The room was freezing! The heating only came on for a couple of hours. The room was ok comfy bedding, not worth £175 though. The shower made a squealing noise and the bath tap dripped all night. Breakfast alright (beans were cold). The staff at the bar and restaurant were commendable.

Great weekend break
After reading a review in a paper we decided to try for ourselves. The George and Dragon staff were so welcoming and friendly easy to talk to and very helpful. Our room was clean and tidy with lovely en-suite shower room , soft towels and toiletries . Breakfast and evening meal was delicious all staff made sure our dining experience was so comfortable. We shall return.

Excellent base for the Lake District
Very comfortable and relaxing stay. One of the best hotels we've stayed at in the UK for cleanliness, comfort and service.

Just back from a wonderful two days at the George and Dragon in Clifton. If you are looking for a relaxing break on the eastern edge of the Lake District then look no further! Handy for trips to Lowther Castle and for walks around Ullswater. We couldn’t fault G&D’s bedrooms, bathrooms, bar or dining room. Food was delicious (special mention for the cheese soufflé and the chocolate brownie with ice cream) and the service outstanding. Star performers were Daisy, who knows how to make a really mean flat white, and Mike, a perfect host behind the bar. If I had but one small grouse it would be that the mark up on the wines was on the high side, but then again everything is more expensive nowadays. We really enjoyed our stay.

Really positioned whether you are heading north or south on the M6. Room was large clean and comfortable. Good value for money with friendly staff who made us very welcome. The staff really made the stay. Dinner and breakfast were delicious, particularly breakfast. Our room had the kitchen extractor fan outside it, but it really didn’t disturb our night at all. What we did have was a very large, really comfortable bed.

This is an excellent pub all round. It's on a main road so it doesn't have that village feel like the other two in the Lowther range (Queen's Head and Askham Hall) but there are some great walks nearby along the river and over the hill to Pooley Bridge. We had room 5 which is of a good size and has a large bathroom. If you are a light sleeper you may prefer a room at the back away from the main road. The food (dinner and breakfast) was excellent, far superior to usual pub fare and service was with a smile. We were caught out by late check-in of 4pm (we should have phoned in advance). The dinner bed and breakfast deal of £240 for two was brilliant. We will certainly be back.
