Reviews
We visited Creswell Crags on a Saturday afternoon having booked the ‘Life in the Ice Age’ tour online previously. It’s a loverly area with a lot of good walking routes to try before or after the cave tour.
The tour itself was approx 1hr long including walking to the cave from the visitor centre.
The tour was very informative and our guide Sarah was on hand to explain live in the ice age and take questions on the subject.
The cave while not being too big was decent enough to warrant the £15 per person cost (this also allows you access to the museum).
Although we didn’t use the cafe, the food looked good and the prices were ok.
All in all we enjoyed the half day we spent here.
Would highly recommend a visit, even just for the walks and nature. The history and knowledge of staff here is just a bonus. The cave tour is a must to really appreciate this historical site! Only downside for us was that the circular path was blocked off so you could only walk down one side of the water and we weren't informed beforehand. Otherwise a fabulous day out for all ages. Will be back to see The Witch Caves! (That were closed due to sleeping bars) 🦇
An amazing place to visit, book one of the tours in advance to guarantee entry into the caves that will give the full experience, although entrance to the site is free.
Apart from the archaeology the site has a very informative exhibition, and a splendid little cafe serving great coffee. The whole valley is extremely picturesque, worth visiting for a walk.
Beautiful nature in a peaceful setting - there is much history to creswell crags. The walk around the lake is on flat even pathways suitable for wheelchairs and buggies. I've been many times at different times of the year and it's always different and always beautiful. They are currently clearing some of the overgrowth on Cragg's along one side of the lake but this doesn't affect visitors. You can see spring bulbs poking their heads through the earth and there are some fabulously large log piles around and many types of birds. Ducks on the water so take some seed or bread and they will come and feed a really relaxing place great for spotting wildlife in particular birds of prey and native plants also free to enter
Thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Had a tour around one of the caves with Sarah. Very knowledgeable, witty and great with all ages of the tour participants. Cafe was nice and all the staff seemed very friendly. Lovely walk around the Crags and what a view standing at the end of the lake. Simply stunning.

"Lovely breakfast this morning. Just the right amount of everything and tasted great. HP sauce on the table is always a good sign. Latte was beautiful ..."
