About George Hotel, Hathersage

An owner-managed hotel, stylishly maintained and presented, ideally located for walking, bird watching and cycling in the heart of Derbyshire's Peak District.

Formerly a 500-year-old inn, this highly rated Derbyshire hotel in the heart of the scenic Peak District has been transformed into a relaxing haven in which to unwind.

Facilities

George's Restaurant is extremely popular - book a table when reserving your accommodation as tables cannot be guaranteed upon your arrival at the Hotel. The recent refurbishment in George's restaurant lends a contemporary feel, with cool colours, wooden flooring and feature lighting - a modern style complimenting Helen’s modern, innovative style of cooking. You will find the service friendly, efficient and relaxed with a minimum of fuss or interruption. Formality is not on the menu!

The George is available on an exclusive use basis for Weddings and private celebrations and events, ensuring your guest’s private use of the hotel facilities, public areas and bedrooms throughout their stay, from the pre-arranged arrival time of your function until after breakfast the following morning. Of course, this also means our team at The George will be at your disposal.

Another advantage of choosing The George for your wedding is the access it affords to our own personal wedding advisor. Kathryn Joseph has a great deal of experience in organising weddings and will be able to advise you every step of the way to ensure that you have a superb day.
