107 Nunnery Lane - A stylish self catering York holiday home in the centre of York that sleeps up to 6 and has a basement cinema and games room
107 Nunnery Lane - a House of York holiday home gives families, couples and friends a pet friendly self catering York option that sleeps up to 6 people (additional z-bed can be requested for a 6th person for a £30 fee per stay) and is a great choice if you are looking for luxury accommodation in the centre of York.
We pride ourselves on being couples and family friendly and we offer as much as we can to make your stay at 107 an enjoyable one. After a fun day sight seeing you can have drinks in our sunny courtyard or chill out and watch a movie in our basement cinema (it was the original pub cellar and has a low ceiling). For the kids (or the young at heart) we even have a games room with table football.
All guests are greeted with biscuits and everything needed to make a good cuppa. If you are bringing little ones we have a high chair, cot and a variety of games and books available on request.
We always make sure we supply the basics (having ourselves been frustrated by no dishwashing liquid or bin bags at rentals). We have USB charging ports in every room as well as cleaning equipment, store cupboard basics and the bathroom has soap, shower gel and shampoo. We try to take any of the stress out of your stay so you can focus on enjoying the house and magnificent York!
