I visited the caves in April 2009, and although the caves themselves were fantastic, the tour was very disappointing. There were far too many people in the tour group, and the guide stayed at the front of the group, so if you're at the back, like I was, you couldn't hear anything. The group was rushed through the caves, and... more

When we tried to go (twice) caves were closed because of high water levels (fair enough - it was a wet week). Not complaining about that, but the staff there were AWFUL.

I have had 2 parties down these caves and all of my friends have loved it! They are great to go down if you have never done so before. They point out lots of weird and wonderful things like "Witche's Fingers" etc. A must see attraction. more

White Scar Cave is excellent! What else can I say - this is britain's longest show cave and is a good miles walk from start to finish with 98 steps on the way! You are on a infomative guided tour which lasts 80 minutes and provided with hard hats (once inside you can see why!) - BE WARNED it does... more
