  We've had such a lovely stay in this home, thank you so much! Very clean and well appointed. Of course it's the best location we could ask for, especially with two little train enthusiasts. We've enjoyed evening strolls to the engine sheds to see the steam engines being put to sleep, walks on the old tracks in many directions (to Beck Hole was our favourite) and of course a ride on the train to Goathland. For food, we've enjoyed cake at the Old School Coffee Shop, great curd tarts and Pizza on Monday evenings. Also a quick drive to Sleights to stop at Radfords the Butchers and Bothams of course. I believe we visited a waterfall each day, each unique and memorable (mostly memorable for the journey to get close to them!). Make sure to take the long route to Falling Foss. Great WIFI, great washer dryer, comfy beds - we've slept so well! Fast smart TV. Brill parking space. Extremely happy first guests!! Thank you.

  I have given the property information a score of 2 purely because of the parking information. It has as the website states "off-street" parking for which scratch cards are issued, what it doesn't tell you is that the "off-street" parking is about a 15 minute walk from the property and that whilst you can get to the property by driving along Church Street this is a very tight cobbled street for which vehicular access is very restricted to certain days and times and parking outside for any period of time for off loading luggage etc would block the street. I really feel this should be made clearer on the website as should you be on your own with small children and dogs this could be quite stressful and not easy to manage. Apart from that the cottage is lovely with amazing views and couldn't fault it.

  Absolutely fantastic little cottage in a great location.This is the second time we have been to this cottage and would go again. Fantastic property , in a great location. Lovely welcoming pack with milk, biscuits etc. Very clean. Had everything we needed. Wonderful view from attic bedroom. Our car had a flat battery when it was time to leave and I didn t think we would be able to vacate the property by 10am. I rang the Whitby office and they were very friendly - said they would delay the cleaner but just to keep them posted ( the AA was on the way). We did leave on time as it happened, and when I ring to say we had vacated the property, again was met with a friendly voice, grateful we d rung and wished us luck for our journey home. Thank you for this reaction it helped in a stressful situation.

  Grosmont is a lovely place to stay especially in Badgers Rest. I recommend Dalby forest for kids. It has a climbing course, park, gift shop, cafe and mountain biking. Whitby is also lovely to go on the train and get fish and chips and then go the the Abbey with 199 steps. Pickering and Goathland were good. In Goathland there is a great park for kids. We also enjoyed the station, right outside our doorstep. We loved going out for dinner in really nice places. We recommend the Fox and Rabbit at Lockton to eat. Every time we went there it was always really good. If you like going out for walks I would recommend going from here to Beck Hole. It's about an hour and once you get there there's a pub and a sweet shop. If I have to say I really recommend this place for holidays.

  We've thoroughly enjoyed our time at Badgers Rest. It's been great being so close to the railway and the year long ticket has allowed us to get out and about all week without using the car. Some great local walks, and plenty of steam trains, including the unexpected blessing of Sir Nigel Crossley, make a great combination. The engine shed was fascinating to see, especially if you like watching the end of the day "putting the engine to bed process". Well equipped and comfortable cottage, thank you especially for the welcome gifts and local information. Both Whitby & Pickering were worth the visit as were walks around Goathland and along the Esk Valley Trail to Whitby. With an annual pass for the railway we hope to visit again soon.
