We can schedule various events for you and your guests while you stay at The King George Inn! Here are some ideas for fun things to do.
Building History Tours
The King George Inn has a ton of history from the front of the building that was the original Governors' Mansion to the back of the building that was added on by the Provincial Government when the building was purchased and became the Olde Cobourg Provincial Jail.

Jail Escape Games
This is a fun and very unique experience for you and your guests! We can book a Jail Escape Game for you and your guests for your enjoyment.
Unlike a traditional Escape Game, our games are played in this real jail where you will go from room to room solving clues to get your "Pardon" and "Get of Jail Free Card".

Cobourg's outdoor rink is well maintained including a Zamboni to clear the ice on a regular basis, washroom facilities onsite and warm room to lace up your skates.

We offer delicious dining at our sister restaurant just one block from the King George Inn.
The Cat and Fiddle is Cobourgs longest running British Pub and banquet facility.
We can arrange for groups up to 50 people to stay and to dine at the Cat and Fiddle.
