“We had an amazing week in this property and will be returning very soon we hope.”

Could not fault it in anyway or form.

“Excellent and well presented.”

Made special by the homely welcoming touches like tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. A very very light, airy delightful property. Information provided by the owners about the history not only of the property but the local area was very interesting. Would certainly revisit and recommend to others.

“We have had a wonderful week at Limber View!”

The cottage is warm and cozy and has spectacular views of the North Yorkshire landscape! Very handy for our many explorations of this stunning area! We had a fantastic day with the NYMR and loved our visits to the coast! Thank you so much for the cake and biscuits! We have enjoyed our stay in your gorgeous cottage!

“We had a wonderful holiday with friends at Limber View.”

The property was everything we hoped it would be, very comfortable, warm and clean. It was well furnished and the kitchen was well provided including freezer, dishwasher, microwave etc. The property was ideally located for walking in the moors and dales, sight seeing and the North York Moors Heritage Railway. It was also close enough to the coast. We had a great holiday.

Anthony September 2022

“The cottage is excellent and had everything we needed.”

The only thing that wasn't mentioned by Sykes and is important is the very steep hill which made it impossible for us to walk to the village shop and pub.

David July 2022

“I had a an amazing week at Lumber View.”

What a beautiful and relaxing cottage; I had everything I could have needed (and more). The cottage was very spacious and well equipped. All the fixtures and fittings were of a very high standard. The kitchen was well equipped. It was easy to get to and a good centre to explore the local area. It was lovely to be greeted with some goodies, including milk, cake and biscuits. Thank you for a lovely stay !

“Great cottage with a beautiful view.”

Excellently sited for amenities. Clean and comfortable. Good parking for one vehicle. One drawback was a two slice toaster when 4 people staying.

- Hazel Farrow, July 2022
Terence June 2022

“A really quality property in every way.”

Very very clean and beautifully presented, in a word faultless. Parking was not a problem for us but if you had 4 people staying with 2 cars you may find it could be.

- Terence, June 2022
Marlene June 2022

“Our stay at Limber View was excellent the place was clean and welcoming with a drink and cake provided.”

The place was fully equiped with everything you needed. The only hic-up being parking for only one car that was not so much the issue but finding a safe place to park the second car for a week. We felt the village car park was not 100% safe being on the edge of the village. We did find a more safe place to park after speaking to the staff at the Steam Railway Station they said we could park in their carpar, no need to get a daily ticket just give a donation to the railway. One car parked safely for the week we went on to have a great holiday. Views from the house were great and the many places visited. We have been to the North Yorkshire Moors for hoildays many times but we still found places and narrow lanes, fords. In all a wonderful holiday, we would visit again.

“Excellent two bedroom accommodation close to Whitby in a special valley.”

All facilities of a high standard, very clean and nothing lacking. Large lounge windows with splendid view across the valley. Would certainly make a return visit it holidaying again in the area.

“Excellent base to explore the area.”

We managed Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay, Scarborough, Sandsend, Malton, Durham, York and Helmsley in the week we were there. Well appointed holiady cottage with a great kitchen area, comfortable bedrooms/lounge and bathrooms aplenty. Grosmont is lovely too, but only thing to be wary of is if you don't like driving down narrow/twisty roads, this place probably isn't for you! If you can handle that, it's a truly wonderful place to stay. The welcome gifts from the owners (cake, milk, wine - three life essentials obviously) was also a very thoughtful touch. View from the front is also spectacular. We definitely want to explore the area more (discovered some family links on the Yorkshire/Durham borders), so when we do get back up to visit the area, would be delighted to stay here again.

“Limber View is a lovely well appointed cottage, well equipped, well decorated and stunning views- but with one major problem - the bed.”

The bed is described as king size but is actually a small double. Worse, it very uncomfortable and mattress is of poor quality. We had achy backs and did not sleep well - a major component of a holiday. We would love to stay in this cottage again but would not do so unless there was new mattresses. The owner did provide a single foam mattress topper for us which marginally improved things but did not mask the real problem of the mattress. Such a shame when everything else was of high quality.

