The Charnwood Tavern is a little off the beaten track. The Decor is not the best. The welcome was great and the staff were really good. The food that came out of the kitchen looked really great and going by what we had was excellent. We had a Dressed Crab and prawn salad and they were outstanding. Highly recommended if in the area.

Having been here several times before the site is run by different people who I found to have very poor customer relations. Staff members behind the bar were swearing whilst children were present. The pub car park was like a tip with rubbish all around it. Unfortunately not a very welcoming place anymore. Location is ideal with great potential but changes are a must ie staff

Staff was so friendly and welcoming and the food was so good. The homemade steak pie special with homemade chip was so good 10 out of 10. My parents ham baguette with salad and homemade coleslaw was good and great value for money.

We stayed two nights mid week in our camper van at Charnwood Tavern. Luckily for us we had the whole field just for us, perfect ! The site was to the side of the pub, private and sheltered surrounded by trees. The toilets and shower block were very clean. We called in to the pub to find steak pie on the specials board we ordered and were not disappointed, it was so good we made a point of visiting the following night for the recommended carvery equally as delicious !. Good luck to the new owners and a big thankyou especially to Mark the manager who looked after us so well.

Staff were not interested in our concerns when we complained . Meal was the worst one we had whilst on holiday , gammon was poor quality , undercooked & full of not rendered fat . Chips were thin , more like chip sticks than chips . The whole operation is amateur, unfriendly, poor quality & verging on aggressive when complaining . Our advice AVOID , they need to up their game big time .

Called for a carvery. We were just in time as they ran/ sold out about half an hour after we got served. Mine was absolutely fine. The staff were friendly and the landlady a total joy. Even if she was stressing about running out of the carvery. I'll definitely go back.... The meat pie looks fab....

Yesterday we went for a Sunday carvery as we was getting our food I noticed lots of flies flying about I couldn’t believe my eyes what happened next they we’re actually on the Yorkshire puddings I said to the chef what was happening and his exact words were. What do you expect your in the country… I couldn’t believe what I heard, so my advice is do not go to this place if you don’t want to be ill !!!!

Staying nearby for a week and saw a sign for the Charnwood Tavern, so we had a meander down. It's a bit out of the way, but believe me, well worth the visit. Lovely quaint place and the lady who was behind the bar and also served our meals was lovely. My husband and I had the special which in his case was 16 ounce rump steak and mine was Barnsley chop. I haven't seen my husband enjoy a steak as much in years. Meat was cooked to perfection and so tender. Served with proper chips and peas. I had gravy on mine which was tasty and made with the meat juices. Prices very reasonable. Honestly we have been to more upmarket places and paid twice the price for food that wasn't half as tasty. So good, we're going back on Friday to sample the fish and chips.

All facilities were well kept and clean . Other groups arrived enjoyed the weather and socialising ... at a safe distance of course .

Do not follow government guidelines for campsites and allowed large group bookings, allowing large groups of people to get together with no marked pitches allowing people to camp wherever they wanted ! far to close to other campers with no regard for social distancing during the covid 19 pandemic or fire regulations will not be returning here

Just stayed on the campsite, unfortunately there were no guide lines where to pitch, no fire regulation spaces between or any COVID restrictions. We went out one day on return found we had been surrounded by a large group - maybe 8/9 camper vans. One had pitched right up up our awning, we moved away a few feet to give the recommended fire break- then 2 more vans arrived and parked right in front of us!!! We were now surrounded it spoilt our break away, we felt intimidated as they were a very large, noisy group. In these times of COVID there should have been more consideration, we were told we could move.... we had been there 3 days already why would we move? Would not recommend at all

We visited the Charnwood on 21st August and found a warm welcome from the new landlady Caroline. She is making a great job of bringing this pub back to life. There is a field at the side for camping and caravans with showers etc. Food was lovely and reasonable price. Looking forward to another visit on their official open weekend 31st August.Just be aware that at present they do not have a card or cash machine and can only take cash. Go give it a try and I think you will be pleased you did.

