One very different venue for events in York is the Bar Convent, run by a charity and around five minutes walk from the railway station.

The Grade 1 listed Georgian building offers 4 meetings spaces for 10-90, a tiled Victorian entrance hall for receptions and dining, 18 guest-house style bedrooms, 3 en-suite, a tranquil garden area and a licensed cafe offering home-cooked food. Day delegate rates start from £33 and bedrooms from £35.

The Bar Convent is the oldest living convent in England, founded in 1686, and incorporates a museum telling the history.
