West Wycombe Hellfire Caves

Below the hill are the Hellfire Caves (not NT), now refurbished as a tourist attraction. Possibly of ancient origin, they were extended by Sir Francis Dashwood to embellish his estate, and extend underground for about half a mile. If you like exploring holes in the ground you should enjoy them.

West Wycombe Park, Bucks

National Trust
Visited c.2005
Extensive and attractive grounds with large lake and follies. The house interior is interesting. Note that the opening dates and hours are rather restricted. Suggested visit time 3hrs.
Village, Hill, Church, Mausoleum, and Caves (not NT) are nearby if you have a whole day.

West Wycombe Village and Hill

National Trust. Visited. C.2005 The village main street is lined with old cottages and inns of architectural interest. On top of the hill are the Dashwood Mausoleum (not NT) and the church with the golden ball on top of it (not NT). Both are well worth a visit.
