Directions to 71 Micklegate
The best way into York for Micklegate is to stay on the A64 from the A1, and follow the signs for York Race Course, which is signposted off the A64 as York A1036. This will take you straight into York past the Race Course (which will be on your right), keep going until you see the city walls in front of you, the gate you see at the junction is Micklegate Bar (the gateways are called bars Viking word for gate) go straight through and about 150m on your right you will see Trinity Lane, and just after this is our office and #71 Micklegate.
PARKING
There is no parking with the apartments on Micklegate, you can park outside on a meter which is 40p for œ hr, which will be ok for dropping any luggage off, but we would recommend using either the Nunnery Lane carpark (just outside the walls and to the right of Micklegate Bar as you look at it driving into the city), or the long stay carpark at the train station, which is just the other side of this, both of them a just few minutes walk away from the apartment.
KEYBOX
If our office is open you will be able to check in with us, if not, your keys will be in the keybox at the back of the building. Walk down Trinity Lane, and about 20m on your left is a set of wooden double gates with a pedestrian gate on the left hand side. Enter the code 2058z and go through this gate, through the courtyard around to the left and you will see three keyboxes next to the back door, with the apartment numbers marked.
KEY INSTRUCTIONS
Your key will open both the front and back doors of the house and your apartment door, which is at the top of the main staircase on your right.
Please ensure you keep the back gate closed and the front and back doors of the main house locked.
Easy walk to train as well as the city center. Lots of cute coffee shop on the road and other delicious restaurants nearby. Nice and quiet and very well equipped apartment. Highly recommend it!!
Very nice property but if we had arrived after the office had been closed, we would not have been able to get into the property. The instructions provided gave us the code for the gate but not the key safe! Please take note and ensure instructions are correct.
Lots of noise from upstairs flat, to be expected as an old property but not great if you have gone away for R & R.
Organised booking for long weekend through Wheelwrghts, very good experience throughout. Situated 10 min walk from station, 6 min walk into city centre. Beautiful building, lovely clean well decorated spacious apartment, well stocked kitchen. Would stay again, highly recom end.
