Peak Cavern

We went here as a last min day out. Booked the tickets online which is a good idea incase its too busy. Had a very enjoyable time, Chris the tour guide was both knowledgable and engaging. Would recommend this to anyone

A great tour of Peak cavern (the devil’s arse) The tour guide was absolutely fantastic, funny and extremely entertaining. His knowledge was excellent and the demonstrations of how the rope was made was fab! Ideal for families as they encourage them to partake. Well worth a visit. It was £22 per ticket for adults, not sure how much it is for children. Will probably stipulate on the website.

A good tour but there is a very low point in the cave system where you have to bend almost double to get through. Guide was very informative. Family really enjoyed it.

Was my 4th of 5 Peak District Caverns in 3 days. All were different and added to my knowledge of mining and geology in the area. Peak Cavern is the Show Cave with LED lights and large spaces. Easy to walk and Will was a good tour guide. The Fitch of Bacon was astounding hanging from the ceiling of a large chamber like an angel's wing. The Mary Queen of Scots glow formation is also stunning. The rope-making part of the tour was interesting and educational. All around a nice relaxing tour.

Love this cave!! Went to a goth tribute act gig here and it was amazing!! The atmosphere was unreal. Lighting and sound engineering were on point, and all the staff were lovely! The walk up to the Cavern is an experience in itself. Beautiful buildings and bridges over the stream. And when we left the gig, the mist had settled over the stream, giving it a really spooky look. Almost as if someone had created it exactly for a goth gig hahaha. It was great. Really enjoyed this place and would love to come back again!

Blessed to be on Wayne's very last Cave tour. Enjoy your retirement Wayne :) The tour was short and sweet (1 hour) very informative, interesting and funny. I helped weave a rope and cone home with it. If it's raining and you have an hour definitely worth a visit.

Peak Cavern in Castleton is worth the visit. Of course its moniker "The Devil's Arse," always brings a chuckle so there will be folks who comes for the funny name but stays invested for the memorable experience they have by the end. The tour lasts about an hour, and the ticket price feels justified. Our guide was excellent as he was engaging and adept at working the crowd. The rope-making demonstration at the beginning was informative and interactive. As we ventured deeper into the cave, the guide shared historical insights and stories that added depth to the experience. At one point, we had to bend low to navigate through a narrow section, which added a sense of adventure. I would recommend buying tickets were available on-site, as we visited during a school term break, and still people got tickets walking up to the counter . While online booking is an option, it's not necessary. However, parking in Castleton can be limited, so it's advisable to arrive early to secure a spot. Overall, Peak Cavern offers an engaging and informative experience that combines natural beauty with historical insights. It's a worthwhile visit if you are in the area.

We visited the cave today and so so glad we did! It is tucked out of the way a little but there is a car park very close to the entrance. We had Chris as our tour guide and he was fantastic! We learnt a lot and he was extremely funny to! My son helped to make some rope and the whole tour from start to finish is really interesting. We had our dog with us to. I would 100% recommend this cavern!
