This cottage is set in the village of Grosmont in the North York Moors National Park, so it’s a great spot to relax and recharge. Whitby is less than a twenty-minute drive away, and there are plenty of walks on your doorstep – including the Rail Trail over to Goathland. The village pub is just a minute away, so you won't have far to go for a pint. Inside, it’s a bit dated in places, but it's perfectly functional, with space for everyone to relax after all that exploring.

When the sun sets, ghost tours amble through the cobbled streets, revealing the town’s dramatic history. By day it’s all idyllic fishing village vibes, with a hint of Victorian holidays. Colourful cottages that have seen...
