We loved the Black Swan! The service was outstanding. I travelled every week for work before covid and I have seldom had better service anywhere in the world I've been. Definitely the best service I've had in any hotel in the UK. I have mobility issues and while the Swan has no lift the staff couldn't do enough to help with bags etc., Good free parking behind the pub with plenty of parking spots. Breakfast was very good, best I've had in a while. The only drawback was dinner was not as good as the breakfast. Bar staff are very friendly. Lots of locals come in so you know it's good. The location is perfect with a short walk to any shops and to Pickering station (NYMR). We plan on coming back later in the year.

Beautiful location overlooking the dales, breakfast was beautifully cooked. The staff were exceptionally accommodating to the needs of my elderly mother, and dietary requirements of my wife, couldn’t have done more.
Ideally located for exploring Ryedale and the North Yorkshire Moors, the hotel is located in an area of natural beauty, between the traditional market towns of Pickering and Malton.

The location and parking were excellent - the NYMR Pickering Station is just 5 minutes walk away. The breakfast was served in the conservatory and was virtuously faithful to the positive reviews (enormous tea pots a hit). The rooms were spacious and clean - they'd actually been redecorated just weeks before our stay. Staff all friendly and knowledgeable. An experience at a good price. It's just how a small hotel should be run.

Lovely old pub in a very pretty quiet village. Staff could not have been more helpful. Room was very comfortable with a lovely private sitting area outside. Food was consistently good.

The house was ideally located for us as we spent the weekend visiting the North Yorkshire Moors Railway which was within walking distance. The house was spotless, homely and welcoming. It was particularly nice to find a small selection of goodies in the kitchen on our arrival. The hosts had left a welcome folder with lots of clear and concise instructions about the property and local recommendations for sight seeing and eating.

Nice little market town with plenty of places to eat in the evenings, even in the winter. It is a good centre for visiting other places nearby and it has the main attraction of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway.

Clean tidy and relaxing.
Clean tidy and relaxing. The birds at the pond were lovely to see. Even saw a kingfisher. Hot tub was very nice and they even turned up the temperature to meet our preference. The hot tub was checked and attended to promptly ever day of our stay. I know Pickering very well as my daughters lives there. We used the site as a place to relax and be with my family after loosing my brother few weeks before. My husband had also retired that weekend so we wanted to be close to our family. All our needs were met but could have done with few more cooking dishes and trays as we did not want to go out to eat. Would recommend the site to others.

Such a beautiful part of the country.
Such a beautiful part of the country. The town itself is great just to have a good walk around. But you are close to other locations eg. Whitby. To really enjoy in my opinion one of the best locations in England. Excellent for walkers, photography ect

Beautiful town. The NYR is a real tourist attraction.
Beautiful town. The NYR is a real tourist attraction. The stops are interesting and mostly independent! Parking is plentiful! Pickering is a fabulous base to explore the moors! Just 20 minutes to Whitby, 20 miles to York. Plenty of places to eat, lovely cafes and pubs! Don’t forget to visit the Castle. Scarborough is a 30 minute drive. People in the town are very friendly and the shops are very welcoming of dogs. Pickering is a real gem of a town! Flamingo Land theme park is about 10 mins from Pickering.

The purpose of our visit was to visit the Bangers and Cash Auction House, and to visit there memorable museum in Thornton le Dale. Pickering was a nice place. We went out of season so it was quiet and only went for two days. Ate at a Indian restaurant which was recommended to us.
Really liked the place. All communication before hand was spot on . Accurate and very helpful. Once we arrived we moved straight in, the lodge was very comfortable and cosy. All the basics were there cooking facilities, cutlery, plates etc, iron and board etc etc. On the Saturday we walked into Pickering, there is a footpath all the way from Wrelton into Pickering, but a handy bus service also in and out of town. On our return we had our, excellent,evening meal in the local village pub.
The location was within a short walk to the town and the log burner was an added bonus for us kept us very warm and cozy. Lots to do close by from Scarborough to whitby and we even went to the famous Bangers and cash shop in Pickering the cottage was very clean and tidy and there was plenty utensils and cooking equipment and much more for our needs. I strongly recommend this little cottage as it was peaceful and quiet.
To me the hotel had a "classic" quality about it. I loved the patio the garden it was so green, pretty and quiet. The public rooms where you could order a drink was nice. The dining room, the size of it, and the staff was excellent. The breakfast was good size and delicious. My room spacious, and loved the bath tub after a long day of hiking. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend the Forest and Vale.
Outstanding accommodation and perfect location. Sally was the perfect host, always helpful and served a delicious breakfast each morning with nothing too much trouble.
With the separate bedroom with en-suite, sitting room and dining room, all spotless clean and so tastefully decorated, it leaves hotel rooms for dead.
We could not recommend highly enough and would love to return ASAP.

We loved being able to use the fireplace. We were in The Tack Room and it's a very well laid out cottage. It's comfortable, homely and cosy; perfect for a couple to stay in.
It's walking distance to everything in Pickering and it's a relatively short drive to York, Whitby and other coastal towns. You can also get to Dalby Forest and other lovely places pretty easily for a nice walk which we liked.
Excellent hotel perfectly located in the center of Pickering and just a few minutes walk from the NYMR steam train experience. Jill, the owner/hostess, or host for the 'woke' brigade was brilliant. Nothing too much trouble and interested in where you were going and how your day had been. The young bar staff were also excellent and the food delicious.
Very welcoming, and bike friendly. Accommodated our need to clean our muddy cycles. Hotel near some quiet cycle routes to avoid the main road to Pickering. Breakfast was good and included fresh fruit and a cooked breakfast which could be adapted to our needs (one dairy free diet).
We very much enjoyed our stay and all the individual attention that comes with staying at a family hotel business. Rooms have been nicely remodeled, are super clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was also very nice. Definitely good value and great find in Pickering.
Lovely quiet location yet only a thirty minute walk or five minute drive from Pickering. Secure parking right outside the property. The Stables was an ideal base for exploring the area. A light, airy and comfortable property and a very relaxing stay.
We went for one night and stayed for 2, everything about this hotel is perfect, spacious rooms, comfy beds, roaring fires, great food and friendly and informative staff. The location is excellent for exploring the NYM, we can’t wait to visit again
Telephoned owner a couple of days before stay. He was very helpful informing me bread, milk, biscuits would be provided for our arrival. Perfectly located in Pickering. Accommodation perfectly adequate for a two night stay by 3 motorcyclists.
The property was clean and well equipped. The location is perfect for the North York Moors, the steam railway at Pickering, Whitby and Robin hoods bay were not far away.
York is well within an hours driving distance, use the Park and Ride.
Very nice hotel in beautiful location
Lovely large garden next to a paddock - met Bert the friendly horse!
Room very good
Also has a nice little bar and we had an excellent dinner in the airy dining room
Everything about the hotel was excellent, beautiful room and fantastic food. You need a car as there is nothing in the village but it is very close to Pickering and other North Yorkshire attractions.
Lovely restful couple of days in Pickering. The Old Manse is perfectly located, close to all the amenities. Great breakfast and nothing too much trouble for the staff. Definitely staying again
Location in Pickering was great. Nicely maintained property; decently sized rooms and bathrooms. Food was great and really reasonably priced. Owners were helpful and flexible.
