We are beautiful, traditional village pub with wooden beams, open fires, and a large sunny beer garden. Based in the heart of a stunning village with lovely local walks and just a short distance from the airport.
The pub has several different rooms and snug area’s which make great spaces for informal meetings or special events.
We are dog and child friendly (though do ask that both two and four legged children are supervised at all times) and have car parking to the front and rear. We are a short walk from the Nottingham to Coalville Skylink bus. Level access to the rear.

Lovely food, beer and dog friendly. Just what we were looking for.
Staff were very friendly and brought water and treats for our dog.
Highly recommended.

Amazing food
We chose here as was central for meeting friends who lived far from us . We had Sunday roast lamb and it was delicious. Very filling . Lovely welcoming pub and dog friendly which was another reason for choosing this pub . Would highly recommend and a credit to the new owners and wish them all the best in their new venture

A must pub to visit and dine.
This Pup was taken over in December 2021, so the lady owner told me....Wow wow and wow again.... a must visit Pub. We were on our way to East Midlands Airport and thought we would have dinner. Looking on TripAdvisor we saw that the Plough Inn was close by. Sunday dinner was our choice. Roast beef and a Pork with crackling dinner were our choices. What a meal. Everything cooked to perfection. Vegetables just right a little crunch when eating, not the slop you get at a carvery. Beef and Pork lovely flavour, and the gravy was the finishing touch. Pudding Apricot crumble and custard awesome. You need to try this pub, service and staff are amazing. Well done The Plough.

Good local pub.
It’s so nice to see this pub re-opened with lovely, friendly, helpful staff, excellent choice of beers (that matters to my husband 😂) and wonderful food. Well worth a visit.
