Local Attractions
Just 3km away from The George Hotel is Wickstead Park. Children and adults alike will have a fun filled day on the massive playground and modern fairground rides.
Boughton House, the Northamptonshire home of the Dukes of Buccleuch and Queensberry, is an impressive stately home 8km away. This beautiful house is open to the public daily and is certainly worth seeing if only for the fabulous furniture and artwork in the house.
The Newlands Shopping Centre has an excellent selection of shops and is very local to The George Hotel.
Childhood home of Princess Diana, Althorp House, makes a lovely day out and is notable, of course, for being the final resting place of the Princess. The house and gardens are truly beautiful and a definite must see while staying in Kettering.
