While workers elsewhere struggle in the heat, staff at two Derbyshire caverns enjoy cool conditions
Barry Jarvis, a tour guide at Peak Cavern, says he loves feeling the temperature drop
But at a popular underground tourist attraction in the Peak District, employees and visitors have been able to enjoy much cooler conditions. Barry Jarvis, a senior tour guide at Peak Cavern said: "There is a huge dip in temperature as we descend into the cave itself, which is a fabulous feeling when it's 35C on the surface."
The cavern's famous 'Devil's Staircase', leads to 13 miles of natural caves, linking with Speedwell Cavern to form the longest cave system so far discovered in Derbyshire.Temperatures stay the same all year round inside the cavern, regardless of the weather on the surface
