"I visited The Cave on Queens birthday. It is a great set up, heaps of fun stuff to do and the staff were awesome. One of the younger members of my group was struggling a bit and the staff were kind, helpful, enthusiastic and encouraging. Couldn't ask for more. 100% will be going back and telling others to do the same."
