Description: Guarding the entrance to the Northern Lakes, with spectacular Lake Ullswater only 4 miles away, the Historic town of Penrith was once the capital of the old county of Cumberland, providing a vital trading link between North and South. As times have changed so has Penrith, now no longer the capital of modern day Cumbria it is non the less just as vital and even more accessible by all major forms of transport (M6, and main line railway station). Penrith is that ideal evolution ­ a modern day market town retaining all the Old World charm of a time gone by.

Situated in the attractive town centre of Penrith, amongst the mix of traditional shops and charming arcades, stands The George Hotel. This proud building steeped in over 300 years of History, provides the ideal base from which to explore the Lake District and Eden Valley.
