Plenty of parking next to hotel room. In my case I could see my motorcycle from the hotel window. Large well appointed clean room with excellent en suite. Lovely views over surrounding hills. Cozy pub with real fire. Good full English breakfast and friendly staff. All good thanks and would stay again.

Two nights at Black Swan Inn

Hotels.com advertises that this hotel has air conditioning - it does not. However, the staff are very helpful and it was a pleasant if somewhat warm stay.

Great place to stay

Great pub in a lovely location with fantastic views from the garden. The rooms were very large, as were the beds (which were really comfy). The room had everything you’d need. The staff were great and friendly, and helped out getting a taxi. The food at the pub is great, and the beer is kept exceptionally well. A great place to stay and only a 2 mile walk into Masham. The owners old WW2 vehicles in the car park are very interesting too.

Hotel was a construction site with no access prior

Arrive a little before 3.00pm , 2.15pm, no parking in front due to Construction activity. No access into building prior to 3.00pm -door locked and sign hanging on door saying "Gone to Pub" . Place was a building site and about 15miles from Ripon !!

Great hotel, fabulous location

We stayed for just one night in the Luxury Double with Jacuzzi Bathroom. The room was very big and comfortable. The Jacuzzi bath was a bit snug. The food was very good and the breakfast was excellent. Be warned that the "internet price" doesn't include breakfast. The views from the room were stunning, if you ignored the small caravan site. Some of the reviews I have seen have said that the caravan site, which is part of the hotel, was noisy. We were there mid week out of school holidays, so hardly noticed it.

Great room!

One night stay on business. Easy to find even though it is a rural location - well signposted. Pleasant staff and friendly locals. As a lone female traveller I felt perfectly safe at this hotel. Would definitely stay again.
