The Miners Arms is a handsome stone built pub in the pretty village of Carsington which nestles in woodland at one end of the reservoir. The surrounding countryside provides a place to walk and cycle and their are great birdwatching options at Carsington Water. There is a beer garden and childrens play area and the pub does cycle hire. The remains of a prehistoric woolly rhino was found in the local Dream Cave but they no longer roam the area.
