Grosmont 1.5 miles.
This lovely end-terrace cottage is nestled in the beautiful Esk Valley and surrounded by delightful scenery within the North York Moors National Park.
This is a superb base whether you love to walk, tour, cycle or just to relax within this tranquil setting.
The cottage has a lovely bright and spacious dining kitchen with a comfy sofa which is the perfect spot for keeping the cook company.
The sitting room offers views of the valley together with the comforting glow of a real fire, and there is a firm, original 1930 horsehair sofa in this room.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms together with a family bathroom and a ground floor cloakroom.
Outside the cottage is a garden where you can relax with a refreshing drink whilst enjoying the quietness of the countryside.
The cottage is the perfect spot for trainspotting and the sight and sound of a steam train approaching is very emotive; a great thrill for every age.
The local village of Grosmont was once a hive of industry due to the discovery of ironstone in 1836 and the cottage was built for a miner and his family.
Nowadays, this traditional village is busy with tourists catching a glimpse of one of the nostalgic steam trains on the popular heritage North Yorkshire Moors Railway which featured in the Harry Potter films.
Whitby is a mere nine miles away and offers the delights of a seaside town from building sandcastles, climbing the 199 steps to its Abbey and partaking of the great British tradition of fish and chips.
A lovely holiday cottage in a fabulous area.
