Grove Cottage in Malton, North Yorkshire

We really enjoyed our stay.. It was perfect and exactly what we needed. The location is so peaceful, very quiet, surrounded by countryside. The owner was very friendly. We appreciated the superb quality of the cottage and the hot tub. It was so comfortable and spotless. Very spacious. Very impressed and would highly recommend. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Excellent accommodation.. Extremely clean with a very cosy and comfortable open plan space. The kitchen is also well equipped. The setting is glorious and the hot tub is an extra bonus. Nothing is too much trouble for the proprietors, for example we requested plastic glasses and they were delivered within minutes! First class service!

The cottage was lovely, super clean and in a great location for exploring.. The hot tub was a nice to relax in after a busy day with the kids. Kitchen was well equipped but could, if I’m being really picky, do with a better coffee pot, a spatula and some wooden spoons. It was great to have a washing machine. Malton was a pretty little town with lots of places to grab a decent bite to eat. Mick and his wife were lovely hosts. Thanks for a great holiday!

Really enjoyed our break after previous months of home working.. The cottage has everything needed for a comfortable stay and the hot tub is a great bonus. Good location as lots to see and do within a short drive.

Grove cottage is a lovely holiday let very clean the cleanest oven we have ever had in a holiday cottage and friendly hosts the hot tub is a lovely bonus but we would still stay here without.. The beds and bedding are of a high quality there is nothing to fault at Grove Cottage we loved our holiday here and want to come back

Grove Cottage is one of those little gems that you almost want to keep secret but can't help telling everyone about.. First impression is "Wow". Everything about the cottage has been designed and maintained to a very high standard, absolutely superb. Fantastic cottage which was warm, quiet and beautiful. Very easy to get to from the A64. The owners are very friendly, down to earth and approachable, even suggesting that we let them know if the cottage got chilly for my grandson, as they would turn the heating up if we needed it. The hot tub is an added bonus which was appreciated after days out to the coast, York and Eden Camp. There is a travel cot and highchair available if needed. The farm shop and café is less than 5 minutes walk away and is to be recommended. There are a number of good restaurants and cafes in Malton. Grove Cottage is definitely number one on our list, and we look forward to making return visits over the next year.

We stayed here for 7 days with a toddler and a 6 month old. The cottage is nicely presented and fully equipped. We were only out for a few hours at a time due to having a baby and found the cottage a great place to relax. It's in a perfect location for visiting the many attractions of North Yorkshire and we made plenty of trips to Whitby, Scarborough and Pickering. The hot tub was fantastic and I would highly recommend the farm shop across the road to buy all the ingredients for a full English. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners who were always available if needed but never intrusive. Would highly recommend to all.

This is an ideal cottage base to use for both the Yorkshire coastal resorts, and places such as York, Castle Howard, Castles at Pickering,Helmsley,Scarborough, as well as the NYMR.. Eden Camp war museum is nearby which is very good and ideal on a rainy day. The cottage is so quiet and sitting in the hot tub we delighted in the animals (Goat, Chickens, & Horses) as well as at this time of year in May had a nightly aerobatics display from the house martins building nests under the cottage eaves. We had everything we needed for a relaxing stay and enjoyed the welcome items especially the wine.

An absolutely fantastic place great location and great cottage

Great property,spacious and comfortable with a fantastic hot tub,what more could you want!

A truly lovely place to stay - we enjoyed every moment if our stay

What a great find this cottage was. The location is ideal for exploring the area. The cottage itself is wonderful with a large open plan kitchen/dining/living space and two lovely bedrooms with a snug doubling as a third bedroom. There is the added bonus of a hot tub which is a great way to relax after a day out exploring. The owners were extremely helpful and welcoming as was the milk and wine they had in the fridge on arrival. We were all sad to have to leave but will certainly return in the future.

Fantastic accommodation with a lovely host and a brilliant setting for us to visit large parts of the area.. Would definitely visit again and would recommend to any families looking for a good base to relax or visit large swathes of Yorkshire.

Fantastic central location to numerous places to visit.. Lovely luxurious place to stay hosted by two lovely people in Sandra and Mick. Can't wait to go back.

Gorgeous cottage with the added benefit of a fabulous hot tub ! Cottage is lovely and clean and well furnished ,welcome wine tea coffee milk was a nice gesture , even beach towels were provided for hot tub ! We loved our weekend here and will definitely be back !

