Going underground Cool Kents Cavern in Torquay can be a welcome destination when the sun gets too much in the summer. As Britain’s oldest known prehistoric home you can walk in the exact footsteps of Neanderthals and Ice Age beasts. Alongside the stalactites and stalagmites you can also enjoy an atmospher- ic evening of cave cinema with films inspired by The Queen of Crime herself.