Sarah September 2021

“Limber View is beautifully appointed and very well equipped.”

It is decorated and furnished to a very high standard and it was a perfect home-from-home for us. It's in a very peaceful location and it was lovely to lie in bed and listen to the owls at night. Whilst staying in Grosmont, we visited the following locations: Falling Foss Waterfall and Tea Garden Mallyan Spout Waterfall Goathland Thirsk Whitby & Whitby Abbey Staithes Runswick Bay Robin Hood's Bay The only information that may have been helpful is where to find the nearest petrol station and supermarket. We found them easily with our mobile phones but the mobile signal and roaming internet access is not always reliable when out and about and we didn't see many petrol stations in the area.

- Sarah, September 2021
Wendy July 2021

“The cottage was very well equipped and had lovely views.”

Being close to the steam trains was a bonus . We did find the bed a bit too firm and missed the cushions on the kitchen benches , but these should be there now . The owner was very helpful when we needed help printing tickets for our RSPB boat trip at Bridlington , (that is to be recommended.!) We enjoyed doing alms in this beautiful part of Yorkshire .

- Wendy, July 2021
Carolyn June 2021

“We very much enjoyed our week at Limber View.”

The cottage was very well appointed and comfortable. Improvements would be some small vegetable peeling knives, otherwise everything else was perfect. Carolyn Higginson

“Thanks to the gentleman who dealt with my call when we locked ourselves out.”

Very friendly and capable. Rang back as promised and arranged for the owner to be contacted as promised. Thanks again in rescuing what could have been a disastrous event!

- Neil, May 2021
Margaret May 2021

“Because of Covid19 some soft furnishings had been removed but that did not detract from the general cosiness of the cottage.”

The cottage was very well equipped and had everything we needed plus a big thank you to the owners for the welcoming bottle of wine, cake, milk, tea and coffee. The flowers also were a lovely touch. Grosmont a good location for easy access to coast and countrside. The only disappointment was that the steam trains were not running for passengers until 17 May but we did manage to see them in action getting ready for their first trip out in many months.

“Beautiful property overlooking village of Grosmont.”

Location perfect for visiting Whitby it North York Moors

- Rob, August 2020
Rachel August 2020

“Limber View is a gorgeous holiday cottage with everything you need.”

Highly recommended for a family of four wanting to visit the area. The place was cleaned to the new Covid standard and the extra measures put in place meant we felt very safe and well cared for. Amazing views from the cottage and the steam train running daily from the village. The cottage is perfectly located for visiting Whitby and the surrounding coastline and of course Dalby forest. Take your walking shoes and bikes!

“We have had a lovely stay here at Limber View!”

We enjoyed a walk to Goathland along the old rail trail and caught the train back. Lovely days out at Falling Foss, Robin Hood's Bay and Runswick Bay. We look forward to staying again soon. Thank you for the lovely flowers, wine and cakes!!!

Mike and Lynda, May 2019 May 2019

“Thank you so much for making our holiday even more special by taking such care to create a tastefully, refurbished, well-equipped 'home from home' which we have looked forward to returning to every day!”

As well as enjoying fantastic weather, we have also been on some very beautiful scenic walks (copies of which we have left should any of your future guests be interested). We will definitely be taking some wonderful memories back to Dorest with us in this 'land of contrasts'! Thank you too for our very welcome complimentary gifts of milk, wine and delicious Yorkshire curt tarts. To sum up - An absolutely fantastic place to stay in every way!

The Fisher Family, September 2018 Sep 2018

“We have had another lovely stay at Limber View.”

Travelled very light this time as cottage is so well-equipped. Only a short say but enjoyed he walk back from Goathland Station - via the Old School House Cafe which does lovely food and cakes. Can recommend Robin Hood Bay for a lovely long walk and Whitby is a wonderful place for a wander. Lots of beautiful scenery to photograph/paint. The Station Tavern does a lovely meat pie and The Station does a good cheap and cheerful breakfast. All in all a wonderful relaxing break. Thank you for a lovely stay and the welcome package. (Magpie Cafe in Whitby does lovely fish and chips - but it does get busy!)
