Previous visitors' comments about Black Swan Cottage:
Black Swan Cottage provided us with the perfect place to stay whilst visiting Pickering. The house is right in the heart of the village and it has excellent bus and train routes to attractions such as Goathland, Whitby and Scarborough. There is a great supermarket just five minutes walk as well as both an Indian restaurant/ take away and Pizzeria. The house was well equipped and spotlessly clean and we had ample parking right outside the door.

The cottage was perfectly situated to explore the area and had a welcome pack with lots of leaflets, brochures etc to help us find things to do. Pickering was lovely!
