The Dairy is a lovingly restored and upgraded Victorian town house, retaining its character and original features.
Originally a family home and joinery business, the property was built in 1890. It was then purchased by the Trapp family and became a town dairy, selling milk, ice cream and Yorkshire curd. The Dairy was then sold and converted into a guest house in 1978. Situated in central York, we are just 300 yards south of the medieval city walls and an easy stroll to York's many attractions and museums. Each individually styled room has a colour television, CD/cassette player, hot drink facilities, hairdryer and alarm clock. In addition, the personal touches include toiletries and information folders. Some rooms also have ceiling fans.
