A fantastic hotel that is really convenient for visiting the North Yorkshire Moors Railway which is only a walk away. We had a superior room (No. 6) which gives great views across the garden, and includes a sofa in the TV area as well as an easy chair. The bed was very comfortable and large. The room was reached after... More

From the moment we arrived the experience was excellent. The Receptionist, concerned that being 6'6" might be a problem in the standard beds offered an upgrade to a large superior room overlooking the garden with an enormous and comfortable bed. The restaurant menu wasn't extensive but the food we chose was good. Only downside was the bacon at breakfast was... More

Always a professional service from efficient helpful staff. We were advised that there was a wedding party on one evening of our stay, so we expected some noise, but we never heard a thing in our room - on past experience at most hotels, this is very unusual. The beds are super comfortable, decor is pleasing & nothing is too... More

M and I have just returned from the Forest and Vale Hotel,Pickering from a 3 night stay, and cannot praise it enough. The hotel is exceptionally clean throughout, the dinner menu offers a good choice to suit most tastes and the quality and presentation of the food is first class. Breakfasts are cooked when ordered and are hot and plentiful,... More

The food is usually very good (only one meal has ever been disappointing) and the staff are excellent. The dining room is splendid, grand and with lovely views over the garden. The bar area is comfortable although some tables are draughty when... More
