Hi, my name's Holly! I grew up in a little village near London and slowly made my way North until I met my husband. We took a trip to York, and between strolling down the Shambles and an afternoon tea at Betty’s cafe, we had already decided to move to York. After a career in media, I was able to fulfil my dream of becoming a host so I could give people from all over the world a beautiful place to call home whilst they discover York for themselves. In my spare time I love to travel, and I especially love sampling local cuisine - particularly the sweet stuff! When I’m not collecting airline points, I’m a very homely person and you’ll often find me watching the latest crime drama, or one of my favourite musicals for the billionth time. Often, though, I'm keeping my finger on the pulse of York, making sure I sample every new café and restaurant. Hey, someone’s got to do it.

The Botanist's Hideout is your luxury retreat in the heart of beautiful York. Located in the historic Rowntree Wharf building on the River Foss, this private luxury apartment has a view of the river and a communal riverside garden where you can unwind. York city centre is just a stroll around the corner with the Shambles being located only a 5-minute walk away. Please note: This property is equipped with a device that monitors noise levels. It does NOT record any sound or conversations; I take the privacy of my guests very seriously. The device's only purpose is to detect parties, which are not permitted at this property. Thanks for your understanding.

Free parking is provided for the duration of your stay in the multi-storey car park adjacent to the apartment.
