The George, Backwell
Are you looking to run a traditional and picturesque country gem in the heart of Backwell village? Choose the George Inn, the perfect respite from the hustle & bustle of city life.
Pub and location
Guests love this rustic, dog-friendly pub with original features, including stone walls and wooden floors, with cosy and contemporary touches. There are seven en suite letting rooms on the first floor, a large beer garden at the rear and a good-sized car park for 20 to 30 cars.
For special occasions, guests feel whisked away in the private stonewalled function room, with space to laugh, drink and dine with loved ones. An imaginative and creative operator will make the most of this asset.
The George Inn is a fantastic place to be all year round. Whether guests are snuggling by the woodburning fire during the winter or catching the rays in the courtyard during the hotter months, the George Inn is the perfect place to chill, relax and hang out with friends. After a long day exploring the historic village, the large beer garden provides a refreshing backdrop for guests to indulge in delicious food and drink.
Every tipple is covered: real ales, craft beers, carefully curated cocktails, and a broad wine list. There are many cask beers to choose from.
The George sits in the heart of the village of Backwell in Somerset, about seven miles southwest of Bristol, just south of the A370 to Weston-Super-Mare. Blackwell shares its train station with Nailsea, and you can reach Bristol Temple Meads in 25 minutes.
With the Mendip hills on your doorstep, you’ll be proud to have an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty as your neighbour. Seize the opportunity to love your life in a paradise for walkers, with wild landscape ready for adventure with everything from short strolls to challenging gorges.
