🍂 When York takes a breath…

When September arrives and the school holidays come to an end, the city feels a little different.

The streets are quieter. There’s more time to wander, to look up at the beautiful architecture, explore the city walls, find a tucked-away café or simply take your time discovering York’s history stretching back more than 2,000 years.

It’s still the same wonderful city - just at a gentler pace. ❤️

And perhaps September is the perfect little window to enjoy York before the magic (and madness!) of the amazing York Christmas markets arrives. 🎄✨

So, if York has been on your list for a while, maybe early autumn is the time to discover it. www.wheelwrightsyork.com

Something rather special is happening today…

The Moon will pass in front of the Sun, creating a spectacular solar eclipse and York is a pretty wonderful place to experience it.

The eclipse will begin around 6:12pm, reaching its maximum at approximately 7:16pm, when around 92% of the Sun will be covered.

With York’s historic skyline, beautiful architecture and plenty of open spaces to take in the evening sky, it could be a memorable time to simply slow down, look up and enjoy something a little extraordinary.

If you’re visiting York don’t miss the chance to experience this rare celestial event.
Just remember: never look directly at the Sun without proper solar viewing protection.

We'd love to hear from you or see any photos and if the eclipse inspires you to spend a little more time exploring this wonderful city, take a look at what we have to offer at www.wheelwrightsyork.com

Happy Yorkshire Day!

Today we're celebrating everything we love about Yorkshire – its rich history, beautiful landscapes, welcoming communities and, of course, the timeless charm of York.

There's something special about spending a day wandering the city's cobbled streets, discovering hidden snickelways, enjoying a riverside stroll and soaking up centuries of history around every corner.

At Wheelwrights, our collection of historic homes sits right in the heart of the city, giving visitors the chance to experience York's heritage while creating memories of their own. www.wheelwrightsyork.com

Fancy a dance with Mr Darcy?

Step back in time this August as the York Georgian Festival returns to York.

From 6th–10th August, York will celebrate its elegant Georgian heritage with a programme of guided walks, fascinating talks, live performances and special events, offering a glimpse into life in the 18th century.

It's the perfect opportunity to see a different side of York - beyond the medieval streets and Viking history - and discover the stories, architecture and people that shaped this beautiful city.

Stay at Wheelwrights and experience York's rich history from the heart of the city. After a day exploring the festival, return to one of our beautifully restored historic homes and soak up the character that makes York so special. www.wheelwrightsyork.com

Are you planning a visit to the Georgian Festival this summer?
