Grouse Cottage

Lovely property although very dark inside.

The garden was very secure for a dog but as there are large trees you lose the sun just before 5 so after that the garden is completely in shade . Grass could have been cut earlier than on the day before we left. Owners as live directly across from the property so you don't feel like you have total privacy.

A lovely cottage with everything we needed.

Spotlessly clean . We appreciated the milk / coffee being left and lemon cake was delicious. Great water pressure in the shower and plenty of hot water was appreciated. Garden perfect for the dogs. We made good use of the bbq ! A small garden chimnea would have been a lovely touch for summer evenings. Your hints and tips about where to visit/ dog walks came in handy. Thanks for a great stay !

Everything we needed was provided.

The cottage was great and the owners helpful.

Excellent property, clean, comfortable and well equipped for a self catering holiday.

Very dog friendly, dogs enjoyed playing in the very secure garden. Pleasant walks direct from outside the property. Owner’s onsite, very friendly and approachable but not intrusive. Overall an excellent property in a great area, would not hesitate to rebook when returning to this area. Well done to the owners.

We had a really relaxing stay at Grouse cottage.

The cottage is beautiful with everything you could need. The owner was very friendly & helpful. Although we didn’t take a dog this time, the cottage was very dog friendly with bowl, treats & throws provided. I will definitely visit again.

We had a Fabulous Week - the Cottage was gorgeous, super clean, great parking and a secure Garden, the Cottage had all the Home from Home Comforts.

The host left Milk (which we forgot...

It was a lovely spacious cottage and the boys ( Flint and Jack) loved the garden.

Nice and quiet but close to Kirbymoorside to get provisions. Would recommend.

We stayed at Grouse as a party of 3 adults and 2 dogs.

Friendly welcome from the owners. Lovely cottage, everything we needed for our stay. Home made cake for us and treats for the dogs were a nice touch. Large secure garden for the dogs. Lovely walks from the doorstep. Overall a great weekend and would definitely return.

Lovely cottage in a quiet location.

Really god setup and very dog friendly. We didn’t find the beds particularly comfortable but otherwise found the cottage very comfortable and warm.

Lovely cottage, well equipped.

Treats for human & canine guests appreciated!

the property was very nice and comfortable to a point our only complaint was that the easy chairs and settee where toolow and difficult to get out ,maybe its just that we are old and have creaky joints.

A lot of thought has gone into making this cottage welcoming and comfortable.

In particular, it is ideally designed and prepared for guests with dogs. Excellent!

Grouse Cottage is a fantastic place to stay the owners are on site if you require anything but not intrusive.

It is a very peaceful place with a lovely enclosed garden for our dog to roam around in with no escape ! . Milk and cake on arrival was much appreciated , and the beds are very comfy. The cottage is well placed to visit surrounding areas . We would definitely try and stay again if in that part of the country. 10 out of 10 Patrick and Tracey .

Hosts were very welcoming and friendly.

Cottage ideal for location, very dog friendly and comfortable. Secure back garden for dogs. Fully equipped and everything you needed Tracey left us a beautiful homemade cake and milk in fridge. Would definitely recommend and hopefully will return.

Thank you for a lovely stay at Grouse Cottage.

We had a great time and loved the ease and simplicity of the place and surroundings. A great place to get away from it all.

A larger, more visible sign outside would be useful as it was a bit hard to find it the dark.

Very well equipped and the hospitality very welcoming. We loved the fruitcake, dog friendliness, little dishwasher and recycling options. Very quiet location and comfy bed. The only thing was that the shower head would not stay up whilst showering and it ultimately sprang apart in the middle of the night (we and dog were indeed very alarmed by the noise!).

It was a lovely cottage in a lovely location and lovely weather too

Very modern kitchen.

Comfortable, warm. Makes a good base for sightseeing, walking, biking etc. Lovely walks straight out the door. Garden great for sitting in (weather permitting)

Lovely relaxing break, cottage well presented, lots of lovely thoughtful extras, milk in the fridge, home baked cake, dog treats, dog towels and throws.

Enclosed garden to let our dogs wander in, giving peace of mind. We will return and hopefully there will be no rain.

Well presented, comfortable, fully equipped holiday cottage to a high standard.

Private garden with patio and BBQ. Owners very helpful and friendly. Excellent that dogs are allowed. Plenty of walks from the door. Great location quiet and peaceful but with easy access to moors, woodland walks, towns, historic properties and the beautiful coast. Our second visit, will return and highly recommend.

Wonderful hosts helpful and kind.

The lemon cake and milk in the fridge very thoughtful along with tea and coffee. Super location a very comfortable very clean high standard accommodation. I would not hesitate to recommend this lovely holiday cottage to friends and family, with or without pets.