Our 5th stay in this gorgeous cottage and we had a fabulous family holiday. The cottage is located between Malton and Pickering so is perfectly placed for days out to Scarborough, Whitby, York, Bridlington....I could go on.... Having stayed before we knew exactly what to expect and as usual the cottage was immaculately clean and well equipped, particularly the kitchen which has plenty of baking trays, pans etc. The first thing we did when we got there was make a nice cuppa as the owners Mick and Sandra had kindly provided milk, teabags and sugar. Then we went outside to enjoy the lovely views from the garden, there were horses in the field out the back and rabbits hopping around, it's such a peaceful place to be. The cottage is a lovely place to stay and is well maintained both inside and out. The bedrooms are a good size, the bathroom had a large walk in shower and the downstairs is open plan so is very light and airy. Outside in the outbuilding there is even a washing machine with a washing line and pegs provided to dry clothes/swimwear. I had half my washing done before we'd arrived home! The highlight for us has and will always be the HOT TUB! We love it. Perfect end to every day, time to relax once the kids are in bed and we love to watch the stars with a glass of wine. The hot tub was nice and warm on arrival and had just been cleaned out, plenty of towels were provided for use (as well as towels provided for use after the shower). On our second day here the owner Mick and his daughter brought the horses up to the fence so our boys could stroke them and feed them apples and other than seeing the horses being taken in and out you would just think you were there alone. Although the owners house is directly attached you never feel overlooked. When you do happen to see Mick or Sandra they are very helpful with ideas for days out and are lovely friendly people. We've been coming here since our oldest son was a year old and we now have three children who thoroughly enjoy our family holidays here. If you're looking for a self catering holiday that's in a great location for days out and want somewhere spacious, clean and comfortable then this is perfect. We will hopefully be back next year as usual!

Loved the hot tub, layout of the house and the location

We've just returned from a week away and we were gutted we had to leave. The cottage was everything & more we could have wanted. The 3 bed open cottage, is spacious, clean & attention to detail decor. The hot tube was a major plus, we all enjoyed it. The seating area, over looked a field with 3 horses & regular visits from rabbits. The cottage is over the road to a great little farm shop & cafe with its own range of animals. We are definitely returning & we were gutted we had to leave. A few tips for anyone visiting soon, take dvds for the kids, your own tin opener & the main bedroom is very light in the morning. The snug down stairs is ideal for the kids, luckily we took dvds & extra toys for my 4 yr old & the 11 yr old was happy it had wifi. Thanks to Mick for renting the cottage to us

Warm welcome, very comfortable cottage, hot tub was amazing.. Highly recommended.

Lovely cottage, lovely owners, house very child proof - we had a very relaxing few days!

Very impressed with the cottage, the owners were very welcoming showing us around the cottage and garden.. Very clean and tidy. The hot tub is a great addition our son loved it. We would highly recommend a stay in grove cottage. Thanks again.

Great weekend away! The cottage was great, being next door to the owners they greeted us with a quick tour and left us milk and a bottle of wine to welcome us. The hot tub was a great extra, towels supplied for this too. Not far away from Malton centre, and the farm shop across the road was great to pick up breakfast etc. Will definitely return!

Clean Cottage with good quality beds and bedding, superb bathroom with powerful shower and big, fluffy towels. A large, clean and well maintained hot tub.

The cottage was perfect for us with a young family. Great location and beautiful inside.

Beautiful cottage undersold by the photographs. The hot tub was sublime with an open outlook over a paddock. Loads of towels were provided and the cottage itself was furnished to a high standard. Loved the open plan kitchen and the shower was fantastic. Owners were lovely too. It was a nice central location to visit many of the sights in Yorkshire. Highly recommended.

Would definitely recommend staying in this cottage for a nice relaxing break. The cottage was extremely well maintained and also really clean and tidy. The hot tub was amazing! It was great to relax in at night. I must also mention that the owners were very pleasant and very welcoming. Overall an excellent place and we would both definitely recommend and would like to visit again sometime!

Excellent cottage. Very clean and modern with all home comforts. Hot tubs are always a winner!

Well situated for visiting local area. Spa was a nice touch to unwind at end of day and shower excellent. Owners were friendly and helpful. Would return again.

Excellent accommodation, spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The cottage is attached to the owners house but we could easily have been on our own. We would definitely use the cottage again and recommend to friends and family.

Grove Cottage was an excellent place as a base for the surrounding area. The house was excellent, beautifully looked after, very clean and well equipped. The Hot Tub is a definite bonus. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in this area.

An absolutely excellent cottage. The hot tub was amazing and very private.

