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.