El Charnwood es un pub que está situado a unos 1 km fuera de la media de la ciudad principal de Skegness, un poco fuera de la ruta habitual pero bien señalizado desde la carretera principal a 52 Romano Bank Road. Está situado justo enfrente de la Iglesia con un amplio aparcamiento exterior. Entiendo que esto es un negocio familiar con Sue, ocupando en marzo de 2016. Ella y su personal fueron excelentes anfitriones y nos las arreglamos para acomodar nuestro grupo de 14 personas sin previo aviso. Mientras 'Curry noche ella también ofrecieron aquellos que no queríamos curry, salchichas y puré de patatas, que era muy bueno de ella. En £6,00 por cabeza las comidas eran también muy razonable. Las comidas eran abundantes y muy bien preparado.El horario de pub es muy limpio y bien decorado con asientos piues como opción alternativa para los días de calor o watm noches. Pero es Sue y su equipo merecen reconocimiento por una noche maravillosa que no era teniendo en mente que nuestro grupo en ella sin desended antes reserva anticipada. Hemos estado en otros lugares donde han sido rechazados por razones que no deseo revelar aquí, pero en el que nos Charnwood recibidos con los brazos abiertos y nos hicieron sentir como en casa.Hay un billar o snooker (perdón, nunca puedes decir la diferencia entre los dos) una mesa y un tablero de dardos y los miembros del personal se ofreció a jugar algunos juegos con algunos de nuestros miembros que tenia que haber eran todos adultos con necesidades especiales y discapacidades de aprendizaje.Si quieres cenar fuera, lejos del bullicio de la ciudad principal de Skegness, entonces no puedes equivocarte al dar este establecimiento una visita. Hay una rampa que da acceso a cualquiera dentro de una silla de ruedas o tiene cualquier otro problema de movilidad.Grupos de pequeño a grande pueden alojarse aquí, pero puede ser educado para dar una llamada de antemano Sue para asegurarse de que puede acomodar si tienes un grupo grande. Visitamos en septiembre de 2016, que es el final de la temporada turística así el pub no estaba tan concurrido como sospecho que normalmente es.Ciertamente regresaremos de nuevo en el futuro.

Decidimos ir a nuestra caravana para la Navidad y una comida para la primera vez. Estaba un poco preocupada porque me dieron una llamada de teléfono la semana anterior porque mi saldo no llegamos pero el registro era en el post (pero ellos algunas personas sólo pagamos el día! ). En esa llamada me preguntaron si había algo que hacer con las cinco Campanas en Butterwick pero ya que la cola era malo que no me preguntaron por qué me dijeron que. Yo estaba enfadado, ni siquiera sabía Butterwick tenía un pub! Así que llegamos media hora antes de nuestra reserva, nos dieron una copa y esperamos. No estaba fría, hacía mucho frío! Almuerzo de Navidad con el abrigo! Fuimos a nuestra mesa y la tela de mesa de papel había sido utilizado antes y estaba sucia. Había Koskenkorva y salsa Brägele (pero, ¿por qué pensaron que era necesario incluir un plato de salsa de menta cuando nuestro formulario de reserva en la mesa no incluían ningún cordero. Tuvimos que pedir sal y pimienta pero las ollas estaban tan sucias que no utilizamos. limpian cubiertos como mejor que pude con servilleta! La comida estaba bien, pero la habitación estaba tan fría la comida se hacía frío rápido, así que no pude terminar! El precio incluye café y tarta Misa del Gallo y como era tan frío y de un frío, el aire frío me estaba haciendo toser más y necesitaba una bebida caliente. Tuve que pedir estas así que podíamos hacer y bajar. Café por 2 llegamos en un 'pot masiva de té', fue sólo ligeramente de color agua y no se podían beber. Dos mince pies fueron presentados en uno al platillo. En el comienzo había música de Navidad de antecedentes, pero la pantalla de televisión era pronto y nos vimos en escuchando el Von vagabundo historia. Había luces de Navidad alrededor de la habitación, pero no han cambiado. La chimenea no estaba siendo equipada y conseguimos no calefactor - en algún punto de la puerta queda abierta, así llenando la habitación con humo (genial para mi tos! ). Algunas personas cerca de nosotros había estado allí para una comida de domingo pero dijo que esto era la peor comida que se lo habían pasado y no volveremos. Nosotros también, no volveremos allí, ni siquiera una copa, esperaba más bienvenidos y ambiente ya que era día de Navidad.

