George Washington Inn

Had a very comfortable stay in a peaceful and very well appointed room. The hotel is tastefully decorated and has a good carpark. Received a warm, friendly welcome on arrival by the proprietors and staff, who were very helpful. We enjoyed a delicious evening meal and a substantial, hearty breakfast. The hotel is about a 10minutes drive from the M6 J35 and is in the small village of Warton, Warton Crag is a pleasant walk nearby.

The room was lovely. Shower a bit small in the en suite but otherwise tip top. I was worried about being over a pub but needn’t have been. Good night’s sleep and no trouble at all. Hospitality ok. A bit stilted and not overly welcoming on arrival and service at breakfast was a bit high and mighty but still decent enough. Note the door into the bar for breakfast isn’t locked, despite looking like it is. Why they don’t just open it I don’t know but I could tell I was considered thick for not knowing this. Breakfast itself was excellent. However note you only have a 30 minute window (8.30-9.00) to take it and it’s the full English or nothing (apart from cereals). Not even a choice of eggs. Not a problem for us but best be aware of this. Quality of ingredients was excellent as was the cooking. Price was decent too. Overall very good.
