Still way under-staffed.

Much better than last time we visited.

A 16th century coaching house set next to the River Tees and short walking distance from the Roman fort and bridge. The inn is loaded with history and the inside reflects this with beams on the ceiling, steps outside that lead to nowhere, the infamous grandfather clock and a huge ballroom at one end. The bedroom was the largest we've ever stayed in, although parts were showing it's age which is to be expected with such a historical building, it offered everything we could want, iron and ironing board in the cupboard, stands to put your suitcase on, a large walk in shower with complimentary shampoo, conditioner and bodywash, and most importantly tea and coffee making facilities. We had an evening meal in the bar area and the food was really good (homemade sausage & mash), the staff were friendly and attentive and made you feel at home. There was plenty of parking either across the road or in front of the inn itself. Our bedroom overlooked the road and was surprisingly quiet, but seeing as the walls are really thick and the windows had secondary glazing it wasn't surprising it was quiet. I would like to mention that if you're after looking for things that go bump in the night, be prepared.... I spoke to the Manager who said go have a look in the ballroom, so off me and the wife go, it's dimly lit and the ballroom is pitch black, so as i walk up to the glass doors they suddenly open! Talk about jump, i nearly lost the small cup of milk i was carrying!! There stood one of the bar staff, she'd just been to collect something and was on her way back to the bar... So now i had her and my wife laughing their heads off and me suffering a mild heart attack... Anyways we had a great couple of nights and we will be back again

Located at top of stairs near a fire door which was quite loud as people went to their rooms. Shower tray also over flowed quickly.

There was a horrible creaky floor above our room and the occupant was up all night. This did effect our sleep. A few cobwebs in the room loose it a couple point for cleanliness but otherwise, perfect.

The location was stunning. Will be back in summer to make the most of the location on a lighter night. The cost was great. Meal and bar prices totally acceptable. Room was on a par if not slightly better than a Premier inn.

My room was a little cool but couldn’t find a thermostat to switch on the radiator. However once in bed it was cosy.

Great location near A1M. Nice friendly staff and my room was actually a two bed apartment. I liked being able to park right outside my door. The food was good and a nice selection of beers & wine. The bed was very comfortable and the bed linen nice and white and crisp.

I understand it is a very old building but the place needs a freshen up with regards to decor, carpets etc. There are no taxi services nearby, all mostly coming from Darlington so don't expect to be able to order one without it being well in advance. Even though it was a Saturday night, the bar was almost empty.

The room was good for what we paid. Location was ideal for what we wanted, although it's a short drive to the nearest shop. Staff were polite and bar area was good.

Liked it all

The hospitality was great, and a fantastic authentic pub feel

Few minor updates on decor needed and finishing touches. In room shower tray needed fixing, paper on ceiling peeling away and carpets could do with a clean or replacing with laminate.

Quiet location with a nice country side pub spacious rooms and good facilities

Bit more variety for coeliac travellers might have been nice, but that's an industry wide problem.

Fantastic location, really easy to explore the countryside and Museums. Food well cooked, quickly served.

There was damage to the catch on the gate into the room enclosure. It was reported as dangerous to reception on my departure. This was the only problem.

Location for me perfect as it on my route home. The George is alway a friendly place.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t like.

It’s a wonderful location right on the banks of the river Tees. We had a room in the main building and a family member had one of the cottages. Both were very good. Well looked after and clean. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious and well presented.

Would have preferred to stay in the pub rather than one or the outbuildings. Room could have been a little cleaner. Ants were present on worktop close to food

Beautiful location. Pub had a lot of character, very friendly atmosphere