I absolutely loved staying here. Where do i start??? The house is furnished beautifully and everything you could possibly need is here. There is a hot tub to relax in and games provided for the kids to play with. One of the bedrooms is downstairs and doubles as a playroom with a seperate TV and DVD. Perfect for our daughter to have some time for herself when she wanted. Towels were provided for both showering and Hot Tub use (i.e two sets) and the owners welcomed us with Tea, Coffee, and couple of pints of Milk and a bottle of Wine. The house is attached to the owners property but you really dont know they are there etc and the cottage simply feels like a home away from home. There are Horses in the back fields and on the odd day the owners let the horses up closer to the house for our daughter so see / feed them. I cannot recommend this cottage enough!!! None of us wanted to leave on the last day!!!!

This was our first visit to Grove Cottage. And going on our first impression when we arrived, we were already mentally booking the next visit. Grove Cottage is a fantastic base to start any day. With so much stuff on your doorstep, a week is never enough. We visited the National Railway Museum, North Yorkshire Moors Railway, Eden Camp, Whitby, Scarborough, Bridlington, York Castle Museum, Helmsley Castle, Rievaulx Abbey, Pickering and popped in to Hutton-le-Hole during our stay. We were never more than an hour from anything. The cottage itself is beautiful. Even though it's attached to the owner's own property, you never get the impression that you're being watched over. In fact, most of the time we felt like we were in the middle of nowhere on our own. Which was great, because it made it peaceful and relaxing. The layout of the property is great too. With a through plan downstairs consisting of lounge, kitchen and diner in one large room, with a large play room/snug off to the side. This was equally brilliant, as it meant we could shut our 5 year old in there with her toys and a DVD and not hear a peep from here for hours. Upstairs is much the same, with a bedroom either end and the large bathroom between. Large walk in shower, and a fantastic view from the window when you're having a shave in the morning. There are of course a couple of things that stand out with this property. There is the added bonus of an amazing hot tub, which we used every night (bar one due to bad weather). The second; the owners have 5 horses at the bottom of the garden, which leads on to their own paddock. 3 shires and 2 shetlands. We did venture down to say hello to them all, and the owner let us have some carrots to feed them. The shetlands stay a little closer to the house during the day in a fenced off section of the paddock, whereas the shires have the run of the field. We did however leave the house one day to find the shetlands running around in the owner's garden. They are very friendly. This house is great for families of any age. We have a youngster and she loved it. We will definitely be back again.

Our party could not fault anything about Grove Cottage, everything you required was there and more. The hot tub was excellent, we all enjoyed it. Would highly recommend this property, it was a very relaxing weekend. It is a place where you would return to have a lovely break.

This cottage was superb! As soon as we stepped in the door we felt totally relaxed! It had everything you could need. The cottage was lovely and warm, the beds were comfy and the kitchen well equipped. The bonus of having the farm shop just over the road meant we didn't have to go out driving to a supermarket. The hot tub was wonderful, we used it several times a day! It was a lovely week and the perfect birthday treat! We will definitely be going back here again!

We couldn't have asked for any more with this holiday home. It was decorated and furnished beautifully, had everything we could possibly need in it and was spotlessly clean. The owners were very welcoming and helpful, and the location was perfect. The hot tub was a much enjoyed added bonus. Faultless holiday.

It was in a lovely area, so peaceful.

We spent an idyllic week at Grove Cottage in June 2014. It is a great base from which to explore - we took in Whitby, Robin Hoods Bay, Scarborough, Helmsley, Castle Howard, Light Water Valley and cycling in Dalby Forest. There are so many picture perfect villages in the area that we loved driving from place to place, taking it all in. We found Grove Cottage to be immaculately presented, well equipped and comfortable. The hosts were friendly and informative and the welcoming milk and wine were most appreciated. The open plan layout downstairs works well and includes a large TV. We took full advantage of the hot tub, enjoying both the sun shine and then the starry skies - a fabulous way to relax. We didn't want to leave - would heartily recommend.

Grove cottage is a wonderful cottage, the owners are lovely people. The cottage is well decorated and very clean and comes with lots of little extras. The hot tub is an added bonus.

Loved the location. Friendly owners. Place was fresh, spotless and well kept. A wonderfully relaxing place and you couldn't beat the hot tub to help end a perfect day!

