The White Swan Inn  

In the heart of Pickering, a short stroll from the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and Pickering Church. This family-friendly inn sits close to Beck Isle Museum, Pickering Castle and is a quick drive to North York Moors National Park.

A proper family-run Yorkshire inn with a warm, homely vibe and 21 air-conditioned rooms. Rooms feature Smart TVs or DVD players, premium bedding with down comforters, bathrobes, complimentary bottled water and private bathrooms with tubs or showers. Expect friendly, unfussy décor and views from a terrace.

On-site restaurant and bar/lounge, terrace, barbecue area, playroom and an aquapark for splash-happy guests. Complimentary wireless internet and free self-parking keep things easy. Tour and ticket assistance help you explore the Moors and local attractions.

Business center, two meeting rooms (conference facilities available), luggage storage and dry-cleaning/laundry services. Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property.

Dining focuses on real, hearty fare — the inn prides itself on a two‑rosette restaurant rather than plastic fine dining. Full breakfasts are served daily (8:00–10:00; fee applies) and children five and under eat breakfast free. Room service runs during limited hours and the bar is perfect for post-walk pints.
