My husband and I visited the Margate cave and were amazed by this unique bit of history and mystery in the heart of the town! Beyond the striking paintings and eery wells and coves, the cave was truly brought to life by a WONDERFUL volunteer guide, Lee. He was engaging, knowledgeable, and witty. Can’t wait to visit again and say hi to our friend!

We had an incredibly enjoyable visit to Margate Caves. The weather was extremely hot, so they were a lovely cool haven and really fun to explore. Lee, one of the volunteers, was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and told us everything we wanted to know about the history of the caves. The entrance fee is very affordable and the caves can be hired out for a variety of events and activities. There is a cafe and a lovely gift shop. If you're visiting Margate I strongly recommend you visit the caves!

The caves/mine is worth the visit. Inexpensive entry and a good amount to see with lots of information about the history. Make sure you ask the volunteers as they are encyclopaedias of knowledge about the caves especially Angela who knows lots and lots of interesting details.

We, my teen son and I visited the caves in early July and really enjoyed the experience. The caves are stunning and not to mention a nice, cool place during a heatwave! Extra thank you to Lee The Volunteer who had the gift of the gab and very generously shared his knowledge about the place, history and the Thanet Giant. We learnt a lot! Make sure you grab him if he happens to be on duty!

I had a brilliant time visiting the caves yesterday. I was fortunate in that I went at a very quiet time, so had the caves to myself. My guide Angela was brilliant. Left me to wander around and explore by myself, and was there at the end to answer my questions and gave me lots of really interesting information about the caves. She really knew her stuff and delivered everything with great keenness and humor. A top guide who loves her job, many many thanks!

I have visited many caves but none were like Margate. The history is really interesting, especially as they are under houses and were forgotten about and rediscovered many years later. We talked to Angela, who was full of knowledge and interesting facts about the caves.

Learnt its unique history from the little exhibition and the lovely guide in the cave. Lots of stairs and uneven ground but safe with enough light. Had a great afternoon taking awesome photos there. Thank you!

Thoroughly enjoyed a visit here on a rainy October day. Angela the volunteer guide was very interesting. She told us numerous facts about the caves. £4.50 per adult is a bargain for the time spent there, under an hour. Lovely shop to browse around and a cafe there too.

Had such a great visit - the caves were bigger than I expected and really interesting. Angela was the staff in the cave and her knowledge was amazing - told us the history of how it started through to modern day. Had a coffee and cake afterwards in the cafe which was great. The staff were all really friendly and welcoming and a good selection. Very warm and inviting after the coolness of the caves. Will definitely come back with other family for another visit.

I walked in, and the front desk lady was friendly and informative. Once inside? Angela was a wealth of information. I learned SOOOOO much! It was the best 4.5 lbs I’ve spent in a long, long time! Check this place out!
