Could you run this pub?

Take the reins of the Grey Horses, a picturesque traditional village pub on the outskirts of Worksop, located in Carlton in Lindrick.

 Now is an excellent time to take on this business, with the council planning to build more homes and infrastructure to grow the current village into a larger community.

A recent investment has already been completed, including new external signage and lighting, along with redecoration throughout the main trading areas and toilet facilities.

The Grey Horses is one of three pubs in the village, each serving its own local community. This pub offers a welcoming, community‑focused atmosphere paired with a tasty pub food offer.

The main lounge offers around fifty covers with an open‑plan feel leading directly to the garden. Locals and regulars particularly love the beautiful beer garden, which enjoys the evening sun and plays host to a range of events including the annual village festival. It features sixteen benches and provides a fantastic space for entertainment, activities and private functions.

The business also benefits from a traditional tap room, an ideal spot for the community to gather over a pint (or two). The cask corner offers live sports sports and space for table games. The Grey Horses is a previous winner of the North Notts CAMRA Village Pub of the Season (Summer 2023).

On the first floor, you’ll find the private accommodation and a function room that is currently underused. A savvy operator will see the potential in this space, with access available from both the car park and the main lounge.

Location

Carlton in Lindrick sits in beautiful countryside north‑east of Worksop, offering access to a range of local attractions including Langold Country Park Lakes and Creswell Crags.

Ideal operator

You’ll deliver a quality mid‑market food offer while also maintaining an excellent range of cask products throughout the year.

You will enjoy village life and take pride in building strong local relationships within the community.

A proven background in food operations is essential, along with the ability to deliver a consistent traditional pub menu, especially a crowd‑pleasing Sunday roast.

Accommodation

This excellent publican accommodation has two bedrooms, kitchen & spacious lounge
