Review

There are caverns and caves dotted all over the British Isles and Ireland some big, some small, but they all share one massive similarity, the brilliant staff that work there and the stories that they all tell. Here at Pooles Cavern & Country Park, the staff really do know their stuff and no matter what questions I asked of them, they had an answer for all of them, this really impressed me and the tour guides really do enhance the overall experience here. The entrance fee isn’t extortionate and they have a very reasonably priced cafe adjacent to the visitor centre. I can’t finish without telling you about the Buxton Country Park which is located right next to the Cavern Visitor Centre. Complete with a ‘Go Ape’ this country park is really pretty and with around 40 hectares of woodland to work with, you could be busy walking all day, as you discover all the flora and fauna that help to make this country park one not to be missed.
