Beautiful and walkable

Guests say this area is scenic and it’s easy to get around.
Sometimes you want a little more than a home from home. Sometimes you want to spend time in a whimsical woodland setting, with golden birds in the trees, whilst sipping chocolate orange tea. Mary Tuke is a treehouse within an apartment within a city.

With free parking and wifi, a meticulous focus upon cleanliness, and a commitment to social responsibility, Mary Tuke is the ideal apartment for those working away from home, or enjoying a vacation in iconic York.

The space
Located within Rowntree Wharf, a listed Victorian building on the river Foss, and significant York landmark, that was once Rowntree’s cocoa bean warehouse, Mary Tuke is the ideal space for those wishing to explore the city, or to enjoy a cosy night in.

Mary Tuke is one of three individually designed studio apartments by I Should Cocoa York, situated within York’s historic city walls.

Complete with free on-site car parking, this generous studio apartment provides easy access to the city’s many tourist attractions, bars, and restaurants, whilst offering guests a peaceful riverside haven to retreat to at the end of a busy day.

The apartment benefits from a double bed, with 100% Egyptian cotton linen, comfortable seating area, stylish shower room, and well equipped kitchen.

The apartment also provides free wifi, ideal for those visiting for work, a Bluetooth speaker, and a Smart TV, great for those cosy nights in.

Other things to note
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
We want our guests to feel at home and have taken every opportunity to ensure that this is a safe and welcoming environment.

Cleanliness is one of our strengths, just look at our scores! We have signed-up to Airbnb's 5 step enhanced cleaning protocol. We thoroughly clean and sanitise every room, and carry out quality checks before every arrival.

From Fairtrade sugar to bamboo toilet paper, we take pride in providing our guests with ethically sourced, environmentally friendly, products that are good for you, and our planet.

All of the products provided in your apartment are free from animal products and have not been tested on animals. To ensure that we provide the best possible products for our guests we take care to work with suppliers that understand, and respect, our values.

LOCAL & INDEPENDENT
As a local independent business it is important to us that we support other local independents. York, and Yorkshire, just wouldn’t be the same without them. In the apartment you will find top tips for our favourite independents, along with the Indy York City Map so that you can find your own favourites along the way.

Independent businesses offer some of the most exciting products around. We have worked with independents in Yorkshire to provide you with those extra treats that make a break that bit more memorable, with a unique, custom blend, chocolate orange tea, from Birdhouse Tea Company, and single origin speciality coffees from North Star Coffee Roasters.

TAILORED TO YOU
Sometimes you want to make a stay extra special. If you are coming to us for a special occasion, or just want to give someone a treat, let us know and we’ll work with you to add that special something. From fresh flowers to local beers, we can tailor a gift to send just the right message.

Neighborhood highlights

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
Tucked away in a quiet riverside location, but within just a few minutes walk of the city centre, Mary Tuke is the ideal location for those wishing to enjoy the best that York has to offer. With Waitrose, M&S, and Morrisons supermarkets just a 7 minute walk away, and the local bars and restaurants of Fossgate just as close, it’s easy to have a quiet night in, an intimate restaurant experience, or a few drinks in a lively local bar.

The major attractions of York are also close by. You can start your walk around the medieval city walls just a few steps from the apartment, or you can take a 15 minute stroll along the streets of York to the magnificent York Minster, whilst the Jorvik Viking Centre is just an 8 minutes walk, taking in the sights of The Shambles along the way.

Lives in York, United Kingdom
Having travelled extensively throughout Europe, we wanted to create a space that we would want to stay in. As vegans, and beer lovers, we have always found ourselves straying from the well trodden tourist path in search of local food and drink experiences. We love to walk the backstreets of great cities and discover their forgotten corners. Our aim is to create a base that will help others to discover a ‘locals’ York. A York of snickleways, hidden treasures, and spectacular views. We hope you enjoy ‘our’ York.
