HOLIDAYMAKERS in the UK have been raving about a "beautiful" underground cave – it has its own hidden lake & can even be rented out for private events. <\/p>\n
With the half-term holidays just around the corner, parents will be looking for things to do to keep their little ones entertained. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
One place that could do just that is a little-known tourist attraction in Liskeard, where they can see Cornwall's only underground slate mine. <\/p>\n
The Carnglaze Caverns are nestled 60m below ground. <\/p>\n
They were originally created by a group of local miners over 300 years ago, but have since opened as a tourist attraction. <\/p>\n
There are three separate caverns to explore, including one that has since been flooded and transformed into an underground lake. <\/p>\n
Visitors are given a safety briefing before going into the cavern. <\/p>\n They are then provided with a route plan and a helmet before being allowed to freely explore the three caves. <\/p>\n A series of information boards, and a free audio guide, provide customers with background details and additional information. <\/p>\n The Caverns are a cool 10C underground, so jumpers and sensible footwear are advised. <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n In addition to their status as a tourist attraction, the caves can also be hired out for weddings and other private events. <\/p>\n A series of musical performances also take place inside the cavern throughout the year. <\/p>\n The caverns can be found nestled among eight acres of woodland, with holidaymakers encouraged to enjoy an optional woodland walk at the end of their visit.<\/p>\n Attractions on the walk include a series of magical and mythical statues, as well as a maze of zigzag pathways, wildflowers, streams, and a waterfall.<\/p>\n Customers will also be able to take in a panoramic view of the nearby St Neot village on their walk.\u00a0<\/p>\n Holidaymakers have also been raving about the attraction on\u00a0TripAdvisor, where it's been awarded 4\/5 stars from more than 700 ratings. <\/p>\n One person wrote: "The caverns are amazing and the underground lake is so beautiful." <\/p>\n While another added: "The caverns are very interesting and definitely worth visiting if you're in the area. <\/p>\n "The forest walk, complete with fairies, was enjoyed by the children."<\/p>\n And a third person wrote: "A magical\u00a0idyllic place nestled in the heart of a rambling woodland.<\/p>\n "The old slate mine was definitely worth a visit, it was very atmospheric and thought provoking."<\/p>\n Entry tickets into the caverns cost \u00a310 for a full-paying adult, while tickets for children aged 16 and under cost \u00a38. <\/p>\n The UK is also home to a hidden cave made of crystals that fans call the most magical place in England. <\/p>\n Meanwhile, another 'wonderful' autumn attraction is returning to the UK \u2013 and tickets are just \u00a35.<\/p>\n<\/picture>CAVE IN <\/span><\/p>\n
