Don't tell me we're going in there. I'm afraid we are. This is the way in.
00:09
Looks terrifying. So are we nearly there?
00:17
Getting there. We've got to drop two more floors I'm afraid.
00:22
Down there? Yeah, I'd say.
00:27
It's quite slippy.
00:41
Are you sure this is the way? I think so.
00:49
So how do you bring all the fresh bedding down to deep sleep?
00:53
Just some big backpacks. Surely not this way? Yeah, I'm afraid so.
01:03
Well, this is it. Wow.
01:06
Just got to find the right key here.
01:10
That looks like a big door. Yeah, it keeps all the monsters in.
01:17
Right. Here we are. Come on in.
01:22
Wow.
01:28
This is incredible. Do you like it?
01:34
It is amazing.
01:38
You can take your helmet off now if you want to give your head a rest.
01:41
Perfect, thank you. So when you're in here you don't have to wear your helmet?
01:45
No, not if you don't want to. Come up these steps and come and have a sit down.
01:54
There we are. Thank you very much.
01:59
Right now we are sat in the bottom of a slate mine.
02:03
We are 1,375 vertical feet underground.
02:08
There's a lot of cave camps in the UK and certainly abroad
02:13
where caves and mines are so big if you want to go and explore the far reaches of them.
02:18
You have to camp down there.
02:21
Everything has been manually carried down. There's no trolley entrance anywhere.
02:27
It's been a lot of work. It's taken about four years, a bit longer actually.
02:31
But this is an adventure experience. It's a guided overnight adventure.
02:38
It's always under the guidance and control of a team of instructors.
02:43
We meet at our base on the surface.
02:46
It takes about half an hour to walk up to the mine from there
02:50
and about half an hour through the mine to get down to this point.
02:55
There's always two instructors at any one time in the chamber with them throughout the evening.
03:02
There's four log cabins here. Each log cabin has two single beds in.
03:07
So that's obviously eight guests.
03:10
We also have a grotto which is a bit posher.
03:16
That's got a double bed in it so that gives us a capacity for ten guests.
