The area

Lavender Cottage is located in the quaint village of Grosmont. Less than 7 miles from the bustling seaside town of Whitby, Grosmont is perfect for those who want to enjoy a retreat in the countryside. Nestled within the North York Moors National Park, you can expect beautiful scenery during your stay.

There are plenty of stunning walks from the cottage, including the 3.5-mile Rail Trail which runs from Grosmont to Goathland. Just 60 metres from the cottage is Grosmont Station which is part of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. This 1952 themed station is the end of the heritage railway where the main rail network begins.

Lavender Cottage is just 50 metres from the local village pub and there is also a convenience store just down the road. Grosmont is home to a bookshop, a model railway and bus shop, and a number of cafes and tea rooms.

The North York Moors and surrounding area has a good network of rail and bus services, serving many of the main towns and villages, plus some fantastic walking and cycling routes if you'd rather get around under your own two feet (or wheels).

If you choose to travel around the area by car, there are many roads which are narrow and shared by other users. Very few of the roads have separate paths so you may well meet a walker, cyclist or horse-rider, so please drive carefully and take care.

“Lavender Cottage is the best cottage in Grosmont for value for money and great comfortable, clean and quality property. It’s located up the hill from the NYMR station and engine sheds. The cafe in the old school house is fabulous. Food is exceptional with view of the railway.”

“Had a great stay at lavender cottage and will hopefully be back in the future. It was very clean, homely and had a lot of what we needed. I will say that only one toilet roll and one cloth wasn’t really enough for a three night stay but other than that the facilities were great. The train station is a stones throw away and we loved getting the steam train into whitby. The old school cafe is also definitely worth a visit. Plenty of walks nearby and things to do. Thank you”

“Ideally situated cottage for visiting North Yorkshire Railway gala event and a trip to see Whitby by train too. Cottage was easy to find, had all the amenities you'd need and a good healthy hill walk at the end of the day. Host was responsive and helpful to queries. Would stay here again.”
