The George
About
The George is a historic 16th‑century pub tucked into the heart of Castleton, offering a quintessential British pub experience nestled against the backdrop of Peveril Castle and the scenic Peak District. With its timber‑framed façade and vaulted rooms, the venue preserves an authentic sense of heritage while serving a modern, sustainable menu built around fresh, locally sourced produce from its own kitchen garden. Guests can enjoy a wide range of dining options, from hearty pies and traditional pub fare to artisanal pizzas cooked in a rustic horsebox kitchen. The Beer Garden and rear patio provide relaxed outdoor seating with panoramic views, making it a favourite spot for both casual visitors and those looking to unwind after a day of hiking. In addition to its dining appeal, The George offers three super‑king rooms with en‑suite facilities, complete with a full English breakfast, catering to those seeking a comfortable overnight stay in a historic setting.
