The Splash delivers the kind of food that reminds you why simple done right always wins…read more The Grimsby beer battered haddock is the standout. Fresh flaky fish wrapped in a crisp golden batter that actually stays light, served with proper cut chips, mushy peas, and a squeeze of fresh lemon that ties it all together. This is classic coastal comfort food executed with confidence. The homemade steak and ale pie is just as impressive. Tender chunks of steak slow cooked in a rich ale gravy, topped with a golden pastry crust that feels handmade, not factory. Creamed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and beef gravy complete the plate and turn it into a full on comfort feast. Warm service, honest portions, and food that speaks for itself. If you are in Louth and want a meal that delivers on flavor and tradition, this is a must stop.

The Splash is the name of the ford at Little Cawthorpe near louth. The pub stole the name. A lovely…read morewalk along the river or stream which is full of trout. Don't try and jump the ford..seen it hilariously attempted and SPASH! Drive through it. A good lunch can be had at the Royal Oak in Little Cawthorpe which is known locally as The Splash. Newly furbished bars, restaurants and 6 en-suite bedrooms. It also has a lovely lawned beer garden and childrens play area. It dates from the 17th century, and still retains its wonderful cosy and traditional country pub atmosphere. The Splash is approached through a shallow ford (the real Splash) in the village of Little Cawthorpe on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Set in an area of outstanding natural beauty just two miles from the Georgian market town of Louth, Lincolnshire. Little Cawthorpe is arguably the prettiest village on this eastern fringe of the Wolds and the name of its inn, the Royal Oak (together with countless others around the country) commemorates the occasion in 1651 when King Charles II hid for a day and a night in an oak tree to escape his enemies after the Battle of Worcester. A particularly picturesque part of the village is the ford, which provides the inn its alternative name of 'The Splash'. Both feature on the pub sign - and if you phone, the landlord and staff even answer 'The Splash'! Opposite the pub a house has a wall made entirely of wine bottles. At the other end of Little Cawthorpe the church stands on a hill above a large pond fed by seven springs. This is the source of the Long Eau, which flows over the 'splash' near the inn and eventually onwards to Saltfleet. The area has been landscaped over the years but even from the road some of the springs can still be seen bubbling away. The little church of St Helen's is quite modern as churches go, having been built in 1860. It is strikingly designed in red and black brick, though nowadays some may feel it is not too sympathetic with its surroundings. Across the road is the Manor House. This is a private property but may be glimpsed from the road and is a fine example, with its Dutch gables, of Tudor brickwork; it is dated 1673. Exploring the areaTwo miles away Muckton has lost its Holy Trinity, a church that had been rebuilt in 1878 but still contained original Norman archways when demolished in 1983. Now only the poignant, abandoned churchyard with a few gravestones remains along with a still splendid, though lonely looking lytchgate. Across the road on a gate pillar is a rare Victorian letterbox. It is an deal location for walking or cycling, and there is an 18 hole championship golf course 1 mileaway.

This pub / restaurant was a good find…read more We called in quite by chance after seeing the sign on the main road. We were pleasantly surprised, the place has been recently refurbished in an attractive polo theme (liked the polo mallet curtain rails ;-) and offers a good menu at reasonable prices. The owner fitted us in (prior to another booking) despite being fully booked. Service was prompt for obvious reasons but not pressured. We had a section of meals in our party of 9 and all were happy with our choices. Fish and chips was a generous serving with minted peas with cider and interesting addition. Sunday lunch was accompanied by red white and traditional carrots that made for an interesting talking point ( the red - beetroot coloured carrots were delicious) could have done with more mash though but still very tasty. The quirky jam jar glasses and blackboard booking names places added to the overall experience. Highly recommend it!

We have been here several times since the new couple, Christine and Kevin, took over and it's…read morelovely. They are very welcoming and the food has been very good, if you go on Mondays it is 2 for 1 on grills and we had 2 excellent rump steaks last time we went. It's a pity they are not busier as they really do deserve to be, the place is cosy, warm, clean and nicely decorated. It's unfortunate for them that the place has changed hands several times in the last few years and the reputation had suffered as a result. They also have a pool table, not so many pubs have now. Go on a sunny evening and sit outside by the river and watch the sunset, glorious!
