The Black Swan in Helmsley

For decades, the Black Swan has welcomed visitors with a warm welcome and legendary hospitality.

The Black Swan, which dates back to the 15th century, was once the primary resting stops for tired travellers on a stagecoach route connecting Leeds and York. The Black Swan is beautifully higgledy-piggledy, with oodles of character, with an Elizabethan building on one end, a Tudor on the other, and a Georgian House in the centre.

The Black Swan is the ideal place to dine, drink, sleep, and explore lovely Helmsley and is a stones throw from Rievaulx Abbey, Helmsley Castle, and Helmsley Walled Garden.
