was great to sit outside with a cup of coffee!

The flat was in a wonderful place - very easy to find. We love the bar down the street, The Slip Inn, and easy to get to from the train station. It's close to Shambles market and the old town and the Main Street on this side of the river too. The host, Olivia, was a great communicator, very helpful and quick to respond to questions. It was clean, had everything you needed for a comfortable stay with all cleaning and cooking products. It was just right for a couple. I recommend it!

Helen is an amazing host who answered any questions I had very quickly - even told me where her very comfy sofa was from! The location was perfect and the place was spotless! The only thing worth mentioning is that one of the bedrooms had two pillows for each person and the other bedroom only had one pillow each - unless I missed something! But apart from that, the beds were super duper comfy and it was all lovely !
