Travellers Rest, Bedworth: Bill Ford has decided to take a break from the trade and John Harris & Nicola Tindall have taken over the running of the pub with a 2-year lease.

2024 Good Beer Guide

CAMRA’s 2024 Good Beer guide, released on 28th September, featured seven Nuneaton & Bedworth pubs. We are particularly pleased by the return of the Attleborough Arms , making their fourth appearance in the guide after an absence of 6 years. Congratulations also go out to our two local breweries who have clocked up 50 years in the guide between them: Church End Brewery Tap (20 years) and the Lord Nelson Inn (30 years). No doubt they will be celebrating with special brews to commemorate their achievements.
