There is loads of myth and tales about the place from covenanters to knights templar to the hell fire club.

All in all well worth a visit.

They also have various back filled passages that need digging out if anyone is interested :thumbsup:

Nice, i'll be paying that one a visit next time I visit my mates in Edinburgh.

Are you like me in accidentally typing "family holiday destination" AND cave OR mine OR tunnel into Google before setting off ? 😞
