Our Story

The Thorold Arms is home to our award-winning restaurant, where exceptional food, warm hospitality and a relaxed countryside setting come together. Established in 2021, it was born from the success of our renowned dining concept at The Bell. Following its closure during the pandemic, we brought the same passion for outstanding food and service here, creating a destination for memorable dining experiences.

Nestled in the picturesque Lincolnshire countryside, our kitchen celebrates the very best seasonal produce, with an emphasis on high-quality, locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. Alongside a carefully curated wine list, guests can enjoy regularly changing seasonal specials and our much-loved Sunday roasts, whether joining us for a leisurely lunch, an intimate dinner or a special occasion.
