Hotels near Settrington Beacon, Ryedale District

This trip to the UK, this is my favorite hotel. It really looks like the kind of hotel in classical fiction, downstairs is a bar, or a restaurant, upstairs is a few rooms. The driver thinks that such hotel conditions will be very poor, not as good as the hotel. In fact, it is not, it is particularly good, clean, comfortable, spacious and distinctive! The most unforgettable thing for me was that on the day of arrival, I came to menstruation, no sanitary napkins, and I was in a hurry, because there were no supermarket shops around, and the location was relatively biased. I booked this hotel for the next day by the Pickering steam train. I was eating on the first floor and told the waiter about my difficulties. I didn't express it accurately. The waiter went to the back and took dry paper towels, wet paper towels, and sanitary napkins and asked me which one I needed. I pointed to the sanitary napkins. She went to the back again and took three pieces for me. It was wrapped up and others couldn't see it. I thanked her very much, wanted to give her money, she didn't. I gave her a pooch she bought the day before yesterday and she happily took it. I was very happy!

Wonderful place to stay. Booked this lovely guest house at the last minute... And so very glad we did... Such a charming place to stay and in an ideal location for acces to everything in Pickering. The building is charming, and attention to detail, everything spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, lovely toiletries, a guest sitting room with a fridge to put your drinks in and glasses to use. The garden is lovely... It would be nice to return in warmwr weather to enjoy sitting out there. Breakfast menu was very good... Something for everyone... And was excellent. Run by a lovely, friendly couple... Just so enjoyable. Would definitely recommend this little Gem...and we definitely would love to return.

My sister and I stayed at the Old Manse for 2 nights last weekend to attend a family celebration in the area. On arrival we were met by Valerie who after showing us our room made us a welcome cup of tea with biscuits We stayed in the garden room which was comfortable, just a pity the weather wasn't good enough to enjoy the lovely garden. We also had bathrobes which was unexpected but appreciated. On the first evening we enjoyed a drink in the lounge with some other guests. Breakfast on both mornings was well cooked and plenty of it. All of the staff we met were very friendly, helpful and cheerful from the waiting staff to David who had the misfortune of having to try to mend the light I had broken. The owner Valerie was lovely and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay, just a pity we only had two nights.

We usually stay at the Fairfax or the Feathers, but they were fully booked. We decided to try the Black Swan, probably shouldn’t have. The hotel is very tired despite the recent renovation - I can’t see where in the upper halls and bedrooms? The room was very basic. Bathrooms need updating, and in fact cleaning before guests arrive. We were very late to check in, despite this we had to ask for the bathroom to be cleaned as it had been forgotten about, hairs, old water marks and tide rings - grim! Though the lady member of staff did apologise profusely and was very nice at both dinner and check out - a real asset to the hotel. A room bug bare for me was nowhere to hang longer items like coats and dresses. The wardrobe was for shirts and folded trousers only. I had to hang long dresses on the light fitting. Also there is no shaver/toothbrush socket in the bathroom. Such little things that would make stays easier. We had dinner, which wasn’t bad for ‘pub grub’ but it wasn’t restaurant quality so to speak. I’d add that the gravy and sauce were more like water in both consistency and taste. Pies were great! Sadly we didn’t get to try the breakfast (which was included in our rate) as despite being a weekend, there are no room-service options and breakfasts aren’t available past 9.30am. So Sunday at 9.41am, we had to trot over to a nearby café to have breakfast. This was very annoying as you can imagine! I wouldn’t recommend staying here with so many better options locally. Which is a real shame, as the food used to be so much better and I would’ve expected after renovations the hotel would’ve seen an improvement. It has not. But, if you just want pub food and you’re in the area then maybe give it a go.
