The George Inn

“A Georgian gem in St Mary Bourne”

Our first project with the Adder Pub Company, this beautifully historic, former coaching inn was a pleasure to work on.

The building is a fine example of late Georgian architecture and is Grade II listed, this presented us with a number of challenges in the design but also meant we could celebrate and highlight the fantastic period features within the scheme, including original fireplaces, panelling and flooring.

Our client also wanted to create a number of boutique style bedrooms and we proposed a simple, almost Scandinavian aesthetic with these which also ties in with the overall design theme of providing customers a “home from home”

We restored the original bar areas, including the servery and the fireplaces, creating beautiful snug spaces for customers. A bespoke, wide oak character floor board was sourced for the main bar and dining areas. Alongside this we introduced period wallpapers, light fittings and one-off antique furniture pieces.