From the minute we arrived we were made to feel very welcome. The owners were very helpful, and approachable. The accommodation was fantastic a real home from home. The hot tub was a fabulous bonus. The surrounding area was rural and very peaceful. It is also within reasonable reach of the coast, Scarborough and Whitby. The cottage had plenty of info regarding things to do which was great. The bottle of wine was a nice touch too on arrival. Nothing to dislike really. Had a lovely time :-)

A brilliant cottage all round - the hosts were wonderful, they made us feel so at home (wine in the fridge) and were there for anything we needed. The cottage was gorgeous - I wish our house was like that! Beautifully decorated, very contemporary, all the cooking utensils you could ask for and absolutely spotless - no dust whatsoever! And the hot tub is just amazing and could easily fit 5-6 people - its was February and 5 degrees c outside but we were so cosy in it stargazing at midnight - very romantic! Location is great - both York and Whitby are a very reasonable distance and the moors are great for rambling. Will definitely stay again and probably bring a second couple to join us, the cottage was so spacious! B & S x

The hot tub was fantastic and the view amazing! The owner was lovely and very accommodating. We came on a minimoon, the cottage was beautiful and we will definitely be staying again! It was lovely to sit in the hot tub and watch the horses.

I loved the peaceful setting and the facilities, the hot tub was great - unlimited use and no restrictions. The owners were very accommodating, and helpful. All in all, a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

The whole place was spotless, and the hot tub was the best we have ever been in.

The hot tub was brilliant. We were totally relaxed. The owners were lovely. We will be happy to come back to this property, and would certainly recommend to anyone. Brilliant!

I would definitely book again. Lovely cottage, great surroundings, friendly owners, lovely big hot hot tub! Wish I could live there!

The cottage was immaculate and a really well positioned base for a holiday.

It was an excellent holiday. There was a genuine warm welcome from the owner and the cottage itself was furnished and equipped to an extremely high standard. The fixtures and fittings were first class. The photos on the web site do not do it justice. The hot tub in the garden being an excellent feature. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage. I can't wait to make a return visit!

Fantastic location, friendly owners. Fantastic to sit in hot tub and watch the owners horses. Would definitely visit again.

Excellent accommodation with a lot of amenities and some nice touches.

Lovely rural settings, beautiful cottage, very friendly and helpful owners.

Stopped here over a cold half term in February and cannot wait to visit again. The cottage is attached to the owners house , who are very helpful and welcoming. The kitchen , lounge, dinner were all very modern, clean and full of equipment. The room downstairs had a day bed, TV and DVD, ideal to shut the kids away in !!!. The lounge had a large TV and lots of space. The bedrooms were both spacious, modern and relaxing, my kids want us to have out shower room converted the the lovely one here. The hot tub was huge, always warm and perfect for star or even space station gazing. The owner left loads of towels and we managed to do all our washing as well before we left . The horses at the back were friendly . Ideal for Pickering, Scarborough or Whitby, Will visit again as soon as we have some spare time. Thank you

The location was really good. The cottage was lovely and the owners were very friendly and helpful. We will be re-booking for next year.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely peaceful setting, hot tub was amazing. Was like home from home.

Immaculately presented cottage, with fab hot tub on the patio.

The owners were very friendly and helpful but respected our privacy. The cottage was in an excellent location and we would highly recommend it to our friends.

This is an immaculate cottage with the super addition of a modern hot tub on the patio. The cottage is an extension of the owners property but you would hardly notice as they leave you to enjoy your holiday. A lovely touch on arrival is a bottle of chilled wine and tea/coffee. The cottage has two good sized bedrooms upstairs which sleep 4 and downstairs a smaller room with a bed/sofa which would sleep another adult or child. The bathroom is modern and very clean with a large shower, towels are provided for the bathroom and the hot tub too. Downstairs is a smart kitchen with dining area and the living space with a flat screen TV on the wall - DVD player available too if you want it. There is a fridge (no freezer) and a washing machine in the outhouse area. The interior of this cottage is excellent with modern fittings and immaculately presented. The hot tub outside is easy to use and a superb addition - it gives this cottage the edge over others we viewed and was the key reason we booked - we were not disappointed, it was easy to use and we were in it every night. The location of the cottage is ideal for exploring North Yorkshire and its coast - be careful as you approach as you may miss the turning. Basically hit the road to Pickering from the A64 and turn left when you see the Whole Hog farm shop and cafe. Overall I would recommend this cottage to anyone - unless you are looking for lots of outdoor space - there isn't really any but you can gaze upon the owners horses in the next field as you sit in the hot tub so I don't think that matters.

The surrounding countryside was beautiful, the cottage was very comfortable and finished to a high standard. The owner was very friendly and respectful of our privacy. The hot tub was a real bonus.

The whole visit was a pleasure and we have recommended this to friends and family. We are looking to go back again later in the year!

Beautiful cottage and surroundings, we were made to feel very welcome.

