Priory House
Luxury apartments in the heart of York
Priory House is a Grade 2 listed building dating from the 18th Century, that started life as two private townhouses which were brought together when the building was sympathetically converted to apartments in 2006. Many of the original features have been retained and we hope that you, like may other guests, will enjoy the mix of these period features and the contemporary decoration and furnishing. Prior to the conversion Priory house was the York office of Relate (what used to be called the Marriage Guidance Council in the UK), if walls had ears!
