Radiators on throughout the entire stay with no option to turn off, which means the window had to be open at all times in order to prevent heat stroke, opening myself up to outside noise when trying to sleep. Otherwise decent stay.

Had stayed here a number of years ago before it closed. Was delighted to see that the main building which is full of character, had not been remodelled or modernised and all the great features retained. Especially the Grandfather clock. Great to have a pet friendly place to eat and stay. Friendly helpful staff. Will stay again.

fine family meet up place
it suited us fine for a family meet-up. a slight sadness was that we weren't able to use the river view restaurant for my daughters birthday evening meal but were very happy with the standard of the food served in the other room. some rooms were rather hot and another rather cool but no so much that we needed to get assistance

The George is one of the best places I have stayed in.
From start to finish (7 night work stay) the staff, facilities, food were well above what I had expected.
I would be looking to stay here again if I am required back in the area.
