  : Holgate Hideaway was very clean, well appointed and stylish. Its location was perfect for visiting York city centre. Completely dog-friendly. The facilities included a spacious bathroom and beautiful kitchen with everything we needed. The hot tub was a lovely bonus. We were so impressed when the hot tub developed a fault, the owner arrived quickly and replaced it. Thanks so much.
  : We completely loved our stay and have already recommended it to family and friends.

  : This apartment has been very well thought out and beautifully furnished. There was everything you could think of provided to make your stay cosy and comfortable and it was spotless. The location is great, just a short walk to the main attractions of York. The hot tub was perfect for winding down after a day walking around the city. We had the electric trip one morning and couldn't locate the trip switches. We called the agency and straight away they got us up and running again! We would definitely recommend staying here. Thank you Holgate Hideaway!
  : Only criticisms I would make, is that we felt the hot tub had an odd smell to it after a few uses. I did speak to the agency after our stay and mentioned it as I wondered if it needed some attention, however, they assured me that it was regularly checked and cleaned after each stay etc (it did look clean..it was just a strange smell when the pump was activated.) They did also say that had we mentioned it during our stay they would have sent someone out straight away to look at it. So maybe if any one else experiences this make sure you contact the agency straight away. Another slightly negative point which isn't mentioned in the property listing is that directly above the property is what we think may be student accomodation. Not a massive problem, it's just that you do hear the odd alarm clock first thing in the morning and people walking up and down the stairs and furniture being moved...sounds you expect to hear in a hotel. Apart from this the property is very peaceful especially considering you're so close to the city and on a main road.

  : The hot tub was the highlight. It was very easy to use. Also, the place was very warm and nicely decorated. Everything that you could possibly need in a place, was provided so did not need to bring very much!
  : -Poor reception and video quality, even with their Wi-Fi -House being on the main street so lots of vehicles going by -Upstairs neighbours were a little noisy during the nights