A character pub in a country setting surprisingly only minutes away from busy Skegness roads, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the warm welcome that we received. The landlord here is relatively new and has made a great effort to make improvements lately and for those who have not visited the pub for a long time - its worth going to have another look. Outside was attractively decorated with hanging baskets and flowers making a nice area for a drink outside too. Inside there is a spacious eating area and a conservatory and everywhere looked clean. There is a very wide range of food on the menu. Our food (we ordered steaks) were well cooked and with ample portions and all the trimmings. There were starters on the menu and also some home made desserts. We had some lemon cheesecake which was also homemade and delicious. We were surprised that considering how nice everywhere was that there were not more customers there. I am sure that this pub has improved much recently and I hope that the landlord will be given a chance to succeed. Its probably just a matter of people realising that its there. I understand that Sunday roasts are also served.

As the title really we stayed here for 3 nights over the late May bank holiday. The campsite was decent flat grass that had be cut unlike some places. The toilet/shower block looked to be brand new, tho was a few problems wit the water feed to the toilets tho they are aware of this and are sorting it out. The food in the pub was great, all fresh cooked and plenty of it! the beer was a decent price and they have house spirits available too.

Every time we go to Skegness we make time for at least one trip to The Charnwood Tavern.The food is excellent, all fresh and homemade grub!!The decor is what you would expect from a little village pub, but the food and atmosphere certainly make up for what it lacks in fancy decor.You are always made to feel welcome, and with a 5 star hygiene rating, this is one place you can not go wrong for a bite to eat.

Came back here after thoroughly enjoying it the last time we came. Food was very good apart from my husbands crumble wasn't cooked. It was the atmosphere that was the problem. It was smelly which my 4 year old kindly pointed out very loudly I think it was something they were burning on the log burner. There were a lot of people in who must be local patrons as they all knew each other so we felt a little like we are intruding. Also they had brought their dogs! The dogs were well behaved but I really don't like sharing a restaurant with animals sorry. Probably won't come back next year unless it has a full refurb!

A hidden gem. Situated next to a lovely church. May appear in need of a lick paint on exterior but don't be fooled interior is warm and inviting but the best thing is the food. M eals are home cooked by Dean and the range of dishes extensive. Try home made curries and steak sizzlers. You won't be disappointed.

Greeted by a not so welcoming host, ordered food that was to be fair "cheap" but when it came we soon realised why, my partner and I both had the ribs that we had to cave the tough meat off. My daughter had the pizza and the cheese tasted foul. We visited based on the previous reviews but wont be coming back again!

On the last day of our stay in skegness we decided to try the charnwood after reading the reviews on here. On arriving first impressions were it was lovely out in the country side easy to forget you are only 5mins from butlins. The place was pretty empty so with a little apprehension we went inside. What a lovely meal we had. There was lots of choice on the menu of all types of cuisine and only £6.25. All the food was home cooked even the chips were obviously hand cut portions were plenty. Deserts were only £2.50 and they were huge. If we had come here the first night we would have ate here every night. If you are looking for somewhere to eat a really nice restaurant quality meal go to the charnwood you won't be disappointed.

Staying in Aby village for a week's holiday and had to try the local pub. Exterior looks a bit "tired" but don't be put off - inside it's friendly. cosy and lots of character. Excellent choices of dishes on the menu and "daily specials" board - we especially appreciated the choice of gluten-free options and Dawn was happy to go through each option in detail. Good portions and served hot! Very tasty and wholesome. Wide range of dessert options too and it was evident from conversations with other diners, that Dawn would also be happy to adapt these just to suit individual requirements. Obviously very deserving of the many awards over many years.
