Come and join us underground in the marvellous Mendips. We will foray out from our cosy caving hut base near the village of Priddy seeking adventures above and below the misty hills. There will be caving in small groups, a one day lodge hike, camp fires, singing, delicious food and excellent company. We will aim to create a resilient and caring community of all ages, whilst treading lightly above and below ground. Escape the troubles of the surface world and join the underground movement its grand down there.