Property was great and location was an excellent base for getting around the area. Owners were very friendly, could not fault anything about this property. Would definitely go back to this property and would highly recommend to others.

Just back from a lovely stay at this property. Its exactly as described, squeeky clean and with some very nice touches such as a large walk in shower, and a good flat screen TV. The big attraction is of course the hot tub which was bigger than we expected, always ready to use and enjoyable at all times of day/ evening . A joy to watch the stars - plasic 'glass' in hand. You do need to camber up 3 steps and over to get in - not always the most elegant manouver and a person with mobility issues might have a problem. The owners provide pool towels as well as fabulous bathroom towels so that was a bonus. The house itself is comfortable although I think that 5 adults in the living area might be a bit of a squeeze. The teenager used the downstairs bedroom and while she found it ok, there are no blinds on the skylight windows so it was pretty light in the mornings. No wardrobe in this room, so its really more of an extra than a proper single room although the property description is fair about this - its more of a place for 4+ adults. The kitchen area is pleasantly furnished - we noticed a few things missing such as a working tin opener, a bread knife and being real coffee addicts , a caffitiere ! This is only a small 'complaint' the overall standard of furnishings etc is high. We didnt use them but there is a good standard of eqipment for babies/young children provided The property is next to the owners' and we didnt see much of them. They have several pets and we loved seeing the dogs, cats and ponies about the place. The property is pretty near the main road - you can see cars from upstairs and you notice traffic sounds outside/ if the windows are open. For us it did not spoil the overall experience. The property is rural , well situated for touring, but if you are looking for pretty hills and walking from your doorstep its possibly not the best choice. Eden Camp (recommended) is just down the road - as is Flamingoland if that is your thing. Both Pickering and Malton are 10 minutes away by car. The farm shop over the road has good butchery/ bread. We always find Sykes efficient

The cottage was a home from home, with everything catered for. Wine on arrival and our welcome tray was a lovely touch. The owners were extremely courteous and the hot tub was fab! We will definitely book again.

Really enjoyed the whole experience, everything ran very smoothly from the original booking with Sykes right through to leaving on the Monday. The Cottage is gorgeous and finished to a very high standard and we did not feel that there was anything else that could have been done to make it more enjoyable! The HOT TUB is fabulous! Thank you.

Fantastic and relaxing week in a gorgeous, clean and well equipped cottage that is situated in an excellent location for days out to York, Whitby, and Scarborough etc. The hot tub was a brilliant bonus too.

The cottage was very clean and the owners very helpful. The weather on this week was excellent and I would recommend the cottage to anyone. We hope to return to this cottage.

Excellent property, one of the best we've ever stopped at. The owners were fantastic. The quality and location were brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble, shame we had to leave at the end of the week - 5 *****. Have already recommended to our friends.

the cottage is very comfortable. We were three adults and one child (our grandson) He used the small snug and though it was fantastic. The hot tub was an added bonus. The cottage is very difficult to find and the lane is very small and coming from a town, assumed it was a driveway. The SatNav soon put us right, with it "turn a round where possible"

Great accomodation, friendly welcome and the hot tube was a big hit with the family. Well appointed and nicely presented self catering cottage. Although the owners house is adjoining there were no issues with privacy - nice rural setting. Laundry facilities provided so great for families. Malton only 7 miles away so easy access to supermarket and local shops. Location's great as it's handy for York, the coast, Dalby Forrest and North Yorkshires Moors - wish we'd had more time to explore as we found that there was just so much to do. Highlights of the week were: hiring mountain bikes in Dalby Forrest, and sightseeing in York Only slight down side was that there was no blind on the velux window in the downstairs (3rd) bedroom. So it was just as well that our son gets up at the crack of dawn anyway. Would thoroughly recommend this cottage as it was also great value for money.

We have recently moved to the area after spending 6yrs in australia and had a very warm welcome from Mick, Sandra and family. It exceeded our expectations and the website photos don't do the place justice. It was amazing and the family gave us lots of advise on the area. The accommodation was one of the best we have stayed in and want more people to go and enjoy the hard work that the family have done in making a wonderful holiday getaway. The hot-tub was a huge bonus and our little Charlie loved the big bath.

Beautifully appointed property within easy reach of a wide range of activities and locations. The use of the hot tub was a fabulous addition to the holiday.

We loved the hot tub in the garden, and the friendliness of the owners who have got a fantastic property and we felt very much at home while staying there. We will be back and will recommend to others.

Well what can you say, this was a fabulous cottage and the hot tub was great. On arrival there was milk, tea, coffee and a bottle of wine. The owners were great. This should have a five star rating.
