sarahp   10 #1 Posted July 28, 2008 I'm off to camp at Carsington Water at the weekend. Maybe do some windsurfing if the wind decides to materialise! Can anyone recommend any good local pubs within walking distance (or failing that a short drive) near to the carsington fields camp site?

Mr Goose   10 #4 Posted July 29, 2008 The Miner's Arms at Brassington does good food / beer as well - and that is also about 2 miles away.  (well the food was good about 10 years ago!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

jacq   10 #7 Posted July 30, 2008 Do you know the Knockerdown actualy has a camp site attached so you can go to the pub then just tumble into your tent? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
