How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 3 pet-mention guest reviews sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 19 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 8.3/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: October 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet-friendly summary
22 North Parade is a whole house in Bootham, just outside York's city walls, and its appeal for anyone travelling with a dog is that it puts you within walking distance of the centre without putting you inside a hotel. There are no shared corridors or lifts to manage, the front door is your own, and there is parking directly outside. Guests with dogs rate it 4.3/5.
The feature that comes up most is the walled patio at the back. It is secure and enclosed, which means a dog can go out last thing at night without a lead, and that is genuinely hard to find on a city break. Beyond the door, the river walk along the Ouse is a few minutes away and leads into town, so the daily walk doubles as the route to the shops and pubs. Guests with dogs describe the house as properly set up for pets rather than simply permitting them.
Inside, it reads as a comfortable, well-kept holiday home: warm, roomy for its size and stocked with the things that matter on a self-catering week. Bootham has its own pubs and places to eat, so heading into the centre is a choice rather than a necessity.
Two things to know. Check-in is at 4pm, which is late if you have driven a long way with a dog in the car and want to get them settled. And guests have flagged a gap under the front of the cooker, big enough for a small dog to get into and with wires behind it, which is worth blocking off on arrival if you are travelling with a terrier or a puppy. Neither is a dealbreaker, but both are the kind of thing you would rather know in advance.
22 North Parade suits a couple or a small family who want a York break where the dog comes everywhere with them.
