Avondale Guest House is situated on the South side of the city, a few hundred metres from the ancient city walls. The 7 minute walk to the City Centre and attractions passes restaurants, shops, and wonderful views of the City from Skeldergate Bridge.

 

 

Directions by Train/Bus

York City Centre is mostly pedestrianised, so why not consider the train or coach services available from most parts of Britain. Trains from London take about 2 hours and from Edinburgh about 2 1/2 hours.

 

The walk from the train station to 'Avondale'

As you come out of the train station turn right and walk over the bridge, follow the road round and go up a slight hill to the traffic lights. Cross straight over the lights and walk down Nunnery Lane (the ancient city wall will be on your left). Stay on the pavement to the right hand side of the road as the road splits at the bottom. As you reach the end of Nunnery Lane turn right and walk past the shops, keep going straight and cross at the lights. Walk a little further and just past the bus stop the Avondale is on your right.
