Tucked beneath a leafy canopy that’s wrapped inside York’s medieval walls, Middletons is a collection of luxurious accommodation spread across six historical listed buildings, including Chaplin House, Cromwell House and Lady Anne House, which is a fine example of Georgian architecture. Boutique design elegantly blends with original features to retain all the period charm of the buildings and the city itself. And being just a stroll from the centre of York and the River Ouse, Middletons is in a perfect location for a city break.

Taking inspiration from the Yorkshire countryside, the chefs at Middletons rustle up vibrant plates of food that let the flavours of nature’s finest ingredients shine through. The restaurant is no less impressive with large timber beams, exposed brickwork and parquet flooring. The relaxed ambience goes hand in hand with city chic design, creating the perfect setting for dining in York.

56 stylish bedrooms are sprinkled throughout six beautiful buildings that make up Middletons. From country-style cottage rooms to the seriously suave Heritage Suite, each one has been meticulously designed - think retro Roberts radios, oversized headboards, sink-into mattresses and tactile fabrics. The finer details don’t go unmissed either with fresh milk and homemade biscuits adding the finishing touches to your stay.

You couldn’t find a better location for enjoying a York city break. Away from the crowds in a sleepy residential area yet a short stroll from the magnificent York Minster, Middletons has found the perfect balance. Explore the medieval cobbled streets and half-timbered buildings of the Shambles or head along the riverside to the lungs of the city at Rowntree Park.
