About this property

A delightful, end-terraced character cottage, tucked away in a quiet location in the heart of pretty Grosmont in the North York Moors National Park. Refurbished and decorated to a high standard, this Grosmont cottage is ideal for families and friends who wish to enjoy this beautiful rural area, but within a few minutes' drive of the seaside town of Whitby. Offering spacious and comfortable accommodation in this popular village location, this Grosmont cottage is tastefully furnished in a traditional style, with an inviting sitting room with cosy woodburning stove and a well-equipped kitchen. Outside this Grosmont cottage, access from a shared path leads to a small, sheltered south-facing garden, perfect for relaxing and soaking up the sunshine! A stroll down the road brings you to the terminus of the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway - a trip on this is an absolute must for both young and old! Good village amenities include a local shop, a pub serving food, a tea room and an art gallery. From this Grosmont cottage, there are wonderful walking opportunities, including the old Toll Road which takes you alongside the river to Egton Bridge. A few miles away is Goathland, Heartbeat's 'Aidensfield', well worth a visit, as is the Danby Moors National Park Centre, with its interesting displays and exhibitions. With the stunning moors and pretty inland and coastal villages to explore, this Grosmont cottage is the perfect base for a family holiday.

The charming village of Grosmont is situated at the juncture of the Murk Esk and the River Esk in the middle of the dramatic moors scenery. Characterised by scenic views, steep hills and narrow roads with a miscellany of fields and moorland expanses, Grosmont is the home of the famous North York Moors Steam Railway and has a 1952 style British Rail station and engine sheds, where the trains receive much needed restoration. The railway has been run by enthusiasts since 1973 and takes around 200,000 passengers a year on its scenic journey through the stunning countryside. The village has a general store, café, pub and post office and is well placed for exploring the wider area, making this a fabulous base for an unforgettable holiday.
