The George, located at 5 Stamford Rd in Weldon, Corby, is a charming traditional English pub and inn that stands as a testament to centuries of hospitality. Set within a former coaching inn dating back to the 1600s, The George offers guests an authentic experience woven with rich history and genuine warmth.
Visitors often praise The George for its lively yet welcoming atmosphere. Despite its popularity and bustling weekend crowds, as noted by guests like Mike Webb, the staff remain friendly and attentive, ensuring a memorable stay. The pub’s ambiance, complete with a grand fireplace, evokes the timeless charm of an old English inn, which Rach Adams beautifully highlights while appreciating the well-prepared food and engaging biweekly quizzes that add vibrant local character.
What truly sets The George apart is its sincere hospitality paired with thoughtful amenities. It welcomes families and pets alike, offering free Wi-Fi and free parking that enhance comfort and convenience. While it lacks some modern amenities like air conditioning and a fitness center, it compensates with a warm, smoke-free environment and a well-stocked bar. Nicky McKenna’s fondness for the “best chips in the world” perfectly captures the authentic home-cooked feel that permeates the venue.
Strategically positioned just minutes from local transport links and attractions like Rockingham Motor Speedway and Lyveden New Bield, The George serves as both a cozy retreat and a gateway for discovery. Moses Pilolo’s playful nod to the “Guinnessing” experience underscores the pub’s dedication to classic British pub culture done right.
In essence, The George is more than just a place to eat or sleep; it is a living piece of England's heritage, where tradition meets genuine care. It invites visitors to slow down, share stories by the fire, and savor comforting fare. For those seeking a richly textured and authentic English pub experience steeped in history and community spirit, The George is an exceptional destination.

I recently visited Weldon with a group of friends for a long weekend. We visited both of the pubs in the village and found both to be friendly and welcoming, despite both being very busy on Friday and Saturday night. We visited the George Weldon on the Saturday for something to eat and a few beers. The pub was very busy but also friendly. We couldn't initially get seats together, due to the size of our group, but managed to get a couple of tables together a little later. We all ordered food, which was really tasty, service was very good and reasonably priced. We stayed for a few more beers, and couldn't fault the place. Lovely atmosphere, great service and very friendly. Well worth a visit.
Back in business, Guinnessing as u should and even better with a signature on the top
Love being in here when I come to the village to see my parents. Traditional old English pub with grand fire place. Food is quite nice too and they hold an excellent biweekly quiz. I can't comment on the rooms.
We only went for drinks. A warm friendly environment, really friendly staff and probably the best chips in the world. Just like my Nan used to make them xx
