About us

The George and Dragon is an 18th century coaching inn. It has been lovingly restored by local craftsmen who have reused stone, slate flags, design and colours sympathetic to the Georgian period.

Comfy sofas, bare wooden tables and intimate alcoves make it a perfect place to relax and unwind. Photographs, paintings, old prints and archive images tell stories of the Lowther Estate’s unique heritage. And over time, more stories will be added.

When you visit the George and Dragon in Cumbria, you can enjoy a pint of local ale, relax with a glass of fine wine and indulge in the Lowther produce, feeling that you’re somewhere rather unique.

We had a lovely meal last night, we all enjoyed what we chose. I thought the canapés were excellent, different and the trout nibble especially so. We had 2 courses and a delicious glass of wine. Good atmosphere, decor and service. Would recommend to anyone who just wants something abit different.

Very much enjoyed our stay. Lovely staff, friendly and chatty. Good local beers and a great menu with well prepared food. We liked the open cosy fires

First class meal and service. We shared pork scratchings and 2 excellent starters. For main course, I enjoyed a steak while my wife and her sister loved their lamb. We were so impressed we also ate 2 puddings between us. Best meal out this year, thank you.

An absolute pleasure to have lunch accompanied with 2 locally brewed ales. The nibbles were all first class, the suet pudding filled with venison, pheasant, partridge and duck was cooked to perfection. No room for a dessert, just a latte. A truly great lunchtime experience 👍🏻

We decided to stop off at the pub on the off chance we could get a table for lunch. We were lucky and I'm so pleased as it was the best meal we've had in a long time. The food was fresh and made from scratch, it makes such a difference even to something as simple as relish. I believe the meat etc comes from the local farm. The dishes were all so delicious sounding it was hard to choose. The menu wasn't just typical 'pub grub' even being gluten free I was well catered for. The staff were super friendly even making sure the dog was looked after. The pub itself was absolutely beautiful inside. We were so impressed we're going back in a month and I can't wait!
