Live and rent in York

As one of Britain’s finest walled cities, York offers a fine array of historic attractions including museums, towers and dungeons to name but a few! Tourists flock in their thousands each year to experience the delight of northern Europe’s largest Gothic cathedral, the York Minster. Both the Yorvik Viking Centre and the National Railway Museum can also claim their places as firm favourites on the ‘not-to-be-missed’ list of places to visit.  Commuting to other major cities such as Leeds (under half an hour) and London (less than two hours by train) makes York ideally suited for business travel.

 

If you are looking for a cultural place to live then York is an inspirational place to live. Renowned for its exquisite architecture, tangle of quaint cobbled streets, York has developed a flourishing, cutting-edge scene. A city of contrasts and exciting discoveries, York is a place where the old encompasses the new and the commonplace meets with the unexpected. Broaden your mind with a visit to world class museums or a variety of festivals held throughout the year catering for all ages and interests.

 

The City is also home to one of the North’s most prestigious Universities and, in the recently published league tables, York College ranks in the top ten highest scoring Further Education colleges in the country. Together with much sought-after private schools, such as the Mount and St Peters, York is truly the centre for excellence as far as education is concerned.  York offers a vibrant and cosmopolitan lifestyle and boasts an enviable range of shops, designer boutiques, restaurants, wine bars, theatres and cinema’s, whilst only a short drive to the picturesque North York Moors and East Coast.

 

Our office mainly deals with corporate tenants, professionals and families.
