Cheddar Gorge Caves FULL EXPLORE
Ойын-сауық
Gough's Cave is located in Cheddar Gorge on the Mendip Hills, in Cheddar, Somerset, England. The cave is 115 m (377 ft) deep and is 3.405 km (2.12 mi) long, and contains a variety of large chambers and rock formations. It contains the Cheddar Yeo, the largest underground river system in Britain.
The initial sections of the cave, previously known as Sand Hole, were accessible prior to the 19th century. Between 1892 and 1898 a retired sea captain, Richard Cox Gough, who lived in Lion House in Cheddar, found, excavated and opened to the public further areas of the cave, up to Diamond Chamber, which is the end of the show cave today. Electric lighting was installed in the show caves in 1899.
The cave is susceptible to flooding often lasting for up to 48 hours, however in the Great Flood of 1968 the flooding lasted for three days.
The extensive flooded parts of the cave system were found and explored between 1985 and 1990

been in them when I was a kid.. my kid sister screamed the whole way round.. excellent.. also Clearwell Caverns in the Forest of Dean.. not on the stupid tour.. Was down in the forest with a friend and we came upon a hole in the ground with a tunnel at the bottom.. being brats we had a source of fire (what country kids didn't have matches and a candle in the 70's?) so we went in exploring.. after a while we popped out in a large cavern just as the "tour" came out of a hole on the other side.. they looked at us.. and we looked at them.. then we buggered off back in our hole and explored some of the side passages we had found
Hi Matthew, Thanks for the walk around the caves, The first cave was definitely the best, The second one was rubbish, I don't think it was worth £22-95 , I love the drone footage 👍👍
Bloody tunes on that Matt proper Raving too that ❤

Yeah the caves were interesting Matthew Thank you very much
A bit of hard techno is always a good start to an exploring video👍
Drone footage of the landscape was breathtaking. Absolutely beautiful. Amazing Matt. So cool loved it. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 Can't miss those trousers. 🧡🧡🧡🧡
Awesome video Matt, some spectacular formations in the first caves, thanks for showing us around, Gareth AAFW
I went to Lacock yesterday and had a hour to kill so because of your videos I went to see Rudloe Manor and other places aswell and seeing all the slope shafts knowing full well what's below. Was great to see it in person!
The rave tunes in the intro thought i was at a illegal rave in the 90s lol
I remember going to Cheddar on many occasions as a child for an outing on a Sunday and picking up pebble sweets from the sweet shop there. Great to see this explore.
The intro had me stomping my socks off! Keep up the great videos🎉❤
Prehistoric marvel.. Great vid matt.
Dylan's base jump clip FREAKED ME THE HELL OUT!! 😮🧡🧡
Thank for the tour I didn't no about that part of England
Well I've been having a horrible night no sleep high anxiety and panic attacks thank you for really taking me out of my head needed to just chill out with a channel I really enjoy
Interesting walk. Thanks Matthew! 👍👍👍👊😎
My favourite place 😍 Can't wait to watch this later!
Wow not been there for 40 years! Great video Matt 👍
Love a good cave tour matt and gang
Awsome Matt went when I was small but couldn't remember so was really good to see. Xxx👍👍👍
Last time I went around those caves was in the 70's on our way home after a day at Weston Super Mud or Mare
I Shall look forward to watching this later ! I visited these caves a few years back, fascinating and all that stored cheese 😁🧀
You're a legend.
Loving the member's content Matt! Have a great weekend! :)
These are ancient underground cities, inner earth. They dont want you shining your light up or in certain places because they dont want you seeing certain stuff I bet. Also, I feel like that guy was tailing you guys bc the cameras and youtube channels lol. How did he get so close so fast?! Great video, you guys have so much cool stuff in the UK.
£22.95 Rip off Britain love the videos keep up the great work
Aww Brilliant Matt. I loved the drone footage. I came here on a school trip loved it.
Good bit of techno Matt ..👍🏻 and another great vid .. 👍🏻😎
Great video guys
Banger drone track Matt 🎉
I haven't been there for years, beutiful place.

