Lacy’s Caves, located near the River Eden, are a series of man-made chambers carved into sandstone cliffs. Commissioned in the 18th century by Colonel Samuel Lacy, the caves are steeped in mystery and surrounded by beautiful woodland trails. The atmospheric chambers offer striking views of the river and are perfect for families or walkers seeking something unusual.
The scenic circular walk to the caves takes you through meadows, woodland, and along the riverbank. Combining history, nature, and a touch of the unexpected, Lacy’s Caves make for a fantastic off-the-beaten-path adventure.