Very nice cottage, owners friendly and helpful.

The cottage was very well equipped with all we would need, very high standard. Very good location for the places we wanted to visit. Our dog was fully catered for with biscuits and blankets, and the welcome sponge and other bits were a nice surprise. Safe enclosed garden for our dog to run in. The cottage lacked for nothing and was very homely. Would definitely recommend.

Tracy was really welcoming and her flapjacks are to die for.

Grouse cottage is lovely and very comfortable. It is in a great location, really quiet and peaceful, yet I didn't feel at all nervous, being on my own with just my dog, and he was very happy and relaxed too.

The owners were very helpful and the cottage was very clean and well equipped.

It was a lovely to arrive to find a cake and milk in the fridge. Have no hesitation in recommending Grouse cottage. A great base to explore the North Yorkshire Moors and perfect for dogs.

Lovely cottage with a nice welcome from Tracy complete with a fresh baked Victoria sponge.

Cottage was excellently equipt to a very high standard the garden was lovely and well secured if you have small dogs. Under floor heating kept the cottage at a good temperature but the wood burner was lovely in the evenings. The cottage is a good base for visiting North Yorkshire as Whitby, Scarbough, Bridlington and the North Yorkshire Moors Visitors Centre all within 30 miles. The North Yorkshire Railway at Pickering to Whitby is a must stopping at Goathland (Heartbeat) country. Overall we had a fantastic holiday and we can’t fault the cottage or the location in the slightest. Highly recommended.

Great location for exploring the coast, moors and market towns.

Owner of holiday cottage very friendly and helpful.

Cottage is out of the way but not so far you feel you have to travel miles out of your way.

It makes it very quiet. Exactly what we want. The small town is only a five to 10 min drive and has three pubs, and a few takeaways depending on what you want and a small co-op. The nearest towns (Pickering or Hemsley) are lovely to have a look round and Thirsk has everything you could want. We have come here two years in a row now and it recharges our batteries! We look forward to going again in the future.

The cottage was well equipped and beautiful throughout.

However one small snag was not being allowed to leave our dogs to go out for a meal or to the pub in the evening. Made it very limiting. But the cottage and its location were excellent.

It was definitely the best Sykes cottage we have stayed in.

The owners were very nice people and were determined to make our stay very pleasant, providing a welcoming letter, a comprehensive folder of info and I would definitely recommend them,

Lovely welcome from Tracey.

Good location for a first holiday in North Yorkshire.

Staff who were contacted prior to booking were helpful and efficient.

The cottage itself is superb. Very comfortable and well equipped. Very dog friendly too - dog bowl for water was provided as was a jar full of dog biscuits (and flapjacks for us!) but in addiaion tyhe owner offered us the use of dog throws that were put on the furniture to allow the dogs to sit by us.

this holiday meets everything you require .

a nice rural clean cottage in fantastic scenic country side . well maintained property with every thing you need at hand . dog friendly perfect small fenced off garden to the rear of the property . plenty of car parking spaces . even washing machine / dryer / dishwasher included . a perfect retreat.

Lovely cottage, everything thought of, even doggie biscuits and a very nice jam sponge!

Owner was very approachable but also didn't intrude. It was so quiet and peaceful, and the shower was amazing!! ,I would definitely recommend this cottage.

The cottage was very comfortable and facilities good only one drawback.

At the rear entrance, could do with a few more paving slabs as it was very muddy coming in from garden. Apart from that overall very good.

Very welcoming proprietor easy going and attentive.

Cottage well equipped comfortable, clean and cosy Great location Lots to see in area Very dog friendly

We had a lovely stay at Grouse cottage.

Everything you could need including a homemade cake, dog biscuits for which our dogs were extremely grateful and dog towels. It was the most relaxing and comfortable holiday, set in the countryside, easy to find and a glorious wood burner for those chilly nights!! Thank you .

lovely cottage, extremely dog friendly, excellent location for dog walking

THIS IS AN EXCLLENT COTTAGE IN A LOVELY LOCATION.

ESPECIALLY DOG FRIENDLY THE TRACEY AND PATRICK CANNOT DO ENOUGH FOR YOU BUT THEY ALSO RESPECT YOUR PRIVACY. THE COTTAGE IS VERY WELL EQUIPPED AND LAYED OUT WELL WITH A PRIVATE ENCLOSED GARDEN. I WOULD DEFINITLEY RECOMMEND THIS COTTAGE AND LOCATION FOR GREAT DAYS OUT IN THE NORTH YORKS MOORS.......FANTASTIC

Lovely cottage and the owner Tracy was very helpful.
