Friendly staff, clean, yummy and generous breakfast. They even started breakfast half an hour early because I had to leave early. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
Stayed for a night, the house is absolutely lovely, our room was cozy and spacious, the staff is welcoming and kind, and the breakfast was fantastic. Wish we could have stayed longer!
Beautiful room, wonderful breakfast, easy check in and out.

The Inn was lovely and beautifully decorated for the holidays. The owners were warm and welcoming when we arrived and delightful to chat with. There was fresh fruit and yogurt for breakfast in addition to baked goods and other freshly prepared options once we were seated. Five inches of snow fell the first evening enhancing beautiful scenery viewed from the dining room. We definitely plan on returning!
We were so happy with our stay! Place was beautiful and historical! Staff was so friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the history of the inn. Breakfast was delicious with many homemade fresh components! Will definitely be back!

The decor of the Black Swan Inn, in our room and throughout was absolutely gorgeous. Everything whose beauty is enhanced by sparkle or shine did just that. Breakfast was delicious, prepared and served up by solicitous staff. The owner greeted us when we arrived and made us feel very welcomed. It was a great stay in a historic Inn. Anyone heading to Tilton and Lakes region should book there.