Oh yea, Ray and Steve i like them also! I've watched for time, usually i dont comment and am just a casual observer in the background, the intro music bro 👍👑
Wot a place great video mate
Enjoyed that video never seen cheddar gorge before never worth the price though worth about £15.00 and some discounted cheese great video though👍👍👍👍
Afternoon this should be fun
Great video Matt! Not sure if I’ve been to cheddar gorge, definitely been to wooky hole! And I agree box mine is much better 😂
Maybe I should not say but back in the day ... we used to race quick bikes up and down the gorge ... how no one ever had an accident i do not know ... skill , luck I do not know , but I would not try that any more ! At Gough's cave entrance there used to be a wooden hut for a caving club . Around 1990 , could be out be a few years here mind , I went to the cave to have a caving experience , proper caving not a tourist visit . It was great . If you can go and try proper pot holing .
Good video looks great love to see the caves without the Disney style light shows everywhere and the constant vacuum cleaner sound.
Epic intro 🤯
Some scenery.. the tunage makes me think i’m on a mission😂😂
Check out Wookey Hole, just down the road from Cheddar Gorge and also Kents Caverns in Babbacombe in Torquay... Great video
I be inside Cheddar Gorge and Caves it’s amazing
The film stuff with the second cave was so hokie and a distraction from the beauty of the cave's natural features.
I was like, so trippy wtf lol .. I haven't even smoked that much lol.
That price to enter a cave is as bad as Kent's Caven in Torquay. I quite like the drone footage of the Gorge stunning scenery.
Great video Matt 👍 thanks for sharing 👍 enjoyed this 👍 beautiful places some of these old caves look forward to seeing yr next video 👍glad they allow the public into see this! Not sure they shud charge, which I'm sure they do, and shame they block so much of it off.. anyway amazing old place and great to see, so thanks Matt 👍💖and surprised they moaned about yr lights when the place is lit up like a Christmas tree 🎄 lol 🤣and I agree Matt the whole video thing is annoying cos like u say u can watch all that when u get home, u go to these places to see the caves and the history not a film!! I didn't like all the music and voiceovers that they did too, cud see much better with yr torchlight too Matt that second cave was beautiful but u cudnt see much of it cos all those silly coloured lights, ruined it really, still enjoyed seeing both of these just better with u explaining things like u normally do, not there annoying loud music and background chat!! X
I came here because apparently these caves inspired the glittering caves in JRR Tolkiens famous series the Lord of the rings 25:25 the guide mentions it 😊
damn matt u can pull one hell of a backflip 😜na jokes aside.. nice1 👊
Nice techno beats
I remember visiting cheddar gorge about 30 years ago. Looks so much different than what I remember. Doesn't look as good now, and what happened to the massive dragon at the exit?
Holy shit thoes guys were base jumping off the gorge.😱😱
Smashing, MUSHROOMS? would be great
I been here years ago Must be a new tour, not seen it before. Matty did you go to Speedwell Cavern down the road?
.....when you weren't just taking the piss not a bad video......5 out od 10....
That woman clearly got the hots for you mate hahahahaha
Had a very nice time at the caves but would have been better if the couple with the little dog could stop it from yapping. If you cannot control them in a tourist attraction then don’t take them in !
the second cave would definitely not be better on acid
Hello Matthew what the name of the song at the beginning thanks
in joy matt wasa good but like said on end relly mest it up goin out would want be so people come back .pass that place 3 times wk not goin in there .
That Richard Gough pic looks like Albert Pike the Freemasion. Morals and Dogma
Welcome to Cheddah Gawg
I went as a kid with my parents back in the 70s and it was free.its sad how they turn it into a money maker
18:50 they look good
Feel the Bass in ya Big Toe
Shame it's so sanitized there, but I guess it makes it accessable for all.
Give us discount were KZreadrs lmao
I always wanted to go here now I have, but where was the cheese?
Honestly l, most funniest ever lol
Yeah, you're promoting their visitor centre to 50k. £23 quid is taking the piss. A tenner would have been more than ample
Those caves belong to our ancestors from hunter gatherers. We should not pay for entering. I've been but refused to pay. 🏴

The infrastructure is unnecessary and safety is overdone! 👌
I enjoyed this explore. I'm going to take the kids there to scare the Bats
22.70 they don't want much do they lol
We live just up the road in Burnham-on-Sea, and come here to walk our dogs, and go to Italian Restaurant LaRocca, just up the road! There is also a great seller of Sadoli Italian dairy ice cream(Welsh Italian Family!), who sell's 80 varieties!!! We were looking at going in these caves with our dogs, but don't now need too! First caves were good, but second was a complete waste of time(and money!). The £22.95p entry was a rip-off!!!
