Such a cute little hotel. The inn keeper was extremely nice and attentive. There was a great variety for breakfast each morning and not to forget delicious. We loved our room which had a TV, mini fridge and bath tub with jets. The wrap around porch and garden gave the hotel serenity. The location was great as well as we found plenty of walking trails and festivals in the area. We loved our stay and would most definitely book there again.

Having Bnb dozens of time from Cape May to Hawaii we were extremely happy with our relaxing weekend at the Whistling Swan. Audry & Everitt are attentive and responsive Inn keepers serving delicious home made breakfasts. The building is well maintained, updated, clean with all conveniences. The grounds are and beautiful and the area provides many things to do. We were are to go to Willowwood Arboretum in Chester and take in it's beautiful free grounds including the smell of lilacs. In dddition we were happy to wake up to the beautiful sounds of the songbirds. Thanks and Best of Luck to Audry and Everitt.

Beautiful Victorian property full of fountains, ponds, and secluded seating areas. The house is an extremely well-maintained example of the craftmanship and care devoted to the Victorian mansion. Big comfortable bed in a clean room. Great made-to-order breakfast of unique recipes with the other interesting guests. It was an outstanding B&B experience.

My husband and I were warmly welcomed by the host to this lovely inn. We choose it based both on location and availability of a charging station for our EV. The host recommended a local restaurant that was terrific. There were steep stairs to climb to our room and being an older person with a bad back, I appreciated the assistance carrying our luggage up and down the stairs. The breakfast in the morning was very nice. All in all, a pleasant place to stay!

The Victorian house was beautiful and the breakfasts were amazing. Very much appreciated the emails just prior to our trip with sight-seeing suggestions and directions. Both of the owners are lovely people - warm and easy to talk to. We felt very much at ease and thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Inn.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Whistling Swan Inn. The hosts are delightful and very service-oriented. The bed was VERY comfy and the neighborhood quiet so we slept like babies. Breakfast was delightful with a good selection, and the Grab n Go bag for breakfast on our last morning was delicious! I would definitely come back - can't wait to see the garden when it's in full bloom! We give this B&B a big thumbs up!!

We attended a murder mystery weekend which was so much fun. Our hosts were wonderful and the atmosphere was great. We would totally attend other events there. I’m local but decided to stay the weekend with my sister and niece. The room we stayed in was spacious and we had a mini fridge in our room. The food was very good. Our breakfast on Sunday was so yummy. I would totally recommend attending one of their events and staying overnight!

We were tired of lining corporate pockets when visiting grandchildren in Byram and decided to give this Inn a try instead. We were initially hesitant as we are very private people and the whole AirBNB and B&B thing, in our previous experience, tends to be a bit intrusive on your privacy at times. Not the case here. Left us alone and was everything we wanted and nothing we didn't. The homemade breakfast the next day by one of the owners was terrific. The room was clean and charming. We will be utilizing this Inn each time we visit Byram going forward!

We had a lovely time at the Whistling Swan Inn for our anniversary. Our room was beautiful, with incredible bathroom with Jacuzzi. Romantic, sweet, quiet - perfect for a quick getaway. Incredible value for the price. This was back in June 2021.
