Located perfectly for families who love walking, cycling, or train spotting, this fantastic home sleeping five guests is a welcome retreat in the North York Moors. Grosmont is a popular tourist town as it is one of the stops on the heritage steam railway that runs through North Yorkshire. It also has shops, pubs, tearooms and cafes, all within 200 metres of the property. Hop on the train to the bustling market town of Pickering (17 miles by car) and admire the rolling moors on the journey. If you fancy a day by the beach, take the trip on the train to Whitby on the train or road (8 miles) and enjoy the lovely sandy beach and picturesque views.

Enter this pretty, terraced cottage into the open-plan living space. The kitchen/diner is to one end of the ground floor with everything you need to prepare some breakfast, a picnic for the days out, or rustle up a tasty evening meal. A wonderful coffee machine is provided, too, perfect for morning lattes. The dining table has enough seating for all guests to eat together. Afterwards, get cosy in the characterful lounge which has exposed beams and an electric fire to help warm you up on chilly evenings. Heading upstairs, you will find the three bright and airy bedrooms. Choose from a king-size room, a double bedroom, or the third bedroom which has bunk beds, great for the children of the group. Completing the inside of the property is a contemporary bathroom with a shower over the bath, and WC.

To the front of the property is a patio area with a bistro furniture set. Walking routes that wind into the North York Moors National Park are right on the doorstep, and parking for one car is available at the end of the terraced row.

Very nice cottage, ideally suited for access to the North Yorks Moors Railway at Grosmont, which is literally on the doorstep! There are two excellent pub/restaurants in nearby Egton & Egton Bridge, which are 5-10 mins drive away. The cottage is highly recommended.

Absolutely beautiful hidden gem! Spacious, clean and comfortable home which for a family of 5 can be hard to come by. Welcome pack was greatly appreciated. A stone's throw from the station, pub and shops which was ideal.
