Best Western Forest And Vale Hotel - A Georgian manor with a secluded garden, deluxe rooms, and proximity to Dalby Forest
Set in the center of Pickering, this 200-year-old listed Georgian manor offers a traditional yet comfortable stay with free WiFi and premium bedding in all rooms. The contemporary super-king 4-poster deluxe room includes a roll-top bath and separate walk-in shower, while the traditional king 4-poster deluxe room overlooks a 300-year-old sweet chestnut tree. Guests can dine in the Garden Restaurant, which serves dinner with a varied wine list, including a Yorkshire wine produced 24.1 km away. A lounge menu featuring homemade scones and locally baked cakes is available from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The Best Western Forest And Vale Hotel is an ideal base for exploring the North York Moors, Whitby, Scarborough, and the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. The secluded garden provides a peaceful retreat, and the hotel is pet-friendly with family-oriented services.
