Grays Court, North Yorkshire

Description: Grays Court

Nestled in the shadow of York Minster, Grays Court is a family-owned boutique hotel, situated in a painstakingly preserved and restored historic manor house, part of which was originally built in 1080. This charming property provides luxury accommodation and fine cuisine in a matchless heritage setting.

Just footsteps from York Minster, Grays Court is ideally placed for relaxing, intimate stays in York, either for business or pleasure. Surrounded by the city walls, the hotel boasts a charming, picturesque garden, and has just nine individually designed and decorated rooms, most with views of the historic city and York Minster. Public areas range from the Jacobean oak-panelled Long Gallery to the 16th century Minster Room, the Library, and the striking Bow Room, the hotel's classic restaurant.

The Bow Room is open daily, and serves a delicious range of menus based on the finest local, seasonal, market and garden-fresh produce from 'God's Own Country'. The hotel's wine list includes a carefully selected range of fine wines from around the world, including Nyetimber, one of the very finest English sparkling wines.
