Maureen form Glasgow Couple United Kingdom Stayed: 25/04/2012 - 29/04/2012	10 We had 3 nights in Chelmford Place Guest House and it was just a perfect experience - one of our days was wet and we'd been on a historic walk of the city and were damp and chilled, so we just walked back 'home' for a shower and a cuppa in our room - with a biscuit - all provided! Fresh towels every day in spite of our Aberdonian pleas not to bother and the breakfast....we HAD to walk miles every day to walk off the breakfasts which are so generous and perfectly cooked...waking up to the smell of grilling bacon is now something on my wish-lst! Wendy & Nigel are perfect hosts - nothing is too much trouble and when I said I was off to have a cuppa when we arrived, Wendy immediately went to get me fresh milk to have with my tea instead of the perfectly good tubes of milk already in the bedroom. The breakfast room is lovely and bright and fresh and we had a very sociable time chatting to the other guests - we really can't praise this B&B enough - our trip to York was ideal and Wendy & Nige
Joan Single Person United Kingdom	10 Everything about 85 Fulford Road was fantastic. My double room which I was using for single occupancy was very comfortable, well furnished and well decorated, with ensuite bathroom. Ample food choices for breakfast and a very comfortable dining room. Nigel and Wendy were excellent hosts. Being able to park outside was certainly a bonus as it was just a short walk into centre of York. I would have no hesitation in recommending this Guest House and next time I'm in York I will definitely book there
Mr & Mrs Rmassoudi Couple United States Stayed: 06/05/2012 - 08/05/2012	10 We were greeted by the owner, given a brief tour, asked if we needed any brochures, directions and shown to our room. The Full English breakfast was delicious. The owners were helpful and very friendly and so were the other guests. My first experience in a B & B, so I will try again
Couple United Kingdom	10 highly recommend.... Chelmsford Place. Nigel and Wendy are the friendliest hosts Comfortable beds and rooms A good choice for breakfast and only a short walk into York.
Mr & Mrs Turner Couple United Kingdom Stayed: 13/04/2012 - 14/04/2012	10 We had a great stay from the 13th/15th April 2012 for my birthday. Nigel and Wendy were most helpful with the local information and telling us which local pubs and restaurants were best...... Breakfast was fab. Thank you so much. x Stayed April 2012, travelled with friends

About York
Chelmsford Place makes an ideal base from which to explore York's city streets, which are packed with places of interest with local transport being easily available if you have arrived by train/coach.

Best known of all is the world famous York Minster, the largest Gothic Cathedral north of the alps, and one of the finest in Europe.

View the York Pass site for savings on many attractions.

But there's so much more as well, including the city walls, first built in the fourteenth century, for you to walk around.

York Castle Museum, where you can find out how life was lived in York in the bygone years.

There is plenty to interest the whole family at the National Railway Museum, which was recently expanded & is the largest railway museum in the world.

There are also a host of guided walks to show the visitor the hidden corners of the city, including its famous `snickleways` (hidden streets) and many different Ghost Walks are available.

Just a short drive from Chelmsford Place is the championship-standard Fulford Golf Course with the York University and Designer Outlet Centre just a few minutes away as well.

York Race Course is one of the leading tracks in the country, sometimes known as 'The Ascot of the North', and is within easy reach of the Guest House.

Open top double decker buses run regular tours of the city York Bus Tours as do the cruise boats along the river, Yorkboat so it's easy to see all the sites whether or not you arrive by car.

Beyond York itself, there are a host of attractive towns and houses worthy of a visit. Especially well-known is the magnificent Castle Howard, where Brideshead Revisited was filmed.

The North York's Moors Railway (famous for 'Heartbeat') runs original old steam trains operating a regular passenger/dining service from Pickering to Whitby via Goathland.

There's so much to see and do in York and the surrounding area, you'll be spoilt for choice !!

Family Visit United States Stayed: 18/09/2011 - 22/09/2011	10 Chelmsford Place was our home base for six days while in York. The room was great and Nigel and Wendy were personable and friendly. Nigel never disappointed with his fantastic mushrooms for order on the breakfast menu (I later found out that the secret is all the butter they are sauteed in). I will miss waking up to the smell of breakfast every morning. Thank you both so much!

Kevin Patrick Family Visit United Kingdom	10 We stayed here as a family (myself, husband and 9yr old daughter) in an ensuite family room. Arriving well before noon was no problem and we were shown to our room straight away. It was spacious and very very clean, . The Chelmsford is situated about an 8-10 min walk from the city centre either by the pretty riverside walk or along the main road which is ideal in my opinion as I would not want the noise of staying in the centre. Breakfast was very nice, plenty of cereals to choose from and as much toast and fruit juice as you like, if you want more, just ask, they don't mind in the least, the cooked breakfast was always piping hot. All in all, a very pleasant stay, would stay here again and would have no hesitation in recommending to others. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful too.
Maria Single Person United Kingdom Stayed: 01/08/2011 - 04/08/2011	10 I decided to stay in this b&b after reading the reviews. They were right! One of the best guest houses I've been. Very clean and quiet. The breakfast was excellent and Nigel and Wendy are very helpful and friendly. Good location too - near the city centre and the University of York. I'd definitely stay there again next time I visit York.

R Tracey Family Visit United States Stayed: 20/04/2011 - 26/04/2011	10 We just returned from five nights at the Chelmsford Place Guest House in York while visiting our daughter studying at the University of York. We could not have found more delightful and welcoming hosts, cleaner rooms, or a more pleasant breakfast to start the day. There is a very pleasant little pub across the street and a short walk to the City Centre. (We would recommend walking to City Centre along the river one block from the guest house!) Nigel and Wendy were very welcoming and helpful without being too intrusive. The cost was most reasonable for the accomodation. I would never stay anywhere else when visiting York.
