Jasmin & Richards Wedding

From start to finish all the staff at The George Hotel were amazing! Even when changing management half way through! They couldn’t have been more accommodating & helpful! Very responsive to emails & phonecalls! We also live 50 miles from venue & every time we contacted we had such peace of mind that our day would go swimmingly. The packages they offered were amazing & well priced. Food & service was also amazing! Really couldn’t have wished for a better day! Had a lot of compliments by saying it was one of the best weddings people had been to! Couldn’t recommend enough!
(A few pictures of our table decor/seating arrangement & Dj are on this ad!)

Gemma and Andrews wedding

We held our wedding reception at the George back in 2010. Was a fabulous venue, convenient location for relatives travelling from all over the country and affordable accommodations. The building itself retains some beautiful period features. We felt very looked after leading up to the day, great communication with the team, the tables were set up the day before for us to add our own centrepieces and decor. The food was fantastic at a great price and all of our guests enjoyed sharing our special day. I would highly recommend

Above and beyond

September 2009 we had our wedding reception at the George (sorry about the ceiling in the bar though!)
The whole team really made the day special and was the hottest day of 2009 as well so before anything else the staff served all our guests cold drinks to hydrate for free and then we had our welcome drinks. Everyone really went above and beyond and made our day special.
Hubster and I are looking to book for a meal this month for 12/09/19 to celebrate our 10 years anniversary and I am excited to return (the last time we returned to celebrate 5 years we added to our family with twins lol)
