    “River view is a lovely property, tasteful decor and excellent location.”

    It was such a shame that - We carefully follows instructions for radiators but couldn’t get any radiators working. The bathroom door would not fasten and even when the door was pushed it swung open, which was very inconvenient. We both tried to get shower to work but we could not. It was stuck. So we had no shower. So these problems were very inconvenient during our stay.

    I am sorry to hear that you had a few problems. In such a situation it is probably worth contacting Yorkshire Coastal Cottages for help, We have checked the radiators and they are working properly as is the shower. The bathroom door needs to have the bolt fastened to stay shut otherwise as you say it can swing open. I hope these issues did not spoil your stay too much. Property Owner

The property

Riverbank View is a delightful, two-bedroom cottage enjoying magnificent riverside views in the lovely village of Grosmont, North Yorkshire.

In the middle of the North York Moors National Park, close to Grosmont's shops and restaurants, Riverbank View provides a homely place for up to four visitors, looking to enjoy a self-catering stay.

Take advantage of a private, off-road parking area, along with an EV charger, before entering your new home away from home.

Enter the traditionally decorated living/dining room, which has access to the private balcony, original beams, seating for four at the table, a roaring woodburning stove, and plush sofas.

Prepare delicious dishes in the kitchen, before gathering outside with the River Esk as your backdrop; take the wonderful opportunity to observe the steam trains, crossing over the nearby bridge from the North Yorkshire Moors Railway.

Discover two elegant bedrooms, including a double and a twin, before waking up to a revitalising shower in the bathroom.

From your riverbank vantage point, take in the scenery before venturing into the village to buy the necessities, have brunch at Old School Coffee Shop, or a drink at The Station Tavern.

Riverbank View rests near fabulous transport links, with Grosmont Station a short walk away, with direct links to Pickering and Whitby.

The Museum of Victorian Science, the breath-taking Mallyan Spout Waterfall, and a wealth of walking and cycling paths winding through the national park are all close by.

Arrive at Whitby, where you can trek towards Larpool Viaduct, tour Whitby Museum, spend a relaxing afternoon in Pannett Park, ascend the 199 Steps for an elevated view, devour a bag of fish and chips along Whitby Sea Front, or learn about the town's history by exploring the ruins of Whitby Abbey.

Before visiting the Browns Robin Hood Bay for a delectable, sweet treat, box off your break by wandering down Robin Hood's Bay Beach or visiting Robin Hood's Bay Museum, returning home in time for supper.

At Riverbank View, enjoy the best of both the seaside and the countryside.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

About the location

GROSMONT

Whitby 5 miles.

The pretty village of Grosmont sits at the junction of the River Esk and Murk Esk in the midst of striking North Yorkshire Moors scenery. The area is characterised by its narrow roads, steep hills and scenic views over valleys of patchwork fields and wide-open expanses of moorland. Grosmont itself lies in the ‘Heartbeat Country’ and is famous for being the home of the North York Moors Steam Railway. The Railway has been preserved and run by enthusiasts since 1973 and today carries upwards of 300,000 passengers a year. The village has a general store, post office, book shop, art gallery, cafes and a pub. It makes a great base for exploring the many pretty farming villages along the Esk Valley and the wider North York Moors National Park, as well as the North Yorkshire Coastline with characterful harbour towns and villages.
