Company info

Steve & I moved to York in 2012 where we ran a public house with 8 letting rooms, bar and restaurant after 10 years of being in this business we decided that we would like to live permanently in the fabulous city of York and in 2013 we bought the Chelmsford Place Guest House, we are always refurbishing the guest house, and have recently completed the dining room, in January 2016 we will be having a renovation in the Hall, stairs and landing. We love the guest house and meeting lots of different people (characters) and hope to be in this employment for a number of years.

Property info

We are a very small Victorian Guest House with just 6 guest rooms, we hope that we are able to give a more personal touch, We always like to touch base with our guests to ensure that all is to their requirements and we are available most of the time.
