What our guests are saying about us

John L – 6 days ago

Fantastic Stay At Westergate House
Great hosts with a fantastic guest house,would recommend to anyone planning to stay in the York area. The property is beautifully presented and exceptionally clean. Breakfast was wonderful, with quality ingredients. The property is outside York, but there is a bus stop a few yards away with service to the city centre every 15 minutes, making it the perfect base for a visit to York when travelling by car.

Lovely place to stay
Had a fantastic few days at Westergate.Lovely hosts, we were spoilt with tasty breakfasts and cakes waiting for us on an evening.Location is fantastic being very close to a park and ride to get into York, which is a very interesting place to visit and not far away from the Dales.
