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.

Badger's Rest is a lovely cottage in a great location in Grosmont. The cottage is very comfortable - beds, sofas, kitchen are all great and although there were just the two of us, it would work very well for six that are catered for.
